My advice to everyone venturing into the world on online dating is to take a little time to learn some basic self-defense techniques. It doesn’t take long and it is always better to be safe than sorry.

1) If you are grabbed by the hair… Hold the attacker’s hand with both of your hands and push it onto your head. The tighter you are able to hold on, the better. Lift your elbows up and spin around. This discomfort will cause the attacker to spin around behind you and release their grip. Push the attacker’s hand and move away from them as quickly as you can.

2) If you are grabbed by your clothing… As the attacker grabs you, you need to turn their wrist joint over itself. Apply pressure with your thumbs on top of their hand, fingers wrapped underneath the palm. Twist the hand around, forcing the lock. Push the attacker’s thumb towards the ground. This will cause the attacker a great deal of discomfort and force them to the floor.

3) If you are grabbed around the shoulder’s… As soon as the attacker’s arm comes around your shoulders, move your body in underneath it. Then lift up whichever arm is nearest to the attacker and, with your other hand, grab hold of one of the attacker’s fingers. Pull it outwards and rotate your other arm forwards in a big circular motion. This movement will cause the attacker to bend forwards. The harder you push with your arm, the more the attacker will lose their balance, causing them to fall to the floor.
