"Is this the one? Is this the man I want to marry?" That thought cannot help go through our mind when we are set up on a blind date. It was probably a friend that arranged it for you. You trust them, right? If you are not careful the blind date could turn from good to bad in a heartbeat.
We are so hopeful that the blind date will be magical that we do not even consider the possibility that something very bad could happen. At least not to us, right? It is always the infamous "other person" that those bad things happen to, but not us. That is why many times we fail to take simple proper precautions for our safety when going out on a blind date.
Do yourself a favor and take a few minutes to finish reading this article. Sometimes we just have to be reminded.
Blind dates can be great but we have all heard of one going terribly bad. We should take a women's self defense course or at the least have some self defense weapons available.
There are self defense products you can have with you all the time. You can carry a Stun Gun, Pepper Spray, Personal Alarm or a TASER.
A blind date can be a lot of fun. They are usually arranged by a friend and you respect your friend's judgement. Stop right here, make sure your friend really, really knows the person they are setting you up with. You don't want to be on the blind date and find out that your friend doesn't even know where your blind date lives.
Sometimes, whether we like it or not, we are vulnerable on a blind date. Did you remember to drive yourself and not have to depend on the blind date to take you home? Did you arrange the blind date so it is a double date with a friend? Did you carry a self defense product with you?
You might be comfortable carrying a stun gun. These days they are quite chic. They come disguised as cell phones, flashlights, even to look like a tube of lipstick! If you use one you don't have to worry about killing someone. They are non-lethal self defense weapons that incapacitate an attacker by sending a very high voltage but low amperage shock into an attacker. This will give you the time needed to run away from the situation and go look for help.
TASER International has come out with a new model, the TASER C2, that fits in the palm of your hand, comes in a variety of colors, and has great stopping power. This gives you the opportunity to escape from the situation.
A good women's self defense product is Pepper Spray. You can carry this and no one will ever know. Pepper spray is available to look like a regular pager, a writing pen, even a lipstick case. You'll be able to surprise your attacker and spray him right in the face to get the best results. As your attacker is lying on the floor writhing in pain you can run away and get out of danger.
There are many ways to protect yourself when you go on a blind date. Most women assaulted on a blind date do not consider women's self defense products until they have already been attacked. They are easily disguised and easy to use. Stun guns, TASERs, and pepper spray are the best options because they are non-lethal and they will not kill the person when you get them.
Those self defense products will help to make sure your blind date has a happy ending!
