| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 11/18/2007 3:10:47 PM | I would think most people have a PC with pictures loaded in them, that's the biggest reason I bought one- figured it would be better my chances to get to meet the ladies. Much to my astonishing dissappointment it isn't working out as well as I thought it would because I've discovered nothing but people who really dont give a crap. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 11/18/2007 3:11:26 PM | | Last night I met a guy for a coffee at Tim Hortons. He did have a pic posted, however he looked nothing like it. Heis profile said he was 49, but he looked more like 65. When I got out of my car he got out of his. Right in the middle of the parking lot he roughly grabbed me by both sides of my open ski jacket, and wouldn't let go. A couple sitting in the window were watching the whole thing, so I didn't freak out, as I knew by the look on their faces, that I had help if needed. As I didn't want my new jacket ripped, I asked him to go inside and had a coffee with me. He was nothing but a dirty old man. It was the most awful experience I have ever had. After awhile, I managed to politely get away. So, even if the person does have a pic, you don't always know who you are meeting. Be careful ladies -- I'm still shaking. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 11/20/2007 7:59:56 PM | | I met someone awhile back without seeing a picture. We went completely blind. It was well worth the effort to meet without a picture. He was devlish charming, goodlooking. We spent a couple of weeks getting to know each other after the first encounter (no sexual activity) but it frizzled out. All ends well. Needless to say he was well worth the effort to meet in person with out seeing a picture. He stole my attention with his quick wittiness and soulful persoanlity. I don't post a picture either and trust me Im beautiful. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 11/27/2007 7:26:00 PM | Yes, three times. The first time, the man said he knew me from high school. I thought, hmm, ok, I'll look him up in the classbook. Well, that was 30 yrs ago and it was in a box somewhere. The second time he called, I asked him point blank, what do you look like...he said average. Well, he was well above average. Maybe an 8.9. We had some nice dates discussing the good ole days but he didn't want long term so arrivederci! (Awwww. ) The second man said average and he was a 5.0. The third man said average and he was below...a 3.0. But all men were gentlemen! And laughs with all three. The coffee cup isn't what we should be looking at, but the coffee inside! | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 11/27/2007 7:41:36 PM | | While I wouldn't deem it brave, I most certainly have, & would never have a problem doing so. I guess it depends on how important the physical is to you. For me, well, nearly everyone has SOMETHING about them that is attractive. Big nose, maybe but perhaps beautiful eyes; you get my drift. In any case, for me, by the time I feel comfortable meeting someone in person I already know that what is inside attracts me. The worst that could happen is that there is no physical chemistry/attraction at all, and then I have met a friend. Could be worse, don'tcha think? | |

The pictures I value the most are those taken with a point and shoot or self taken. The professional pictures with editing and even air brushing are hardly indicative of a human being who would be on here.
Even some of the most beautiful model beauties, look better in make up and professional lighting, ad nauseum. If someone dresses themselves up and has a special hairdo and special make up, well that's just not the normal person who is seen daily.
I'm a wash n wear person, no make up (well ok mascarra), brush my hair with my fingers and either dress neat & tidy but still casual or if I doing something dirty then I don't wear good clothes. But you see I am what I am and I am what you see.
So realize that most or at least a lot of people aren't normally what they appear in a professional picture. I look the same morning noon and night. Well okay I have a confession to make. I frequently wake up with bed head and I don't drink coffee! | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 12/1/2007 8:12:56 AM | | Yes, I have! As I say in my Profile, I'm not all about how hot a women looks. Sure, their has to be some physical attraction. But what's really important is weather or not they are a beautiful person on the inside. I have been out with several attractive women who didn't initially post a picture or even send one with their response. There can be many reasons why a person might choose not to post a picture other than being shy or insecure about their looks, I think a lot of people, both men and women are missing out on some really great catches because they are too shallow or insecure to get to know anyone without a picture. Perhaps really hot looking people not posting a picture are trying to weed out shallow people! Who wants to be liked for just their looks? Not me. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 12/1/2007 8:59:45 AM | | I have, & will continue to do so - because it's not about looks....it's about what's on the inside. I didn't meet her actually, because SHE chickened out! If they have a picture...good; If they don't have a picture...fine. I don't care. I think these people who insist on pictures MAY place way too much emphasis on looks. Also, there are people who don't have pictures on here because they know they're good-lookig & they don't want people contacting them BECAUSE of their looks - they know that a lot of people judge based on looks - sad fact of life. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 12/16/2007 11:21:28 AM | | I agree....I believe that every one I meet that isn't for me is one closer to the one that is. I have a very good intuition and rely on that to decide whether to meet or not regardless of a picture. I have never met a person who wasn't what they appeared online (knock on wood). I banter first about stuff....unrelated to dating and interests, that tells me more than what they write. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 12/25/2007 5:50:12 PM | I was without a pic for a long time. There was this lady who was replying to all my e-mails and seemed to be very nice. Others did the same too.....
As soon as I put a pic, she disappeared faster than a speeding bullet, and so did the others. Oh well, some of them were young and even though one of them sounded very smart she just did not like me....Haven't heard from her for about a year and I never wrote back anyway.
Having a pic does not improve your chances, it may actually reduce them. That is why I prefer to stick to the forums. At least you can speak your mind in here and not be rejected. | |

| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 12/25/2007 6:44:37 PM | | It would nice to have a general idea of what a person looks like before meeting up, but having a pic doesn't mean the quality of dates will be better. Some people can use old, fake, or deceptive pics. Regardless of if a person has a pic or not, you can't tell how attractive they are until you actually meet them in person. | |
