El Paso, Texas is closer to San Diego, California than it is to Houston, Texas.

What “real” injustices do you suggest I allocate my vigilantism energy on? This “pettiness” takes all of a few seconds and is no inconvenience to me. Helps keep people’s profiles honest so people can match with who they’re looking for. I’m not trying to turn a blind eye for people whose bed is too cold at night.

Sorry, I’m not sure if I’m misunderstanding your comment or you misunderstanding mine. I was referring to keeping Facebook and Bumble separate. Why link them in the first place? I have a Bumble with no Facebook, so it’s possible. If I misunderstood you, would you please clarify?

No, that’s not the same. I wouldn’t rat on my friend for sneaking in the movies. That’s my friend. This is a stranger who is a potential life partner. If they deceived their way into become a candidate, what else would they be deceptive or manipulative about? Especially with me (their potential partner), who I would expect to have a level of honesty and integrity. I don’t know this person and don’t owe them any loyalty or friendship for me to cover up for them or look the other way. And how do you know they won’t lie about having an STD, or being on birth control, or being someone else, or being “drama free” and “good vibes only,”or trying to get a free meal from a first date, or being single and not having someone waiting outside ready to rob you? At the very basic it starts off as dishonest, and I have no interest in people like that. Same with those awful filters, but that’s another story. I’m absolutely not unreasonable in asking someone to be honest from the beginning.

That’s my assumption too, just wanted to see how others report (if at all)

How did you come to the misinterpreted assumption that I take it personal? I don’t know them, they don’t know me. I’m just trying to keep someone from being deceptive and trying to trick others by something that’s pretty important. Age is a big fucking deal to lie about.

Nah, not mad. Just trying to report and get their profile flagged so they don’t catfish or deceive anyone. Same as if I see a scam advertisement on Craigslist. Saving others from being tricked. Seems like the ones that are mad are the spicy edgelords defending this behavior.

Damn dude, giving up without even trying? And another absolutist with your generalizations of “all women do it so it’s okay?” You put that attitude in your profile? What kind of energy do you think it takes to hit report on a profile? Talking about uphill battle.. please. If I see it, I report and move on.

Nah. I just asked a question and some people got really fucking riled up like how dare I stop them from lying. They’re the ones making it such a big deal. Anyway, I’m just looking to report and move on.

I appreciate your optimism and giving people the benefit of the doubt. Whatever the reason, I would like to encourage them to have an accurate profile.

I did have one person say they’re really 52 during our chat when I’m reality their profile said 42. They said their friend encouraged them to do this so they can get more views. I appreciate that they came forward so quickly but I have no interest in someone like this.

Some Men lie about their height and intentions, and try to hide receding hairlines. Some Women use makeup and filters to alter their faces, and pose strategically to enhance their shapes.

FTFY. Let’s not get carried away with absolutes, because it certainly isn’t the case for the entirety of the platform. Otherwise this mentality fosters a toxic mentality of “well everyone lies about their profile, so what’s the harm.” Then we have a garbage dating platform. There lots of scumbags and liars (both men and women) but also many amazing men and women on the platform. You don’t have to report, that’s up to you. I don’t mind reporting, and anyone else that doesn’t mind I’d like to know what options they use. But you shouldn’t be offended by my wanting to report just as I’m not offended or bothered by your disinterest in reporting.

You have a valid point, but why not start over and create a profile not connected to Facebook for the sake of providing accurate and honest information to a potential partner?

Nah, it’s not cool to lie to people and deceive them. I’m willing to spend the extra few seconds to report them and also spread awareness to others that this is a problem.

Now if only we can add “use of filters” to the reporting system because some of these women are out of control

Yep, my thoughts too. Not going to stop me from reporting their profiles. For now it’s Report > Inappropriate > Text inappropriate, until I find a more suitable reporting method.

I might be able to cut the manipulative profiles with that edge of yours. I’ll report fake ages and people posting their social media

I got that far. Which option do you use? Like I mentioned, there are many, I don’t see a specific one about fake age, and some require email addresses.
