Insider, Red Flags To Look Out For Before You Go On A Date

Your date hasn't posted a new photo in a while

There are obvious caveats but if you can't find any recent photos of them, it could be a sign that they want to deceive you. 

Lisa Holden, online dating expert, said that when she once went to meet her date, he looked nothing like his photos and it threw her off. "He wasn't a bad looking guy, my expectations were simply mismanaged," she said. 

"Days after the date, he asked me out again and I gently told him that I wasn't interested because I felt a little deceived. I didn't want to be rude, but I questioned if the photos on his profile were really him. He responded with a confused emoji and explained that in some photos he had facial hair and in others he did not."

If they refuse to admit to fake or old photos, it's a sign of serious problems and it's probably best to back off.
