I do not know what American customs are, when you are starting to meet someone who is on the other side of the ocean, but I am Brazilian, I am suspicious, and I try to check what I can to know if what the person is talking about is true.
  Check the person through Facebook, and something scary?
Because I just did this, and the other person found it absurd.
  Nonsense I found, was to realize that perhaps what he told me in relation to him being single, is not true!
  I'm the kind of person who is of my character to be honest, and I want people to be with me in the same way.

But Brazilian man are far more duplicitous than Norte Americanos. You should be an expert at detecting married men who are looking for a beautiful mistress and discerning who the real men who are interested in a long term relationship are.

@altschmerz But she says the American is across an ocean.

Brazil is on our continent.

For me to go to the USA I have to cross a sea. Yes he is in the USA. He found it frightening to find his name on facebook, and I met him with his family in public photos, I did not ask for a friendship, I did not send a message on facebook, I got whatsapp from him, I told him that I felt cheated because he was married, that I saw the photo of his family, that I do not agree with his attitude.

@BufftonBeotch The Caribbean Sea is between the U.S. and Brazil. Being Brazilian and noting her imperfect English language skills, she may have meant "Sea" instead of "Ocean".

You should always be careful and check people out. I do it more than others know. I'm sort of like a cop or an investigator. It was back in 2004 when I used info from a website called VisaJourney to understand the paperwork involved to get people to this country. I'm sure all of that has changed drastically under Trump these days but there are steps to follow and many types of visas.

Nigerian? Prince?

That would be a NOPE

No, he's American.

@ylma "Nigerian Prince" in American slang is a conman who promises great riches in return for some investment on your part. You are both right of course, people who keep secrets have a reason.

@ylma Across thie Ocean? Where is this American then?

Sounds reasonable

If they don't even want you to have their Facebook information then that's a giant red flag. I would be very cautious.

Adding people on Facebook is like a handshake to most people these days.
