15 indications that the man you're dating already has a girlfriend

You tell yourself that you're simply dreaming and that you're just looking for problems because you've been burnt so many times before and everything feels so good. One, you can't believe such a great guy hasn't already been taken because he is such an eligible bachelor.

Or is he dating someone else besides you, like a girlfriend? Is the man you're seeing truly single?

The idea that the guy you're gently falling for might already be seeing someone else makes you feel awful. But on the other hand, isn't it always better to be safe than sorry?

Here are a few warning indicators that may indicate that your Mr. Right is already in a relationship with another woman and that you are that other woman.

1. No response to calls

One of the most typical warning signals to look out for while searching for indications that he has a girlfriend is this. People in relationships frequently want to give each other quick phone calls to check in or say "hi," but when you do this to your guy, he doesn't pick up.

Often, guys in a relationship would only prefer to text and would only answer your call at certain times of the day, especially when he’s at work. When he’s home, he rejects your calls or even turns his phone off.

2. Where’s your phone?

Aside from the mystery of the unanswered phone calls, he is also very secretive when it comes to his phone. He keeps it hidden or out of your reach whenever he’s with you.

He doesn’t answer calls on his phone when you’re around, or when he does, he goes outside or moves to another room. He also keeps it password-protected.

3. Pseudonym

Your name is stored with a different name or some cryptic pseudonym on his phone. This alone should raise red flags.

A guy who hides your name under a different name on his phone definitely has something to hide, more specifically another woman who checks on his phone too.

4. Weekend bubble

He is never available on weekends. Whenever you ask him, he tells you he has to work on weekends or some other excuse.

You also notice that there are certain times when he is unavailable. That is one of the biggest signs he has a girlfriend.

5. Festive commotion

Even though the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and even Valentine's Day have passed, he has never celebrated any of these occasions with you. He claims he must be at work or out of town once more.

A guy who can't spend any holiday with you might be spending it somewhere else—with someone else—even if he tries to make up for it by sending you gifts.

6. Always in your spot

He consistently comes up at your door at the most random moments. The moment you offered a change, you found it to be incredibly romantic.

He provides you what you know to be a weak justification for declining your request to spend the night at his house. You then realize he never truly extended an invitation to visit.

7. Segmentalized

He has effectively cut you and your relationship off from all facets of his existence. You don't even have the chance to see him at work, and neither do any of his friends or relatives.

You start to question if he is keeping something from you or if he is actually concealing you since you feel segmented and alone.

8. Into and from

You don't spend more than three hours together even if you frequently visit one other. Additionally, he rarely stays the night at your house, giving you the impression that he simply enters and exits your life as he pleases.

He’s probably less concerned about you, but more about saving his time and energy for his real commitment, his girlfriend.

9. No family

He tells you he has no family, and won’t talk about his family or even his friends with you. This is one of the big signs he has a girlfriend.

Come to think of it, he never even introduced you to any of his family while you have already taken him to visit your whole clan.

10. Too much privacy – on dates

You like that he takes you out to these hole-in-the-wall restaurants and you enjoy the privacy in some isolated booths so you can play footsies and even sneak in a few kisses. However, you start to wonder why he keeps dating you in these places and not in more public places?

11. Wallet watch

Have you ever seen the inside of his wallet? Most guys who have a girlfriend *or wife* would have their lady’s photo in their wallet, or on their cell phones. If he’s very dodgy about showing you his, then he may be hiding something you should be alarmed about.

12.He lacks social skills.

He claims to not have a social media profile. However, you discover that he actually does have a Facebook page after doing more research. He doesn't even include your invitation to become friends, even though it is in the most private environment imaginable. He claims he doesn't use Facebook much, but you subtly note that he has the app downloaded to his phone.

13. Post no pics

You know that if it’s not on Facebook, it didn’t happen, right? So going back to social media, your guy doesn’t want you to post any of your pictures together on your own Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts. In fact, he entirely avoids being in the frame with you during a selfie break.

14. Ring-a-ling!

Of course, you will never go out with a married guy! And he came along looking single and available. You would know because he’s not wearing a ring. However, have you tried looking closely enough?

There may be a patch of paler skin on his ring finger, where a wedding band should be unless he takes it off whenever he’s with you.

Sometimes, some things are just too good to be true. And some men are just too good to be single.

If your man exhibits any of the aforementioned warning flags, you should end the relationship while you still have a lot of dignity. Additionally, dating a man who is currently involved with someone else—especially if he is married—is like asking problems.

15. The largest indication of all!

Take the proactive approach to find out for sure whether he is already taken and you are simply his side girl.

Be all over him and cover yourself in buckets of scent. Additionally, you can overdo the lipstick and kiss him all over while making sure to get some color on his clothing as well.

You can also make out with him and then give him a hickey on any part of his body, ideally his neck and chest, to increase the ante. Your cue is if he becomes tense or possibly loses control. Who cares if there isn't a woman waiting for him at home, right?

Listening to your intuition is typically one of the easiest methods to tell if a man already has a girlfriend. Use these indicators to corroborate your suspicions if you have even the slightest inkling of them.
