    The last time I met up with someone who I had no prior experience with (well over a decade ago, I’m demi), my best friend insisted and then tailed me to the meet up point, and circled the parking lot with the lights off and windows down so they could hear and not be seen. Everything went fine (yay), but I have not an ounce of doubt in my mind that if things weren’t as they seemed, they’d have literally run them over at the first sign of trouble.

    Get yourself a friend that would do vehicar homicide for your safety. They are the best.

      This particular victim, unfortunately, agreed to meet at a private address.

      Meeting in public for the first one or two times would probably be a lot safer.

        Yeah, definitely. I can be a horny idiot myself but to all my other horny idiots, heed this advice! Meeting and getting a feeling of the person is really important. I have no data to back this up, but I’m positive that wanting to meet once publicly (or twice even) to break the ice will deter a lot of these people.

        You can wait a little bit and not become a statistic, y’all. Otherwise just jerk it, what’s even the point of meeting to fuck if you have 14 minutes including travel time. Now 13 because you read this.

        Also I’m biased, but talking can be imtimite, intimacy can be hot, and now huff~. It’s about the journey, not a speedrun to the destination. Now buy a vanilla bean creme frap, sit down, and pretend like you aren’t going to bust for 5 minutes meeting this guy. Good boy. Isn’t that better?

        :P

          Also, since this is pretty innocent on a date, see how long it takes them to pull away in disgust if you try to hold their hand. Because I’m guessing most homophobes wouldn’t take it that far.
