Meeting someone from Bumble in person is exciting! Here are some smart and safe tips to help you feel confident and prepared for your first IRL meetup.
Get to know them:
Before meeting, spend time chatting on the app. Ask open-ended questions and understand their interests to get to know them. You can also use Bumble features like voice notes and video calls to help build trust before meeting face-to-face.
Use Verification:
Look for Bumble’s verification badge to confirm your match has verified their profile. If they haven’t, you can politely ask them to photo verify before meeting up.
Choose a public place:
Pick a public location for your first meeting, like a coffee shop or restaurant. Avoid private or remote places until you know the person better.
Share your plans:
Use Share Date to let a friend or family member know important information like who you're meeting, where you're going, and when.
Set expectations:
Keep it light for the first meeting—maybe just a few hours. If things go well, you can always plan something longer next time.
