I would be interested to hear from other female cuddlers about how you screen potential cuddlers to ensure they are actually who they say they are BEFORE you cuddle. And I'd be interested in hearing from male cuddlers about what you would be willing to do to prove you are legit.
I bring this topic to the forum because I had set up a cuddle a few months ago, and two days before we met, there were a few red flags so I asked the guy to "prove" he was who he was. Turns out he had lied to me about his name, where he worked, where he lived, his marriage status AND had sent me a fake photo. Cuddle canceled.
I also more recently had a prospective cuddle tell me he did not disclose his last name, address and/or employer because he was concerned about his privacy due to a stalking incident. I understand that it's an issue for men, as well.
So is it "overthinking" to ask someone to "prove" they are who they say? If no, what would you ask to feel comfortable? If yes, how do you feel comfortable?
