      What kind of robot thinks “hey are you waiting for someone” sounds like a normal thing to ask a person?

      Be me Stood up by obvious catfish Sad that I fell for it again Even worse, the man who’s been drinking alone while staring at me for the last half hour is coming over. He smirks and asks “hey are you waiting for someone”? I instinctually interpret it as “do you have any witnesses arriving soon?”

        You’ve been watching this person for half an hour, you pick up certain cues, like they being alone and waiting instead of making an order.

      That’s not gaslighting. It’s catfishing. Gaslighting is when you try to trick someone into thinking they’re crazy or that their memory is unreliable by lying to them about events you both experienced or knew about.

        people love to use new words they’ve learnt even when they’ve misunderstood what they actually mean. Funnily enough, that comment has been upvoted 83 times, showing that the majority of people are either fine in using terms in wrong context or are also not aware of the correct term.

          You can’t really deduce what the majority of people think without knowing the raw numbers of how many people saw it.

          I suspect the majority probably didn’t vote it at all

          Catfishing is defined by wikipedia as

          a deceptive activity in which a person creates a fictional persona or fake identity on a social networking service, usually targeting a specific victim. The practice may be used for financial gain, to compromise a victim in some way, as a way to intentionally upset a victim, or for wish fulfillment.

          OP made an account on Tinder and pretended to be a hot guy by utilizing the image of a totally different, super attractive man, for the purpose of exploiting women and manipulating them into being at a particular place at a particular time so he could make it seem like the person they matched with stood them up, only to show up as a less enticing backup option to someone who was emotionally compromised. I mean, he obviously didn’t because none of this is real, but if he had, it would still be catfishing.

    The only believable part is at the beginning where 30 women didn’t go on a date with someone who uses 4chan after talking to them.

    I think the term here is ‘chadfishing.’

    There are people who allegedly do stuff like this on Tinder, but it’s mainly to push the incel narrative that you need a strong square jawline, huge chin, and other masculine features to even have a chance to match with ladies on Tinder.

    Or course people claiming this could easily have faked screenshots, so take that with a massive grain of salt.

      well it is a pretty shallow app.

      being good looking helps. I’ve done tinder as a fat guy and as a fit guy (legitimately, i lost a load of weight for a while) and i got a lot more attention when i was fitter.

      Do people think pilots are rich and powerful? I know a couple of pilots. They make about €90k a year and they are basically well qualified bus drivers.

        Man, where to begin with this.

        A. The pilots you know are making way more than most commercial pilots if those numbers aren’t made up.

        B. Nearly 100K in USD a year IS A LOT OF MONEY to most people, certainly nothing to scoff at. Way more than the median US income.

        C. You’re on fucking drugs if you legitimately believe that piloting a plan requires the same level of competency as driving a bus.

        D. Who the fuck upvoted you?

          The pilots I know are all working for the budget airline Ryanair (but not all with Irish contracts). I can’t say anything about what a pilot earns in the US.

          They describe themselves as bus drivers. Yes, it’s more complex, there is a higher training level but not really skill. The biggest barrier is the cost of entry.

          And being well above a national median salary hardly makes someone rich. Sure if you make 90k living in a backwater you might be better off than most people around you, but try buying a house in Dublin with a 90k salary

      Why is wanting a person with money even in the same ballpark of bad as lying to people to get them into bed?

      Just because I don’t understand or share the preference of someone doesn’t mean I want them to get used like a fleshlight.

      Is it seriously your opinion that a person wanting someone with money is a bad human being who deserves to be treated like what your workmate did?

      This is simply misogyny. And people are ultra casual about it. That’s seriously scary. I wonder what other partner preferences you think makes women basically lose their right to be treated with a baseline of respect.

          This is a quote from you where you put women who want men with money on the same level as a guy exploiting them through manipulation:

          My old workmate used to tell women he was a pilot. […] but also bad on the women who dribble over money and power. Nobody was a great human being in that situation.

          I am still waiting for your explanation on why women who want a guy with money are “bad”.

              So I can assume every man who wants an attractive and/or young(er) woman is also a bad human being who deserves to get manipulated and lied to for whatever reason. Got it!
