And in that case... one day they hit 40, they look in the mirror, and realizing their fading away by themselves and have nothing to show for it aside from a huge trail of burnt bridges - that's a hell of an existential smack in the face, its really a person slapping themselves. Tragic.... and it goes completely counterclockwise to any common sense regarding ones own longterm happiness. No idea why someone would choose that route in life but oh well, just glad its not me.

I hate wasting my time, so I've done a few things to get people to prove they are who they say they are. I try to chat on the phone ASAP and then meet them in person in a public place. If we can't meet up right away, I've asked for pictures of them holding a piece of paper with my name on it and I've asked to chat via webcams. All of those are good ways to determine if someone is a 55 year old man or a 24 year old woman.

erm...thats how a lot of predators start. they ask for phone and contact right away. and most people would NOT be comfortable with that. Thats kinda creepy. A LOT of women will think you are a predator and not talk to you.

Really? Do you have any citation or reference for that?

That sounds like a good way to weed out shy girls who don't like the phone or don't want to meet someone right away without a little "e-getting to know you". What do you think the ratio of real honest girls to "players" or fakes, and does the ratio differ by gender?
I know a few people who have met online and went on to happy relationships and marriages. (my brother, on eharmony; my good NT friend, some Lutheran dating site; another old friend, on a different Lutheran dating site- and he is I might say a very very difficult match!! !! !)
That is a clever idea to request a photo with your name on it!

I don't know what the overall ratio of real to fake is, but there are certainly some contributing factors. I would bet that free sites have more fakes, and that there are more fake females than fake men.

Like I said, I hate wasting my time, so if they are too shy to move it off-line after you've already done enough chit-chat, they might still might be too shy after you spend even more time chatting with them. Obviously, you wouldn't ask for their phone number in your first message, but after you've sent a few good-sized messages back and forth or after you've chatted a few times over IM, you should move it offline or you are probably wasting your time.

No im not really that stupid... I have a dozens of regular pictures - (ones not as pretty on her profile). I ignored her she was the aggressive one. That is certain... She said those "three scary words". What gets me is how smart. She says she is doing Top Secret stuff for the government. I do the same "type of high profile work" in the government so I know what its like... However I never ever told her about this! Girls as hot as her dont really scare me as long as they are weird. I know how to handle them .

Yea thats messed up, if thats the only picture of her, or even if she has another one or two, and their all like model shots like that, NEVER believe it then. I know girls who honestly have nothing better to do, then to just mess with guys, who will make fake accounts, lure the guys in, make them want her, make her feel so important, then when it comes meeting time, she disappears! Thats when she either makes a whole new name, or she waits a couple months then comes back on hopeing the guy forgets and if not gives the guy some weird reason why she was missing or its like she never even existed its weird.

Make sure to have at least 2 normal pictures of the girl before deciding to meet up with them. I hate dating sites as well, thats why i dont bother with myspace or facebook, too many stalkers, aholes, or idiots just waiting to attack haha. You know its sad but true, but sometimes guys are very gulible when it comes to online stuff, i've seen guys do the unthinkable just to be even talking to a hot girl, its unbelievable. Anyways I'm sorry this happened to you, some people will do anything for attention its sad.

That is the type smartass comeback I've enjoyed. You are very strange... Somehow I have this eery feeling that you are watching me.

Very interesting. I believe one can uphold various values of BOTH Christianity & Objectivism if one's mind can handle it. Double jointed is really more of a laymen's term, the actual medically accepted label is ligament laxity, and I am rather impressed, that is true. I have been diagnosed with ligament laxity, although it's no bother, just fun for parlour tricks and flexibility in other "realms" of my life. I am glad to see that you admire my intelligence, Kyle. I truly hope you are doing well. We'll have to keep in touch more frequently.

Hope she's not on some Swordfish type action, it would really suck in that case if she saw this.

Click the link, and read the profile; then it'll make sense.

all i can figure... is because he looks like an indian

but i could be misinterpreting the smoke signals.

Take a look at some of the things CrotchetyOldMan has written on his profile:

CrotchetyOldMan wrote:

Ladies, ladies, ladies... I like to have fun. I want to get you in my place
and take you down to my chamber. I am a man of taste and enjoy fine dining,
the symphony, and classical literature. All my previous wives called me a man
of charm before it all came to an end. I love the thrill and find my own
game.

He definitely comes across as a little bit creepy, don't you think?

I don't think she's a scammer though... especially after kbergren21 said he had regular photos of her.
