Finding a Rocker Partner online gives you a wider scope of choice and you can remain at a distance until you are ready to meet.
If you’ve never tried it before or if you are worried by any stories you may have heard, here are a few tips to help you find a Rocker Partner online:
1. Trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, why take a chance. Disengage gracefully. If this does not work, just disengage.
2. Keep it real. Be as honest as you can when creating your profile. You would not want to be misled so don’t mislead anyone else. It’s also very hard to pretend you are 6’0” when you are really 5’5”!
3. Post a photo, but make sure you cannot identify your family, friends, home, or car in it.
4. Keep in control. Don’t give up any personal information too soon or post personal information without knowing exactly who you are giving it to.
Protect your identity at all times.
Avoid any talk of finances too readily. There is no reason why you should ever disclose any financial information online.
Don’t be lured by requests for financial help. If someone asks you for money even if you have built up a trusting partnership with them, they are almost certainly a scammer.
Don’t be pressured into giving any information or pictures that you don’t want to and especially into meeting someone before you are ready.
If you’re unsure, ask for a recent photo of who you are talking to.
Think about what you write in your profile and when chatting. Does it convey the right tone and intention?
Be cautious of anyone who declares their undying love for you, especially if you have never met them.
Meeting the Rocker Partner in person.
With the rush of excitement, it’s sometimes easy to forget to keep your safety in mind. You think you have met the online Rocker Partner of your dreams or maybe you’re just curious, but you’ve agreed to meet. You may be a veteran dater or maybe returning to dating after a relationship has ended but here are some quick words of advice for meeting up:
1. Don’t allow yourself to get pushed into a date and certainly don’t give over your personal contact details unless you are comfortable to do so. Never give out your home or office address unless you are totally confident that you know and can trust your Rocker Partner.
2. Avoid anyone who talks about sex or finances before you have even met them. Be wary of anyone who declares undying love for you or your pet too readily.
3. When you meet those first few Rocker Partners, choose a neutral public location that is easily accessible to you both and is within view and hearing distance of other people.
4. Tell someone that you trust who you are meeting, where you are going, and what time you plan to be there. If your plans change, don’t forget to provide an update.
5. Arrange with someone to “check in” with you at regular intervals and have a coded way of telling them how it’s going. Especially, if you need help.
6. Trust your instincts. If you think something is wrong, you should politely make an excuse and leave.
7. Never rely on your date for transport to or from your meeting place. Especially plan your journey home in case you need to leave unexpectedly. Have a cab number handy or have readily available a way to quickly get a ride if you need one.
8. If you do have to go home together in a cab, or another way are together, try to be dropped off last. But at least avoid showing your Rocker Partner exactly where you live.
9. Be careful with alcohol so that you keep your wits about you. If you think your food or drink has been tampered with then don’t consume it.
10. Make sure you have a fully charged phone with enough minutes.
Respect that your Rocker Partner may have the same concerns and don’t push them into doing anything they are not comfortable with.
