Prefer not to say???

There are many questions on our profiles that we are asked to describe ourselves from a list of things. I don't know about you but I don't fall into a nice neat list of politically correct answers.

The one question in particular that many people seem to be hung up on is right on the first page "Marital Status". I know many people who don't fall into any of the choices given so the choose "prefer not to say".

Here is the questions when you see that on someone's profile what do you think and why?
They must be married and cheating
It really doesn't matter to me
If I am interested in the person I will ask
They just have not finished answering all the questions
They don't fit into any of the catagories
I perfer not to say LOL

I treat "prefer not to say" as "I have a partner that doesn't know that I'm on here". Maybe they aren't married, but they have some sort of significant other, and to me, that's a no-no. My wife knows I'm on here -- she has her own account, and we even have a couples account. I don't mind playing with people who have partners just as long as they aren't being deceitful about it.

When I see "prefer not to say" for marital status, to me, it means they are married, plain and simple. It could mean that they are cheating, or it could mean that while they have a "hall pass", they don't want to dissuade a potential partner from contacting them. If it's the latter, it doesn't work, where I'm concerned. We have to be honest if we're to make good choices. Lying, misleading, or being ambiguous from the outset is a huge red flag for me.

I agree that honesty is the key. I just wish they would add an other category for people who don't fall into one of the check boxes.

I respect you view but I guess I just have more faith in people sometimes to a fault.

I am at least willing to ask the question and see what kind of response I get.

Do you have any first hand experiences you would like to share??
