Well I have never dated from the internet (didn't exsist yet last time I dated LOL) but I wanted to reinforce what DenuSeri posted.

1. Take your cell phone with you. Don't have one? Borrow one!
2. Leave the keypad unlocked for emergency use.
3. Leave the Locator on. (in case someone needs to track you down)
4. Have a regular check in with a trusted friend. AND have them call you if you are over five minutes overdue for your check in.

5. Once you have your safety net in place. RELAX and have fun.

Best of Luck!
