Making the jump from in-app convos to meeting IRL isn’t always easy. Here are our tips for staying safe when meeting up with your match:

📍Choose a location where you feel safe. It can’t hurt to tell your friends where you are going, just in case.
🚩If someone is pressuring you, that may be a red flag.
🚨 Trust your gut if things become uncomfortable. Establish a codeword with a friend and have them fake an emergency.

🔮 Manifesting your next date is full of green flags! ✅
