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.

Matilda is such a hatfish, I hadn't ever seen her with her hat off but when she did finally take it off it really wasn't good.

Hatfish

A guy who looks completely different (sexy) while wearing a hat or cap. When they take it off its a totally different story!

He was cute, until he took his hat off, he's a hatfish!

Hatfish

A man who is wearing a hat in every picture of his online dating profile and thus hiding the fact he is bald. Only for the unsuspecting woman to find out about said baldness in real life.

‘I went on a date and he was bald’ surely you already knew this prior to the date? No he had a hat on in all his pictures. ‘Oh no he was a hatfish’

hatfish

A hatfish is a boy or girl who looks very good when wearing a hat, but when people see them without the hat its like they're a completely different uglier person.

I saw the boy from the party the other day, and he was way uglier. I can't believe he hatfished me.

Hatfished

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 - she was being hatfished."
