I am honestly having a lot of third and fourth thoughts about this online dating thing.

Look on the bright side ... there's always me!

My son-in-law and a good friend of mine both work in the police and I always get that into the conversation in a casual way.

Can you help me with the unjust parking citation I have?

I have three sisters, 7 nieces, a step daughter and a daughter. I guess I am more sensitive to a woman's safety and comfort level than my own.

It always amazes me the level of trust a woman I have just met will place in me. I guess I have pretty non-threatening vibes.

Whether with someone you met online, or someone you met "in the wild" (at a bar, party, church -- face-to-face first meeting) what precautions do you take to ensure your safety when dating new people?
Oh, there can be a funny side to safety precautions. Of late I've occasionally gone out with a Ms J who was born in China. She's petty and intrigues me; among which are her views of safety. This initially included her going home by train as it wasn't appropriate to get in the car of a stranger. Oh, and I can't be told her last name. Except she game me her work number which has a voice mail giving such. And her address - she prefers to meet on street corner. Only this evening I deliberately parked further down road as it was raining, just so I could tease her. And don't get on "dangerous" areas. These tend to be anywhere she hasn't been. So that's where I take her. We have laughed over about her argument that is a Chinese thing. I out it down to be any eccentric scientist (which she is) And having been a lecture in chemistry with the People Liberation Army. I told you there was an intrigue element. I don't imagine any relationship ensuing. I have no ideas what she thinks about such. But it amuses me to occasionally have anattractive women on my arms.

It is a myth that only those who appear vulnerable get stalked. There are plenty of celebrities, some of them male, who can attest to that.
anyone can get stalked, but those who appear vunerable get attacked.

anyhoo.

I have my instincts, my smarts, and enough Muay Thai training to avoid or dispatch any would be dooshbags.

I've actually advised a couple friends to do just that in the past. Not only does it have the benefit of bolstering your ability to protect yourself, but it also gives you something to talk to a guy about that you can be pretty sure he'll be interested in.
