Romances Virtuales
is a Site dedicated to helping singles find new friends for love, dating,
romance, marriage, travel and other activities in a safe, friendly and fun
environment. If you decide to meet people online or off, there are some basic
safety tips you should follow for your protection.
Trust Your Intuition
It will rarely fail you. If you have a bad feeling about someone or a situation
trust those instincts. If you sense that someone is being dishonest, they most
likely are. Watch for passive language and for manipulative behavior. There are
many sincere people who are honestly interested in getting to know you.
Protect Your Privacy
The personal information included when you post a Romances Virtuales profile
on RomancesVirtuales.com is kept completely confidential. To further protect
your privacy, you may want to consider taking out an anonymous email account at
a free site such as YahooMail® when you begin getting to know new people. Take
your time to establish communication and move at your own pace. Anyone who
tries to pressure you in any way is not worth your time.
Be Cautious When Meeting
Remember, you may keep your new friendships at any level you choose- you are
never obligated to meet anyone in person. If you do decide to meet, there are
several guidelines you should follow:
Tell Someone About Your Date: Let a friend know who you are meeting, where you are going and when to expect you to return.
You may also want to consider calling and checking in with your friend at some point during your date as well as when you return home.
Arrive Separately: Always provide your own transportation throughout the entire date- especially if you choose to go to a new location.
Meet in Public: Select a public place at a time of day when there are other people around. This will provide a safe and comfortable
atmosphere for you to get to know each other better.
Keep it Short & Sweet: Make your first date an enjoyable one and plan on spending an hour or two together. Take the opportunity to get to
know each other better in a relaxed environment. And remember, this is supposed to be fun!
Sticky Situations: If you ever feel uncomfortable in any way, excuse yourself and get assistance or leave the location entirely.
Never feel embarrassed about protecting your wellbeing. Anyone who values your friendship will support your instincts 100%. Long Distance Love.
If your new friend doesn't live in the same city, and you decide to meet, there are some additional precautions you should take.
Stay in a Hotel: This will be the most comfortable situation for both of you. You may want to keep your room number
private until you have had an opportunity to spend some time together.
Give a Friend your Itinerary: Make sure someone knows exactly where you will be staying and plan on checking in periodically.
Your First Meeting: You may want to plan on checking into your hotel before meeting your friend and arrange to meet in a public place.
Chances are that if your relationship has progressed to a point where you are willing to travel to meet each other, you will have already established a certain level
of trust, however it is always best to err on the side of caution. Street Smarts. Once again, remember to trust your instincts and be wary of anything that
makes you feel uncomfortable. But most importantly, take care and have fun!
