How can I ensure my child's safety during dates?

Nothing is foolproof, and your child is a human being like anyone else: they will get hurt within dating, as you did and as you do every day. It's equipping them with the abilities to know that they will encounter these kinds of dating situations, and giving them the values, the self-esteem, the trust to be able to make the decisions to be able to navigate through all of those dating issues. That comes with good judgment and good role modeling. So again, we're back to parents who can housekeep and clean and know what they want and know how they model, because that's what their children will then go live.
