Best to meet them on your own ground...meaning you choose the place.

I find coffee houses are good.. cause its a short date so if he is ...less than you hoped...you have not invested too much time

Walking date is good...here in Portland there are a lot of trendy areas to walk around window shopping in retro shops and odd little places...harder to talk that way but less awkward than sitting across from a stranger

Beware of the dinner date...it can drag on and all you want to do is get the heck out but it just goes on and on and on...so save that for after you decide he's worth the time investment


you look like a smart girl but I'll say this anyway

NEVER GO TO HIS HOUSE....DAH
DON'T GET IN IS CAR......DAH
DON'T GIVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER...unless you want to have to tell someone to "stop calling me you creep." Then change your number cause that don't work with creeps.


I've been called paranoid..but I don't tell them my real name until after I've met them...I don't know.. it just gives me some distance and makes me feel safer

GOOD LUCK

Be safe out there..

Thinking when was the last time I got a hug
