I feel like I’ve gotten pretty good at identifying poor/good matches, esp. on apps. So what practices do you engage in when interacting or meeting new people?

For me: - I unmatch if the messages are low effort and/or if they take a while to respond - I don’t generally give out my phone number for safety reasons and prefer to keep the chat in the apps. Good matches tend to know this etiquette - they may offer their number so that it’s up to me to message them off the apps. - I Google them 🙈 Recently found out that a match had used photos that were 5 years old and he no longer looks like his photos. Also use google to verify who they are. One guy who claimed to be the head of a large organization turned out to have very dubious info online
- I let my friends know where I’ll be while on dates
