@PPPSSC in both of my examples the lonely guy is surprised but still falls in love with her. Though Lois was angry about her knowing Chris personally.

That'd be Subverted Dating Service Disaster (ie. it looks at first like the trope, but then...)
A lonely guy goes on the Internet and accesses Craigslist. One Gilligan Cut later the girl in question is a hardcore Dominatrix.
- Supernews: The Craigslist genie: After giving a guy plenty of misfortune when all he intended was to sell his couch. The genie invokes this, claiming her to be a hooker.
- Family Guy: Played straight with Mistress Vieda in "Encyclopedia Griffin".
