Why are there so many fake profiles here?

I mean…what’s the point?!?!🙄
I’ve seriously considered blocking all of the fake, dubious and alt accounts 😡

But then there wouldn’t be anyone left for me to chat with 😕

And to potentially befriend 🥺

And then eventually meet up and have a coffee and rant to about all those fake people on SW 🤓

i am getting hit up by fake profiles too. i know who the ones that hit my political posts but i had more today

@akindheart I don’t mind the fake political ones as much as the fake sexy ones that I get engaged to and end up leaving me at the altar. Fool me once…shame on me. Fool me six times…

@Ghostinthemachine i think you found the problem..i got burnt a couple of times. we are always optimistic that the next one will be different...

@akindheart Forever the optimists.
But the world is built by people believing in people, right?

akindheart · 61-69, F

@Ghostinthemachine absolutely but don't wear your heart on your sleeve, ok?

@akindheart where should I keep it?

akindheart · 61-69, F

@Ghostinthemachine tight in your chest. don't give it away and don't show it until you are sure the recipient is the real deal.

Ghostinthemachine · M

@akindheart I don’t give mine away too easily or quickly, but I’ve still been burnt

How about you?

akindheart · 61-69, F

@Ghostinthemachine burnt many times and I thank God for that now. made me very smart and i never get involved online again

@akindheart while I would never say never to anything, I’m way more cautious now
