Online dating safety tips on RedHotPie
|
Internet dating sites are a great avenue to meet new
people who are looking for the same things you are. Like anywhere, pubs, clubs,
parties or even just out on the street, you need to be aware of your own personal
safety and we want to help you out as much as we can when you start out your journey
into online dating. As long as you take necessary precautions this should be a safe
and enjoyable experience for yourself and those you interact with online. Below
are a few other guidelines for you to keep top of mind.
1. Always protect your privacy. When using an
adult dating site, do not give out personal information such as where you
work, where you live, or the email address you use most often. A good tip is to
create an email account specifically for online dating that way if you don't want
further chat with a certain individual they will not be harassing your online chat
or email account you regularly check. Do not let someone pressure you into revealing
any information you are not comfortable giving out. If you don't want to give out
your mobile number there is always online webcam chat.
2. Be careful when first meeting someone. Under no circumstances
should you meet them at their house or give out your address. If you are looking
for adult sex dating, a hotel is the best place to get hot and heavy. Even so, we
recommend you meet in a public place first or even take along a friend to ensure
you are extra safe. If you are not comfortable at any time then have no hesitation
in leaving. If you are having an enjoyable time though, just keep your mobile handy
and get a friend to call now and again to check in and make sure you are ok. Have
a code with your friend if you need to bail at any point. We suggest you tell a
friend that you are meeting someone for the first time and where and when you are
meeting.
3. Trust your instincts. If the warning bells are going off in
your head it's probably best to get out of the situation as quickly as possible.
You may want some intimacy but it is better to wait for a good experience than resign
yourself to the idea of having a bad one.
4. Make sure they are who they say they are. The word 'misrepresentation'
is something people can do with sex personals sites. They may use words such as
curvy when they mean overweight, in their 30s when they mean 40s and so on. If you
want to try to ensure you aren't encountering someone who is not really who or what
they say they are then have them verify who they are by either holding a sheet of
paper with their name hand written on it in a clear photo and have them email it
to you, or saying a quick hello on webcam in the RHP webcam chat rooms. There is
nothing worse than really liking someone only to find out they have been deceiving
you. (The above suggestions are no guarantee that someone is genuine and you should
make you owns judgements)
5. Beware of scammers. If a gorgeous blonde is asking for you to
check out her adult dating site or seems to be soliciting, right there you should
smell a big rat. If they are asking for money or say they need help do not reply
to the message and email the help desk directly. We will investigate it further
and you save yourself the potential hassle of getting swindled or harassed to join
another dating site.
6. Be your own mediator. We, here at RHP, do our best to ensure
that RedHotPie is a safe and friendly environment to make contact with others and
have a great dating experience. Ultimately however you are an adult and should take
personal responsibility and necessary measures to ensure your personal safety where
ever you are and whatever you do in life.
Online dating can be the best type of fun, just keep these points in mind and
you should alleviate a lot of potential problems in future. Happy dating!
