How to Stay Safe on Your First In-Person Meeting
Meeting a match for the first time? Here is how to keep it safe and comfortable.
A first meeting should be safe and relaxed for everyone. A few sensible steps make it so.
Before you go
Have a short video call first so you know the person is real. Tell your family the time and place. In many families, a first meeting includes elders — which is both safer and respectful.
Choose the right place and time
Meet in a public, familiar place during the day, such as a well-known restaurant. Arrange your own transport there and back.
During the meeting
Keep it short and comfortable, share only what you are ready to, and do not feel pressured to decide on the spot. Trust your instincts.
On Amarjibon your details stay private until you choose to share them, and profiles are verified — so by the time you meet, you already know the person is real.
