Tips & Warnings
Online chat rooms may not be monitored as well as other online dating sites, especially those in which you pay a fee to join. Do not give out personal information immediately and be cautious when thinking about meeting someone. You should take a friend or meet in a well-known, busy area in case the person is being deceptive.
