Serious intentions still require caution
A person may appear polite and compatible in messages, but trust develops gradually. Keep the purpose clear, involve a wali, relative, or trusted person, and do not move quickly to private channels merely because someone asks.
Protect high-risk information
Never share verification codes, passwords, identity documents, exact addresses, movement schedules, banking details, salary records, or private material that could be used for pressure. Share only information relevant to the current stage and with clear consent.
Check consistency, not appearance
Compare facts about work, city, family situation, previous marriage, and the stated marriage plan over time. Repeated contradictions deserve attention. Prefer organised family communication and appropriate verification over reliance on a profile image or one call.
Recognise pressure and fraud
Requests for money, urgent crisis stories, secrecy, rushed commitment, and isolation from family advice are warnings. Preserve evidence of threats, stop communication, use blocking and reporting, and seek official help when necessary rather than negotiating with intimidation.
Plan meetings safely
Choose an appropriate known place, tell a trusted person the time and location, control your own transport, and agree who attends. Leave when you feel unsafe or agreed boundaries are ignored. A serious person respects reasonable precautions.
Complete a safety review
Before meeting, confirm consistent basic information, trusted family involvement, and the absence of money requests, secrecy, or rushed pressure. Keep transport independent and share meeting details. If harassment appears, save evidence and use blocking and reporting immediately.
