Meeting Someone Online...Only to Discover the Picture they Sent was a FAKEEE!!

Hi Jshean! I have no such personal experience so far.. However, if am going to meet any on line friend, I will not see him/her on the basis of his/her photograph. If I know that s/he is a nice person and we have some common interests and s/he respects me as a friend and vice versa, then his/her actual appearance won't affect me. I know I befriend a person (talking about on line friends) on the basis of their interaction with me and their characteristics and personality. Take the case of mylot friends, if am gonna meet anyone, I would meet him/her on the basis of his/her posts/discussions and responses and our interaction in this regard.

I personally think that we all want to look our best when we are meeting someone for the first time. The thing is, i pity people who go to the point of having to fake their looks just to get someone to meet with them. I also personally think that people who search for friendship and love through texting or through the net are actually the people who have difficulty finding friendship and love face to face. They fear the rejection, etc.. The only time I would consider running away is when the person i'm meeting for the first time happens to be a serial killer or rapist. But if he is none of those, i think it's humanitarian to be considerate and be nice to the person.. He/she may already be feeling sorry for himself/herself. The least you could is to be a human being to them.. Who knows, you just might be the first to make them feel human. :)

A lot of people do that , thats the good thing about Facebook most profile are real . I remember going with my friend to meet a guy and when she saw him he was so fat and nothing like he claimed. He wave to my friend and call out her name and she just say to me lets go , we bolt away .

That is really creepy and insane. I mean, what person in his right mind would use someone else's picture to post as his right? I don't think I will be able to outrightly tell him off or to tell him that I find him creepy. I would probably fake an emergency like a phone call to me or a text message that I need to go home ASAP.

Hi jshean! I would welcome any lady.as my range starts from 16 to 40.lol.it will be real shocking moment if you are waiting for someone you saw and you find completely different person.online chating often invoves these kinda things.i always keep on saying beware trusting somebody online.then also if you wanna meet somebody just go with any of your friend,just for a safeside.as you were mentioning that you might think that he could carry a weapon.lol.personally i never had any such experience.
