Does it really matter if the profile is fake or not?

@iamonfire696 nope, that’s not MY experience…project

@iamonfire696 So, in implied meanings, only unattractive men look for catfish? Hold some standards please.

@SW-User No that meme
Shows an unattractive man as the catfish.

Why are you coming for me? I just saw you on a post of and 18-21 F account and her profile picture is of a 12 year old and she implies she is having sex with her brother and you told her to have fun.

In that case I am not sure who is behind that account but you seem to be okay with underage incest.

@Ynotjenn yes, what did you think we were here for?!? That and the cookies.

@Ynotjenn Its in the user agreement when you first joined SW.
Check the fine print...the very very small letters 🔎

@Carissimi fake profiles don’t float my boat, and I have no clue about the incentive behind them. There’s no long term gain from having one

Narcissists, and deceivers, glean pleasure from short-term gains. They don’t think like regular people. @Ghostinthemachine

@Carissimi similar to psychopaths

@JustNik sexting is perhaps an extension of regular conversation, where the imagination slowly takes over from the reality. I suppose it depends on the person whether it’s grounded in reality or not.
For me, that would entail a lot of trust.
Perhaps more than can be reasonably given here. Otherwise, yes, good conversation is welcome with anyone

@JustNik i am real, why would i lie?

@samueltyler2 perhaps you wouldn’t, but some people do

@LilithoftheTrees to some, no

I’d like to know the reasons. Is their offline life so miserable that they need some escapism?

@Ghostinthemachine don’t we all need escapism at times?

@LilithoftheTrees it’s mandatory mental meditation

@Jenny1234 probably, they don’t want to know the truth of what’s going on behind the velvet curtain

@ravenwind43 yes, and some of it is quite obvious, other not so much, but if I have any doubt I err on the side of caution

@Ghostinthemachine very wise :)

@ravenwind43 I have my moments 😌

@bookerdana ?

@Sweetpoison wrong notification,to wrong person...took care of that tout de suite

@Sweetpoison I’m sure fat sweaty dude wants to talk about meat of some sort.

@GothicRainbow are we making pizza or pasta?

@Ghostinthemachine pizza duh

@GothicRainbow that’s right! You have to make the pizza dough before you can add the sauce, silly me

@WillaKissing as long as it doesn't hurt others, why not right?

@Ghostinthemachine I agree with you.

@WillaKissing I agree with you agreeing with me

@SW-User excellent point, and I see how it would to some people

@boredintexas Just close your eyes, use your imagination, and then grip it and rip it 😂

@SW-User I suppose all of this is just ….our imagination

@Redgarnet The lines are blurred either way about what is real and what is fake, here or in real life

I don't even know if I really exist, or just a figment of your imagination

@OogieBoogie I suppose if someone wants to fully embrace the fantasy of online life…but no, I need any interactions I have here grounded in some sort of reality.
To each their own

@Ghostinthemachine it is each to their own.
I mean, iOrbix had a whole feed dedicated to users online fantasy personas ...so evidently there is a market for it.

Me...im the same as you . I kinda need reality . Im tired of fakery, lies and all that pretense in real life, i dont need more .

Fantasy is fun, but you cant live in it .
And these places are addictive: they can alter your mindest and you dont even realsie .
And before you know it....youre addicted to an identity that was never real.

Seems psychologically dangerous to me .🤷‍♀️

@OogieBoogie maybe the issue is there are many reasons why people come here, both for real connections and escapism, and SW just wants as many users as possible, so it’s catered to both, while not really fully satisfying anyone. I don’t know, but I agree, fantasy without some grounding in reality can lead to a slippery wormhole of hurt

@nevergiveup sounds like entrapment…or something…

@bookerdana

@Ghostinthemachine yeah,He'd do that,too

@ImperialAerosolKidFromEP this is very true.
Ignorance is bliss, I suppose
