7 people reveal their creepy online dating stories

<p>"I matched with a guy on Tinder, who was an engineering graduate from one of the best colleges in India. We talked for about an hour on call, and he started claiming he's in love with me. I started ignoring him from that very first call and told him there's nothing like that from my side. Somehow, he managed to get my address and started sending me gifts at my place. It became a trouble to hide all this from my family, and I had a huge argument with him. But he's a psycho and still keeps pestering me with calls and messages. I have vowed to not even look for friends online now." Neha Sharma, 26<br></p>

<p>"I met a bong girl online who was residing in Delhi. She was sweet and we developed a good bonding. We used to catch up after office, watch movies and have a good time together. I fell for her after seven months and confessed my love. She told me she had a terrible break up before meeting me online and was using me to keep herself distracted. I feel like I have been used for somebody else's entertainment!" Tushar Mathur, 28<br></p>

<p>"I talked to a guy for around 15 days on a dating app. Later, I got to know he's my best friend's ex, and had created a fake profile just for the sake of troubling me." Mansi Kapoor, 27<br></p>

<p>"I found a really handsome guy online and started crushing over him. We started talking and it was going pretty well. A few weeks later, he confessed he had a girlfriend and was interested in a threesome. I was taken aback, big time! I understand it is his personal choice, but it would have been nice if he'd revealed his real intention early on, instead of misleading me on for so long." Jyotsna Soni, 27.<br></p>

<p>"I became friends with a girl through a popular dating app, and started liking her. We agreed to meet on a Sunday, and the date went pretty well. She left after two hours and told me she was returning home. I had no plans ahead, so I decided to stroll at the same place for some time. About 40 minutes later, I saw her sitting with some other guy at a coffee shop, and chit-chatting. Later she confessed, she had planned two dates for that day and loved the 'thrilling' experience." Mohit Tiwari, 24<br></p>

<p>“This happened almost 15 years back when we didn’t have Facebook or Twitter. I met a guy in a Yahoo group chat and we exchanged our mail ids. I never used my real name and he was using a fake account too. After chatting for almost a month, we decided to meet in a restaurant. What I was not prepared was that the guy was my uncle and we were both shocked when I (he was already there) approached the table we had booked for the date!” Ahana Bhatt, 30.<br></p>

<p>“I met a girl after chatting with her online for around two months. She was a college student and lived in a hostel. She selected a posh restaurant for our first date. As soon as she reached, she started ordering food and never asked me what I wanted. And we ended up ordering food for almost ten people. But the worst was when she packed all the food for her friends after we are done eating. I could not ask her to share the bill since she was still a student. I felt cheated.” Priyank Mathur, 36.<br></p><p>(Images: Shutterstock)</p>
