I’m not on dating apps, so perhaps I don’t know all the protocol, but if I see someone dressed for fishing holding a fish, I don’t automatically assume they always dress for fishing. If someone is dressed up fancy, it could have been taken at a wedding and no one would accuse them of deception if they didn’t always dress up in wedding formal, no?
OP could put a text disclaimer in the post: “The pictures don’t represent how I normally dress. I very rarely dress fancy.”

But, then he’d be “lying” about how he wants to dress, and he’d be expected to dress fancy all the time. That’s not who he is, it seems.

…fuck; is that why people keep getting weirded out when I show up for the first date?
You’re bringing new meaning to the term “catfishing”. 😀
