While we can't advise you who to date, we can help you remain safe by identifying the kind of men you should avoid online.

Trying to get over his ex
Have you ever wondered why you felt like you struck it off with a person online, and then he abruptly stopped responding to your messages? You've most likely come across "Mr I've come to get over her." He truly feels he is ready to move on from his previous relationship, but she still has his heart.
 

Not ready to settle
Men in their late twenties to late thirties who are under pressure to settle down or commit. They generally have professions, ambitions, and hobbies, but believe it is time to find a significant person to create a family. They send messages on rare occasions and react selectively. In his opinion, no woman is worth his attention unless she conforms to his preconceived ideals of perfection and respectability.

Too good to be true
Some men's profiles may appear to be too good to be true. His profile may have some beautiful photographs, as well as some genuinely exotic locales, and so on. Before you meet them, be sure they are true. They have the potential to be liars or narcissists. Relationships require time to develop. With their relationships, players, narcissists, and sociopaths all have agendas. They frequently look intense and profound. They move quickly and get serious far too soon.
 

Mr show-off
On his dating profile, this person will have many photographs of himself and with other females. There are a lot of them. He's on a mission to prove to the world — and to you — that he can get around and is proud of it. He's unlikely to be seeking a long-term connection. And if he tells you the women in the photographs are his friends or relatives, he's probably lying.

Mr Mystery
The man who doesn't have any photographs of himself on his profile. Alternatively, his photographs are dark or hazy. He's got sunglasses and a hat on. What is he concealing? Is he a shy person? The guy might be in a relationship or married and want to cheat on his partner. Or not, but are you willing to wait to find out?
