How do you ensure your safety on a date?

Answer by  alanschech (256)

The first thing to do is make sure you are as comfortable as possible. Talk to the person online or on the phone until you feel comfortable meeting at all. Then, schedule your first meeting at a public place. That way, if you are nervous, there are witnesses.

If you're meeting up with someone you have only contacted online, the most obvious solution is to meet this person in a public place. Even better would be to meet them with your friends as well!
