So yeah, I basically just got catfished.
I started talking to this girl a month ago in a NY thread, traded pics, shared some audio, and hit it off. We talked for a little bit and then kind of fizzled out. She messaged me again a couple of weeks ago, and I asked to meet up. We would make plans and something would happen for a couple of days and she had told me she was going away for a week. So, she goes away but we end up calling each other and talking, a LOT, watching tv shows and stuff, here I am thinking I'm flirting with a cute girl who lives nearby.
Well when the time of her vacation was up, she basically came clean to me. I don't know if catfish is the right term. But anyways, she told me she lives across the country, and that she isn't the age she told me she was, and that the photos she sent me were fake. Yeah.
So anyways we had a great time talking but I can't do long distance or anything like that. And now I feel kind of bad turning her down and stuff.
Any advice on where to go from here?
Thank you
Also,
>We would make plans and something would happen for a couple of days
To clarify that sentence I mean we would make plans but then something would happen to cause her to 'have to cancel'

Turn her down, acknowledge guilt, then go about your day.

i guess thats fair...this conversation has been going on for about an hour now with me explaining to her...when is it time to just say sorry goodbye and walk away?

Uhh right now. Don't even fuckin reply. Why on earth would you even continue to bother with someone across the country who is lying about their identity? Come on op have some smarts.

Ask for a real picture? ask why she lied?
Hell people make some dumb decisions early on in a relationship. Give her a chance to recover.
