A very good summation of the topic Kitten,: Insightful, cautionary, which dealing with the internet is a virtue. You are yet very clear in pointing out certain flaws that exist here in line with your comment on profiles with no pics, information or otherwise anonymous. To each his own, I tend to ignore "blind" profiles as you mentioned. Good points.
Years ago I was able to organize a Naked Polar Bare Plunge here, but other than that I haven't met anyone in real life from here. It's kind of ironic that I joined this site to meet more nudists, but I meet them at the beach instead of here.
Yes I have met quite a few people from this site. But as it says in earlier comments I only meet people for the first time after chatting for a while and then in a public setting. Had a get together with some a few years back at a nudist venue and had a great time. It made a lasting friendship with a couple of them.
If she wants hangouts immediately after first chat I would be leary of her. Dont give your phone number but meet her some place that is public and make sure its only a meet and greet. If she seems legit make the next time a more private meeting.
Very good advice!
