Hi sexy-legs Gwendolyn! (Missouri water rocks!) ;)
It does, even if it occasionally needs to be shocked! (And I am showing off my SHOES, not my legs!) (Evil grin.)
Particularly beware if they show only headshots in their profiles.
What about men who have NO pics on their profiles--how can we judge anything about them?
As for the weight issue, I am about 15-20 pounds overweight, and I don't know how much I weigh because I refuse to keep a scale in my house. I post full shots of myself on my profile.
I am not a BBW (a term which I detest, anyway, because it insinuates that all fat women are beautiful, and they aren't). Considering the number of obese people in the US, I am much nearer the "norm" than are "average" weight people! There is no deceit in my choice of "a few extra pounds."
I have met or talked to men (and women do the same thing) who have lied about height, age, and consider 1/2 of one semester as "some college." A male friend of mine was contacted by a woman who posted that she had a "graduate degree," which to her, meant she had graduated from high school. Another man told me that he saw no reason to change his 5+ year old pics because he "hadn't changed any," but the posted pics didn't have the deep crow's feet wrinkles running from his eyes to his cheeks.
Sometimes the "lies" are a lack of comprehension, but everyone knows his/her birthdate and even if he/she occasionally forgets how many years have passed since that birth occurred, you type in the year and it automatically displays the age!
No brainer.
If a man or woman lies about height or weight, it is apparent as soon as people meet; most lies about age are likewise readily apparent. | |

Some scroll choices get inadvertently selected, if you happen to try to scroll on the PAGE but are still in that field...it is not a type in feature. BUT...I know when I make changes to MY profile, I look them over...and I will never understand how someone does not notice it within two weeks....and again, DELETE that fvcker, and make a new one! 
THATS ^^ why it is easy to weed the liars out. LOL
Oh, SemoVictory darlin'...I am guessin' you will just have to discover my measurements all on your own accord!

Posted: 5/16/2009 10:10:11 AM | Teck59..my age range is 52 to 67...reasonable for me I think.What do you think I should consider ,my age range too be? As far me... I did not say I would not consider dating a younger man..I actually do better with younger. I do feel though,that there has too be an age limit .... I took off my filters for several days...due do hosting events, and I got guys from 38 on up....come on...I am not foolish enough too believe they want a relationship with me that could possibly lead too long term. They want the obvious...before you jump om me (no pun intended) I know theere are guys in every age bracket, that just want the sex...and the age of the woman does't matter. I would just like too have some common ground with the men I date....you know...When I am talking about my sons job/children..etc....he is not talking about changing diapers/grade school events. For the record....I know a couple (happily married 5 years) he is 16years younger....she is 68 he is 52....my best friend is 6 years older than her husband....my ex. was 4yrs. younger. ....Just hard too find the right one...and when you are a woman in my age bracket(a lot of men filter out 50 and above) it is even more difficult. I think going out and seeing someone and being attracted too them and approaching...is much easier than this online dating.....but I still will not lie about my age to get the responses..............now give mama a kiss and be nice wink

Posted: 5/16/2009 12:09:44 PM | Apology accepted..but not needed. I do realize you were paying me a compliment...and I thank you. It is just very frustating on this site, the ones you want to reply don't...and the ones who are not for you pursue. Perhaps you are right ...maybe none of us should have age filters on. Then we can just see what happens and respond too those we find attractive and have common interests. BUT somewhere...age will matter. At 60 do you want too be taking care of an 80year old woman???? Even if she cute like me................. | |

Posted: 5/16/2009 12:13:28 PM | | I filter the ages on my profile because on every single website I've been on I have women my mom's age literally hitting on me. It creeps me out. | |

Posted: 5/16/2009 12:36:39 PM | OK...you all need to realize that, turning your filters off only brings in MORE emails. It does NOT take away your delete button...it does not change your ability to say, "Thanks, but no thanks." Seriously!
Like the gorgeous AngelEyes...I have no restrictions (ok...other than drugs) because of event hosting in my area...but, when I get those emails from the ones young enough for me to have birthed, or old enough to be my father...I send a thanks, but no thanks.
Keep in mind...it's also about NETWORKING. Maybe you will end up striking up a friendship with someone who is not Mr. or Ms. Right for You, but they may have a sibling, neighbor, colleague, parent, etc...who IS.
Sheesh...I understand being here for a specific reason...to find a mate, if that's your cuppa tea. But to act as if you have too many FRIENDS already...wow. | |

Posted: 5/16/2009 12:59:17 PM | Kat is right about the thanks but no thanks..and the NETWORKING......with that being said.....any of you cute youngins out there have a a gorgeous father for me???? He should posess the 3 A's....Approachable/Available/Acceptable......if he is drop dead gorgeous and filthy rich...(not just filthy)....and adores me ...that would be just fine too................. See what happens when you get old.....you become delusional...
NOTE: God I love this site...where else can you make friends ..and have a good laugh acquire enemies....and never have too leave home | |

Posted: 5/16/2009 1:02:27 PM | Although I dislike the pic in my profile, it is the most current. My hairs a mess, and I've only lipstick on and my double chin is apparent. I've lost some weight since then, but if I do meet up someone maybe it'll be a surprize for them. I told the truth about my age, my intrests, and the type of person I'm hoping to meet.
In short, I'm doomed.

People lie about a LOT of things, not just age.
Exactly. Age, body type, height, etc. All of my photos are up to date, and I was sure to get rid of all photos from last year.
I try to update my images, as much as I can. But if people lie about one thing, they would certainly lie about something else. | |

Posted: 5/16/2009 3:28:38 PM | Hey Harleykat, Im actualy 42 and no need to lie about it. As for my grey hair lol i started to get grey hair when i were in my early 20s. Yes i do know i look older then my age . Im also sure that some women that looked at my profile would think that i did lie about the age, Didnt respond to my email. Nothing i can do about it. I guess im one of the rare people out there that dont look 10-15 years younger but older lol.

I filter the ages on my profile because on every single website I've been on I have women my mom's age literally hitting on me. It creeps me out. So on the basis of your age filters your mom must only be 2 years older than you. And it obviously doesn't work both ways as you don't exclude women young enough to be your daughter. | |

Posted: 5/17/2009 5:07:22 AM | | It is not just age. It is career, status at their career. Having real teeth. Athletic.Not wanted by the cops or the IRS. No job. Live with mama and daddy.You name it. Why the hell can't people just be honest? I do not care so much about a person's issues as much as I care about lies. Friggen idiots. lmfao And people wonder why other people are so picky. If people will lie about small shit on profiles, you know they will lie about anything else in every day life. Sad. And if you really think about it, scary. What else are they hiding from???? Thank God it is not hard to find out. :) | |

Posted: 5/21/2009 9:20:22 PM | Congratulations, you people represent what's wrong with internet dating and relationships in general. Most relationships end up failing. Why would you think not being completely yourself and faking who you are might lead to a successful relationship when even some relationships based on sincerity fail?
Don't like hearing the truth? Think I'm crazy? Fine, forgot what I said and go back to living in denial. | |

Posted: 5/22/2009 4:10:45 AM | I have encounter this several times...and i have also looked at pics whom i know they are much older then they say.If they are gettin angry or defensive it's as quick as a click to block them....one hint create a hotmail account and use it till u get to know the person, then add them to ur regular one....believe me it saves on headaches and it's free to get hotmail or gmail
good luck | |

Posted: 5/24/2009 12:53:07 PM | I could not agree more, without being you! LOL
Seriously...for me, it is not so much the "if he/she lies about this...what else will they lie about" aspect, though that does have bearing for me, too. It is the sense of ENTITLEMENT that all those who do this, seem to carry.
I have heard every excuse in the book...from not looking their age, to forcing themselves on a younger search spectrum. The latter is no different than...say...changing your location to try and get the attention of someone who lives in another state, in spite of their stating they do not do long distance. Quit forcing yourselves upon those who have preferences outside of...YOU. Sheesh.
Aside from all of that....it reeks EGO. The egos are so high that they assume their victims won't mind...cause they "are all that and a bag of chips, too?!" (Usually NOT the case!)
this is it case closed, you are who and what you are; if that isn't what certain people want or like you just have to deal w/it, not mislead them so you can get dates | |
