Distance and Truth

You and he being in the same country doesn't mean he's telling the truth or even that he looks like what he is saying or shows you in pictures. Using fake pictures or a fake facebook account is not that difficult.

The reason they do that (lie about who they are and what they look like) is either because they are so insecure they can't be realistic OR (this is probably more likely) they expect you will forgive them and give them a chance anyways now you both have come so far as to meet.

You may be surprised about how well that works.

I just don't think this is worth your time.
