Hypothetically speaking for now, because I wouldn't do it, but have had offers before to meet, and not just for a coffee.

I have been befriended by Doms, and have known them for more than a year, I know what they look like and am comfortable in talking with them.

I have been offered to meet for a play session, and while the offers are appealing and tempting, I cannot do so.

That got me to thinking about safe calls, I don't know anyone well enough to ask or feel comfortable in asking.
I can't use my friends, or my family, that would raise a lot of questions that I could not answer for them.
What does one do if there is no opportunity for a safe call? Is there any other methods that one can use?
That was sort of like the situation I was in my first time and why I didn't have a call in place. Keep in mind though... a safe call can be ANYONE that you trust. My friend in Canada, who was my safe call, I never met until almost a year later. I had met her through a D/s website and we had become friends, so she was aware of the risks, etc. When I used her as a safe call, she had ALL of my information, the number of the hotel, the name of the town, local police/sheriff's number, etc.

So, if you don't feel that you can use your friends or family, is there someone from here you have spoken too and trust? The location of the "call" in my mind is not as important as their ability to notify the police in the location that you would be in if danger arose.
