Posted: 8/20/2009 11:13:04 PM | It's not just you, trust me. I met one at an event who has lots of women in his pics. He says they're just "friends" but every conversation we have he talks about other women "friends"
So pics like that seem to suggest red flags. | |

Posted: 8/23/2009 3:49:47 PM | | I think it doesn't show much common sense to post pictures in sunglasses. One or two, fine... but some guys on here have all their pictures in sunglasses indoors at what appears to be their own home.. no party or strong lights going on.To be this is the epitome of "sad". | |

Posted: 8/23/2009 3:55:55 PM | | I guess I don't see how my wearing sunglasses (outside even!) means I'm hiding something. How silly of me to wear sunglasses at a barbeque on a sunny day! What was I thinking!? | |

Posted: 8/23/2009 11:55:19 PM | My glasses are tinted and turn smokey mauve even in a brightly lit room. I'm not wearing any in my profile pic because I don't want to be looking up with a "where's the camera?" look on my face.
But the next time I take some pics I'm going to post one of each. | |

We are on a dating site and none of us know what you look like. We've never met you before. So the only thing we have to go on is a photo. If you wear sunnies we can't see your eyes.
On a dating site it's more important than ever to have a clear photo of your face and eyes. In the real world it doesn't matter because you can take them off.
Hope that helps. Oh and I'm thinking it's about time I did one of those glasses shots myself...............now if I could just find my glasses.............. | |

Posted: 8/24/2009 7:04:49 AM | | Women do the same thing. I don't mind the sunglasses if the picture shows they are outside doing something and as long as there are other pictures showing their face. More irritating are the real dark underexposed or out of focus images. Why bother putting something like that on your profile? Just a waste of space. | |

Posted: 8/24/2009 7:14:44 AM | I've met guys who have worn shades in their profile pic...and they were---true to their representation---wearing shades on our date....lol
Some men are emotionally underdeveloped and ultra shy ....
Are they hiding something? Yes... but it becomes apparent during your conversation---they lack a personality.
Sometimes God doesn't evenly distribute the normal gifts equally. | |

Well then, by all means, check out their profile where you "can" see their face, eyes, and everything else. What this would apply to are the people who are wearing sunglasses in all their pics. If it's just one or two (out of like 8 or 9), then there's no harm done. Sure, your main pic is important, but your profile is just as important (if not more so). | |

Posted: 8/24/2009 8:14:39 AM | The shifty ***stards* that wear sunglasses in their profile shots are trying to hide something....
Eye am not sure what... but I bet it has something to do with something really shifty... and really unwholesome...
NEVER and I will repeat NEVER trust a shifty sunglass wearin asshat!
Trust me on this | |

Posted: 8/24/2009 9:13:52 AM | | Men put up pictures with women to show that they are fun to be around, nothing more. Any woman who has a problem with that is just showing their insecurity. We like to have a good time and we love hanging out with women, why hide who we truly are? | |

So my question is, if a guy already has lots of women who think he's "fun", that he hangs out with, why does he need to come here and look for more? If guy has a lot of beautiful women already - what does he need me for? I not insecure, just realistic. Does he need a lot of women to validate himself? In that case he is insecure.
So a guy can't have female friends? A guy with other girls in a picture does not mean he desires them as girlfriends or wants to date them. What it does convey is that the guy has social proof and has likeable qualities as a fun person.
And the women are in straight denial in this thread. Any guy who is desired and surrounded by other females makes you want him even more. Stop lying to yourself. | |

Posted: 8/24/2009 12:37:36 PM | The I don't have any other decent picture is a lame excuse.
If a person is on a dating site, where pics are the norm and pretty much
expected, then put time and effort into your profile, enlist a friend, coworker, family member to help with a recent, decent photo.
Digital cameras are ubiquitous any more, and you can take as many shots as it takes for a satisfactory result without the time
and expense it once required.
If you can't be bothered to take time to craft your profile with some reasonable care, then the logic to follow is that you would be lazy or cavalier in putting forth effort into a relationship.
What is the impression you want to make?
As far the wearing sunglasses shot...I noticed a gent who "viewed me", who may have ordinarily not been noticed. It was his sunglasses shot, but he lowered them down his nose and the angle of the shot was from slightly above. Allowed one to see his eyes and I found it to be a creative shot.
It was, simply, nicely done. | |

Posted: 8/24/2009 6:40:33 PM | Crescent I agree. However I was really referring to those people who have only ONE photo where they are wearing sunglasses. Obviously if there are other photos that's cool.

Posted: 8/24/2009 8:57:20 PM | I want to see the whites of their eyes.
I don't care if they are out with a group of peeps and there is one pic with them and other women. But just one shot. I want to see pics of them by themselves...so I can picture me next to them  | |

I'm doing all right, getting good grades
The future's so bright
I gotta wear shades, I gotta wear shades
My first photos posted were outdoors wearing sunglasses and I got a lot of criticism over them. I can't see your face, I can't see your eyes. I wasn't hiding anything so I don't think you should automatically read anything into it. I said I am outdoors all the time, I gotta wear shades! But, I took my sunglasses off, now I am squinting in my main profile shot ,and even took a separate photo of my eyes. The result: the response I got both ways (incoming messages and replys to my outgoing messages) improved considerably. Can't fight city hall or a women's prerogative. | |

Posted: 8/25/2009 9:59:58 PM | | Well in my profile i got sunglasses on but I have a pic without basically to see that i have nothing to hide. I definetely understand if a guy or girl has sunglasses that assumes something to hide. Now I dont like judging people but I believe that sunglasses makes the person look cooler lol. | |

Posted: 8/25/2009 10:36:50 PM | I think this is why a lot of us are still single... forever skeptics in our own assumptions.
Rather than asking a bunch of strangers what might or might not be the case... wouldn't it be more efficient if we question the source?
Hey you... do you always have your sunglasses on, cuz your photos sure seem to suggest it?
Hey you... why don't ya have a pic up?
Hey you... why so far... you seem to be running away from the camera?
Hey you... is that your sister sitting in your lap or are you just trying to make me jealous?
And it's not just the men...
The women for instance...
Why do many feel inclined to post swimsuit pics?
Or bathroom mirror pics?
Or cleavage shots?
Or them in a slinky****ail dress, martini in hand?
What are they hiding?
Every human being has red flags, there's not a one of us who doesn't have issues, unless we were stuck in a cave for the last 27 years... even then, that's a whole other set of issues.
In other words, nobody is perfect... if you are interested in someone and are uncertain about something they said, or posted... ASK THEM about it... otherwise. Let it go, and don't waste your energy.
I donno, this is just my philosophy. I don't try to appeal to everyone, other people don't have to see things my way. | |
