LIAR, LIAR

Big fat liars are probably the biggest complaint of singles who surf. Instead of fessing up about whatever it is we don’t like about ourselves (our age, our weight, the fact that we’re not so happily married), we simply fail to mention it in order to create a more pleasing virtual self. What happened to Andrew, a 46-year-old single from Chicago, is fairly typical.

This woman outweighed me by one hundred pounds, was taller than me (I’m 5’11”), and had a deep voice made gravelly by years of smoking and (she confessed) alcohol abuse.
