How Do You Screen Guys To Make Sure You Are In A Relationship? 10 PTS!?

Sometimes guys are looking for a "HookUp" and not a relationship. A "HookUp" can be a one night stand or friends with benefits, neither of these are relationships. Sometimes married guys pretend to be single, guys separated from their wives, think they are single, and single guys can have crazy ex-girlfriends.

Real relationships are suppose to move forward and not flat-line after 6 months. Specifically, what questions do you ask to avoid time wasters?

Update:

Observing a guy doesn't tell me whether he is a time waster, can't commit to a relationship, trying to find himself or some other nonsense. It merely lets me know how he interacts with people.

    'Hey so I'm not looking for a one-night stand. Just to be clear, if you're having an affair, separated but not divorced, or still 'not over' your last ex, then I don't wanna know.'

    Something like that usually works!

    You could get to know them by spending time with them first. You learn more about a person by paying attention to them than just asking questions which could be answered with deception.
