I'm just curious with many of you being anonymous if any of you ever catfish someone?

I'm very upfront with what I look like with anyone I meet online.

What was the outcome?

No way.

There is no point and I don't like deceiving or hurting others.

I've only met one person from online. But he happened to go to my school where we had several thousand students on campus.

He seemed nice and we got along well. He was a lot like how he was online.

I've never heard of it until recently. I first thought it was putting your finger in a woman's mouth from behind and pulling like setting the hook on a fish...

Crazy me and my crazy thoughts Lol

Catfishing = Trying to con someone online. Like with a misleading OLD profile.

I've never done it, but I did have one guy I met via OLD who gave me a completely different story in person from what his profile had said... I called him on it, he stayed silent, and that was it for the coffee date. Weird.
