Safe Adult Dating
At NaughtyAdultDates.com, we take as many steps we can to ensure your time with us is as
enjoyable and as safe as possible. If you've decided to have some fun and try adult dating, here are your top 10 tips for keeping it safe. Whether you decide to
correspond online or meet members offline, please use sound judgment and be
responsible for your conduct. In both the virtual and real worlds, common sense
is your best defence.
1.
Start slowly
Watch out for anyone who seems too good to be true.
Begin by communicating solely via NaughtyAdultDates.com, and look for strange behaviour or inconsistencies. Trust your
instincts if the person at the other end doesn’t seem to be who or what he or
she says they are. If anything makes you uncomfortable, don’t hesitate. Walk
away for your own safety and protection.
2. Guard your
anonymity until you’re absolutely sure
Too many people give away their personal details
before they get to know someone, but careful, thoughtful decisions generally
produce better results. Remember, it’s just the same as it is in the real
world. You wouldn’t give your mobile number, address or email address to
someone you just met in a bar, would you? Then the same thing applies here too.
Be careful, and you’ll be fine.
And whilst you’re being careful, so are we. We are
working every day, vetting the people who join NaughtyAdultDates.com, to ensure they are the genuine article and not scammers or tricksters.
In fact, with our partners Global Personals, we have one of the best track
records in the industry for eradicating scams and frauds from our site. So
you’ve got a headstart with NaughtyAdultDates.com, but make sure you take the right precautions too.
3. Use caution and
common sense
Take all the time you need to convince yourself
that the person you are talking to is a trustworthy person and pay careful
attention along the way. If you suspect someone is lying, you’re the best
judge, so best leave them to it, and get on with finding someone else. Be
responsible about romance or casual dates, just as you would in the real world.
Don't become prematurely intimate with someone, even if only online. If you
mutually decide to cross the point of no return, be smart and protect yourself.
4. Ask for a photo (or photos!)
A photo will give you a good idea of the person's
appearance, which can be helpful in forming a "gut feeling". If
possible, try to see several images of someone in various settings – not just
all naughty ones, either! If all you hear are excuses about why you can't see a
photo, consider that he or she has something to hide. Remember too, that 70% of
the members on our site have posted a photo, so there’s not a problem when it
comes to most people.
5. Chat on the phone
A phone call can reveal a lot about a person's
communication and social skills. Consider your security and don't reveal your
personal phone number to a stranger. Try a mobile phone number instead or use
141 to prevent your phone number from being transmitted. Only give out your
phone number when you feel completely comfortable..
6. Meet when you’re ready
The beauty of meeting and getting to know each
other online is that you can collect information gradually, later choosing
whether to pursue the relationship in the offline world. You are never obliged
to meet anyone, regardless of your level of intimacy. And even if you do decide
to meet, you can always change your mind. It's possible that your decision to
keep the relationship at the anonymous level is based on a hunch that you can't
logically explain. Trust yourself and go with your instincts.
7. Watch for warning signs
Pay attention to displays of anger, intense frustration or attempts to pressure
or control you. Acting in a passive-aggressive manner, making demeaning or
disrespectful comments or any physically inappropriate behaviour are all
warning signs. You should be concerned if your date exhibits any of the
following behaviour without an acceptable explanation:
- Gives
inconsistent information about age, interests, appearance, marital status,
profession, employment, etc.
- Refuses
to speak to you on the phone after establishing ongoing, adult intimacy or
fails to give direct answers to direct questions.
- Appears
significantly different in person from his or her online persona or never
introduces you to friends, colleagues or family members.
8. Meet somewhere
safe
When you choose to meet offline, always tell a
friend where you are going and when you will return. Leave your date's name and
telephone number with your friend. Never arrange for your date to pick you up
at home. Provide your own transportation, meet in a public place at a time when
there will be plenty of people around, and when the date is over, leave on your
own. A familiar restaurant or café, at a time when a lot of other people will
be present, is often a good choice. If you decide to move to another location,
take your own car. When the timing is appropriate, thank your date for getting
together and say goodbye.
9. Use extra caution
in new places
If you are arriving from another part of the
country, arrange your own transport and hotel room and don't disclose the name
of your hotel. Call your date from the hotel or meet at an agreed location. If
the location seems inappropriate or unsafe, go back to your hotel. Try to
contact your date at that location or leave a message on their answerphone.
Always make sure a friend or family member knows your plans and has your
contact information. And if possible, carry a mobile phone at all times.
10. Always have a
‘follow-on’ plan
Never do anything you feel unsure about. If you are
in any way afraid of your date, use your best judgment to diffuse the situation
and leave as quickly as possible. Excuse yourself long enough to call a friend
for advice, ask someone else at the scene for help or slip out the back door
and drive away. If you feel you're in danger, call the police; it's always
better to be safe than sorry. Never
worry or feel embarrassed about your behaviour; your safety is much more
important than one person's opinion of you. All common sense really, but we
hope these tips give you some guidance for enjoying safe dating!
