SUGAR DATING ADVICE & SAFETY TIPS  

Safe Online Dating Tips

Protect Your Privacy

Be mindful of your privacy. Avoid sharing personal details, such as your real name, ID information, phone number, address, or workplace, with strangers. Limit the number of personal photos you share, especially those that might reveal your location or private life. Also, keep your account passwords secure to prevent unauthorized access.

Beware of False Information

Some people may deliberately provide false information about their age, profession, education, or identity. They might claim to be billionaires, entrepreneurs, executives, or possess advanced degrees or prestigious backgrounds to increase their appeal and gain your trust. However, these claims often lack factual basis. Stay alert to such behavior and consider verifying their identity through video chat.

Stick to Chatting on Our Platform

Try to keep all conversations within the DubaiSugarDaddy platform as much as possible. Interactions on DSD are monitored by secure message filters and reviewed by a professional team. Scammers often attempt to move conversations to more private channels like text messages, instant messaging apps, emails, or phone calls to avoid being monitored and carry out their scams.

Be Cautious of Long-Distance Relationships

Watch out for scammers who claim to be from your country or region but are "stuck" somewhere else, especially if they ask for money to help them out. Be wary of those who are reluctant to meet in person or refuse to call/video chat. If someone avoids answering your questions or wants to jump into a serious relationship without meeting or getting to know you better, these are red flags that require extra caution.

Report Scammers and Offensive Behavior

Report any suspicious or inappropriate behavior directly through any profile page or chat window. Keep records of all harassing messages, such as screenshots or screen recordings, and provide explanations when submitting them to the team for verification and action. 

Safety Tips for Meeting in Person

Be Careful with Nighttime One-on-One Dates

While city lights can be enchanting at night, the darkness also brings hidden risks. Meeting someone one-on-one in the evening, especially in unfamiliar or secluded places, can increase safety concerns. For first dates or when you’re not well-acquainted, choose to meet during the day in public places. Let a friend or family member know your plans and expected return time, and keep your phone accessible.

Car Dates Can Be Unpredictable

The confined space of a car can make it difficult to respond to emergencies, as escaping or calling for help can be challenging. It’s best to avoid spending too much time alone in a car on dates. If you must, ensure the doors are easily opened, keep windows slightly ajar for ventilation and in case of emergency, and check if the car has safety alarms or emergency tools.

Avoid Getting Drunk

Alcohol can impair your judgment and make you more vulnerable. Staying sober or drinking in moderation during dates is one of the best ways to protect yourself and ensure you can make sound decisions. Being in control of your actions is key to keeping yourself safe.

Don’t Hesitate to Say No

Respect is essential in any relationship, including sugar daddy arrangements. If your date makes you uncomfortable or asks for something you’re not okay with, you have every right to express your boundaries. Don’t feel pressured to do anything you’re not comfortable with—saying "no" is crucial for maintaining your dignity and well-being.

Avoid Drinks from Strangers

It’s important to stay cautious, especially when accepting food or drinks from strangers. Even well-meaning gestures can carry risks, as malicious individuals might use them as a means to harm you. Stick to opening and consuming your own drinks as a basic safety rule.

Be Mindful of Shared Food

Sharing a meal is a great way to connect, but pay attention to what your date eats. If they avoid certain dishes or show strong dislike, it’s best to ask why or order your own. This can help you steer clear of food allergies or potential safety issues.

Outdoor Safety Tips

Beach Swimming

Before hitting the water, check the local tide schedules and weather forecast. Avoid swimming during high or low tides, or in bad weather. Pay attention to the beach signs and flags: red flags mean dangerous conditions and no swimming, yellow flags signal caution, and green flags indicate safe waters. Always swim in designated areas monitored by lifeguards, and never enter the water in prohibited zones.

Hiking

Plan your hike by researching the route’s difficulty, length, elevation changes, and estimated duration. Check the weather forecast beforehand to avoid hiking in adverse conditions, and consider hiking during cooler winter months. Always wear proper hiking boots, and don’t forget sunscreen and a hat for sun protection.

Preparations for an Overnight Stay in the Desert

The temperature difference between day and night in the UAE can be significant. The desert is typically hot and sunny during the day, but temperatures drop sharply at night. If you’re planning to spend the night in the desert, it's a good idea to bring warm clothing, plenty of water, snacks, and a first aid kit. 

Sun Protection

The sun in the UAE is extremely strong, especially during the summer. When spending time outdoors, it's important to wear long-sleeved clothing, apply sunscreen, wear a hat, and drink water frequently to stay hydrated.

Outdoor Sports

For high-risk activities like sand bashing, hot air ballooning, or skydiving, always choose a reputable service provider and strictly follow all safety guidelines.
