Pay attention to how he acts. Yes, he may be telling you all the right things. However, what are his eyes doing as he is saying them? Does he check out waitresses a lot? Does he watch as women pass by him? Does he keep your dates? Does he keep his promises?

Listen to what he says. Does he brag about himself a lot? Does he say what a great catch he is and how you could do worse? Does he brag about his job, how much money he makes and how he can lavish you with material things?

See if he answers the phone or texts while he is with you. Also notice if he takes phone calls in another room where you can't hear him or skips taking some calls after checking the caller ID. If he doesn't want to take phone calls in front of you, he could be hiding something.

Notice if he seems to have a lot of exes. Does he talk about or run into many of them?
