Safe Dating Tips
Dating can be fun and exciting, but you need to keep your head on straight and be smart. Many girls become victims of assault through relationships with acquaintances. This is not meant to scare you, but help you be smart and stay safe when you’re looking to start a new relationship. Here are a few tips that can help you protect yourself while dating.
Stay with the group
If you don’t know the person well, it’s better to date in a group setting or to go on a double date with a couple you know.
Stand your ground
Don’t be tolerant of a guy who violates your personal boundaries. If he doesn’t respond when you tell him to stop, leave the situation.
Watch your beverage
Don’t accept beverages from people you don’t know and don’t drink out of any cup that isn’t marked as yours or anything you’ve left unattended. Drugs can be slipped into your drink with the intent to take advantage of you.
Trust your instincts
If you sense something isn’t right, end the date or get out of the situation.
