I got catfished

r/

I just got catfished by this girl i was talking to for a couple of weeks and we finally went out for coffee. Turns out she looked nothing like her photos which she sent and they were from years ago. I still treated her like i would have anyway and the date went fine but i was very shaken up that i got catfished. I didnt connect with her emotionally either which was the last straw. Unfortunately she said i was the perfect guy for her.
Im not someone who judges others by looks but i did ask her for her instagram which she said she didnt have and the few photos she sent were all i had to guess on what she looked like. I ghosted her afterwards when i was sure that i had no attachment whatsoever but i didnt let her feel that i didnt find her attractive at all and that was why i was ghosting her. I feel guilty and disgusted by myself that i ghosted someone based on looks but i just wasnt feeling anything at all.
I need second opinions and what someone else would have done if they were in my shoes….

    In the future, video call before dates since someone not looking like their photos is a dealbreaker for you.
