I recently had a response on my profile from someone that lives near me... and my pictures I have on my profile are a bit old. Since then I put on a little weight, not much..but I tested to see how it would work out by saying I changed a lot..and she stopped messaging me completely. Is why places like this never work out..personality never matters..and the superficial, judgmental and shallowness of people always makes its way out and shown. Is a bit upsetting and aggravating to see..but hey, at least my test worked out exactly as I thought :P..people on here just aren't worth it.

There's also something to be said about truth in advertising...

Haha..I am true about advertising..won't lie I changed a little in 4 years..I look older..taller..more mature..but added the weight thing to see the reaction..and of course...shallowness prevailed..

I agree with Phuque

I don't mean to be negative... but you were playing games and they were shallow...

both are at fault...

honesty is the best policy... you are young, you will get over it! Use it as a lesson learned and keep your chin up!

So, you're saying that by playing that lil game, you've proven people are shallow? Pffffffffft! Physician heal thyself...

Of course..a reply I'd expect from women..lol..when I was telling the truth , just bent a little after..but whatever.. :P

You're only going to burn yourself when you play with ppl like that. Your case, in point.

Yeah man that's true, just find it funny women test out men with some **** on here...then the other way around it's like oh no..bad bad man..haha

I don't think it is shallow to be attracted to someone for their physical appearance, or to use physical attarictiveness in your criteria for finding someone.

If you find someone and you are with that person and you realize after a time, that they are mean, insensitive, bigoted, etc. and you would have left them if they weren't so good looking, rich, etc....or you don't leave them after realizing this...

...THEN, you are shallow.

People are either physically attracted to you, or they are not. It is only after there is SOME kind of physical attraction that it is likely a person will want to get to know you. Sad fact of internet dating. In real life, in person, you MAY get someone to look at you a little differently with your sparkling personality, but they will STILL have to find something PHYSICALLY attractive about you. Sad fact of life.

YAY! And now the generalizations about women! You'll do well, Grasshopper!

I agree with kevroku...if people were really trying to find their "someone special" they should keep their minds open...to all types of people. If they were they might actually find exactly what they were looking for.

I have to agree with others, you're playing games and they're shallow? I'd agree that they may be shallow but look at it this way, perhaps they perceived YOU as being dishonest? They stopped writing not because you've gained weight but because you weren't honest from the get-go.

Pot calling the kettle black here

you have a wonderful attitude... and I see it's working out well for you!... seriously tho... honesty works...

oh, btw... $.25 just for you!

People everywhere are shallow...You shouldn't let that bother you..I had people say I would look great if I lost weight. That is why I put " I will not lose weight for anyone." in my profile

Thanks..that's all I was getting at.. I was going to tell who it was I was joking afterwards..because well if anyone ever talks to me and realizes I joke around a lot..but it's not the fact of lying or not..people close their minds so quickly..over something so little..is a bit sickening after a while.

your beautiful just the way you are!...

haha yeah I know honesty works..and I'll be sure not to joke around or mess around with someone next time..but don't regret it either.. eliminates the people not worth it quicker than realizing later on when it's too late.

Dude you need to grow up. By testing, your sabotaging yourself and others. If what you advertise is what one reads and see's then you update a quick response to your status, then of course you are going to get a negative reaction because it looks like you are lying and playing games, and in this case, you were doing just that. Take your toys and go home. When you decide you can be in an adult world, come back and contribute positiveness. Remember, you reap what you sow....

but it wasn't sabotage..did I mention we have been speaking for the past..I don't know almost month now..and a little thing like that sent her running for the hills..so yeah..just shallow..and happy to eliminate it..
