So, you want to know the truth about internet dating? Here it is: You will meet literally thousands of liars and game players! However, if you approach it the right way, you can find more than your share of eligible singles.
I learned the truth about internet dating the hard way. When I first began “meeting” men online, I was naïve. This is the way I thought internet dating worked:
1. Find an online dating site.
2. Communicate with different gentlemen until I narrowed my choices down to one.
3. If the “feelings” were mutual, I would focus my attention on getting to know everything possible, about this person.
4. Eventually, the next step would be to meet face to face.
Am I right?
This is where I’m thoroughly confused: If the intent was to meet, why would either of us lie? Not just lie in general, but to lie about obvious things! In the beginning, it’s not too hard to lie about education, occupation, financial worth, standing in the community, etc.
But it is absolutely impossible to lie about nationality, height, weight, and age range. I can honestly tell you, that I have personally met men that were 6’2” online but were 5’8”
in person. Or someone that bragged about their “athletic” physic online, and appeared to be hiding a beach ball under their shirt in person.
Does that make me shallow? I don’t believe so. We are all visual creatures, and we have a right to decide what we find attractive. Another side to the coin is this: if a person lies about their physical appearance, they don’t accept how they look and who they are. Then how can they expect me to accept how they look and who they are?
Well, I hope this information has been helpful and that you will take the time to find more truth about internet dating.
