Posted: 10/29/2005 9:46:25 PM | I also want to add that some of the people who don't have pictures, really do; but they don't want to post them because they are not the most attractive people and are a little insecure! The ones that do that, should'nt, because they are setting themselves up, as well as the person they're meeting, for an akward and hurtful position. Just post your picture, if you have one, and lower your standards a bit. (I'm trying!! Dam it!!  ) Also, some people don't want to post there picture because they don't want people they know to recognize them, but they can still send you there photo in a private email. I ask that now too!!  | |

Posted: 10/30/2005 2:22:05 AM | Often times a picture is not enough... I met a girl who sent me a face-shot, and wow are those misleading. She easily outweighed me by at least 100 pounds, and I never would've known it based on the picture. And it's not like it was an out of date picture, or a picture of someone else - it was her.
I don't mind dating overweight girls, I have had great experiences with girls that weigh 10, 20, 30 pounds more than I do, but yikes, she could have crushed me! I have to draw the line somewhere. I only weigh 155 pounds for christ's sake. And at 6'0 tall, I am a rail.
From now on I ask for more than just a face shot if I am even the least bit worried. | |

How do you know that just because someone doesn't have a pic on their profile doesn't have one at all? Just because a person may not be the best looking doesn't mean they don't have a personality or sense of humor. | |

Posted: 10/31/2005 2:36:42 PM | | I am actually meeting with someone today whom I've never seen a photo of. But she sounds really fun, and I'm not necissarily on here to get laid; I'm sure we will have a great time whether we are attracted to each other or not. Sometimes it's good to go on instinct. Like i said, even if there are no sparks, you might meet a really cool person. Or a stalking serial killing freak...lol. I'll let you know what happens... | |

Posted: 10/31/2005 3:56:22 PM | Hi Bosslady,
Its funny you should have brought that up i have met a woman from here it was a very interesting date. i actually went to Wallaceburg to meet her she lived in London and was taking care of her dads apt. It was quite the meeting Its normally a 2 hr drive from windsor but It took me 5-6 hrs to get there and she was very nice about the whole thing actually had planned a picnic had bought Swiss Chalet..but since i showed up late she gave it away.
We met and she was like she discribed herself but she also did not to send me a pic.and i agreed to meet her .We are still friends but the distance is a bit of a problem so we write each other once in a while and I know if we lived closer we would have become more than good friends..but who knows if its menat to be it will...!! | |

Posted: 11/1/2005 12:30:18 AM | | Ok, so if anyone cares I met with this girl who i never saw a pic of tonight and it turned out pretty good. There was no real romantic chemistry, like my instinct had told me, but we had great converstion for several hours. And I'm sure we will hang out again. Will something more happen...? I don't really care, because i have a cool new friend :) But if anyone is curious, we did talk on the phone before we met, and that was a good idea. If you are worried about a stranger having your phone number, there are ways around that. She gave me a number to call that wasn't hers, and I called her from a pay phone lol. | |

Posted: 11/2/2005 7:14:51 PM | looks does not make a person treat someone right or wrong.. It is what inside a person that does that.. The gentleness of a person is not based on looks. Personality cannot be judged by a pic.. malibu what happened you might have happened if you would have had a pic of him.. It goes back to how someone treats you... | |

Posted: 11/4/2005 9:59:45 PM | I started chatting with someone on here that had a picture of Bea Arthur as their profile pic. She seemed nice enough but boy could she talk dirty. It was HOT! I figured she used that PIC so it would make people get to know the real her. I liked how she wrote and we agreed to meet for coffee.
Turns out it really was Bea Arthur. | |

Posted: 11/6/2005 9:22:35 PM | | I have went on several "blind dates" from this site and it was not a bad experience. I have to agree with some of the other post on here if you will listen to your gut and talk on the phone with the person you are going to meet. You will be fine just remember to listen to your self. | |

Posted: 11/7/2005 12:31:26 AM | Hey
I don't have a pic up and lots of guys have met me (in person). It's not that I don't want to have one up--it's just that my profession is pretty high up there and I don't want any incidents.
The guy I want to be with, won't care if there is a pic up or not. For those who choose to pass me by (which, of course, is totally up to them)--well, I say...it's their loss...'cuz there isn't anyone out there like me ;)
Cheers

Posted: 11/7/2005 6:51:17 AM | I like to go out on blind dates. Those to me are the best because they are blind and don't know what I look like and simply judge me by my voice alone. These dates usually go well, until they insist on feeling my face like a Lionel Richie video. I'm not into that. I usually end up leaving in a huff... usually before the waiter brings the check.
(singing) Hello! Is it me your looking for? | |

Posted: 11/7/2005 11:44:45 PM | | Ive had bad enough luck meeting a couple of the guys here who did have pics. The pictures were really old, not of them, or computer enhanced. I really dont want to know what someone who wont post a pic looks like or more realistically what hes hiding about himself | |

Posted: 11/9/2005 5:08:24 AM |    I've done that insanity. Take a friend and your cell phone and meet them in a public place. He may look cute. So was Ted Bundy. He may look like Richard Ramirez, the serial killer. Girls and women, lets be careful out there. Don't walk into a blind alley date, speaking in a medaphore. Don't sell yourself short. Just so you don't have a date for the weekend. What will your family, mother and friend and coworkers think that you cant get a date. Let them laugh. So what. better to Be alone then going out with a total nut case. Why do we have to define ourselves with the need of another person of the oppesite sex. Let's learn to love ourselves. Explore healthy positive avenues. Read inspirational books. You are what you hang around with. Try a church that is well balanced. If you see negative signs, run, don't walk. People will try to control you just for the sake of controling you for your money or what they can get from you or your connections. Been there done that. Read the newspaper once a week to expand your muscle, your mind. Educate yourself. This really helps all those around you too. Peace and love. Dahlia.    | |

Posted: 11/9/2005 5:30:35 AM | I have mixed feelings on it. I think my intentions are to give the person an honest shot no matter what they look like but I do know what I am NOT attracted to physically so I also want to see their picture first so we don't both waste our time. But that sounds so shallow so I don't know. I would probably meet someone without seeing their pic but I don't know how optomistic I would be about it.
Alot of people don't know what they look like...lol...or so it seems. You can have one man telling you that he's ok or an average joe...and he's totally gorgeous. And another that thinks he's the next best thing to ice cream and well...he's not even close to ice cream. And we all know that pictures don't always tell the truth. I haven't met anyone that doesn't look like their pics...but I've read about plenty of people that have. So I guess it's all a matter of preference. I prefer to meet someone that has a pic. | |

Posted: 11/9/2005 7:09:04 AM | ^^^^ That's not shallow at all...that's how our parent's met, through the eyes first! Are they shallow?
Why is everyone so hung up on being called "shallow" for wanting to know what a future romatic interest looks like? It's natural, it's the way it's always been, it's no different now.
Alot of people don't know what they look like...lol...or so it seems.
SO true!
And I have never been dissapointed by meeting someone who had a picture either, they were all true to who they showed to be. Knock on wood.
If it ain't broke why fix it? | |
