A first date in Xiamen

Big cities make it easy to keep a first date short and neutral. Meet at a coffee place in a busy area, and if it goes well, walk somewhere nearby instead of planning a whole evening.

  • Never send money to people you met online.
  • Report and block anyone who makes you uncomfortable.
