I’ve (SB) been talking with a new POT and things have gone exceptionally well. We are meeting in a couple of days but we talk all the time and even on phone calls. We have similar sense of humor and values it seems. However, he was very hesitant to share any photos with me. When he finally did I thought great he looked attractive enough things could work. Something was nagging me about it though and I decided to see if I could search for him with his number now since nothing was turning up with just the number alone. Turns out he sent me fake photos and I know they’re fake because the real person passed away 😭. I would have still went on the m&g if he was not as attractive because of our connection when we talk and the arrangement is exactly what I was looking for. Do I now cancel the whole thing? Do I ask him about it? I mentioned something from one of the photos and he went with it creating what could possibly be a lie (or maybe they have similar hobbies?). I could understand a fake photo on Seeking if it looked really close and real photos by text or in private but these are all fake photos. Is this red flag too big to continue to see him for the M&G soon?

How things went: I didn’t ghost I just removed his access to my photos on seeking and sent him a kind of long text asking what’s going on and why he used those photos and that I would need to see real photos before we meet and likely ID before sex/overnights if we get that far (we had been planning a travel heavy arrangement). I joked about how it was spooky. He BLOCKED ME. Lol.
