id="description_0"><h2>Whatever the Dermatologist Told You</h2><p>Oh you have a weird rash? Terrible bacne? Congratulations, those are just about the least sexy things to discuss ever. Discuss it with your mom, your friends, your sister. But NOT the new dude you just started seeing. He doesn’t want to hear it. Would you?</p><p><a

id="description_1"><h2>The Dream You Had Last Night</h2><p>OMFG is there anything worse than someone describing a dream in all of it’s meandering nonsense? “And then there was this walrus but he, like, wasn’t a walrus but he was also kind of a walrus and then there was this big chili pepper--” I just bored myself writing that sentence. Imagine how your date feels.</p><p><a

id="description_2"><h2>Your Period</h2><p>“Sorry, it’s my week off,” is my go-to statement about Aunt Flo--and that’s all I say. No discussion of cramps or tampons or ruined underwear. Menstruation is such a foreign thing for boys that trying to wrap their head around it makes the feel disgusted, terrified and confused all at the same time. Save the period talk for your girlfriends.</p><p><a

id="description_3"><h2>That Thing He Did Wrong...8 Months Ago</h2><p>The golden rule of fighting is to avoid bringing up past crap. If you’ve already argued and made up about something ages ago, leave it buried where it belongs.  Keep your current tiffs on current topics.</p><p><a

id="description_4"><h2>How Much You Hate His Mom</h2><p>Everyone knows that you can bitch about your own family 24/7 but if someone else dares to chime in and agree? Murder! This can be hard to avoid if he’s always griping about his family--you naturally want to agree and support him--but that could put you on the losing end of a mom-girlfriend battle royale.</p><p><a

id="description_5"><h2>Your Recent Bout of Food Poisoning</h2><p>There’s something about being sick that makes us want to share every gory detail with everyone we meet but please for the love of God keep any food poisoning deets to yourself on a date. It’s basically the anti-Viagra.</p><p><a

id="description_6"><h2>All The Things You Hate About Yourself</h2><p>We all have that friend who can’t stop asking if she looks fat. It’s annoying isn’t it? But hey, we’re girls, we understand. Guys do not. They don't want to hear you obsess about your wobbly bits or too-small boobs. Take a cue from the One Direction song and realize that they aren’t looking at you through a critical lens--they love all those little things and you should too!</p><p><p><a

id="description_7"><h2>His Skinny Calves/Small Biceps/Man Boobs</h2><p>This is not a joke, people. I once made the mistake of pointing out an ex’s skinny calves--BIG MISTAKE. That’s like circling a girl’s cellulite, apparently. Guys, like girls, have a whole list of things they hate about themselves that never even occur to us--scrawny forearms?? What?--so be careful what you tease him about. It just may be his Achilles heel.</p><p><a

id="description_8"><h2>His Ex</h2><p>The more you talk about his ex girlfriend, the more he’ll assume that you’re threatened by her. And that will make you look weak and petty. He’s with you, not her, so unless there’s a real tangible reason to be all twisted up about her (like they’re still hanging out, he won’t put away her pics, etc) treat her as if she’s a non-factor.</p><p><a

id="description_9"><h2>Your Ex</h2><p>I talk about my exes so much I wrote a book about them but trust me, the guy you’re currently dating wants no part of your past. Like, none. It’s a ridick sentiment, but guys like to try to convince themselves that you never loved/kissed/bedded ANY male before them. Do you want to hear the ins and out of his last conquest? Didn’t think so.</p><p><a

Besides ganking other people’s photos, obviously.</p><p>Another thing that bugged me was the username. Shorty_22? Do I look like I use the word shorty? I am not <strong>Justin Bieber</strong>, people. Um NOR AM I 34. Like, not even close.</p><p>I sent the site an email asking them to remove the profile or at least the picture, but in the meantime, <strong>I took matters into my own hands</strong> and made a fake profile of a dude to try and Catfish her right back!</p><p>My guy friend Matt helped me fill out the rest of the profile (I SO WISH I’d screencapped it, curses!) but basically I talked about my love of race cars and how I had a <strong>dog named Pistachio</strong>. I decided to name him Jarret. Then I sent Shorty_22 a message, which was kind of the strangest part about this whole saga: trying to hit on a girl, as a guy.</p><p>Being a girl, I always assume that it’s so easy to chat up a female&#8211;just say hi! Compliment her! Be yourself!&#8211;but when you’re the one doing it, <strong>it’s confusing</strong>. And I’m not even actually a guy! And I don’t even know/like this Shorty_22! How is this my life? Anyway. After about 10 attempts and rewrites, wracking my brain about what I liked to hear when I was online dating, I wrote:<br
/> <em>What’s up, saw your profile and thought you have a great smile <img
src='http://cdn3.gurl.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Did you grow up in NV? I’m born and bred but I try to travel a lot, see what else is out there. How about yourself? Hope you’re having a great week!</em></p><p>I felt so lame. Not just because Fake Jarret was hitting on Fake Shallon but because he was doing it so clumsily.</p><p>Sadly, Shorty never responded. OH I’M SORRY FAKE SHALLON, IS JARRET STOLL NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU? And what about poor Pistachio?</p><p>About a week later, OkCupid removed Shorty_22’s profile so I deleted Fake Jarret’s account too&#8211;the last thing I wanted was some poor girl to fall in love with a <strong>Catfish</strong>.</p><p>All in all, as irked as I was that someone had stolen my pic, I felt really sad for that person. Whoever they are IRL can’t be so bad that they need to invent a whole new person. I’m sure that Shorty_22 is a perfectly nice, lovable girl who will DEF have better luck in life if she just <strong>owns who she is</strong>.</p><p>Love is like sales&#8211;if you don’t believe in your own product, how can you expect anyone else to buy what you’re selling? Hopefully, whoever Shorty_22 really is <strong>learned her lesson</strong> and stuck to the truth when it comes to online dating&#8211;and stays far away from my photos!</p><p><strong>Have you ever pretended to be someone you&#8217;re not online?

But think about how you would feel if your ex rebounded with whoever’s poster happens to be on your bedroom wall. Do you want to picture your ex with, say, Taylor Swift or Rihanna? <strong>Horrible, right?</strong></p><p>I know. And that’s exactly why I dated my ex-boyfriend’s hero.</p><p>J was probably the <strong>worst boyfriend</strong> to ever walk planet earth. He seemed to completely hate having me around. He refused to hold hands with me in public, cheated and one time let me walk into the street knowing an oncoming cab was speeding towards me.</p><p>“I was curious if you’d see it coming or not,” he shrugged after. I think he may have been a <strong>sociopath</strong>.</p><div

I won’t say his name, but he’s <strong>a pro hockey player</strong> and J was beyond obsessed with hockey. I’d grown up playing hockey actually but by the time J and I dated, I’d forgotten all about the sport and didn’t care one bit. That didn’t stop J from gushing about Athlete X and his latest stats and game and even his equipment. Athlete X was like the third party in our relationship&#8211;unless of course you count <strong>all the girls</strong> he cheated on me with. Loser.</p><p>Eventually, I found a pair of panties in his bed. <strong>Ugly panties</strong>, too. And finally, finally, FINALLY broke up with him. Flash forward two months&#8211;I was an editor for a men’s magazine when my coworker casually mentioned that he was interviewing Athlete X.</p><p>“OMG Athlete X!” I chirped, jumping up from my chair, gushing about how much I loved him and rattling off his stats. No one in the office had ever heard me say boo about sports until that moment, and here I was rattling off info about Athlete X that I didn’t even realize I knew.</p><div

Later that night I get a text from Athlete X! <strong>One thing lead to another</strong> and we began talking, then hanging out, then full on dating. At first, I was only doing it to spite J and oh, I made sure that he knew. Cryptic Facebook posts, vague Tweets about Athlete X’s team, an Instagram pic of X’s jersey number doodled on my hand inside a heart&#8211;oh yes. J knew. <strong>And it worked.</strong></p><p>“You f’ing BITCH,” he wrote in a scathing email out of nowhere. “I don’t know what you think you’re doing but STAY AWAY FROM ATHLETE X!” You’d think I was sleeping with <strong>his wife</strong> or something.</p><p>I can’t lie&#8211;I felt kind of <strong>guilty and icky</strong>. I wondered if by dating Athlete X, who was terribly foxy, I had ensured that J and I could never be friends or even bump into each other and have a pleasant catch-up convo.</p><p>Then I came to my senses and realized that it was J’s <strong>crapbag behavior</strong> that had started this whole thing&#8211;all I’d done is finished it.</p><p><strong>What do you think&#8211;is this the meanest thing you’ve heard of a girl doing to an ex?

Check out the top 10—and believe me I could’ve done more—most awful things my dates have actually had the nerve to say on a first date. And bible, I’m not making these up.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><b>10. “How the f*** do I know what’s in a matzo ball? What am, I your Jewish liaison?&#8221;</b></p><p>This charmer was going on and on about how much he loves matzo ball soup, which I’ve never had, so I asked him what exactly a matzo ball entailed. After this little exchange I told him that no, he’s not my Jewish liaison—he’s not going to be my <i>anything</i>.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><b>9. “I try not to date girls your age.

And BTW, he had just finished telling me about how he had his ears pinned back as a kid because people called him Dumbo. Now I guess they just call him Doucher.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><b>7. “….And, that was the first time I had a penis in my mouth!”</b></p><p>Note to self: never <i>ever </i>playfully ask a guy to tell you a secret. You just may get an answer like this.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><b>6. “I mean, don’t you think you’re what’s wrong with society?”</b></p><p>Because I’m an editor at<i> Star</i> magazine, which, OK fine, isn’t exactly going to earn me a Pulitzer, but I like our mag and so do our readers.
