How To Tell If Your Friend's Internet Girlfriend Is Not Real

If your friend's girlfriend "just loves giving blowjobs; if anything, her love of giving blowjobs has *increased* since we've been together"...
...That girlfriend is: not real.

I'm also suspicious of any guy who claims his girlfriend's favorite flowers are roses. Because I don't know of any woman whose FAVORITE flower is the rose. And white roses? Srsly? Could that be more of a cliché?

(Okay now I'm sure all the male DTers will tell me that no, really, their wives/girlfriends/mistresses/etc. favorite flowers really are white roses. Really.)

I myself like snapdragons, which are impossible to give as cut flowers because they wilt almost immediately. So my better half is off the hook about those things.

Ronaiah Tuiasosopo and Manti Te'o are lovers. Ronaiah's father is a pastor and they are big in religion. Te'o's a mormon and a football stud. So they make this story up to throw everyone off on the gay thing. Ronaiah and Te'o break up.. so they create this death thing as the death of their relationship. Come december Ronaiah wants to get back at Te'o and threatens to expose the fake gf thing. That's when Te'o makes up the "i was duped" story and goes to Notre Dame with it.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

it's a better story than what's been put out in the last few days.


and risk, i'm with you...except no flower is my favorite. hubby knows not to buy me any, i view fresh flowers as a waste of money. dead within days. i can buy books with that money, thank you very much!

and isn't it funny timing that he realized it was 'all a hoax' right after the heisman voting concluded?

Not at all.

I realize you are a very biased fan and can't open your mind enough to believe it, but it is not a reach to think that Te'o could be gay and this fake woman was his beard.

I honestly think this scenario is quite plausible, and if it isn't Te'o brought it on himself. The facts remain that a NFL locker room may in fact be about the least tolerable place in the world for a gay man. A fairly high 1st round draft pick I think it is safe to say may not want to be an openly gay man in the NFL or society. The fake, then dead girlfriend could be his beard for his entire NFL career in his mind as to never having to have interest in any other women as none would measure up to his "dead" love of his life. It makes more sense than seeking Heisman votes I think. You've got religion involved....a Mormon kid at a Catholic university. Lots of it makes sense...I'm buying Antitrust's rumor as well and sticking to it, I think it makes the most sense.

[Danzig]

i can understand the faking of a g/f in that situation (my daughter was a friends 'date' at his folks holiday dinner before)...but making up car wrecks, life-threatening injuries, cancer, etc...that just seems to be taking things waaaaaay too far.
when was the car wreck supposedly? was that last years' heisman-vote getting effort?

No, what is dumb is creating a fake girlfriend when you are a popular nationally exposed football player.

I would also say people who believe that he wasnt in on the hoax are also dumb. Or at least incredibly stupid. I bet you believed Lance Armstrong also when he said he didnt cheat.

i know i sure believed him... no, wait. i never paid attention, cause it was cycling. yeah, the feeling wasn't belief, but apathy!


what is truly dumb is someone not only creating a fake g/f, but perpetuating the story and adding in tragic circumstances...and a death to boot. the dumbest part? thinking no one would ever catch on.
