How to know that the guy who is dating you online is married

There is so much joy when you have found a partner to settle down in marriage and start a family. A lot more people are worried of how to go about looking for a life partner owing to the fact that they are always busy, too shy or they seem not be compatible with all their friends in the inner circle.

You should not lose heart though as  online dating offers you a much free world and real possibility to meet your love online and getting that engagement ring. The internet offers some degree of anonymity and protection especially to the vulnerable. However, it increases the risk of deception by someone that may have ill intentions. Married men are sometimes using dating sites to flirt and start affairs with single women. Here is how to know if that online guy is married.

Consider using a dating site that charges

You increase your chances of meeting honest single men if you subscribe to dating sites that charge a fee. Most married men will shy away from using their credit card on a dating site. These men like the free stuff and troll on free dating sites.

Look at the personal information

Most sites ask people to create usernames rather than their real names. You might not have much luck with that. However, there are other pointers. First, most married men do not want to show their faces or post unclear photographs. Many others have limited personal information on their profiles. If you are conversing with any of the men online, ask them their last names, where they live and a little about themselves. You will notice some inconsistencies in their responses.

Search for personal information out of the dating site

Check the names given online. There is a high chance that there is a profile out there if the person is genuine. However, this might not be his true identity. Ask for his number and do a reverse lookup search. Try to see if the personal information that he gives you matches with what you find online. You may also block your telephone number or use a different number and call. The response you get will give clues if the guy is married.  

Ask the pertinent questions

Ask some well-thought questions in your conversation to prompt him to give more information on himself. Ask him about how he prepared dinner, his business-networking site, where he goes out, and what he does for a living. An honest man will give much of the general information free without much ado. A married man on the other side will not give straight information in all cases. You will notice some inconsistencies. 

Always look interested

Ask as many questions as you can but do not look as if you are interrogating him. Always look interested. As friendship grows, he will be more willing to reveal more information about himself. At some point in the conversation, he will make mistakes and give himself out. Be on the lookout for inconsistent information. Do not be in a hurry to meet with an online person after a few conversations. When you finally agree to meet, meet in a public place that you know. Let a friend know where you are. She could also come and lurk around.
