Catfish

[maybee]

I did use to say that I was male, so could feel much more safer online when I was younger, if that counts.

I inflated my age by a year or two when I joined here because it said you had to be 13 and I was like "no smurf you I wanna talk about Final Fantasy".

I've pretended to be trout I'm not in online games or Omegle or whatever, but it's less me trying to invent a story and more me just smurfing around with people who are being dicks. I consistently roleplay as an evangelical female sun worshipper when I play Leona in League of Legends. Of course, because I'm still a filthy man underneath all of that, I hit on the other female champs relentlessly.

Back when I was like 12 or 13, I'd go in chat rooms and lie about my age allll the time..

But I never like got close to anyone- it was just total randomness.

Except for back when I used to roleplay regularly (RIP ChatHouse lol). I got super close to a lot of the people who settled into being regulars, but I don't think any of us knew ages of each other for a few years and then it turned out I was the baby of the group. Until 2 newbies popped up that I got to be close friends with, but one of them was an FF fanatic and Cait Sith was her fav. hehe.

It's really not hard to lie about age and make it seem believable though. Esp if pics aren't involved at first. A vast majority of adults are really good at making themselves look really stupid.

Have I ever been catfished? Nahhhh.. I've had people turn out to be complete weirdos after going on a few dates, but that's it.

I mean, I honestly don't get how people can be so dense. if someone isn't willing to video chat with you at some point early on in the "relationship", then that should automatically send up red flags right there. IDK about y'all, but I'm not gonna date a picture and some words.

Never did a catfish really , but when I was 11 this random girl on Aol chat thought I was in my 20's so I just went along with it. After having a casual conversation she then told me to piss off and go smurf my bf...I was like "ummm". I also remember one time playing halo on xbox live these people thought I was a little boy and asked why I was using the female master chief.

When I was 12, my friend and I would go on the "teenager" AOL chatrooms and pretend we were 16. Lolol.

I often give a fake name to creepy guys who hit on me in clubs/bars.

[~*~Celes~*~]

i have been catfished twice, I was pretty young both times (14-15?) one of the times the guy showed me a picture off of a kenny chesney album and said that was him. I believed him because I didn't listen to kenny chesney so I had no idea lmao

Oh, jesus, I've just remembered my sister was catfished in real life. She met some dude at a rollerskate rink - I think she was fifteen or sixteen. He told her he was 17 (and he actually smurfing looked it!). They dated and it got pretty serious - she lost her virginity to him, he was at our house all the time, was buddy-buddy with my mom, asked her for rides all the time. She would drop him off at this big fancy mansion in the foothills where the rich people lived.

My boyfriend at the time met him and thought his story didn't quite add up, so he did some investigating. I don't know how but I think through some illicit means, he found out that this dude was not the age he said he was (I think he was twenty-six?), that his name was fake, and that the house he had been having us drop him off at all this time was not his actual address, among some other smaller bulltrout lies. Basically, he was a pedophile who picked up minors at the skating rink and took advantage of the fact that he looked like a skinny, wiry, short little teenage boy to do it.
