I am honestly still looking for the right person. However, many dating apps don't have a forums. So I was curious to ask those who have had a successful first date.

How did you set it up? Did you use virtual software? Did you meet a mutual cafe?

What information did you exchange before your first date?

We met thru Mingle2.
We exchanged a few messages on Mingle2.
I gave her my phone number.
We talked twice and decided to meet.
We set it up to meet at the local McDonalds for lunch.
She couldn't make it.
We set up to meet at a local gas station.
We met and talked from our car windows.
She followed me home.
We talked some more and kissed.

We have been together over 3 years now and so far its pretty good. She comes over on weekends and spends the night.
We both agreed we need time apart and it has made our relationship stronger.
By Friday, we are both eager to see each other.

You are so lucky Tom4Uhere.
So wonderful story.. and you are a part of it.

Why I have not been born in the States.. there are so many wonderful people.I fell in love in their mentality..

Just do the google, be aware and be safe.

You don't have to be born there to have their mentality you just need cultivate yours and be proud of it

I met her on the M2 forums...we kinda connected . Used the message option on M2 to set up a meet and greet at the local coffee shop .. it was very exciting and extended to a real date , and another and another . We had a two year relationship.... sadly , for reasons known , it did not work out .
Never go off site to chat and set up dates . never send money and only exchange personal info after meeting in person , and if there is a mutual connection. ....
