Quick safety checklist

Before meeting anyone from a dating site:

• Video call first.
• Meet in a public place.
• Tell a friend where you’re going.
• Watch for love bombing, pressure, or requests for money (major red flag).

What are you looking for—serious relationship, casual dating, or just meeting new people? That changes the best recommendation a lot.
