Get to know members first before meeting them through email, instant messaging and the telephone. Be very careful when you do decide to meet someone. Don’t be a target for a gay hate crime.
Make sure the first time you meet up is in a public place. Don’t give any lifts to anyone you feel unsure about, and let your friends and family know exactly where you are going and what time to expect you home.
As well as finding romance you may also make friends and expand your social network. You can find people by area, interests and profession with gay online dating, so you know that the friends you make will at least have something in common with you.
An alternative to gay online dating is gay speed dating. These are very popular now in many major cities. You have a set amount of time to talk to each date and it’s a good idea to have some set questions in mind before you start. On average you are allowed between 5 and 10 minutes per date and that time can go very quickly so first impressions are crucial.
