Yeahhh I was catfished when I was 20 years old. When I was living in the dorm and another student catfished me, this guy that was apparently in one of my classes ๐Ÿคจ. It came off โ€œstalkerishโ€

I would blow a fuse if someone catfished me, I love that show but how do you let yourself be catfish in this day and age?!! Skype FaceTime messenger so many

What gets me how long these individuals would go without seeing the person, I mean years, my alleged catfish lasted a week. His profile picture was not him, which it looked fake but I went along with it and when he told me he went to the same university I went too, I asked him to met me at the student hall and he actually showed and told me the truth which he couldnโ€™t hide any longer that he wasnโ€™t the person in the picture ๐Ÿ˜†. No hard feelings on my end, I donโ€™t like to put ppl down. I explained we can remain friends and we did!

One episode it was 4 years like are you serious, but my breaks for them, they genuinely love the person and they got lies to, it's a lose lose situation

I know I watched a catfish of a guy who really thought he was talking to Katy Perry it was creepy and when he met the real person he then thought Katy Perry was playing a trick on him and didnโ€™t want to โ€œexpose her real selfโ€ bc she was a celebrity. He wouldnโ€™t let go of the idea he wasnโ€™t talking to Katy Perry. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

in reply to UnderstandingMyPain

I've only watched the original film, but I haven't seen any of the TV series.

I thought the film was really heartwarming as he felt sorry for the catfisher and she wasn't humiliated in the show.

I have my doubts whether it was real or staged, but I think it alerted people to catfishing.

Nowadays people would hopefully be catfished and see the funny side of it rather than be angry or vengeful.

Finally if someone gets catfished based on what they think is perfection then they are shallow.

Personally I have found plainer girls to be far nicer inside than beautiful ones, I've only been disappointed by pretty girls that have turned out to be rotten to the core inside whereas the plainer ones are still good friends and I choose to remain single for fear of getting another bitch.

I like how Nev did not โ€œput downโ€ or humiliate the catfisher. He learned from his experience.
