Safety Guidelines

We want everyone to have a great experience and meet new people in a safe, comfortable environment.

While we do our best to create positive experiences, remember that you are meeting people you may not know well. Please use good judgment and prioritize your safety.

1. Meet in Public Places

Always meet in public locations such as cafes, parks, restaurants, community events, or other busy public spaces.

Avoid going to private homes, hotel rooms, isolated locations, or getting into someone's vehicle until you know and trust them.

2. Let Someone Know Where You Are

Before attending an event or meeting someone new, tell a trusted friend or family member:

  • Where you are going
  • Who you are meeting
  • Approximately when you expect to return

Consider checking in with them after the event.

3. Take Your Time

There is no need to rush.

Give yourself time to get to know people before moving conversations into more private settings or developing deeper relationships. Trust is built over time.

4. Trust Your Instincts

If something feels off, uncomfortable, or inconsistent, listen to that feeling.

You never owe anyone your time, attention, personal information, or an explanation for leaving a situation that makes you uncomfortable.

5. Protect Your Personal Information

Be thoughtful about what you share with people you have just met.

Consider waiting before sharing:

  • Your home address
  • Workplace details
  • Financial information
  • Sensitive personal information

Share information at a pace that feels comfortable to you.

6. Be Aware of Scams and Manipulation

Be cautious if someone:

  • Quickly asks for money
  • Talks about urgent financial problems
  • Requests investments or cryptocurrency transfers
  • Pressures you into financial decisions
  • Tries to move conversations off-platform immediately

These can be warning signs of scams.

7. Stay in Control

Arrange your own transportation whenever possible.

Make sure you can leave an event whenever you choose and avoid situations where you become dependent on someone you just met.

8. Respect Boundaries

Treat others with kindness and respect.

Everyone has different comfort levels, preferences, and boundaries. Respecting those boundaries helps create a safe and welcoming environment for everyone.

9. Report Concerns

If someone behaves in a way that makes you feel unsafe, uncomfortable, harassed, or threatened, please let us know.

Your feedback helps us maintain a positive community and improve the experience for everyone.

A Final Reminder

Most people join because they want the same thing you do: meaningful conversations, new friendships, shared experiences, and perhaps even a deeper connection.

Stay open, stay curious, have fun, and always prioritize your safety and well-being.
