How far has life changed?   5/28/2005

I feel we are in a world that has changed in a wrong way. It seems years ago dating safety would have only meant being careful if you became active that no were brought into the world. I never had to worry of it as I was not going there anyway. <br> Now we talk of sickos and people who wish to harm or take anothers life...We many times think of our .. OK grandchildren I ...

Dating Safely On Line For Ladies   5/2/2005

Ladies, I know how excited we all get when we see someone on line and want so badly to get to know all about them. <br> I have friends who tell me how scary it is for them to do the on-line dating thing. It isn't any more scary than meeting someone in a bar, or through a friend, etc. The question I get often is "What do you talk about, how do you get to know them, where do you ...

Those Red Flags!   3/20/2005

I recently ended a cyber relationship, not from SSF, because the man in question wanted to come to town to visit me much too soon, after only one phone call, and assumed he would be invited to my home. He made sexual innuendoes which went beyond flirtatious, wanted to know if I would ever want to go out with friends instead of being with my partner, and almost seemed to be planning our ...

STALKERS, The complete article?   2/23/2005

STALKERS When you have an "unlisted" number, you pay repeated charge. Also, if someone calls information and asks for your listing, the operator will say, "that listing is non-published." That admission in itself gives a wealth of information you may not want to be "out there." (Yes, you still are in the area... yes you are trying to hide... the knowshe still has you scared.)

Thinning The Herd?   12/24/2004

I was giving this 'dating safety' thing some thought last evening. A question kept nagging me like an ex who didn't find what she wanted with the lawn care guy. <br> <br> Has humanity been dumbed down so much it cannot exercise the rudiments of common sense in enjoying some of the inherent risks and mysteries of romance? <br> <br> I really don't have a ...

Fostering Obsession with online courtship   11/6/2004

There are arguements presented that it is "safe" to spend the time to get to know the other person with extensive email, chats and phone conversations first. I'm not sold this is correct, or safe. <br> There are equal arguements that a very early meeting the other person "safely" in a very public place, so that you can not be followed back to your home or work, may avoid ...

You think you connect...then what...is he/she real?   8/21/2004

This is really a dilemna in today's world. So many people try to pass as someone they aren't for various reasons. Some are in bad marriages and want a fling. Some have agendas more attached to financial issues. It doesn't matter what the ultimate reason...what matters is our own security. Obviously all of us know that not posting a picture is a flag. There are good reasons for no ...

Ref HappyTrail35   7/9/2004

I understand what you are saying about safety and should you take a cab and keep your car hidden. It seems to me like you are really paranoid (only my opinion) about meeting someone for the first time. In these times maybe that's not a bad thing but I really do think you are carrying this a little too far. <br> For the most part the man/woman you meet will be just as cautious ...

Better safe than sorry   6/13/2004

Putting your best foot forward on a first date is usually done. However, in the case of SFF members, perhaps it is safer to walk as if your feet are walking on egg shells. Taking it slow, steady and playing it out always is the best method to develop a relationship. No one shows their frailities until you know them for awhile. I wish you all peace.

Forget the coffee shops indeed!!!   5/20/2004

Most of the old English mystery shows portrayed the villian in some dark, foggy park....lurking in search of his next unsuspecting lady. Common sense tells us that a well- it, populated shop would be far safer than an isolated area where one is neither sure of the escape route nor sure of whom she is meeting. Better safe than sorry.

Why are there so few unattached men on SFF?   3/28/2004

After reading through dozens of matches of Cupid's SFF, I have thought that my request not to be paired with MARRIED MEN is being ignored. Perhaps there are not enough single men on the site to give the volume necessary to maintain the interest of the women. My theory is "better quality over quantity" Please refine the Cupid's software to match with the single preferences together. ...

Be the tortoise, not the hare   3/20/2004

Experienced uses of chat and internet dating have learned, albeit with some mishaps, the importance of being patient, and not rushing into something. Giving out your personal email, phone number, address to someone you have just met will only endanger, not enhance your meeting with the stranger. If there is truly something positive to develop between two people, maybe we should all tread ...

Alice in Wonderland   3/20/2004

Why do some men seem like the rabbit in "Alice in Wonderland"? They are in such a hurry to meet, that they never inquire as to distance of travel, or even to get to know you before offering to meet in person. Several emails and phone conversations provide an excellent opportunity for both parties to hear things that they might like or dislike. Also, men should realize that women do not ...

That pitter patter of the heart on first talking to someone who seems interesting. The first conversation is so easy. That second phone call and you are hearing some disturbing things. Then the person says " why won't you meet me in a public place at least" The answer is; if you cannot engage in several conversations to see if there are mutual interests, etc., then what is the purpose ...

Be sensible and you will be safe.   8/17/2003

There is a lot of unnecessary concern over safety on the net as if its that much different to real life. We take precautions in reality and we need to take precautions on the net. If you don't put your details on the net for anyone to find, you will be able to surf the net without feeling exposed. There are rules for being safe in real life and they apply just the same here...you should ...
