Stay safe while you look for love online. Here are a few tips you’ll want to keep in mind.
Know who you’re talking to
Before you show up for that date, make sure you’ve got information on the person you’ll be spending the next hour or two with, the Independent says. One way to make sure that happens is to hire a matchmakKer in Orlando. With a dating pro to vet through your dates and set up filtered matches for you, you won’t have to worry about your safety during the date.
Tell someone
It never hurts to tell friends and family you’re going out on a date. Be sure to let them know the details. Of course, if you’re meeting with someone your matchmaker has set you up with, that’s an entirely different story. Your matchmaker makes sure to do background and security checks on anyone before setting them up with you so you won’t have to worry about meeting someone who may turn out to be psycho.
Go for a lunch date
While dates traditionally include dinner and dancing, you may want to trade dinner with lunch. Grabbing lunch together is a good way to get a gauge on each other. Plus, if it turns out to be fun, you can always meet up for dinner the next time.
Pick a neutral meeting place
This will depend on input from your matchmaker, though. A good matchmaker in Orlando will know the perfect place for your date so don’t discount her advice. Let her know what you want, the kind of mood and ambiance you’d like for the dinner and she’ll help you pick the perfect spot. In some cases, she’ll make the arrangements so you and your date will only need to turn up and enjoy yourselves for the rest of the evening.
