online dating is not safe because the person could be lying to yo and you can get your self in a lot of danger

It will be as safe as you are cautious.
There are inherent risks with everything in life.

i don’t think it’s safe
you never know who the person on the other side is

I would never do it. GO out and meet some real people face to face. At least you know for sure in person that they are real!

I’d suppose it’s actually safer than real life dating since you can always maintain a sense of anonymity. This however can backfire since the person on the other side of the screen can pose as someone else.
should you decide to meet up in real life with someone you met online, agree on the meeting place beforehand and make sure it’s a public and crowded place. Also let a relative or friend know where you’ll be, at what time you plan to leave your house and your estimated time of return.

have you every seen those movies where the guy or girl ends up being a psycho killer or a person that they didn’t describe to be- its a crap shoot but be careful LA is a really strange place with really strange people.

its ok…but just becareful on who you talk to because there are a lot of crazy folks that frequent them sites….if you ever choose to meet anyone from any site, don’t go alone…have someone you trust go with you to play the sidelines just in case whomever you meet tend to be deranged..good luck and be safe

I agree with the first answer. Online dating is not safe at all. As you probably know, there have been many people getting hurt or even killed by online “sweeties”. Because even if you e-mail that one other person all te time, you don’t honestly know each other. So I’d say stick to cuties you know.

I met my now boyfriend of 2 yrs on yahoo personals…….I was able to get to know him before we even met for the first time……….I was where you are with the “is it safe”…..I also didn’t want to tell anybody because I thought that it was to weird. BUT it was the best thing that I ever did and ever happened to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I look at it now as meeting somebody in the bar…..the only difference is that you see the person before you talk to them………

I have been actively dating online for a number of years and have had some less than memorable experiences – I want to give you my secret weapon that I started using a little over a year ago and it has made my life wonderful.
I started doing background checks on any potential prospect of mine before I ever meet in person. The company I am having wonderful success with is – check them outm you won’t be disappointed.
