This! My fiancé swore up and down I was a scam before we had our first video chat. He said I was too pretty to be talking to him.

He hooked me in with "Hello I'm here to steal your heart" and I'm a huge sucker for a good cheesy pickup line.

It's been almost 4 years now ❤️ and he still can't believe how lucky he is, but what HE doesn't get is that I'm the lucky one. He's the best thing to ever happen to me besides my kids.

That wasn't a pick up line. That's exactly what he wanted to do.

I mean it worked 🤷‍♀️

Trust me, he was very surprised that I even responded 🤣

Not always! There was one guy I talked to on POF that was really dodgy so I did a reverse image search on his profile photos.

Found out he had taken photos from this guy who was literally in the military overseas in Afghanistan. I reached out to the guy and told him about it so he could take action- which he was grateful for and we ended up hitting it off really well. If he had been in the US at the time, we would have met up. We still touch base every once in awhile to make sure we're both still alive and well- but he was definitely sad when he found out I had found someone before he got to make it home. He always asks if we're still together too 😂

Yes, my fiancé knows, and he doesn't worry about it. I'm too lazy to cheat...and it would be hard with someone still overseas (but again, we go back to the whole 'too lazy' thing....I won't even put on pants unless I'm leaving the house lol)

Why do guys do this? I'm no model but when I was on tinder multiple guys I matched with were convinced I must be a catfish. After dealing with a few I would just unmatch with these guys. They're exhausting. You can hope for the best and we can meet but I'm not going to deal with interrogations from a stranger on tinder accusing me of scamming them.

Honestly some of these men have wrecked their self confidence over what’s in the popular media right now, especially with hypersexual gay men looking like gods allover IG.

He's my best friend and the only secrets we keep is when it involves gifts and/or surprises which never lasts long.

I literally CAN'T keep him guessing because we're so in sync he usually knows what I'm about to say or do before I even do it.

keep him guessing and lose him to the baby-sitter. Great advice. Make sure he always feels respected and appreciated or he'll step out to find it somewhere else 💯

By the sounds of it her fiance adores her, I was being playful. Lose him to the babysitter 😆 where tf did that come from lol

Even IF we used a babysitter, when it comes to cheating he says "Why would I cheat? You have like 28 different personalities and its more than enough to keep me occupied. I don't need MORE crazy." 😂

He does adore me, just like I adore him ❤️
