After raising a family as a single mom you'd think I'd have seen everything. But there's almost nothing as scary as getting back into the dating scene after being single for so long. And if it weren't for a certain reverse cell look up service I found just in time, I just might have found myself in a lot of trouble.
I met a guy online after posting my profile on one of the more popular dating sites. We exchanged email for a week or so and he finally suggested we talk on the phone. I insisted on calling him first because I didn't want him to know my full name and address as these things are easy to find out with a reverse phone lookup service especially with a listed phone number.
As a precaution when I called, I dialed so my home number showed the caller as "unknown." He actually seemed nice at first but as time went by there were some unusual things I'd noticed about him. By this time I'd given him my number, and we were calling each other freely. I did a search of his phone number online but wasn't able to get any results. And then something weird happened.
We were supposed to meet for dinner in town. I'd been waiting for him when my cell phone rang though I didn't recognize the number. It was my date. He apologized for being late and said he was on his way. But he sounded very strange, almost as though he was drunk. I told him I'd wait but he never showed. I was both disappointed and angry so I went home.
When I got home I did a reverse cell phone number lookup on the number he'd used to call me. I found his last name to be what he'd originally told me but his address was different. So I went a step further and checked him out at the county courthouse. I found that he'd recently been convicted of drunken driving and domestic violence. And to make matters worse, he was married! What a creep. I'm really glad he slipped up and that I had access to an excellent reverse cell phone number lookup service. It just might have saved my life!
