Legit profile?

Mon, 06-13-2005 - 9:31pm

I sent an icebreaker to this woman about a week ago and today I got a reply with "I like your pictures, you should post more".

I was wondering if I could get some opinions. I have fallen for these before. I honestly think Match & Yahoo post "bogus" profiles to get people to subscribe just so they can reply to them. Then you never hear back, and just assume the person ghosted. I don't want to become a paying member just to send an email to a fake profile.

She doesn't seem to be very picky, does she?

Uh yeah - no evidence to back that up either, but she's a fake. Experience. No one who looks like that is online.

HI Eric,

Granted, we Texas women Are pretty, but...this is one of those if "if it looks too good to be true, it probably Is" kinda things!

Very bait-ish!

This reminds me of the "sound booth" phenomenon. If they put Me in a sound booth, with all of that $$ equipment, I, too, could sound like Celine Dion. Same with this photo...too "unreal" to be real. Run, Forrest, Run.

If she IS real, I bet she is So high maintinence! lol!

Go for the Real.

Truly,
Cupcake

Eric,

I used to get winks and e-mails from this type of gal and I got the same results: nothing. That's why I quit using yahoo because I got alot of woman from Russia and many that seemed to be fake. Chances are, it's a guy posing as a woman and likes to sit home and watch Hitler documentaries and smoke crack.

TT - You don't post often enough but I love it when you do, especially for lines like that.

Eric - Like everyone else, I believe that's a fake profile, no question.

Eric-
I would not want to date anyone that could not write/ communicate any better than that! If she cannot write, she probably cannot hold a conversation either. Besides that, she wants a guy under 32 years old so that rules you out LOL She's not good enough for you anyway :)
