Internet deception

53 sincerity · 03-07-2010, 12:08 PM

Hi readers.I help on this one. Last June I met a gentleman on one of the dating sites. We met and everything appeared well. We hung out a lot during the summer. Things stared to change during the fall because of his busy wall street schedule. He no longer had a lot of time for me. I had left once before and stupidly returned. We got together for valentines day and I found out a week later that he recently renewed his profile and is back online again. I confronted him about it one Sunday morning and he said his profile is up but he's not subscribing. Later that day he tried to chat with me online, not recognizing my profile from when we first met. My profile is still up but I'm no longer a subscriber with a picture. It hurt my heart that he was so deceptive. Now he avoids me. Any advice??

I am sorry to give you bad news, but looking at this from a male point of view, I believe his intentions are not honourable and you should move on.

He put up a profile but doesn't subscribe? Please - why else would someone go back on a site unless they wanted to meet someone else. And you proved it yourself, he chatted to you unknowingly.

As Judge Judy says, 'If it doesn't make sense, its usually not true'.

There will be somebody better and nicer for you.

So let me get this straight. You're mad at him because his profile was still up on the personals site. But your profile is also still up. I'm reminded of a story that involves a pot, a kettle and a particular color.

You misunderstood about the profiles. Obviously if my profile was active and I was looking I would be equally guilty. My profile without a picture, was still in their database

I thank you all for your advice and yes, I am moving on.
