I think you're being a little harsh.
I disagree. How many people do you know that can accurately judge a person from a photo? And, as we've already heard countless times, people with pictures posted to their profile can lie and misrepresent themselves as easily as those without. I stand by my statement: having a photo is not indicative of character.
Who are you to assasinate his character because he has a differing POV.
Perhaps you should re-read my post. I don't have a problem with his character because he has a different point of view; I have a huge problem with his calling a very large group of total strangers "buffoons", simply because he disagreed with their point of view. | |

-- it is not fair for them to see me and me not see them -- if they end up being a creepy stalker I want to know what they look like -- when we meet people in real life, we see what they look like -- I am here to find people I am attracted to... if I do not know what they look like then I do not know if I am attracted to them -- worst case scenario: they do not have pic cause they are married/have gf and they do not want their significant other to see them using dating services
I agree with Spiderwoman 100% on this one. To me putting up a picture is a courtesy to the people who may or may not get in touch with you. I don't even look at profiles without pictures. Maybe the woman is morbidly obese, and if that's the case, I wouldn't go out with her anyways. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/24/2006 3:29:42 AM | met another gentleman last wk without a pic. absolutely the cutest thing i've ever seen. for the time that we spent together that evening, it was magical. but i have come to the conclusion that he was a figment of my imagination..... i don't know if i will do it anymore. it's just gotten too nerve wracking. i don't want to be the kind of person that judges someone by their looks, but when you meet someone and find that they could'nt bother to be honest, or what about they DO have a pic, but oops, forgot that it's over 1 yr old, or it's so far away that you can't make them out..... has happened time after time, so maybe i need to rethink my game plan..... very disheartening  | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/24/2006 3:44:23 AM | Well I met a lady who didnt have a pic posted on her profile & all i knew was that she was tall, thin & blonde hair (half the population of southern california) so we chatted on IM for a couple of days & then we agreed to meet for coffee, she was a knock out...& now she's my friend! end of story. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/24/2006 1:15:54 PM | | I did, when i first joined. What a nightmare. He was nothing as he described and i walked away. Only to find out later that he was deleted off here for having a false profile. I guess someone else found out the same thing and complained. I learned my lesson. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/24/2006 3:10:50 PM | | I have been chatting with a couple of guys on POF without seeing their pics and they haven't seen mine.I have described myself and they have also.I know that to me looks are not important.I want to chat and make friends and if at some point we decide to meet, great.And if he is not as attractive as I imagined or vice versa,then I hope we can still remain friends.Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and everyone has a different opinion of what attractive means to them.Remember that everyone needs a friend no matter what their size is or what they look like. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/24/2006 9:58:45 PM | I think a picture helps you decide if you have at least a physical attraction as well as a mental one by talking back and forth either on here, email or phone calls etc. Sometimes people live long distances apart and I think its only fair that if you provide a picture that they do the same. I'm a little suspicious when people don't. In this day and age with digital cameras its a very quick thing to be able to do hey? Even if I wasn't attracted physically to someone, if we had been gettting along well on emails etc. I would want to meet them, so what is the fear factor about then? | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/24/2006 10:12:17 PM | | Yes, I have met a couple people who have not had photos on line and they have all turned out to be great individuals with a unique personalities. Though it may have not been relationship material most have remained computer friends. You give a person more of a chance if you don't see a picture at times I think. You learn about them. If they are going to lie it could be in other ways, other than a pic. And one of the people that I have met is the most handsome, kind and straight forward type of person that I would love to build a relationship with, the only problem would be the distance. To this point he has not lied to me that I know of and is a great guy with the curlest brown hair I have ever seen. Had he have posted a picture it probably would have been with his hat on and then I would never have seen those gorgeous curls to begin with. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/25/2006 7:38:27 AM | I think it's only fair that if you Don't have a pic viewable to other users, that you send a pic with a message if you're interested. If you don't have any pictures at all then really, the majority of us will tell you (or not) "You're S.O.L.!"
Now if someone messages me that doesn't have apic posted, I ask them to either send one in PoF or to e-mail me one and if they won't well... you're looking at me now so send me a pic or too bad so sad.
cheers | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/25/2006 8:00:03 AM | | Yeah people without pictures can complain all they want, but their odds are just lower. Most people have pics and like to see them. You don't have to post one, but if you don't you'll be doing a lot of the shopping. If you can't at least e-mail one with your initial e-mail, then you're gonna have a rough time of it. But it's your choice, of course. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/30/2006 5:14:29 PM | Hi everyone!! No, I would never date anyone online withought a pic that is pure crazyness!! What do they have to hide? If they didn't have a picture to offer at first then I would ask them to share one with me when they were ready to. I wouldn't do it just in case the person ended up being a total phsyco path or they were just ugly. I'm more than just looks but call me shallow or whatever the heck you want to I must be attracted to the person I'm dating. Good luck to everyone on this site!!!!! Happy Halloween!!! | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/30/2006 6:04:53 PM | Its ironic you would ask this question, because my first internet date had a pic online and I forwarded one of myself....however when we met she was the same person, but the pic online was an earlier version...yes she looked different...
A pic or no pic doesn't guarantee you anything..
To answer your question...I haven't met anyone without a pic, but I would.....even though there is no connection, you may have a good friend... | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 10/31/2006 12:14:06 PM | I did, and he turned out to be quite cute. He was as much fun in person, as he was on Yahoo. I don't think i'd like to make a habbit of it...but it turned out okay this time. Who knows right? I mean, some folks post pics of themselves 3 or more years old..and they have "changed" since that shot was taken.
Meh...take a chance, may turn out to be good...or if not, you at least have the "OMG this guy/girl didn't have a pic....." story :D | |
