Some online liars will tip their hands quickly, but the clever ones are hard to detect. That's a good reason to take your time before meeting your cybersweetheart.


Steps:
1. Communicate with your new flame privately and on message boards and chat rooms.

2. Allow the cyber-romance to develop slowly.

3. Avoid exchanging addresses or phone numbers for the first couple of weeks.

4. Watch for exaggeration or undue evasiveness in your cybersweetheart.

5. Question your friend about his or her job, education, hobbies and family.

6. Determine whether his or her expertise matches his or her supposed background.

7. Ask more probing questions about his or her location, family, past and job after a month.

8. Exchange pictures, but send them as files attached to e-mail or use a post office box. Decide whether his or her appearance matches the self-description he or she offered you.

9. Try phone calls only after the friendship has endured a few months.

10. Verify some of his or her story by using work phone numbers if possible.

11. Call his or her workplace when he or she is not there for further verification.

12. Arrange to meet in a public place if everything checks out. If not, say, "Good bye."


Tips:
Do not check your intuition at the door as you enter cyberspace.

Take notes on the comments your partner makes during chat sessions and save his or her e-mail. Check for contradictions as the relationship proceeds.


Warnings:
Never ignore your intuition about a cybersweetheart.

People who stubbornly refuse to reveal much about themselves should not be trusted.

Don't forget that you are dealing with a stranger in a medium where it is easy to lie.

If you ask her a question today, ask her the same question but a little diferently next week or the week after, and if she adds something or leaves something out, then she is lying.

You'll figure it out...

One thing for sure... eventually... a liar always SLIPS UP.

Suggestion: Give them the benefit of the doubt... but pay attention to *everything*... If for no other reason, as it will make them feel you're listening!

if he/she is lying to you...eventually you will find out. Things will start to add up and it won't make sense.

Ask a lot of questions and you'll find out eventually.

Or...start an alter ego ID and see what he/she tells that person

You wouldn't unless you caught them in a lie. You can never trust what someone says on-line unless you know them personally.

Ask her to be honest with you. Tell her that you believe that all relationships should be based upon honesty.....and go from there.

Hope she is being true to you.
Good luck!

Eventually all lies come out. If you have a gut feeling she is, I would trust that.

Well you cannot trust what they are saying all the time, it is up to you whether or not you do.
