Hatfishing

When someone on a dating site wears a hat in all their pictures to conceal the fact that they are bald.

This guy is wearing either a cowboy hat or a bandana in every picture. I think he is hatfishing me. He said to send a selfie so I texted him a picture of Betty White.

Hatfishing

Hatfishing is a practice where a man purposely deceives a potential romantic partner by wearing a hat on every date to hide his rapidly receding hairline.

"She went on dozens of dates with Tom before it occurred to her that she had never seen him without his Ducati hat on. Her friends were right - he was hatfishing her."
