Free Online Dating Safety Tips

We have all heard of horror stories from people who have been on free online dating sites. We've heard of the stalker that signs up for free online dating on dating sites all over the internet just to befriend a girl or guy on the internet and finally meet them to not only terrorize them but in the end do some terrible things to them and their families.

But free online dating shouldn't have to be dangerous - it can actually be a great and fun experience where the person you meet for a date can turn out to be harmless and actually someone you could consider spending the rest of your life with.

Below is a list of free online dating tips that you should definitely follow when your dating online. They will help you be safety and make sure to secure the safety of not only yourself while on a free dating site but also the safety of your family.

1. Really get to know the person you have been talking to on a free online dating site or any dating site for that matter, whether you are paying or not because it is proven that crazy people will go to no ends to stalk and hurt people on the internet they meet.

2. Before you meet someone that you have met on a free online dating site make sure that you actually are able to get that person's full name, address, cell phone or home phone number and even the place where they work.



3. Most importantly before you actually decide to give someone that you've decided to meet on a free dating site your phone number at least make sure that you have been talking to them for a long time. Ofcourse desire for the person you want to date takes precedence in many circumstances (that's why you've joined a free onlind dating site) but your safety is of the uttmost importance. The best and most suggested way to build trust with someone you've met on a free online dating site is to give them a phone number that they cannot trace at all. The best way to do this is to give them your cell number. That way if you decide, after following these tips that you don't want to meet this person and they turn crazy on you, you can at least change your cell phone number so they can't bother you anymore or you can feel safe knowing that although they may call again and again (they will give up trying to date you) that you can never be found.

4. Now that you've gone as far as giving the person you are considering dating that you've met on a free online dating site you should be a little sneaky. As mentioned above, find out where they live and work and give them a call there one day. That way you can determine a few more things about them and also be sure that if you start dating the person and something terrible does happen, at least you will be able to notify the authorities about where the person you're dating or want to date lives and works. They will be able to find on that peson's computer a trail of information that shows they have visited free online dating sites, not only at home but most likely at work as well.

5. Another very important point to consider when joining a free online dating site is never ever to display your personal information on your profile. Do not display your email address, do not display your telephone or cell numbers, do not display your home address nor the place where you work. A free dating site is made for your to meet people online and get to know them so before you can provide this information make sure that you do.

6. Report, report and report. It's essential that you take care to report the stalkers and harassers that are bugging you or sending messages to your free dating account. Since this is a free online dating site it doesn't take much to sign up for an account so many people take advantage of that and send tons of spammy messages. On our site we have a Report User button where you can report someone who is stalking or harassing you and we report them right away to the authorities in their area.

7. This is for the women. Women! Please, I can only say this once and be sure that I'm serious. Keep your shirts on. There are two reasons for this. One is that although you've decided you want to start dating, in the end you want to meet a man that is going to respect you and I promise you this, they won't respect you if you don't respect yourself. It is vitally important that you don't send naked pictures of yourself to strangers because if by chance they are criminals and stalkers it only feeds the fire. Respect yourself on a free dating site and you'll get the respect that a woman deserves.

8. Now this is for the men seeking woman on our free dating site. Keep your shirts on too! There are not only sick men out there seeking women, some of them are seeking men, and maybe you're gay so the same goes for you. Respect yourself and whilst your looking for someone to start a dating relationship with you can gain the respect you deserve as a man.

9. Lastly and most importantly. Try your best to choose an un-identifiable name to sign up with at a free online dating site. If you use your full name, first and last name, or even just your last name with a few extra characters in front of it you are setting yourself up for potential disaster and maybe the most important thing is to never rely on a photograph. It could be anyone on a dating site looking for someone to mess with.

We hope that this information was useful and we hope you try to live by it so you can basically be as safe as possible and enjoy your free dating site experience and not regret it at all. Happy Free Dating from FreeDateClub.com.
