I have my own set of safety rules for dating. And they have evolved rather drastically over the years. From getting my own drink, to sniffing it to make sure it\u2019s not spiked, I have held on to the pepper spray tighter than his hand sometimes.<\/p>\n

Call me paranoid, but whether it\u2019s someone I met online or a friend\u2019s friend, I believe in being extra cautious with strangers. For\u00a0all my girlfriends out there, here\u2019s a sneak peek in to my sacred bible of online dating safety tips.<\/p>\n

Play Sherlock:<\/strong> \u00a0Stalk him and do it well. You don\u2019t have to feel guilty, you\u2019re doing it for yourself. Look out for red flags; if the information doesn\u2019t add up, then you need to back off a bit. Remember that a background check is the key to a successful relationship.<\/p>\n

Meet in a public place:<\/strong> Fix a date in a busy place and save the secluded romantic dates for later. A restaurant near your place or the one you usually hangout at are good options too. Also, keep a friend or sibling informed about your date. They can also come and rescue you in case your prince turns out to be a frog.
\nWhat goes online, stays online:<\/strong> Let\u2019s start with a simple exercise: Google yourself and click on the Images section. You\u2019ll be amazed at the information that pops up! So when you pick a picture for the online dating website\/app, make sure it is not the one you are using on Facebook. It reduces your chances of getting stalked.
\n\u2018Add as friend\u2019 syndrome:<\/strong> As tempting as it may seem, do not share your number or share your Facebook\/Twitter and other social account details with a stranger. Unless of course he\u2019s moved out of the \u2018stranger zone\u2019.
\nThere, you go! Online dating is all about being yourself, and having fun, with a bit of caution. Good luck! \ud83d\ude42
