I wouldn't blame her at all, especially since y'all met online and not through mutual friends.

Guys on here complain about women all the time, but a woman is far, far more likely to be harmed by a male than vice versa. She is just being safe and smart.

Yeah, I missed the met online part. That doesn't really compute for me. I don't do social media and wouldn't go out with or try and meet a girl online.

Why should she trust you if she barely knows you?

BTW, her friend is a hair stylist FWIW.



if it was the girl that you are seeing that did the check it's somewhat understandable, but seeing as it appears that it was the cock-blocking, nosy-assed, wacked out, hairdresser friend that did it, I'd cut and run

btw: that friend will not be going away, she's probably a controlling bull dike that is really trying to lure you into their scheme of hetero male mutilation, they'll try to talk you into a threesome, and you'll eagerly agree, then they will tie you to your bed and leave you with a hot curling iron stuck up your arse

No. Why would I have a problem w/a a girl that didn't know me very well doing that? She is just trying to be safe. shite, this should add points for her b/c now you know she isn't a complete fool.

Woth today's technology back ground checks are a normal occurance especially for people you meet online. I used to do it in the form of asking friends that were from the same hometown as the girl. She's from city-A, I have a friend from there, so I'd ask if there is anything I should know. Now, it's all done I love I guess. It's not a big deal.

That hair dresser friend however, RUN!!!!

Wouldn't you encourage one of your female friends to run a background check on a guy they met on line?

I'd feel a little weirded out and mildly violated. I can understand it, but that still doesn't mean I won't feel those feelings.

Phhhhhbt. I usually can find what I need without running a background check.

You kinda agree to being "checked" out when you put yourself out there. I think the girl is DAF for telling you her friend did it for her or whatever. It's not cute, it's another form of being smart/safe this day and age.

I was thinking the same thing. No trust has been established at this point.

She's not very bright though by telling someone that a background check was run on them. It does feel like a violation, which is why I don't go broadcasting it when I do it.

Wait I must have missed that her friend ran the background check and not her. Yeah, I think I'd have a problem with that. If you are interested, do something about that friend. Otherwise that friend will be a problem for you.

Did she bring this up to you?

"Hey, so my friend 'Bitch-Hairdresser' ran a background check on you... What do you have to say for yourself about this 10-year old MIP?!"
