Safety Guidelines
Identity and honesty come first.
Present yourself truthfully. Do not misrepresent your age, intentions, marital status, or life circumstances. If your situation is complex, say so early. Trust on Ruhu is built through clarity, not performance.
Keep early communication on the platform.
Use Ruhu’s messaging tools for initial conversations. Moving to private channels too quickly removes safeguards and accountability. If someone pressures you to leave the platform immediately, treat that as a warning sign, not a compliment.
Meet in public, neutral spaces only.
First meetings should happen in public places with people around—cafés, coworking spaces, libraries, or public venues. Do not meet in private homes, hotel rooms, or secluded locations. Inform a trusted person of where you’re going and who you’re meeting.
No financial entanglements, ever—at the start.
Do not send money, share bank details, co-sign anything, or enter joint financial arrangements early on. Anyone rushing financial dependency is not building partnership; they’re testing leverage.
Protect your personal information.
Avoid sharing your home address, workplace details, identification documents, or family contact information early. Trust grows in stages. Oversharing collapses those stages dangerously fast.
Consent applies to everything.
Consent isn’t just physical—it’s emotional, social, and practical. You are allowed to pause, say no, change your mind, or walk away without explanation. Anyone who dismisses your boundaries is disqualifying themselves.
Watch behaviour, not words.
Consistency matters more than charm. Pay attention to how someone handles disagreement, time, delays, and “no.” Patterns reveal intent far better than promises.
Report discomfort early.
If something feels off—pressure, manipulation, hostility, inconsistency—report it. You’re not “overreacting.” You’re doing quality control for yourself and the community.
Ruhu is not a rescue platform.
You are not required to fix, save, sponsor, or stabilize another user’s life. Partnerships should be mutually supportive, not one-sided survival plans.
Trust your instincts, then verify them.
Intuition is a signal, not a conclusion. Listen to it, slow down, and confirm with facts and time.
safe partnerships are built by people who are patient, transparent, and boringly respectful at the beginning. Anyone trying to fast-forward intimacy, commitment, or dependency is skipping the part that keeps everyone safe.
