You can never be sure about the man’s intentions. Probably he is the best guy your daughter will ever meet or he is just fooling around her. Whatever the case may be, you cannot risk your daughter’s life. Hence, always ask her to be safe and stay in public places. Ask her not to be swayed by his tactics and accompany him to a private place. Image courtesy: Getty Images
