PEOPLE SEARCH NEWS — Nov 2 — When executed properly, a background check can tell whether someone is married, real age and if they have a criminal record. Try to probe your date for specific information such as his social security number or date of birth. If you do need to obtain some additional or basic information from your date to perform your background check, there is no need to panic. Casually asking questions like, "Do you have any brothers or sisters?" or "Where are you from again…were you born there too?" If your date is hesitant to give you this type of information, you probably should look elsewhere for Mr. Right.

What do you like to do for fun? Oh, and what is your social security number?
Too funny.
Not as funny as it sounds. I am consistently amazed at the sleuthing skills of my clients. One told me last week about going to the court house and having the names of her two current dates seached to see if they were really divorced. She didn’t guite have the guts to ask to see the actual papers, but did establish that one divorce suit listed eight counts against her suitor, all of which he acknowleged in the papers. Wasn’t it just a couple of years ago when Googling your date’s name was seen as rude and intrusive? Just part of the routine now.

Pretty nice piece. You gotta do what you gotta do. Well stated.
I would have to agree with Katherine. Though mundane and often cliche, pedantic first date conversations are an interview of sorts.
Fascinating. How do you guys get connected with People Search News?
