Can I ask a really dumb question? Exempting people who have on their profiles they are not looking for someone, and con artists, what possible reason is there for someone to be phony on a dating web site?
30 years ago, people would walk out of their house, leave the door wide open and walk around their area talking with the neighbors. Kids could go alot of places unaccompanied by adults and make their own friends.
Now people lock everything up if they go on a 5 minute errand, and kids now have "play dates".
The trend seems to be still going in the direction of less human contact I am sorry to say....
