[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Matched on OLD with a guy who is separated and have chatted back and forth a few times. We have a ton of odd interests/hobbies in common, and he seems to be smart and interesting enough to fit with me. But the last thing I need is someone who isn't emotionally available.

How do I tactfully inquire about his status to get a clearer understanding about what his deal is? I know that for me, I was separated for at least 4 years. We had a separation agreement in place and the marriage was completely over. But neither of us felt like dealing with disentangling our finances (pensions, investments, jointly owned properties besides the house, which we'd decided would become mine and that I was still living in.)

Do I bother to meet him or just politely move on?[/quote]

Single people can be emotionally unavailable. It's not the sort of thing you can determine by category. If you're interested, and him being separated (but technically on paper married) isn't a dealbreaker for you, what's the harm in meeting him? That's how you'll be able to tell if he's emotionally available or not, same as any other date.

I was also separated for several years before divorcing on paper, but the moment we signed a separation agreement, we were done. Done done. All-the-way done.  :lol: [/quote]
