The Magic Of Online Dating.....                                   onlinedating.polash.biz

Follow your gut instincts.

Just because you've met someone online, it doesn't mean you've committed to meeting them offline. Don't ever let someone put pressure on you to meet them until you feel completely comfortable with the idea. If you feel like it's too soon or like you don't know the person well enough yet, you're probably right. Stick to your decision - if the other person is a decent person, they will be willing to wait until you're ready to meet.

Meet in a Public Place

The first meeting isn't the time to be romantic and mysterious. A public place such as a bookstore, cafe, or restaurant is much better. That way, if you want to leave early you can do so gracefully, and there is little chance that your date will try something that will make you uncomfortable with other people around.

Don't Let Your Date Pick You Up

Meet somewhere that you mutually agree on, and arrange to get there yourself, whether by driving yourself or taking a taxi. You don't want your date to pick you up on the first date for a few reasons. First, you shouldn't let them know where you live until you're sure of how you feel about them. Second, it gives too much control of the situation to them - you want to be able to leave whenever you want to on the first few dates.

Keep Your Family and Friends Informed

Don't keep your date a secret! Although you may feel a bit embarrassed at first telling people you are meeting someone through an online service, now is not the time to be shy. What if something happens to you and no one knows where you were going? Tell at least one person, preferably two, that you are meeting someone on a date. Give them his or her name and the information for the online dating service and any other information you have (photo, etc.) - just in case!
