Love, Dating and First Dates: Classic fraud

Classic fraud

By Anonymous - 28/04/2023 15:00 - Australia

Today, I went on a date with a guy I had been talking to online for weeks. When I showed up, he looked nothing like his profile picture, and he spent the entire time talking about his ex-girlfriend. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, the guy I was seeing texted me a photo back of myself I had sent him earlier, saying I'm such a beautiful woman, suggesting that I set it as my profile pic. Too bad he doesn't think I'm pretty enough without a lot of enhancements, because he photoshopped the hell out of that thing. FML

Cheeky

Today, I went on a blind date at a fancy restaurant. My date was running a bit late, so I went ahead and got a table. I got bored, so I decided to ask my waiter how I looked. He stood there, then said that, "It's against company policy to mock customers to their face." FML

Today, I went on my first date in months. My mum had invited friends over, and when I told them I was going out on a date, my mum said "No you're not, don't lie. Who would go out with you?" FML

How could you?

Today, while on a date with my boyfriend, he broke up with me. The reason why? Because I took a dump in his bathroom and "that's inappropriate for girls." FML

That sux. consider having them send you a picture of them in a specific pose while holding a paper with your name written on it. Then also- do a video chat.

If they show up not looking like their photo (I don’t mean older or heavier from their photo), that’s when I say “nope” and leave. If they want to start a relationship on a lie, I won’t be there for it.

The good thing about a bad date is you don’t have to see them again. If they don’t get the message - block them… In a way I feel a little sorry for the guy. He’s oblivious to the well know rule that you don’t talk about you ex on a date. And also dumb enough to not realize you don’t start a relationship based on a lie - And a lying picture is a really poor lie since that’s obvious at a glance.
