Keep your private email PRIVATE! A lot of people want to join an online dating community, but not pay for the privilege of getting to know you. The safety in JOINING an online dating website is we have your REAL information. |

Please post pictures that are current and be truthful about your age. Current is a year or less. You want people to be honest with you. Give that honesty FIRST! |
|
Take your time developing your Profile. Many people tend to gloss over the narrative (hobbies, interests and activities, etc) but that is what will make you stand out from the crowd. |
|
Define the kind of relationship you are seeking. If you are looking for a companion but don't want to be married SAY SO! |
|
It would be a smart thing to have a folder where you store all email correspondence and keep track of what your potential new friend says and has said. |
|
Let the information flow but pay attention to what you divulge, and how soon you give up personal information. Your finances and or financial situation are strictly off limits. |
|
You should use a cell number as a contact number until you REALLY get to know someone well. That would be more than just one dating. SAFETY FIRST! This might seem to be a pain but think for a moment. |
|
ALWAYS meet in public in a place where there is ample parking close to the entrance. Make sure someone knows where you are and have him or her call you a few minutes after your meeting time to ensure you arrived safely. |

TAKE YOUR TIME! Online dating is fun and should be an enjoyable, safe way to meet people in your own time from the safety and comfort of your Home. Don't rush into a relationship. Let it move as slowly as you need to be comfortable. |
