She Pretended To Be Another Girl On Her Dating Profile And Now She’s Falling For A Guy Who Wants To Meet Her In Real Life
An 18-year-old girl was in a committed relationship a few months ago, but regardless of the fact that she was not single, she thought it would be a good idea to download a dating app so she could check out other guys.
Although she was eager to see what else was out there, she was not eager to have someone reveal what she was doing to her boyfriend.
Having one of her friends or acquaintances find her on the dating app was a very real concern for her, so she found a solution.
Instead of using photos of herself on her dating profile, she came across a girl on Instagram who she didn’t know and borrowed her photos for her profile.
She also created a different name than her own to use on her profile, and she got to swiping on the app.
She quickly met a 21-year-old guy through the app, and she began speaking to him. Then, this guy wanted to know if he could have her phone number, and she gave it out to him under the impression that he probably wouldn’t chat with her for longer than a couple of days before dropping off.
Well, she was wrong, because their conversation continued for the next couple of weeks. During that time, she dumped her boyfriend over other unrelated issues, and she was free and clear to keep pursuing her new man.
She didn’t think there would ever be the opportunity for him to meet him in real life, since they don’t live in the same country.
That detail was another thing that gave her the confidence the continue her virtual relationship with him.

Surprisingly, the conversations she had with this guy got deep, and they revealed a lot to one another, including the interests and issues in their lives.
“None of it was forced, I am genuinely attracted to him and I know he is to me too and I didn’t fake any of my personality, he got to know actual me, but with a fake name and fake looks,” she explained.
He recently told her that he would like to meet her in real life and travel to where she is, which is giving her pause.
Obviously, she pretended to be a completely different girl in the looks department, so she isn’t who she said she was.
She knows she can’t tell this guy that she doesn’t quite feel comfortable with him yet as her reasoning behind wanting to push off meeting him in real life, but she has to come up with something.
“And I’m probably going to have to ghost him, but I feel bad that he’s coming here and I’ll just ghost him because I was silly enough to continue this fake identity until it got too much,” she said.
She’s upset that ghosting this guy seems to be her only choice, as she’s falling for him and he’s genuinely a good guy.
Do you think she should ghost him, or should she take her chances with owning up to catfishing him in the hopes he might forgive her?
