I believe that it is really easy for people to misrepresent themselves online. It is very easy for people to write down a very attractive description of themselves in an online profile and for people to believe it. The problem with online dating profile is there is no truth behind it. There is no one to tell you if that person is telling the truth or if they are lying. I believe that it is very unethical for people to misrepresent themselves online. How would you like it if you were very interested in someone online only to find out that everything you know about that person is a lie. I believe that if you are interested in finding love you should tell the truth about who you are and what you like. If you do not tell people the truth there is no way you are going to find someone who likes you for who you actually are.

  1. Hey Lauren, I really liked your post this week because it’s so true. People lie about themselves online all the time. Online it is so much easier to make yourself look like someone you're not. On a dating profile you can put a fake picture and no one will know, and in person you cant hide your real looks. It will not be a good relationship if it starts with a lie. There are some online dating sights now that have meetings in person so you can make sure you are talking to a real person, I think this is a good step in online dating.
