Catfish or not a catfish?

If you've been talking to someone online for nearly a year but they don't want to talk or video call or anything other than send obscure photos and e-mail... they're probably catfishing right? Even though they seem genuine and they're profiles match etc... Such a shame 😔

Possible, or married and don't want the wife to know

Maybe or maybe they just don't want to completely expose themselves in video or they have an issue talking, that can be intimidating for a few.
SW-User
I don't think it particularly matters unless your relationship is intimate. But they might just like their privacy or be too self-conscious to really open up... We can only speculate.
SW-User
Not always ...I'm not comfortable with video calls or talking ...I'm just a weirdo ,I guess
SW-User
@SW-User same.

@SW-User cool
Probably, tho i dont really like video calls 😂

Probably. I wouldn't expect it to ever become a real life thing, just a chat buddy
SW-User
Never put your life on hold for obscure photos and email.
It's maybe more likely they could be catfishing, but not necessarily. Some people just don't want to be seen for some reason. But I honestly think most people are who they say they are. Maybe I'm just too trusting.

I didn't voice chat my gf for almost a year. She thought i was a catfish but i was actually too nervous and shy to do it. However, I finally did and we've skyped every day since then.

could be a chance. too many catfishes online. ive talked with people online for over a year and they can be very deceptive.

Maybe they just don't want to talk? Does your profile say after 12months you must video call me?
PandorasBox · 31-35, F
@ExtremeNext oh no... it's more like 12 months, 50 e-mails and some emotional intimacy then video call... aha

Not necessarily but I suppose it would support that theory if there’s other stuff that suggests it

You have to use logic. If you are questioning it, it's a red flag
Quizzical · 46-50, M
Are they a man or a woman?
PandorasBox · 31-35, F
@Quizzical as far as I know, man.
Quizzical · 46-50, M
@PandorasBox Well, that reduces the chance they are catfishing you then 🤔

Still, it's possible I suppose

Or married one or the other
