Yup, the show (Flipside - youth current events type show) had a senior constable on, and that was the main thing he said about safety.
I met Sparklechick through this
NZ dating site..kinda...(we were both members, but just randomly happened to turn up to a party...she was brought there by a friend of mine and I was made to get off my ass and go by someone else) and therefore, it must be good for something.
In all things, the people make the situation.
If you happen to meet people who you can get along with and form frienships with, as I was lucky enough to, (
you guys..you know who you are) then great.
Sadly, there are some people whose aim doesn't seem to be love or friendship, and bad things happen. But you get that.
Also, in saying that...the first person I met off there (not a date, just a 'meet some of the internet dating freaks' mission)...I didn't tell anyone where I was going.
*looks at morrigan*
Tho I don't *think* I was in any danger, those chinchillas were pretty scary looking. :P
