What are the chances of this happening?

I hooked up with a very handsome guy recently, who I realised when looking at his photos on a dating site, looked very similar to a guy I knew, except he had a different first name, occupation and accent. What are the odds that I was catfished?

Were the pics the same? All you said is that they look similar

[TatteredAngel]

They look similar. Very similar. I didn’t think about it at the time.

[TatteredAngel]

Same eye colour, hair style, face shape, with everything on the face the same size and shape.

I guess its safe just to do a quick google reverse image search before meeting

[TatteredAngel]

I’ve met him. I guess I could try that. Good idea 😊

[Billlewis]

I think it's possible but. unlikely

[TatteredAngel]

There were things he had in common, similar appearance, similar amount of sexual experience (a virgin).

It is a 50–50 shot with men online.

I guess there’s no point in worrying about it, as it’s already happened. It’s just that if he was the same guy, word spreads and also, I was wanting to hook up with someone…who wasn’t this other guy.

Catfishing is so common that on this site last year someone was using the photos of a client's former client. Reverse image search is your friend.
