Have You Thought About This?

Hello, and good day.

Welcome to another of my blog posts.

Hope all is going well with your search for that significant other --or others; I got you, Polyamorists.

Ladies and Gentlemen, let's delve right into it all.
This next topic may always be in the forefront of women's thinking. But, is it even a blip on the radar of safety for men?
The topic this time around: Safety

I am a constant thinker of scenarios and instances where the average person would have passed it up or neglected it in all thinking.
Women and men need to be aware of their surroundings, especially meeting someone new, in a new place, too.
You have no idea the person you are planning on meeting is genuinely as sweet, interesting, and appealing as you found them online.
Any person can be taken advantage of in any situation.

We may go forward with some sense of ease and security, but others around you are not going to respect your boundaries, or you as a person.

Be bold and smart, share with friends and family where you are going, who you are meeting up with, and how long you plan on being there.
Heck, include a photo of who you are meeting. This will help serve for a number of purposes, not limited to the following...
1.) It will help anyone you contacted know who it is you are going to be meeting up with. If you don't wish to disclose it is a date, or hook-up, or whatever, state that the person in the photo is someone you are meeting up with to buy something from. You could include, "If I don't call you in 20 minutes, things did not go well." Insert they should call you before panicking. You may have been too tied up to call at that moment... Literally, TIED UP. (I got you covered those that like being tied up. )
For this situation, if you have established a codeword for the instance you cannot speak honestly about you being in danger, it will prove to be invaluable. In advance --and with clear thinking and understanding from your lifeline contact-- you establish something like, "How is your cat doing after surgery?" It would be up to your lifeline contact to not mess it up with a stupid reply of, "I don't have a cat. What are you talking about?"
Your lifeline has your last known location, a photo of the person you are meeting, and a clear indicator things are not going well with the codeword or code phrase.

2.) Additionally, the photo of your intended meet-up will help you be sure of who you are meeting up with. There are people that look similar. Heck, you may be bold enough to have stated in advance, for your safety, you will be asking them to allow you to take a photo. A security measure I would think that the other person would agree to and not have any issue with. UNLESS, they MIGHT be planning something nefarious.

I will have to continue this topic in another blog post.

I wish you all the best.
Be safe out there.
Enjoy yourself.
