I Appreciate Honesty

It’s so difficult finding someone honest anymore. Especially online! And I don’t understand why? If you’re on a dating site, why be someone you’re not? Don’t you want someone to fall for you as YOU?

Yet, I keep trying! I know not everyone is like that. But... damn... there’s a lot of them lol

Why shouldn't they lie to elevate themselves.
If men and women posting at online dating sites were honest about their looks, personalities interests and hobbies
No one would answer to them.
They have to lie.

Thats a cynical way of viewing things. I’m honest online. I get people messaging. Maybe not as much as I would if I added more spice and lied, but who wants responses to a lie?? Nobody HAS to lie.

@TenderHeart Years ago I met my husband through dating services.
He said fishing was his top hobby, guess what? his rod and reel look like something from colonial times. He hadn't fished in years, He lied to impress me. All I can say even little tiny lies can lead to big problems in the future especially if you think tiny white lies don't count.

Take advice from someone experienced in this field

Be careful
