Good connections start with feeling comfortable.
Meeting someone new should happen at your pace. Choose a setting you feel comfortable in, be thoughtful about what you share, and respect each other's boundaries.

Choose an established public venue for a first meeting.
- Make a plan you trust
Tell someone you trust where you're going, and arrange your own way home.

You can change your mind, decline an invitation, or leave whenever you need to.
Share thoughtfully
