Updates on online dating...

That first date I had well, he decided to ghost me.
I have a few suspicions, he was rushing me by calling me his gf, he seemed older than he said, he had also lost a lot of weight in the last 5 months, he decided to take the bus from embankment to Woolwich, while I got o the train. He forgot to wear a jacket and was shivvering most the evening, he was also pushing to get physical by date 3.
I think he cancelled our date due to mismatched speeds and I suspect although he was working, perhaps he wasn't doing quite so well.
He did mention not wanting to work in hospitality forever.

A guy I've been talking to for 3 weeks has been rushing to meet, I was happy to go for a drink on Friday but last minute he asked to meet last night, he claimed to see if we get on.
Also there's no telling he will finish work at 9 it could be later due to how busy Friday night gets.
He kept calling and video calling, so I picked up to say last night wasn't good but he tried to use a tactic, as if he couldn't hear me in the hope I'd eventually change my mind and say yes. So I hung up.

I decide to block him.

Another guy I've been speaking to around a similar length, has been really sweet to me.
In his pictures he's been really cagey and on his profile posted images of himself I now know from different periods of time in his life.
Anyways I sent him a selfie in the hope he'd send one back. He does not look at all like his pictures.
I was respectful.
He said that he had long covid and works from home.
Anyways because of this his weight gain is quite excessive.
I've dated bigger in the past but I guess it was quite a shock.
I feel a little umm... Deceived.

I need some time to process all of this...

Yeah there's a lot of weirdos, trolls, and catfish out there. Fakes, flakes, or those that push for as much as they can get as quickly as possible. Be careful.

Date a guy who has a car and doesn't need to take a bus.
