I just blocked someone because i thought we were close enough to take things out of SW

I'm not saying give me your number but there's other ways of communicating.

You wanna see me irl but if i ask you for a video chat or a phone call you change the subject lol

I'm not having another repeat of 2016-2020

Good decision that has served me for decades on the Internet.

I'm referring to the phone number and contact info. And I have met many on the internet.

Must mention same goes for real names, before even contact info.

If they are not willing to give real names, they are not worth giving contact info.

Priority list:
1. Real first and last name
2. Email contact.
3. Phone contact
4. Meet up
5. Address.

In that order. Not mixed up.

5 is last in case 4 isn't successful. Possibly several times successful. You can change your phone number far easier than your address.

Call me paranoid, yet I never had cause to doubt the above either.
