I use my real name, why lie?

If I found out someone I was chatting to, or had met, wasn't even being honest about their name I'd wonder what other things they had lied about.

I just use Bo when I meet someone. There are only a tiny handful know my real name on here. Too many on here are too free with others info so I just stick with Bo mostly.

My view is let me tell my name myself when I feel I know you enough for it and am comfortable with you knowing that bit of information about me. If I'm asked before - it's a fake name.

Once we’re considering a meet then we use our real first names.

Once we're at 'meet' stage, it's likely we'll have exchanged phone numbers, so, naturally by that point, we'll both know each others names. The discrete nature if fab makes it difficult enough, without bringing yet another complicating factor into it.

How does it. I think it's actually good to not give out personal information to people on here you don't know well. Not everyone on here is genuine and I've seen firsthand how much trouble someone can try and cause by getting small amounts of info and putting it together. So no I no longer give my real name to anyone I don't know really well .

I use a fake name until I'm comfortable enough to use my real one. Back in my early Fab days on my previous account when I was way more nieve I used my real one and it led to being stalked on social media by someone who thought just because I'd added him on kik I owed him my time.

Similarly one guy harassed me that much on a well known dating site, after I'd blocked 6 of his accounts on there he somehow found me on here and continued the harassment on here.

I used to be like many commenters who didn't understand why people used fake names until I had that happen, now I fully understand why.

Exactly why I don't as well I had something similar happen to me when I first well he decided he would would out me to my place of work at the time, so learnt fast to be very careful with personal information . I use Bo as I'm _ustbo on here. When I know I can trust someone I will tell them my real name.

Anyone who gives out their info freely and thinks everyone on here is genuine and won't use it against them is just fooling themselves.

There is a lot information about others spread in the background on here and quite a few people have been outed by others on here. It's not right but unfortunately it happens. So me calling myself Bo to anyone I meet suits me if someone has an issue with that they can move on. It's not that I'm lying to anyone but I am keeping my private life private.

As is yours and my perogative to do so. Unfortunately there are some people out there who spoil it for the majority who think because you've spoke to them, or even met them for that matter, they're entitled to a slice of our private life.

I go by a nickname, which is on my profile.

My name is slightly unusual, and I own businesses so I'm incredibly easy to find in a Google search.

I've had a couple of near misses with guys who got wired, so now I don't take the chance.

I have to know you first.

In fact, someone from 10 years ago sent me a message with my name in the subject line and it freaked me out.
