Meeting people can be full of trials and tribulations. Your safety is important to us so we've put together a few safety tips for you to think about.
Getting to know someone via the phone
With our service you can leave each other messages via your VoiceMailBox until you are ready to contact them directly.
Record a voice greeting – get the most out of our service by recording your own voice greeting this is what people will hear when they want to leave you a message. So in your voice greeting you can tell people more about who you are and what you are looking for.
Smile when you speak as you can hear it in your voice.
Leaving a message for someone? Be friendly in your message and sound enthusiastic, if you make a mistake the first time don't worry you can just re-record. (But remember, you can not re-record your message once it has been saved.)
Taking the Relationship further
Don't give out your personal details too early. – All they need is your first name until you are sure of the person. It's amazing what private details can be found with just someone's first and last name!
Meeting someone for the first time? Organise a lunch meeting in a public place, like a café or restaurant. If things go well you might like to have dinner with them too, or see a movie.
Choose carefully where you meet - If the venue is relaxed and has an easy atmosphere you are more likely to have fun.
Let a good friend know where you are going and who you are meeting with. – Being careful is being smart.
As much as we try not to judge a book by its cover, first impressions do count. So when meeting someone for the first time, have a think about the following:
You're not the only one meeting someone for the first time – so is the person meeting you.
Are you dressed to impress? – Sure it's not all about looks, but how you present yourself to the world is how the world takes you. But don't over do it!
What you project is what you attract. – Feeling a little blue today? Then before your date be sure to cheer yourself up, like attracts like so be happy and happiness will find you.
Smiles are beautiful.
Laughter is food for the soul.
Being nervous is natural. Remember, the person you're meeting will be nervous too!
