What makes me attracted to men online via social media called Facebook, but not to any men in real life? ?

While that may seem common, i am more interested in a guy that has been texting me every day and has always let me know when he's too busy or tired to message me. when i did met men in real life i didn't get any type of attraction at all. In real life, some guys already had a girlfriend with learning disabilities. The guy I am texting has learning disabilities and he's single because I asked him. I apologized to him. I am one of those women that will try and take relationships sometimes very seriously and if there was any cheating in my past ex relationship. They get a harsh lesson the hard way when they end up very quick. This includes ending things with the cheater and never talking to them again. Don't talk to guys that are cheaters, players, or toxic men. The same women with learning disabilities.

Be careful about meeting someone through social media . You really don't know who you are communicating with, especially if you're only messaging. People can steal photos from there and pretend they are someone else. A friend of mine got involved in a romance scam on Facebook, actually she fell for it a couple times, one time ended up being scammed out of money. I don't know that's what is happening here but just be careful.

You just need to learn what not to do and what the bigger tech weaknesses are. I personally wouldn’t use Facebook to meet anyone…heck I’m so grossed out by that company I haven’t even logged in for over a month. Your friend may be accepting friend of friend requests. I had a Facebook friend who was doing that. She couldn’t understand why she was such a target. As soon as she restricted friends to people she has had a real positive interaction with all that stopped. It took a while to get her to see how she was attracting scammers. It didn’t have much to do with her photo. If she is looking to meet someone advise her to use a dating platform where they validate if you are real and set rules.

Actually we're not even friends anymore. I tried telling her (along with others) that she was being scammed but she didn't believe it. She was married (in her 60's) when she first started on FB. Hubby found out and they just recently got divorced(other issues involved as well) Through a mutual friend I heard she finally realized the scamming after a few 'relationships'. Oh well, that's on her.

I wasn't lecturing you, just concerned. If you don't want feedback here, don't post. Obviously you are very young so just be careful.

Bummer. she has to choose to accept the lessons I guess. I won't even engage on Facebook. It is such an awful company anyway. In fact someone flirted with me from my past and I found out that he was married by looking at his profile and seeing that his wife tagged him on his *anniversary*. So even people you know can be scammers and cheats.

It's not about what I think . What I said was about one person's concern about another, that's all. I was not trying to ruin anything for you. Take care and stay safe. Hope things work out for you. Am not going to respond anymore.

could be that we tend to fill in missing information about a person we meet online with details we like. For example you might think a person is tall from their photo but they are really short in real life. It is natural to fill in that missing information with descriptions we like. I did this just recently. That is just my opinion. I believe that is what you asked for.

in reply toBlueruth

I prefer short men over tall men . tall men always has rejected me .
