Wanting to be honest is the reason I changed my social media profile pic twice when I was growing out my natural gray. I didn't even resemble the old pic and didn't want to misrepresent myself.

My theory is that most people on dating sites lie because everyone wants either Barbie or Ken even though they themselves don't come close to being a perfect "10." Guess they think if they can lure someone in, they just might have a chance with their wonderful personality. For now and hopefully as long as I live, I have my 'perfect for me man', but if I ever find myself alone in this world, no way would I resort to a dating site. My luck, I'd get a serial killer.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17963388515710083930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4145825647751945760.post-43836278198908377662016-06-22T21:40:40.548-05:002016-06-22T21:40:40.548-05:00My Mother could always take a small grain of truth...My Mother could always take a small grain of truth and bake a whole loaf of lies. She would embellish these legends to her liking and then told them so often that she actually believed them to be true. I suppose I could do the same, but I find truth to be stranger than fiction. I have been known to embellish a story for entertainment quality, but, in a personal ad, that could turn into a bad situation.

Imagine their surprise if they actually made the trek to wild country to meet your friend. Maybe one of them did and fell in love with her anyway. Did you lose touch with her when you moved?Dianna Gravemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00332304986777127069noreply@blogger.com
