Dear Queenie,
A guy I was chatting with online sent me a photo of himself that looked very good, but when I finally met him in person he was much fatter, was wearing glasses, had acne and needed a haircut.
Queenie, why do people lie so much on the Internet?—Deceived
Dear Deceived,
And when you posted a photo of yourself, were you wearing makeup, were wearing your “Sunday best” (or maybe as little as possible?) and probably had just come from the beauty salon.
Most people try to look their best when meeting strangers, in person and online, and it is much easier to do so online, so it is not a good idea to trust first impressions, especially online.
