Online dating is normal now with more and more online dating and hookup apps emerging into the market, but don't ignore the risks of online dating! If you don't be careful, you might end up with no company and no money in your pocket. I've heard and seen so many cases about girls or guys being cheated by persons they met online dating apps. If you see through their shell games right on the spot, then you are the lucky ones. The worst circumstance is that after giving out your money and feelings, you still believe that they are real, and I've seen such circumstance as well.
Girls and guys want to find relationships or casual hookup, but also don't want to stay safe among all the scammers on these dating sites. Here are several tips for you on how to stay safe on dating apps.
In your initial "online dating" experiences, remember that you can't completely trust this person until you meet him or make several phone calls. Words is the least trust-worthy thing in the world, whether it's oral or written form.
Take time to get to know this person and never reveal private information, such as home address, job title, company address or bust size, etc, unless you want to be followed by perverts.
Giving out your phone number might bring risks. There are so many information connected to your phone number. You can't imagine what people can search and know just from a phone number, including places you went to, activities you did online, preferences, etc. Just take caution.
Get the most information about the other party as soon as possible, including age, occupation, family members and previous relationship experience, and even a few photos. Of course, you cannot guarantee that the stranger on the other side of the screen will tell you the truth. When you feel something wrong or find a contradiction, it is best to find a friend for reference or just leave immediately.
If he appears to be particularly enthusiastic about meetup, be careful. If you really want to meet him as well, just make a few calls first. Although the reason why so many people prefer online dating is that you can have a private space to communicate, when you are going to meet each other, you should choose a public place, like a restaurant, or some other places that you are familiar with. Tell your friends or family your whereabouts just in case.
Don't invite him home on the first date, and don't go to his home. This can also apply to all first dates with different people where ever you meet, not just people you know on online dating and hookup apps. It's best not to get into a stranger's car alone on the first date no matter how normal and reliable he looks. If he is a man worthy of your appreciation, he will understand you. Moreover, being reserved is also a trick to win a man's heart.
