Cause it wouldn't have been a harmless prank at that point. It would have been me conning him into buying me dinner.

I also thought about having a friend of mine who doesn't know the prankee come to the bar where we were to meet and say "Hi, are you Kevin? I'm Tina" but figured it would probably get violent at that point.

Depends on your friend. Doing this to some people could be funny but doing to others would be mean. If he is someone who is already unsure of himself or perhaps depressed and results in really hurting the guy then it's not really funny at all. If he is the type who cam laugh at himself and move on then it would be funny.

Also it depends on what your intent was. Were you honenstly doing something you thought you could both laugh at or were you being malicious.

Wasn't trying to cockblock him at all. Hell, I was the one who talked the guy into signing up for yahoo personals in the first place.

You need friends that have a sense of humor.

That's just it, I figured no harm done, we'd both get a good chuckle out of it. Didn't intend for it to get out of hand, if I wanted to hurt the guy I sure wouldn't have told him the truth the next day.

Right but then you proceded to destroy any desire of his to use it. I'm leaning more to the "keeping him for yourself" camp.

I think to make it up to him you should actually have sex with him just as he was hoping.

Thanks for opening my eyes guys, you know I never was attracted to men before, but now I can see that I'm clearly a homosexual. Thanks!

I used to think practical jokes were funny but I realized that usually you are laughing at someone else's expense.

Yes. That's what makes them funny.
