  • Yes, first conversation

Yes, eventually, if they don't volunteer the information I ask. I reached a point where I was no longer looking for realtionship material on the first date. So, I didn't ask until I knew I liked the guy and was considering having a relationship with him, which took about a month or two. Usually, by then it had come up in conversation.

I ask "how long as your divorce been final?" as I've found that a number of men online tend to lie about being divorced when they are really only separated and still married. I usually ask this during the emailing/phone process, as I don't date separated men and so wouldn't even get to the first meeting stage.
