A woman is threatening legal action after a man she met through an internet dating agency described her as a "hippo".
Romanians Nicoleta Popescu and Gabriel Malinescu had their first date after two months of on-line flirting and phone calls.
Nicoleta now says she's going to sue Gabriel for emotional distress.
But he says she purposefully deceived him, claiming she weighs eight stone when he reckons she's much heavier.
Gabriel, 33, from Bucharest, told the National newspaper: "I expected to see a blonde, blue-eyed, slim beauty in front of me. But what I got was a gigantic hippo. She told me she weighed eight stones but she was more like 18."
He added: "The passionate embrace I had long-awaited was certainly off the cards when we met."
After a brief encounter, Gabriel told Nicoleta she wasn't his type and he never wanted to hear from her again.
Nicoleta, who's 29, says she's going to sue him for emotional distress.
"He hurt my feelings and has caused me considerable anguish," she said. "He has obviously not heard the saying that beauty is on the inside."

This post makes ME sick; who do I see about suing?
Wasn't that "short people"?
TOO FAT POLKA (She's Too Fat For Me)
by Ross MacLean and Arthur Richardson
Here's a silly ditty, you can sing it right away
Now, here is what you say
So sing it while you may
Here's a silly jingle, you can sing it night or noon
Here's the words, that's all you need
'Cause I just sang the tune:
Oh, I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
I don't want her, you can have her,
She's too fat for me
She's too fat
She's too fat
She's too fat for me
I get dizzy
I get numbo
When I'm dancing
With my Jum-Jum-Jumbo
I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat
She's too fat
She's too fat for me
Can she prance up a hill?
No, no, no, no, no
Can she dance a quadrille?
No, no, no, no, no
Does she fit in your coupe?
By herself she's a group
Could she possibly
Sit upon your knee?
No, no, no
We don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
And she's too fat for me
But she's just right for me
We don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
Yeah, she's too fat,
Much too fat
But she's just right for me
She's so charming
And she's so winning
But it's alarming
When she goes in swimming
We don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
But she's just right for me
So I sure want her, you can't have her
She's just right for me
But she's too fat!
She's not too fat!
She's just right for me!
She's a twosome,
She's a foursome
If she'd lose some
I would like her more some
I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
I don't want her you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat
Much too fat
She's too fat for me
Hey!

Richards writes in "Big Babes and the Blues" (Buf, March 1986):
Years ago some clod wrote a tune called "I Don't Want Her, You
Can Have Her, She's Too Fat For Me." A saxophonist in a
touring band gained acclamation ... by getting up at the song's
end and singing,
Send that fat babe to me, Buster,
The heftier she is, the happier I'll be.
He should have gone to the Tony Robbins seminar first. Then she would have looked just like Gwyneth Paltrow.
Either that or eight furlongs, two fortnights.
My car gets 12 Hectors to the Hogshead.
That might be so, but UGLY goes all of the way to the bone.
