This man says that he uses dating apps in order to meet new women, and he recently went out on a date with a girl that he met on one of the platforms he uses.

Usually, when he goes on dates, he thinks that women are pretty liberal with their pictures, and what he means by that is they look different in real life than they do online.

His experience so far is that women tend to make themselves look better in the photos they present on their profiles, but that doesn’t always align with reality.

“When you see them for the first time they are a bit heavier than their pictures; the worst instance I had before this girl was probably 50lb heavier than her pictures,” he explained.

Normally he finds that women are slightly heavier than their photos depict, but their faces look pretty much exactly the same as in their photos.

However, when he went out on his most recent date, he was shocked to find that she was easily 100 pounds heavier than she had appeared in her photos.

He estimated that she weighed nearly 400 pounds, and the thing was, she had multiuple pictures of her entire body on the app he met her on, so he couldn’t believe how she looked in real life.

“All the girls I tend to date tend to be on the chubbier side so I have no issue dating bigger girls but even I have my limits,” he explained.

“She definitely was heavier than me and I am over 6 feet tall with a football player body type. On top of that all her pictures she had clear skin but she did not have clear skin at all, a lot of acne and bumps, not sure exactly what it was but looked nothing like her pictures even if you were to factor in the weight gain.”

“I still went through with the date the conversation was good but there was no way I would go on the second date given the deception.”

He really did want to get the heck out of there as soon as he laid eyes on her, but he just couldn’t bring himself to do something hurtful like that.

He figured that was way too much of a mean move, even if he would have been able to justify his actions. Since that catfish date, he’s been left wondering what the right thing to even do in a situation like that is.

And, he did wind up sending this girl a text message stating that he did have a nice time, but the photos she used were too deceptive for him. He ended things by saying he was not interested in going out on another date with her, but that he wished her all the best.

Right after he sent that, he noticed she had unmatched him on the app he met her on, so he’s positive she got his message yet won’t be replying back.

“I am probably going to do a video call before the first date now because I never want to be in this situation again,” he said.

“But would you guys not go through with the date in these situations?”

How would you have handled being catfished like that?
