''How old is your picture on your Tinder?''
''I don't mean to be rude, but in your photos you're a lot skinnier.''
''You look kinda more...voluminous.''
''Are you pregnant?''
''I'm not too sure about online dating anymore.''
''I'm just a little aggitated, when you expect something to be some way and it's not.''
''I feel really bad about this...I'm actually married.''
''I need to use the restroom real quickly,'' he said before disappearing.
And the one guy who stayed to hear the truth: ''Hold on...so you're not fat?''
Now let's see how the ladies react to a guy that is much heavier than expected.
''I didn't recognize you. You don't, uh...you don't look like your picture that much.''
''I didn't recognize you right away when I walked in.''
''How old was that picture?'' asked the woman who disappeared before sitting down.
''Oh you are, you're picky? Like you like a fit girl? That's, I'm not gonna lie, a little surprising.''

What would you do if you showed up for a date and the person you were meeting was significantly heavier than in their pictures?

According to this social experiment, women would be much more likely to give it a shot. To do this experiment, a group of friends said they hired two attractive actors--one male and one female--and then set them up on dates using the dating app Tinder. The catch? Their profile pictures were real, but on the date, they wore fat suits.

What did the guys do?

Only one of the five guys stuck around after seeing that his date was heavier than anticipated. Their initial reactions were mostly making comments about her weight and being angry that they were lied to. Their excuses to leave covered everything from "I need to use the restroom" to "I'm actually married."

What would the ladies do?

The women were confused and hesitant when they first saw their "date," and one made a comment that she was surprised that he claimed to be picky about women. One was angry and disappeared immediately, but the other four stuck around and gave him a shot, even when he was rude.

In addition to the one that didn't finish the date, one turned him down for a second outing. The others either kissed him or made plans to see him again.

The experiment and videos were created by Simple Pickup, a group that provides dating tips and advice for men. They also post a lot of social experiment and prank videos. On their website they explain their mission: "We're a group of 3 regular guys - Jesse, Kong, & Jason, out to show the world that any guy can get a girl, simply by being themselves."

Were you surprised by these reactions? What would you have done? Let us know in the comments.
