A lot of women are scared of the online dating scene. They hear horror stories about stalkers and weirdo’s. There are important steps you should take when you think you are ready to meet someone in person that you first met online. The most important thing is to never under any circumstance meet someone for the first time in a private place. Why take the risk? It doesn't matter that you "feel" like you know and can trust them. Meet in a highly public place, like a Starbucks. One thing you can also do is bring a friend, but a good way to do this isn't necessarily to let them know you are bringing a friend. Have a friend be wherever you are going to meet up, but not with you. Say you are at Starbucks, well have a friend sit at a table, keeping an eye on you. You and the person you are meeting will be sitting at another table. Then when it is time to leave, let them leave first, and then you and your friend can walk back to your car together. This sounds all very paranoid to some people, but safety is a legitimate concern and should be taken seriously.
