Short story: I met a guy (in real life, not online), we hit it off, been out 4 or 5 times over the last 3 weeks. We have a great time together, interesting conversations, and are still getting to know each other in good time (i.e., no pressure from either of us to rush into a relationship). He has an enthusiastic and creative personality, active social life with a number of friends - so seems essentially normal though with a strong personality. I'm really enjoying our time together and could see it leading somewhere. We are meeting again tonight. Then this afternoon he sends me a group picture taken at the event where we met, in which he photoshopped his face onto the other people in the picture so it is just me and him.

I am somewhat freaked out. Not sure if this is supposed to be funny or if I should take it as a sign to run, far away. Thoughts?

Meh...sounds like he's just goofing off to me...trying to be cutesy. I wouldn't worry about it unless he's giving you other red flags.

Isn't afraid to tell you what he thinks of you.

Sounds like an attempt at humor.

If he starts Photoshopping your head onto bodies of crime scene victims, I'd run away.

Who else thought this thread was going to be about someone who altered their own photo on their profile to try to make themselves look more attractive?

That's what I thought!

I think he's just playing around. Perhaps PhotoShop is a favorite toy of his.

Now if he starts pressuring you to cut other people out of your life ... that would be a different story.

But that's not what he's done here!
