If they evade answers

If the answer to the question is evasive such as “it’s complicated,”  or “we are going to get divorced soon” or a non-committal answer like “we are separated”, it means according to  Divorce attorney Randall M. Kessler that the man is playing double with you and he is not free for a devoted relationship at all right now. Stay away from him till he gets his personal mess clear and comes without any past baggage.
