Public, lit, exit on your terms — step 1 of 6 in First Dates: Safety, Boundaries, and Leaving Well. Coffee shop, busy restaurant, museum cafe — not their apartment, not a remote hike, not a car-only pickup.

Free relationships & wellbeing tip: Public, lit, exit on your terms (step 1 of 6 from "First Dates: Safety, Boundaries, and Leaving Well").
Coffee shop, busy restaurant, museum cafe — not their apartment, not a remote hike, not a car-only pickup. You drive yourself, rideshare, or transit so you can leave when you want without negotiating keys.
Pick a place you could walk out of in two minutes. Tell your friend the name, time, and 'text me by 9.' Share live location only with that friend if you want — not on social stories.
You'll need
- Public venue chosen
- Own transport arranged
- Friend knows time and place
