I'm not absolutely positive, but I am relatively sure, that the term "separated" when used in regards to your current relationship status actually means that you are in the process of ending your marriage. It does not simply mean that you are now located in a different vicinity from your spouse (ie: separated by a body of water). There seems to be a large proportion of transient workers in Hawaii (military, construction, rail) who are apparently lonely and would like female company. I think the general rule of thumb is:
A profile without any photograph, the term "separated", and the notation that the person is new to the island might possibly merit a red flag.
"Separated" has all sorts of negative connotations, doesn't it? For instance, why is it that you're separated and not divorced? And how long have you been separated? If it hasn't been very long there is the whole issue of rebounding, and if it has been very long...well....we're back to the first question. It's a bit of a tricky designation. As is "Never Married". I've never been married and I'm 46. I considered fibbing and saying that I was "Divorced" because honestly...I would be wondering why someone is 46 and has never been married. Is it that they just never met the right person? Are they a pain in the a** that no one wants to marry? Is it a religious thing? Are they trying to protect the fortune that they have stashed away? Or do they just not believe in marriage? In which case, do they also not believe in monogamy?
And why is it that "Never Married" when pertaining to a man is deemed rather cool and independent but when pertaining to a woman conjures up images of 14 nappy cats and a housecoat?
the question is why you haven't married, not that its a bad thing and what was the longest relationship you had?
