Coming out of the Louvre for the first time in 1971, dizzy with new love, I stood on Pont Neuf and made a pledge to myself that the art of this newly discovered world in the Old World would be my life companion
The internet has really changed our world. Almost everything can be done online these days, even something as personal as meeting your soulmate. While accessing the world through your computer is wonderful, you need to exercise a sensible amount of caution, such as the recommendations in these online dating safety tips.
• Don’t divulge too much personal information too soon. When you are chatting online to someone you’ve never met, you are dealing with a stranger. You are banking on the other person being whom they claim to be. Do not give out your address, phone number, or other pertinent information that would enable someone to find you.
• Set up an email account that you can use anonymously. One of the free ones is fine, but choose a user name that no one can associate with you, and have that name show when people receive emails or chats from you. It goes without saying that no other personal details are to show.
• If things go well with someone online and the two of you decide to meet, be sure to make the location a very public one. Make the first date a shorter one so that you have an out if you’re feeling uncomfortable.
• Even if things are going well, and you feel good about having your first date with this wonderful person you met online, do not let him or her pick you up. Get yourself to the appointed location, and take yourself home.
• If you are feeling uncomfortable, or that something isn’t right, pay attention to that feeling and end the online chat or date, or at least cease to pursue the relationship afterward.
• Fill a friend or family member in on your plans if you go out with someone you met online. Let them know what you know about your date.
• On a date, carry your cell phone and have a friend call you at a preset time to ensure you’re alright, or to give you an out should you need one.
• Don’t drink too much. Alcohol can impair your judgment and decisions.
• Use paid online dating sites, such as DatingForRichPeople.com. The free sites can be fun and give you a sense of what online dating is like, but since a credit card number isn’t given, there is no way for the site to verify identity or marital status.
Online dating is a wonderful way to meet people. Many married couples have met through online dating sites. Enjoy yourself and be safe.
Now that you have some online dating safety tips, go find your soulmate and be happy.
