I am actually in better shape now than the pics I have on here, a little lighter and leaner I think women prefer that.

I have a lot less hair now. I don't get my picture taken often, so there certainly gaps.

I look exactly like my pics but have been told by the men I've met on here that I look better in real life...awesome compliment. Nothing worse than not even being able to recognize someone you're meeting.

I'm new to this site, 3 weekes to be exact..
Well, all my pictures are recently taken. But I did go on a date with this guy. Very sweet guy but didn't even look like the one in the photo. I asked and he said that picture was 5 years old. HELLOOO.. That's mis leading and not cool... and what's up with guys writing athletic in the body type section while you could easily see the beer belly overlaping the belt.. Call me vain if you want to. But honesty will take you a long way...

Peace...

I've never liked having my picture taken. So I have very few. They're usually candid, or when I'm totally laughing and goofing that I don't notice.

When I did online date, the feedback was that I looked like them, and usually that I looked younger in person.

So, I don't know what my problem is with having my picture taken...

I thought I looked like my pictures....but since the same type of man doesn't "pick me up" on here vs in person - I truly think the pictures are the death of many of us.

Well, my pictures ain't the newest, however I haven't really changed that much since last, apart from losing a bit of weight (and should lose a bit more) and not having a beard.

The one that gets me is the guys that are in their 40's or older and posting pics of their 20's. I am sorry but no matter how good you look when you are 40 you do not look 20 any more. Besides why hide it. If you really intend to meet someone they are going to see you and I think of it as being dishonest to portray yourself any anything other than who you are.

Should I ever date on here, I look forward to putting up hideous pictures from the Internet. That means I'd always look better in person, yes? (JUST kidding!)

I've been told I look better in person and they like my eyes and smile. My hair style changes the most.

I am the same way. This one here, my DL, and one other card...that's about the only pictures I have of myself in the last year. The one on my profile is about 8 or 9 months old now.

Scarily enough, apart from being a lot more tanned at the moment, and one or two more scars? I really do look like the picture.

I sure hope I LQQK like my pictures because if I don't I'm in trouble.Most of my pics were taken almost a year ago. The only thing that could change would be my hair.It might go from blonde to dark....red!!!!

Do you look like your pictures?

When you go out and meet someone.... has this come up?


interesting, ummm 1, that in asking a question like this, you don't have a picture yourself... wtf?

anyhow, yes, i look exactly like my pictures. and almost every guy i've met thru online personals has said something or the other to that effect. i think it's really important to post pictures that are current. because, otherwise? it's kind of like lying, isn't it?

one time, from another site, i met a guy who, in his photo, had a full head of thick black luscious hair. when i met him? he was completely bald, except for one charlie brown hair hanging over his forehead. it was, to put it mildly, shocking.

he was also, btw, about 11 years older than he said he was in his profile.

and, it was at about that point that i started taking online dating A LOT less seriously.

I look exactly like my picture. When you see me in person you just have to squint some, a little out of focus like your looking at one of those magic hidden pictures from years back, and if I'm standing with the sun directly behind me, and if you kind of tilt your head a bit a little to the right, yeah just like that. Then yeah looks just like me.

This is 2009. EveryOne has Access to a Webcam along with Yahoo, MSN, AOL, or SKYPE Messengers if they are participating in this Forum. No excuse for allowing ourselves to be mystery dates at this point and time in Technology/History.

When I turn on my webcam... I'm told I'm better looking than in my pictures. When I show up at the 1st date... I'm told that I am better looking in person .

^^^that is usually the case and why I tried for so long to go to events. Alas men my age and fitness range just don't attend.

I've seen several men from POF in person and I found them attractive, but when looking at their picture on POF, I would have not been attracted.

Very much so.
Having said that, a closer look might reveal some fading freckles and smiley lines.

good oneC2H5OH


As I like the pic's here and others my only rant is I wish for some of the fishy here it would be real nice to put a close up and focus of their beautiful face too.

I love vacation pic's too but if you can hold off all those of all those back round scenery pic's for a moment, as I would like too see you too!
