Safety-wise,
meeting on the Net is inherently similar
to meeting offline. As long
as the same standard dating precautions
are followed, cyber-savvy daters can
feel truly at ease while getting to
know each other. The main thing to remember:
trust your instincts and use common
sense just like you would offline. |

You can rest
assured that you're in the right place
AFGsingles.com goes to extra lengths
to ensure that its sites stay clean
and safe. We do our best to monitor
and block emails of anyone who uses
profanity, hustles or is not serious
about finding a relationship. We also
keep all contacts between members onsite
so your email address remains confidential.

Before you get started,
here are a few guidelines to keep in
mind. |

Helpful Hints
for Common Sense Online Dating |
| |
| • |
Remember that you are in control of
your online experience at all times. You
can remain completely anonymous until
you feel ready. |
| |
| • |
You are also in control when it comes
to taking an online relationship offline.
Plus, you have an advantage online because
you can get to know each other before
you meet. Remember that you don't need
to take anything further than the computer
or phone wires until you feel completely
at ease. Go at your own pace! |
| |
| • |
When you do decide to meet face to face,
pick a public place and provide your own
transportation to and from. Tell a friend
where you're going and check in when you
return home. |
| |
| • |
Never include your personal contact
information in your profile, especially
telephone numbers, email, home address
or your last name, and only give them
out when your instincts tell you this
is someone you can trust. It's okay to
take your time. |
| |
| • |
Set up an email account just for online
dating. |
| |
| • |
Ask a lot of questions and watch for
inconsistencies. |
| |
| • |
Stay away from members who won't take
no for an answer or pressure you for any
kind of personal information. Serious
daters will respect your space and allow
you to take your time. |
| |
| • |
Even with our strong effort to ensure
the quality of our sites, we cannot guarantee
perfection in the system. In this case,
please email us through our contact us
page and select "Technical Problem with
the site" option. |
| |
| • |
If someone asks you to go to their personal
web site or asks you for money, use common
sense not to oblige and then report the
situation to us. |
| |
| • |
If someone gives you a phone number
with a strange area code, check it out
to make sure it's not a charge number
before you make the call. |
| |
| • |
Using your own good judgment is your
best bet because ultimately you are responsible
for your personal dating experience. Trust
your instincts and then have fun with
the right people! |
