*67 blocks the number on that call only.
*68 dunno
*69 calls back the last caller
*70 blocks call waiting for that call only (can be used with *67)
*82 unblocks your number to caller ID if you have it blocked by the phone co.
The last one is good sometimes when you order food or something. Like from a pizza place.
I really can't help much other than that and a bit of common sense. From my perspective, that of a 47 year old Man who might still be able to take care of himself, I simply don't have these worries. In fact if a Woman tied me up and raped me (heterosexually) I would probably love every minute of it, any volunteers ? (jk, don't go there, remember that one incident)
Anyway, I don't see the point of going on a first meet alone. Of course generally Women are the ones who are vulnerable almost all the time. But then almost is a key word. So just bring a friend. You don't even have to hide them at another table or anything, so what, you got a friend with you. Before the meet, tell the suitor that you will be bringing a friend, their reaction can be quite telling.
My response would be something like "Good, be at ease, plus I can get an idea of the kind of company you keep". Something like that.
This is important, remember "almost". Women would be the vulnerable but what about Gays ? The sexual lines are blurred these days, but the way I see it there is always the suitor and the prospectus. One is going after the other. Even if, during the course of correspondence the desire becomes mutual, there is still one that started it, the one who initiated contact. The plain fact of the matter is that they could have been lying the whole time, just to get you in the sack, or worse.
But if you never meet anyone because of aprehension, you could bore yourself to death. There are risks in life, just be careful out there.
