From all the numerous posts I've seen from POFers complaining about meeting people who had fake or old pictures up, I don't really believe it makes a lot of difference. If the person your meeting is a liar, they'd lie with their pictures just as easily as they'd lie with words.
I think the important thing is to converse more then anything fakes usually show themselves eventually.
Just remember if your invited to a dark secluded path in the woods on the first date probably not a good idea to go... | |

Posted: 9/5/2005 4:05:43 AM | Hmm thats great but like you said its for familiarity. I don't mean to be shallow but to actually like a guy, I would have to be attracted to him. C'mon girls you understand I mean you guys too. Plus I feel more comfy chatting with a guy with a picture I don't know...or maybe its just me?!?
But I'm glad everything worked out. Yay 4 you!  | |

Posted: 9/5/2005 1:09:19 PM | Yes, twice. But I won't meet anyone from online with or without a picture until after we've talked for a while and i feel like i'd be comfortable meeting them. And then it's always someplace public. I have to say I was pleasantly suprised by both of them. But for different reasons.
One was a date that started around lunch time and we ended up spending a majority of that weekend together and quite a bit of time after that. Still good friends and still hang out once in a while. He is Hot!!!!!!
The other I met for dinner after work one night. We had a very nice dinner and very good conversation. We've met for lunch again since then. We still talk on here and are still friends. He's a larger guy, but he's very attractive. He doesn't give himself enough credit.
Sometimes it's worth taking the risk, to get to know someone that doesn't have a picture posted. It gives you a chance to get to know the person for who they really are and not for what they look like. | |

Posted: 9/11/2005 10:50:49 PM | Foxfire . . . I still haven't stopped laughing . . . we must have met the same man . . . I wouldn't have been attracted if he was the last man on EARTH. And all that "personality" counts" stuff? C'Mon, people. It only counts IF we are attracted to the physical package. Saying "it's what's inside that's important," and insisting it doesn't matter what he/she looks like, is simply ridiculous.
We all have individual preferences as to what we perceive as attractive, so let's at least be honest. Some of us are more open to differences, less mainstream in our preferences, but we definately have them, none-the-less. That's what distinguishes those we are "just friends" with, from those we select as lovers.
I think there are attractive people in all height/weight/ethnicities and facial features. But, again, we all know what makes out pulse quicken, and what makes us want to run like hell. In the five or so years I've been online, I met in person, just a handful of men. But, believe me--the two or three I met without seeing photos first, CURED ME of ever trying that again. | |

Posted: 9/13/2005 4:10:04 PM | Nope never have never would,the man knew what i looked like before he msg'd me. so there for it's only fair that i should also see what he also looks like...
I also like to view a few more pic's before i meet,and if possible via web cam.And i'ts got nothing to do with being shallow,because same way they know what they like well so do i !...  | |

Posted: 9/13/2005 4:27:11 PM | | YEP all the time...After all a picture can be enhanced by anyone with some tech. knowledge...Besides to me anyway it's not how a person looks but more so what they are like inside... If you go in with to high of expectations they are rarely met. Go in instead with an open mind and a kind heart...Ususally you can ask a person questions before hand and decide then what the next step will be...always butting in Dave | |

Posted: 9/16/2005 3:55:19 PM | | i met some one that didnt send me a pic . it was my only meeting ever . she was deceptive in describing herself . she was a nice person . but if she was honest about her "girth" i would have never gone for a coffee . she also complained that 90 % of the guys commented on her tummy as the reason for not wanting to see her her again . | |

I'm afraid that "BlondeGardenGodess" is right. Physical attraction is the only thing that makes it possible for someone to want to meet. Then that person will take the time to know what's inside the other.
And even though that's always been my experience I still held onto hope that this wasn't always true. Wishful thinking I guess. And I understand. It's nobody's fault. It's human nature. | |

Posted: 9/17/2005 8:32:30 AM | | Out of every 100 or so pics I get a good one or two. It's just the way it is. I've got some really great candid photos where I was doing stupid things that make me appear like I am handicapped (not my intention when acting the way I was, just how the pic turned out), but unless someone really knows what type of goofball I am, why would I want to show the world, the worst of me? | |

Posted: 9/17/2005 2:36:18 PM | | i've met a few that didn't have pictures, most were not what I was looking for BUT even with pictures I've found that #1. The picture is usually very old or #2 not even them! This is my first week on here and I've gone out with 2 guys, neighter one looked like the pictures they have posted. Both were o.k looking but still the pictures they have posted just does not look like the real person.....~~JAN~~ | |

Posted: 9/17/2005 2:38:36 PM | | You said it... Shallow.... I don't have a pic posted for those same reasons... Too many people base too much on pics... without thinking that those pics could be glamour shots, old, or not even the person they are chatting with... What are we turning into when we have to base rather we are interested in chatting with someone by a pic alone... Not me... I have no problem meeting guys without pics and have done so... I am amazed that we can be so picky and yet still be looking for someone...online even.....???? | |

Posted: 9/18/2005 11:00:41 AM | | I've not meet anyone without a pic, the thought has always frightened me. But there is one I'd meet and I've never seen him, I just love the kind of person he is..that one I'd take the chance on I think. Simply because of who he is.. | |
