Ian. I am happily married thank you.

It's my single friends and
several relatives who are running into problems meeting others who are
trying to *hide* things. Think Amber Frey. Example: One of my neighbors,
age 52 met a wonderful women online, finally got to meet her, they dated for
some months, and she moved in with him. Once in his home he starts to see
things he didn't see while dating her. He soon learns some things she was
hiding all along, and now is having a problem getting rid of her. Had he
known she was married 4 times before (by age 49), owed over $25,000 to Visa,
was in a mental hospital in another state for several years - he would never
have met her, no less got so deeply involved. A cousin met a really nice
guy, was falling in love with him, then discovers he's married and has
several children! She was devastated. I live in a rural area where it's
hard for older singles to meet a lot of people locally. Many can't afford
these "search" services. Some don't even have computers. I was thinking of
doing checks on those they meet BEFORE they get too deeply involved since I
spend so much time online anyway.
