No joke: guy tried to pull this with me, except I’m not blind. I do, however, have this thing where if you change your look (new hair, heavy makeup, whatever), my brain basically registers you as a different person.
So we met on a dating site, had gone out, I wasn’t really feeling it, so I wished him well and moved on. Matched with another guy almost 2 months later, and he seemed cool so we set up a date.
It took me a while, but I swore I knew him from somewhere, just couldn’t put my finger on it, but then I realized: he smelled familiar. That’s how I figured it out.
Dude darkened his hair, wore sunglasses, swear to god: wore fake facial piercings, and changed his overall style.
He “wanted another chance” and wanted to show that he “could change for [me]!”
No. No no no. No thank you. This ain’t a romantic comedy with you in the starring role. Goodbye.

It’s sometimes called face blindness but is also known by Prosopagnosia.
It’s a real, scientifically named thing?? Wild!
There’s a well known (TV & radio famous) scientist in Australia that has this condition, super strange to imagine what it would be like only recognise people by their clothes/styling, mannerisms etc. https://startsat60.com/media/entertainment/dr-karl-face-blindness-prosopagnosia-anhs-brush-with-fame
HAHA I love this!!
But it’s absolutely understandable (to me, at least).
Lots of women especially seem to be so versatile. Can seemingly switch looks at will! So cool.
But also so confusing LOL

“Fickle females love sneaky creeps, as long as they’re good-looking! Tee-hee!”
Fuck off with that shit.
Creep shit is creep shit. End of story.
You’re the kind of person women warn each other about.

No. I think you’re just assuming other people would do the creepy shit you would. This would never have even crossed my mind.
Things that never happened
Lying for what? Clout? On Lemmy?
