Oh, and it ain't only females that need to play safe, every fucker does, there are just as many crazy women out there as men, I'm just not likely to meet the men, and you're not likely to meet the women. | |||

I take my time getting to know people, always meet socially and google them. One, his name turned up on the BNP supporters list, the other had won a golfing tournament and was pictured with the wife he omitted to mention. If adults need telling to be careful on a site like this, then well...!!! | |||

I backed a horse at twenty to one, it came in at half past two. " With respect it isn't quite the same, you have form to go on when selecting a horse based on placing in previous races, verifications if they exist aren't proven and as others have said lots of people can come across as credible, nice men and women for short periods of time. I do agree that you can sometimes spot warning signs and that safety measures should be in place for men and women but we'll have to agree to disagree about what the main issue is | |||

Look at the amount of people on here that complain about time wasters/fakes everyone can get tricked online | |||

Someone always knows where I am, and also i will ask someone to come with me and sit in in the place .. Not at table but somewhere in the vicinity . I did have one play with a guy at club who turned nasty ... The fist time my ex was there and he was nice as pie .. Then we arranged to meet in club without ex, he was an utter prick | |||

"Ladies....if any of you need a 'safe text' buddy just let me know and I will be happy to oblige. The real dicks in this world are worth keeping at arms length..." This is a good idea. Surely there are ladies, or cpls, in your area who you can get to know, so you can swap numbers with and use as a "safety net"? Safety should always be your number one priority, get a phone number, car make and registration and maybe even a home address before you agree to meet, explain why and any decent guy would be happy to provide the info. Sounds silly, but perhaps ask to take a pic on your phone of his driving licence, and send it to tour "text buddy", no guy will object if he's the real deal. | |||

" Take a pic of driving license I wouldn't allow anyone to do that!!! I already had 'points from driving in London, when I've NEVER driven in London, and it took forever to sort out, someone had a copy of my license and the police took it off them on a routine stop after I spent months complaining to the DVLA. So never give anyone a copy of your dl, unless you are prepared to pay their points and fines Scarlet met with these muppets in a club, so whilst there is a lot of great advice in this thread, it isn't always cut and dry | |||

"As a single woman I never meet without meeting socially first in a public place having already chatted for some time on here to get to know someone. Whilst I am very aware of the risks and take the necessary precautions to do all I can to ensure my safety, on a positive note I would like to say that I have had several meets with some amazing single guys without any trouble. If a guy is really genuine he is more likely to want to ensure your safety too and most I find are willing to provide details I ask for to pass on to a trusted friend. If they arent prepared to do so, I wouldnt meet - my safety and wellbeing are my responsibility and my priority!!!! " You are so right!! | |||

I know it wouldn't have helped poor Scarlet with that dreadful situation in the club. Similar thing happened to a female friend of mine.

"Its awful for any woman to find herself in a situation that scares her, or a guy for that matter, but surely at a club there are protocols in place to deal with events such as that? Dont play in clubs so dont know?" I prefer the club i go to regularly where single guys have to meet the owners first at the social event ... Saying that though did have some grief of a married guy who brought his " reluctant " wife who didnt want to be there and then he made beeline for single girls ... Hosts are told if anyone is disrespectful or agressive and are banned from club | |||
