1. Drink a sober drink

Coffee, tea, fruit juices are recommended over alcohol and beers. In any case, keeping a clear head helps you to evaluate him better and make good choices.

2. Go to a public place

Why go to his place, a hotel or an ulu place when there are Starbucks, coffee bean and the like which serve nice coffee for a reasonable price.

Also, in deciding on a restaurant or meeting place, pick central locations where there are lots of people around.

3. Let your good friends know

Tell a good friend that you are seeing a guy for the first time.

4. Check him out via telephone first

A phone call can shed some light on a person’s character and personality. It is worth the cost of the call to protect your safety.

5. Into the car

Singapore’s public transport is not too bad, you know...thus, there's no need to accept his offer to send you home.

7. Is he a player?

Most players are after one thing and that one thing only... yes… Intimacy, sex and such… and they want it fast! If in doubt, one way would be to delay intimacy as lots of players who play a fast game will be frustrated.
