Intimate O(pi)nions

When you find someone new online, it is a good idea to do a bit of background checking. Online it is fairly easy, of course.

Do a Google search by their name, nickname, email address or phone number. There might be a lot of people by the same name, but email addresses and phone numbers are personal and usually point to the right person. (Some exceptions apply, but you’ll be the judge.) You might not want to go over board with this one if you don’t have specific reason to be suspicions. It is a bit stalky, really, even though it is perfectly legal.

Ask if they have a blog or Facebook account Reading someone’s blog is a great way to get to know them, and if you ask them for it, it’s not like you’re stalking. If they give you the blog address without asking, don’t hesitate to check it out, because they gave it to you for a reason. If you have a blog, you can offer the address to them too, fair is fair! If you connect on Facebook, check their wall.. If it’s full of messages like “Who are you, where have we met, again?” you probably don’t want anything to do with the person really. Also if you check the friends list… I used to be bald, and even though I was married I found it really icky that a lot of men added me to their friends list because of the bald. I know that, because they had like 20 other bald women on their friends list, and that simply cannot be a coincidence! If all of his friends are hot girls, or her friends are film stars and rock stars, you know what you’re looking at.

If he is talking about his ex’s don’t get jealous, open up your ears! What, and how is he or she saying it? It is equally as bad sign if they praise their ex’s than if they blame them and are full of hate toward them. Especially if there are several ex’s that they have same feelings for. Obviously, there was something wrong in the relationship if it became an ex-relationship, but one thing is for sure; All the men or women that your new find has dated had one thing in common – your new find. It could be that he or she has messed things up all by themselves. For example, even though sometimes mothers keep their children away from their ex out of maliciousness, it is far more common for them to deny access to the child for a very good reason.
