How to Prevent yourself From Date Rape

        Ways to prevent yourself from date rape, Although a good amount of society focuses on rape where the perpetrator is unknown to the victim, more then half of rape cases involves a victim who was aquainted to their attacker previously. Rapers always plan their attacks in advance, and most definately are looking for the opportunity to assault victims. No victim nor any manual can prevent Rape , as it is soley the crime of the attacker , but there are some safety precautions that can be implied.
         Steps to prevent date rape,  1. Always have have a sober buddy with you to watch over you and make sure you get home safely. 2. Never ever turn your attention away from your drink when your at a bar or party, cause in that split second of turning your head away someone could slip a date rape drug into your drink and you wouldn't even know. 3 Don't ever mix or share your drinks with anyone, and always get your own drink. 4. Never get too drunk to not be aware of what's going on , or your surroundings, cause when your really intoxiacted most of the time you space out and forget where your at, and again that gives your attacker a shot at attacking , so always be cautious. Always limit yourself to 1 bor 2 drinks.
              Before you even go out Look online at http://www.neighrborhoodscan.com/ and there it will show you how many sex offenders live in your area in like a minute so you can be aware. Once you have lost site of your drink never consume that drink anymore, always go and get another drink. Never do you want to give out any personal information about yourself such as , your daily schedule, or your location of where you live or whether you live alone or with someone, cause that will give your attacker ideas on how they can attack you, and when the right moment would be. You definately wanna let the person you came with that your leaving and where your going so they don't worry and they can find you easily.
              If you happen to be at a hotel or even a nightclub always ask a staff if someone would be able to escort you to your vehilcle . Don't you ever be afraid to leave if your starting to feel uncomfortable where your at , if someone you just met gives off this bad vibe, you want to leave immediately. Trust your instincts always , if your starting to feel wierd or uncomfortable come up with an excuse don't try to normalize it just say your feeling sick or about to throw up, never doubt your instincts either. A very good one to follow is to never ever go out with some random stranger you met on the street. I think this for good advice for all the young females out in this world always keep a close eye out for anything strange, follow your instinc and trust it.
