I dont know what to do? Need Help fast!!

Hey guy's, My situation is a lil complicated. Ok well I met this guy on the internet Lets
Say about 6 month's ago. Well me and him really hit it off and we have alot of things in common. We want the same things in life and I think that's great, but I made one mistake when we met. I sent him a fake pic and now he wants to meet me. I know that was kinda immature but people make mistakes and I admit that it was a mistake. It was very foolish of me. I really want to meet him but I dont know how to tell him the truth. Can anyone give me any pointer's on how to break the news to him? I really do love this guy and im afraid that he will stop talking to me or if he does keep talking to me he will never trust me again. Please help me. I will appreciate any kind of help. Thank you.

Did you send him a photo of someone much more attractive? Did you send it because you have insecurity in your own appearance? Do you think he will not find you attractive and now that he knows the 'real' you, you assume looks won't matter?
If any of these are why, I suspect this is a lost cause. If you are equally as attractive or not worried about your physical appearance and just sent the fake photo because initially you didn't expect this to turn into anything, then I would send him a real one and an explanation along the lines of "I never thought we would get to be such good friends, being over the internet I was scared to send a real picture, then the more we started talking, I didn't now how to fix it".. and hope he finds the real you as equally appealing.
I hate to say that looks matter, but looks matter. Right, wrong, shallow, whatever.. for most people, looks matter. Hoping he would like you for you and not any flaws you think you have, well that is a dangerous game and the main reason I refuse to engage in 'online' dating. If you 'meet' someone online, move it to a real physical date a week or two after first talking, there is no reason to build this online romance when the lack of physical chemistry can kill it in an instant the second you meet.

I'm actually glad you posted this problem because I have always wondered about this!
Why in the world would you send somebody else's picture to a person you are trying to meet????
