Well, I've been talking to a guy online for a couple weeks named Chris. I THOUGHT I was talking to a Chris I sent an email to on Yahoo & disguised my email. I always liked how Yahoo had the option of listing first names.

Well, we made plans to have lunch today.

Well, the Chris that showed up was not at ALL the guy I thought I was talking to. In fact, I don't remember ever seeing his picture before. Now, he wasn't troll looking, but he definitely wasn't someone I would have been interested in.

I went through the lunch okay, trying to find some chemistry/attraction, maybe thinking the mixup was to force me to meet someone I wouldn't have given a chance to begin with.

Nope...nada...zilch. And I feel stupid for not know who the hell this guy was when talking to him. Wow, what a strange thing to happen. Has ANYONE every had this happen?

I'm trying to go through Yahoo now to find his actual profile & see if I can find the original correspondence.

Oh, my goodness, that IS funny! You must have been really surprised and a little confused when he introduced himself--presumably he recognized you from your pic?

Well, I found his profile on Match, but I don't remember ever talking to him. Thus, I'm not sure how he got my email.

Strange.

Oh well, I guess onward & upward. Of course, he was TOTALLY into me, just my luck.

Yes, I look exactly like my pictures. It was just so awkward!
