The
online dating world is full of fibbers. We've already determined what
men commonly lie about on their online dating profiles, but now its time to look at the
ladies....
1.
Weight: Weight is a popular one for women to lie about on their profiles. Not-so-recent photos featuring a svelte internet love interest are often what leads possible suitors to the in-person meeting, aka first date. When in reality there are a few, or more, extra pounds than expected it makes it very awkward for the person who was misled. Often, when people meet for the first time one will scope from afar to determine if they will actually go through with the date....a trick used often by those who have been burned by misleading photos before.
2.
"Natural" Beauty: Waking up next to a totally different person in the morning can be disappointing....and frightening. When the layers of make-up, fake lashes, hair pieces and
Spanx come off, it can be transforming. Unfortunately there's usually no way to really tell how natural the beauty is until after the magical first date. Hopefully her spell is strong enough to keep the man around!
3.
Age: This is common for both sexes...the lie is usually an attempt to pass as younger than they actually are. If the
date turns into a relationship eventually the true age will be found out (if the lie wasn't obvious enough to detect on the first date), so it could get real awkward down the path of love...
4.
Marital/Relationship/Family Status: This also was on the
male list of things to beware. If they drove an hour or longer to reach you, if there is evidence of kids in their vehicle, or a tan line on the ring finger these are obvious hints of their misleading status! That being said, having kids are cool, but being truthful is cooler.
5.
Similar Interests/Overly Likeable: Some women are good at being just what the the man is looking for. I call these
cameleon daters. Guys if you start dating someone that just happens to be into the same things you are and are mysteriously missing a pet peeves...prepare yourself for the real woman she is down the road...that is, if she even knows who she is yet.
