Online vs real life perception


Recommended Posts

Most are probably familiar with someone who appeared attractive online only to find that in real life they seemed very different. Now I found the opposite, a woman who I find to be attractive in real but after seeing her online profile she seems so different.

 

For the past few months, I had only seen her in passing but I had the preconceived idea that she was the studious type which I usually find attractive. It wasn't until last week that actually met her and after having decent conversation which seemed to confirm what I believed. A few days ago, she and I met up in a group setting with common friends. I got to know her better and she added me on one of her social media sites.

 

When I seen her online profile I could hardly believe it was the same woman. In fact, I searched for her profile after I met her, and found it but bypassed it because I thought it was the wrong person. Online she seems like an attention seeker who dresses in skimpy clothes to get likes from men. She and I are the same race but evidently she only dates men of another race. I have never met someone who seemed so different online, could she simply be putting up a front because seems shy in real life?

Nothing unusual there,

 

many people are quieter or more introverted in person than they are in online profiles,

 

so as you say they try to create an adventurous picture of themselves behind a keyboard.

 

I think it is a pity that these online personas are only a dream for some people, that they are unable to find the courage and so on to produce their online image in real life,

(or that other people do not help them to come out of their shell- this is a problem too but often overlooked)

 

anyway you seem to prefer her IRL personality so all good then!

l'd be wondering how old she is and how it's all working out for her in RL ?

So many women think online is their supermarket and they can demand what they want.

But if if they could really do that for real in real life they wouldn't be on a date site and transferring that into the real world and actual reality and in the end something worthwhile, is a whole nother story, just read places like LS.

And scan different date sites, the same women are usually on 3 or 4 different sites for years. Well l'm a guy in his 50s , yet l only used one site back when because there's no way l could've handled more, one got confusing enough.

So you know , don't take her crap too seriously, really, look at her real life, that's the reality.

I know what you're talking about. This has happened quite often to me, it's kinda funny. I am someone who does online dating quite a lot. I was never really lucky with my picks as in real life it would be a completely different person. On https://datejasmin.com/, however, the women were just like in the pictures. It's actually the place where I met my girlfriend. We are currently together and have been for about 5 months, living together too. It all depends on where you look.
