Question:
Which sign(s) do you believe are most likely to LIE about who they are ONLINE?

Most likely to create fake profiles, steal photos & live double lives to win over a Love Interest?

I'm inclined to say Neptune Influence too. As cliche as it sounds . But I think Neptune really would be at least part of the problem.

That said, it does happen, and I have my ideas (one an air sign another a water sign) that would but I'm not going to say...too likely to cause offense to those who have that sign.

You can't generalize with signs.....

However, "Catfishing" is still quite an issue online. Which is why I pretty much take what everyone tells me online on a grain of salt until I have definitive proof of who they are and what they are (i.e. if they post pictures stating that something is theirs, they need to be in those said pictures, etc.)

My personal experience with "Catfish" type people has been mostly Earth signs to tell you the truth (common ones being Taurus and Capricorn; Maybe because they feel like their worth lingers around a sense of personal reputation and materialistic gains and they will exaggerate those said gains to gain personal validation of their own worth.

I can't understand how someone can fall in love with someone they never met in person... Don't get me wrong I understand the friendship, but not "love"

If your talking with some one for more than a month and they refuse to actually meet, something is wrong...

I personally could never fall in live with someone I've never met...
Going years of thinking it's an actually relationship with zero personal contact, is just blows my mind...

I have Uranus in h7, it still wouldn't work on me...
I need actually touch and affection and spending one on one time...
But that's just me...

This perplexes me also! How you can fall deeply IN LOVE with a person whom you've never been around. Sounds ridiculous.

So which Sign do you feel is most likely to *be* catfished? Easy to lie to or deceive?

To be completely frank? Yes. It can happen. It (kind of) happened to me. Only once (8 years ago) and never since. We became extremely fast (albeit complicated) friends. It wasn't a catfishing as much as it was a 'You've Got Mail' type thing; I knew him as himself as an acquaintance, and through his anonymous online identity, he was my best friend and co-writer.

The whole thing was completely insane. Of course, he still in Phoenix; I was in Dallas, but moved to Los Angeles in '08, after we briefly decided to try long-distance dating, but failed to actually meet. Long damned story. I broke his heart, he broke mine tenfold. Still hasn't forgiven me, even as he's admitted it's illogical, but he's never felt pain like that. He threw his usual extreme caution to the wind, and misunderstandings ensued and intervened and chaos reigned. We're still close, but it's hard. Damned hard. I love him more than I know how to express. It's just how it is. How it will always be.

Thank you for sharing your story. I'm sorry that there's so much pain between you and this guy. I hope the best for you.

I guess that stands to reason, though, as he's my twin flame. That's something neither of us can deny, no matter how much we deny everything else. Just the way it is.

I understand that people have long-distance relationships. I'm aware that ANY of us can develop feelings for someone we've met online. I just don't think it's very wise though to fall *in love* with people we've NEVER MET. Make sure they are legit first!

Thanks, LA. Yeah. It's damned, damned rough. The feelings were intense (and antagonistic) from the start. SO much energy. SO much chemistry. We didn't know what to do with it.

So, for 5 years, we were creative partners, and best friends. There was always this undercurrent, but nobody really wanted to touch it. He'd occasionally dip a toe, I might be receptive - but I was still terrified. But by year 3, the 'soulmate' had been tossed around a bit - oddly in response to our composite. Heh. He'd said it first. I'd commented - 'you know, it's interesting,' and he'd responded, (not knowing a damned thing about composites) 'that we're soulmates?' He, was of course, using it in the sense that's most commonly used; meaning twin souls. Hell, I don't know what I thought at that point - except, I KNOW who you are. WHY won't you admit it to me?

So, about 6 months in, I knew who he was. It wasn't hard to decipher. The digital trail was there, and I just followed it. He explained ALL of that much later (in 2011) and expressed genuine remorse for the lengths he went to in order to protect himself, and how much it meant that I stuck around.

Sigh. What the hell else could I do? When it comes to this guy, NOTHING has been logical. Or even sane-seeming.

We try not to see each other often; it's just hard. We met on the air (he was a guest, I called in) in '07. Less than 30 seconds in, we were bantering like a classic variety show comedy team. Like Burns and Allen. It was ... amazing.

We didn't officially meet - face to face - until 2010. I'd become engaged by that point. (Long, long story.) And he was hoping that by meeting me as himself, my acquaintance, all of the tension that existed between us online, in our anonymity, wouldn't be there. That we could start fresh. Ha. As he put it in his 2011 confession to me (on his birthday), 'I don't know why I thought that. I guess I just hoped.' I'm sure he was telling me then because we were going to start working together the following year. It would just be there under the surface, complicating everything anyway.

We've drawn comparisons to two of the characters on the HBO drama 'Newsroom', (Will McAvoy and Mackenzie McHale, for those who've seen it). A lot more actually came out since we're fans of it and watched the last few episodes of the second season together.

These days ... we're trying to rebuild. Slowly. While we still enjoying seeing each other (the last time was January 2012), it's just too hard for both of us. We used to be in communication every day - in some form - for 8 years. I broke communication entirely after shelving the show and returning to a previous project last March. He's never honest with me about how much he hurts, and so I never know.

So I'm trying to resolve some other things right now, and he's getting his life in order. We both are. Some day, heh, likely in our forties, we'll do our show, and maybe we'll both be ready for the intensity of this connexion. For now, we just never stray too far while doing everything else we've got to do.

It gets easier, but it never gets easy - if that makes sense. I can devote my time and attention to other people and matters, and love deeply, and feel intensely - but he never fails to 'get' me. Every time.
