Similar to being “catfished,” a person gets “goldfished” when...the person they’ve been talking to via “online” etc is, indeed, the right person, they just promised everything in the world, gold, glitter and diamonds, and after meeting....they brought nothing but empty promises.
“We been chattin’ online these last 8 months, he promised me that he’d treat me like a queen. Now that we’ve met, he been nothin’ but jealous and controlling.”
“Girl, you done been goldfished.”
