Date Safety

Before and during your date

• Meet in public. Choose a busy, public place for a first date — like the venues Zunlis suggests first. Don't meet at someone's home.
• Tell a friend. Share where you're going, who you're meeting, and when you expect to be done. Consider sharing your live location with someone you trust.
• Get there and back on your own. Use your own transport so you can leave whenever you want.
• Keep personal details private. Hold off on sharing your home address, workplace, or financial information until you trust someone.
• Stay in control of your drink. Watch your drink and your belongings. Drink only as much as you're comfortable with.
• Trust your instincts. If something feels off, it's okay to leave. You don't owe anyone an explanation.
• Look out for scams. Never send money, gift cards, or crypto to someone you're dating — even if the story sounds urgent.
