I’ve seen people consider even 5’7" as short for some reason so i’m curious if it has happened with someone

    I think they mention it to weed out the liars. Insecure dudes will show up 6" shorter than advertised. (And woman 100lbs. heavier.)

    I did quite well at online dating and I think it’s largely from having honest pics, and a wide variety of them, and having an amusing write up.

      I was on a date once and when i opened my door, she stood there super excited and hugged me and said: omg, you’re real, just like the pictures. And i just stood there awkwardly, thinking: man i wish i could say the same to you. Because she mysteriously gained twice her sice over night.

      What made it even worse is that we planned to go on a hike with my dog, and as you could guess, she wasn’t really equipped for long walks and started huffing while my house was still visible.
