[Blindtlk] Online Dating

[justin williams]

Let's not be dating out of fear; the guy you are talking to face to face
could also do the same thing.  If she feels the need to do a background
check, then do so, but id you are that afraid, with proper procautions, you
should be fine, then you probably should not be using online dating.
 However, just be careful, (full of care), and enjoy yourself.
Justin.

Good mornibng,

At times people date the ol' fashioned waym, in person, a background check,
I'm pretty sure, doesn't happen unless there's some cause?
