Cutiepie1976 Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Never have done this. Always a full-blown date. This example is about being smart and going some place public when dating a complete stranger. I've had ladies invite me to their apartments/houses on the first or second dates, not smart. I remind them that we have just met. Lucky for them I'm not a whacko! Nor I. Coffee was never offered as an option. All my first dates when I did OLD were "real" dates. No one whacked me over the head or mugged me in a restaurant. One guy did offer to take me sailing with dinner on his sailboat for our first date when he found out I also sail. Riiiight! Ocean, nightfall,...not happening with a complete stranger! We had dinner in a restaurant, just like everyone else. Saved sailing for a subsequent date.
Ami1uwant Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 A male acquaintance of mine made the mistake of meeting a woman he met on EH, at a desolate camp site. Turned out to be a total set up....he gets jumped by three guys and they take his watch and wallet at gunpoint. Just cuz we're men doesn't mean we are not vulnerable guys. Always meet at a public place, let someone you know where you are at, and be careful about how much personal info you give out to strangers. I know I am stating the obvious, but I just want all my fellow Loveshackers men and women to have fun but be safe and be cautious. Lots of bad people out there.....Any other tips i left out please post. Not to be cruel---but he gets what he deserves..... The cardinal rules whenever meeting someone for the first time is to meet them at a neutral site that is well lit and full of people. You dont go to the others home... you dont do activities where you are totally alone like going on a country drive or a hiking trip
