So I'm new to all this & have arranged my 1st social for tonight. Am I wrong in wanting it to be in a public place & not my home? From the start I've said the first meet has to be no pressure & no sex. Am I the odd one out?? |

Not the odd one out. And personally any man who doesn't want a public social raises suspicions |

No that's how it should be, never invite or even tell a stranger where you live. If possable have a friend who you can ring or gem ring you to check your ok

I would never consider inviting a stranger to my house 
For personal safety, and other considerations, you should always meet in a public place, where either party has the obligation of walking away if things don't go the way they're planned. 
I also find that it's much more relaxing as you're under far less pressure  |

I think it's the safest choice OP. You don't know this man, you wouldn't want him knowing where you live. Who knows what type of man he is until you meet him?! You did completely the right thing |

"If a guy is not happy meeting you in a public place first, you have to question the reasons why.... and then question whether its right to meet him at all."
I'd agree with that.
We always do a public social first, even if we're planning to move on to play. For women on their own I'd say it is a must. Any man pressuring you to compromise on what makes you feel safe or comfortable isn't someone we'd want to meet.

Meet, however works best for you. Stick to your guns and don't feel pressured to change, just to suit others.
Some will share your approach and some won't. No one is right or wrong as such, just different.

no, I think the majority of people would opt to meet that way, me included...it's the safest option |

I personally think it's commendable that you're opting for a public place first, that way you can gauge how the other person is and if it's going well or not.
If it goes well, you can arrange another meet, if not, you can walk away.
Imagine if you met at your home first, and god forbid it turns nasty, you're trapped. At least in a public place you can easily obtain help if it does turn a bit sour.
Thankfully these nasty scenarios are rare, but you're certainly showing you're sensible by arranging to meet in a public place first; I would happily meet a lady in a public place first if that is what she wishes.
Good luck OP, and I hope everything turns out OK for you! |

Definitely stick to your guns. If anyone is pressuring you to do something you're not comfortable with tell them to fuck off!
I prefer a social meet first in a public place and if they are not willing to do this i won't meet them. |

I'm really worried why you're asking if it's wrong?
If he doesn't want to meet socially in a public place, that would be alarm bells for me. It's easy for women to meet men on Fab, there are a lot of guys who will be happy to stick to your rules. If he doesn't like it, find the next one who does.  |

Nope your not and your 'meet' should respect your decision to have it in a public place, no pressure and no sex. If they can't respect that then they are not worth the effort. |

Are there,I tend to meet fairly sane people I can honestly say I haven't come across any weirdo's yet. Maybe it's because I speak to them for quite a while first or perhaps I just don't attract that type. |

Not sure if others have said it as haven't read all posts but :
Meet in social place.
Tell a friend you have a date.
Tell her/him where your meeting.
Give him/her a time you will call.
Tell him/her if you don't call to call you.
If you don't pick up tell her to go there ASAP.
Don't do anything your guy instinct says not to do. Guy instinct is usually right.
Don't drink too much.
Have a bloody good time and enjoy it |

Perhaps it's more a case of you've ben lucky. Everybody who gets attacked always says "I never thought it would happen to me".
There are weirdos in society. Unfortunately the lure of Internet meeting, especially on a sex orientated site often attracts them.
Every single person male or female and couples actually should be careful until trust has been earned. |

Public meeting is not for everyone and it is fine to not want one, it is preferences and it is up to each one if they want one, but yes, it is a good idea to have one to see how the other person are. |

Not wrong at all, that's what I'd expect when it's a first meet.
But most guys don't seem to be happy with a social meet only, from what my Mrs has told me, they expect a blow job at least  |

It's not a case of thinking it won't happen to me,I'm sure I am lucky. I don't meet much to be fair and I'm sure the chances of meeting some lunatic are pretty high if I met more. I realise the need to be cautious obviously but if I worried to much then as a single woman I wouldn't be on here. We all do thing's differently,I don't do any of the things you advice. |

but that happen anywhere can't it. We've all heard the horror stories,if someone is a twat then they're a twat,whether you initially meet them on here or in a pub. |

Hope it goes well. I usually go to a Costa as that way in doesn't matter if they turn up or not.
Take on board the advice given above.
Don't be afraid to tell them you don't want to meet again either. It's not always a definite that you'll get on. |

you are never wrong in making the decisions that suit you best, frankly anyone who has an issue and wont accept your choices may be best left to one side..
personal safety is paramount..
enjoy the meet.. |

Never lose the element of control in your encounters through fab; do what you feel comfortable doing. A fab meet is where two people (or more ) agree to meet each other in person; it should be done where all parties feel mutually comfortable; anyone asking you to move outside your comfort zone should be avoided. |
