Although Christina had been chatting online and via telephone with Justin for six months, and felt that she was falling in love with him, something about their last conversation just did not seem right. Finally, after all these months, they were making plans to meet in person, and she had been so excited. She had been planning to drive eight hours on Friday after work to see him in his hometown, be introduced to his friends, and get to know him in person. Today, however, when she suggested they meet in a local coffee-house or restaurant for the first time, he had hesitated, then refused. He said he would feel more comfortable if they met in private, at his apartment or a local wooded park. Christina felt uncomfortable, and wondered if she should go through with it or not. Warning signs seemed to flash in her mind.

2. Before meeting your potential date in person, ask for references from his/her pastor, minister, job supervisor, friends, etc. Try to speak to these people in person. Make sure the person you are talking to is really who she/he say they are.
