Does anyone have internet dating horror stories to share, either that happened to them or to someone else? I personally don't, but am interested in hearing them.

CREEPY ASS MOTHERFUCKER STALKED ME ON THREE SITES.
Other than that, internet dating is just filled with creepy guys trying to get down my pants because I'm Asian. There are good ones out there, but because of my shyness I kinda flopped with them.

OK. I'm going to tell it, but I don't want non-members to see it for a variety of reasons... Posting it in F&B. I warn you, it is NOT going to be pretty. Here you go. Please don't refer to any of the stuff in that thread here.

That's the sound of half the board's lurkers rushing to create an account. You hear that? That's the sound of an L tempted to make a new F&B thread just for you, because this feels like a horribly insensitive response. Seriously, what I just linked is the story of the absolute low point in my life. It's probably not even going to stay up for longer than a day or two.

On topic: I don't have any stories that are truly horrifying, but I suppose the worst would be meeting up with this gal from OK Cupid and not only having to deal with a large, slobbering dog all weekend, but also missing the mark when that big moment came. >.>

Sorry 'bout that. I just kidding around, I meant no harm or anything of the sort.

No horror stories either. Chicks lie about their height, if you are 5'8" you should be taller than me. Weight. Email tag. And I've run across profiles from people I know.

I once met a girl on a dating site with a colostomy bag. Which isn't bad in and of itself, except that she didn't tell me until the big moment, at which point I was like "wtf is that???". Kinda killed the mood

...seriously, Bez? There are some things that one should disclose beforehand. I mean, really. She didn't have to put that in her profile, but c'mon, she could have said something.
One look at the guys in my area on Grindr is all the encouragement I need to stay away from dating sites in general.

In her defense, she told me after the fact that she would have, but she really didn't expect it to get to that point that fast. And to my defense, I actually went with her on the planned date the next day, and even stayed friends with her for a couple of years before we lost touch. We never got romantic again, though, and I never led her on thinking there was any possibility (obviously, after that weekend). I might be kind of a lech, but at least I'm nice about it.
