Today, I discovered that the man I have been talking to on a dating site is actually my ex-boyfriend. He created a fake profile and made me fall for someone that doesn't exist. We got on better anonymously than we ever did in 3 years together. FML

what exactly did he think he'd achieve from this? It's pretty obvious that you'd find out who it actually was at some point

He seems like a douchebag. Did he have any intentions of getting back together or was this just for 'fun'?

Why would he even do this? Honestly it wastes his time, not just yours. Im glad to hear he's an ex

Pretty sure ive seen an fml identical to this one.

Sue him for internet fraud! That'll teach him a lesson.

lession being its not worth spending lots of money sueing for petty things you wont get anything out of?

Man sounds like he needs to get a life.

wow. what a fucktard. He clearly needs an attitude adjustment... with a hammer.

One that's really messed up and two how creepy is that? Whether he did it for fun or revenge, that's still a lot of effort for an ex. Make sure to tell all your friends what a creepy douche he is and word will catch on. Also report him on the site!

That is a REALLY weird thing for someone to do.

This is why I avoided online dating when I was single from the fear that someone would fake who they were. So sorry you went through that. Maybe take a break from it, someone tends to come along when you're not actively looking. Good luck!

Wait is he "Now" an ex?? like were you dating while you had your online romance? That is what I am wondering and if so you both deserve it. Because your not faith full and he's just as bad. And was it really a "Fake" account?

I think she means that they were together for three years, then broke up. At some point after this she met a guy on a dating site, and it turned out to be the ex-boyfriend pretending to be someone else.
