Congratulations! You’ve shown interest in an activity, connected with others who share your interests, and now you’re ready to meet in real life. Here’s how to ensure your first meetup through Tolivi is enjoyable, safe, and memorable:

1. Chat and Plan Ahead

After matching, use Tolivi’s built-in chat feature to introduce yourself. Confirm the activity details clearly:

• Exact time and meeting spot
• Any special items needed (tickets, equipment, etc.)
• Payment arrangements (Guest pays, Host pays, Split bill, or Free)

2. Be Punctual and Prepared

Arrive on time, or even a bit early. It helps ease any initial nerves and creates a positive first impression.

3. Conversation Starters and Icebreakers

Not sure how to break the ice? Here are some easy conversation starters:

• “What drew you to this activity?”
• “Have you ever done something like this before?”
• “What’s your favorite local spot for similar events?”

4. Stay Open and Approachable

Remember, everyone is there to enjoy the activity and build connections. Keep conversations light, positive, and inclusive. Encourage participation from everyone involved.

5. Prioritize Safety and Comfort

Always meet in a public, comfortable environment. Let someone know where you’re going and who you’re meeting. Trust your instincts—if something doesn’t feel right, politely excuse yourself and leave.

6. Wrap Up the Activity on a Positive Note

If you enjoyed the activity, express interest in future gatherings. Follow up later in the Tolivi chat to reinforce the connection and discuss future plans.

Quick First-Meetup Tips:

• Be Yourself: Authentic connections come from genuine interactions.
• Listen More: Showing interest in others creates a welcoming environment.
• Have Fun: Enjoy the experience and stay open-minded about new connections.

With these simple tips, your first Tolivi activity is bound to be a success. Happy meeting!
