I was chit-chatting with Laura from MB on IM when I got a email with updated yahoo personals....I had an ad on for awhile but took it off...Anyway...
OHMYGOSH! There on my email was a guy that looked liked someone I worked with. Couldn't be...this guy is married...
Click him on anyway. Wow unbelievable resemblance...
No way, he's married.
I'm freaking out typing to Laura.
Read his profile. He has the same height...
Same pay...
This guy drives a motorcycle! So does my nice married co-worker...
Freaking out...still typing to Laura...
He signs his name...
SAME NAME!!!! OHMYGOSH!
I can't believe it!
HE'S MARRIED! IT CAN'T BE HIM! HE WAS BRAGGING ABOUT GETTING HIS WIFE FLOWERS FOR VALENTINES DAY TO ME!!!!
Isn't he worried about his pic?
I still can't believe it!
AND he says this..... Its fun to learn something new everyday! I have a good job and nice things, just nobody share it with!!
Just what the heck is his wife for!
and he says this....
. Must be open-minded and try new things.
OPEN MINDED I'D SAY!
AND he says he's a Christian...and he says he goes to Church...
AND YES, I am rambling...I am soo stunned! You would be rambling too!
Could there possibly be two guys...same first name...drives a motorcycle...looks alike...same height....makes the same amount of money....but not the same guy???
Could that happen?
I just still can't believe it. Guys, you don't know how totally shocked I am!

There are statistics out there that say a large number of personal ad posters are married. We always need to be careful.
Maybe you should buy him a copy of HN/HN.

While it is very likely that you may be correct that this guy on that website, and your co-worker may one in the same person, I would caution you to not act solely based on this man'spicture. Eyewitness testimony has turned out to be not that reliable in so many cases. But you may confirm your suspicions by calling him over (at work) to show him the picture of this dead ringer, and closely watching his reaction to the photo on the website. If he looks like his gonads suddenly were transferred over to his throat, and turned a whiter shade of pale, then I would say you got a positive match(BUSTED!!).

I asked another co-worker...it's him for sure! The height is not average...his picture is very clear. He drives a motorcycle. Just the pic alone says him...AND the signature at the end is his name and it's not a common name! He put divorced on his profile. He tells us he's happily married. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> I am so sad by this. Should I ask him about it? Is he lying to us, maybe he is not married...why would he lie to us? ANNA

A couple of suggestions come to mind. Print a copy of the personal and mail it to his BS. Take another copy to the owner of the business. Get the guy fired because if he would cheat on his wife, he would cheat on his company. He is bad for business.

Okay,
Apparently she left him and moved to another state for a year. They got divorced. They got back together, don't know if they remarried....but I think she's moved out of town again...
I've decided to stay out of it...

hmmmm...Anna, I'd still say something just in case--
At least bring it to his attention..if he is married as you've stated..it may make him think again about the ad..I mean if you've seen it maybe someone his wife works with has seen it??

SO Anna, do you always think the worst of people even though you dont know the whole story?? His wife left him so now he's ok and he's not immoral or anything, right??

Who said he was immoral to begin with? Maybe his wife left because SHE was immoral.
If he is not married, then the fact that he is posting personal ads does not make him immoral.

Thanks all for your response.
My boss says he's married. He says they have a weird relationship. I decided to stay out of it. I am not getting further involved.
41,
Thanks for your comments.
Chris is right, I never said the guy is immoral and I don't believe I ever judged through my post either way, I just wanted more information.
I don't know who is immoral. I called it as I saw it, I was just shocked since I have visited the personals and a guy I know that seemed to be a pretty decent guy and that tells everyone in the office he is married and he gave his wife flowers for Valentines day was on yahoo telling everyone he's divorced.
Whether his wife left him recently or not is unclear, but what I know for sure was that he had gave all the women in the office single roses for Vvalentines day. I said, "Thank you so much but I hope you remembered your wife as well"...He said, "I did, I have a dozen roses for her as well."
You can not get divorced in a couple of weeks in Texas.
Now, even if she left him, it is still wrong for him to go on the internet and post that he is divorced...
If he's not married, then he's lying to my boss and the office and telling us he's married when perhaps they aren't, I don't know...
The bottom line is I am staying out of it and steering clear of him because either way, he's lying to someone.
ANNA

He sure has an odd way of showing he wants everyone out of his business if that is what he is doing. He talks about his wife...when he was hired he made a point of telling my boss he was married...and he knows I go on yahoo personals. He even knows my bosses encouraged me to give personals a try. We talk about it in the office and we've even gone on yahoo personals with him there. His profile matched me and was sent to me as soon as he signed up with them. He's asking for a short, petite woman in my age range; that's all pretty much me, so surely he'd know I would get his profile sent to me. That is an odd way of someone wanting everyone in the office out of his business... None the less, I still am not going to go there, and as far as work goes, I am not discussing this further with them. Take care, ANNA
