Why Internet Daters Should Never Let Their Guard Down
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
The internet can be a blessing and a curse. In my opinion, one of the reasons it can be a curse is because, through the game of Internet Dating, it feeds off some people's deep rooted need to be loved. Sometimes, this desire for love leads people to make decisions that are not the wisest choice(s) pertaining to their safety. I believe that people should attempt to listen to their "inner voice" - that part people refer to as their "intuition" and/or their "gut feeling". I have always tried to listen to my sixth sense as I like to call it but sometimes I can be stubborn.
One example of a time when I took a while too long to listen to my inner voice was when a guy asked me out after work. At the time, I was working as a bartender and this guy came in every Sunday afternoon to watch the football games on the large screens and we would talk during the times when work got slow. We established a friendship over a two month period of "seeing" each other. Then, one Sunday I got off work early and he asked me to sit at the bar to watch the game and talk without my having to work.
When I got off work early one Sunday, he asked me to join him at the bar. As I sat down, my manager walked over and informed me that was against company policy, so we left to another sports bar. After the game, he suggested that we go shoot pool. I agree to this since I love to shoot pool. As we make plans, we agree to carpool and he offers to drive. I hear this familiar voice in my head saying "Danger, Will Robinson, Danger!!!" However, being that it was Sunday and I was done with work, I chose to tune the voice out.
Within a matter of minutes, we are in his car driving to a pool hall approximately a mile away. Needless to say, I was a bit baffled when he veers onto the entrance ramp for the expressway. When I ask where we're going, he informs me not to worry, that we're heading to South Beach. I am not too confident with the "don't worry" request but decide to sit back and try to relax since there's not much I can do now. Upon arrival, we discover the place has closed and I ask to be taken back to my car.
As we're getting back to my car, he exits the expressway and begins to drive in the opposite direction. The voice inside my head begins to yell: "hello? Anyone home? Where are we going?" I asked him to stop the car and let me out and when he wouldn't but, instead, began to slow down to turn down a secluded side street, I thought "okay, enough!" and threw off my seat belt, opened the door and practiced my "tuck and roll" procedure as I jumped out of the car. I ended up walking to my car while continuously apologizing to my sixth sense for not having listened to it.
