I have a lot of them. More than I care to write out here, I rarely listen to the advice and rules of the safety police. I met privatly, I played on the first date, if I so wished to, and I traveled sometimes long distances to meet them. When I was meeting and or playing with others, who were not my partner, I always had them meet me at my families house, and if and the safety police types were always horrified, because well that's just not safe. But in my opinion it's much safer than meeting in public, since here, at my home, people will see me leaving with you, will know what you look like, will know the make, model and color of your car, and they'll know where we were going. Unlike meeting in public, in a crowd of strangers. I also had the protection of being able to scream for help, since my family was always near by in the house somewhere, and if something did go wrong, I wouldn't be helpless. Which it never did go wrong. If I was to meet someone in public, nobody would notice a woman meeting a man, if you could even find any one to ask, it's very unlikely they'd say yeah he was 6 foot blond drove a white pick up truck, it was very beat up and it was a 1999 model. Also if I was stood up I had nothing to loose, I was in my home comfy and doing what ever floated my boat until he showed up. I also quite frequently approached strangers at play parties and said I was un escorted would you like to play, and had a blast. quote:
