| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all?
Posted: 2/3/2008 5:16:52 PM | | On another dating site I met a guy without a pic on his profile and it turned out to be a totally disaster. When we spoke on the phone he was a total gentleman then when we met in person he turned into a real jerk. He wasn't cute and I was in no way attracted to him. will not make that mistake again. | |

Unfortunately, she wouldn't talk during the date and decided to break off our second date to go see "An old guy friend" who she sounded like she had feelings for. I wish she could have at least let me have that second date. She was so hot that I wasn't even concerned with sex too much, I was just happy to be in the presence of such a beautiful piece of living female art. | |

Then later I have seen a pic. Let me tell u this guy is hot. Hope to meet this guy real soon, it seems hopeful. It was the words from this very nice man, that made me very interested in him.

Posted: 2/4/2008 10:40:49 PM | k, kinda off subject but here goes anyways, i personally think not having a photo on a site is fine....it weeds out the 'good' from the 'bad' (at least for me it does) who write you. ones that actually msg you are intriged by your username and/or something that you said in your profile....so the liklihood that you two will get along is a high possibility. after chit chatting a few times i'm not oppose to sending my photo...it's just the right thing to do since i know what they look like (yes, ones that msg me usually have photos...go figure...hahah).
now to answer the question (finally), i have met someone without a photo before and turns out he was a hottie with a great personality! but that was a long time ago. as far as today goes, i would have to ask for a photo so i know who to look for when we meet.  | |

Posted: 2/6/2008 9:47:51 AM | | why? I dont understand the big deal... honestly, I mean who really looks like their picturs. Most girls around her post like 5-6 close up shots of their faces. I like online dating, but because of my profession as a sales rep, feel uncomfortable with posting my picture. One time, I had a customer's employee recognize me from a picture dating site and it caused an awkward situation. | |

Posted: 2/10/2008 6:22:11 PM | | I've met many friends online without seeing their picture first, a lot of them back before having a pic online was a common thing, but still. I actually went out recently with a girl who at the time didn't have a pic online. It wasn't anything serious, just went out for a couple drinks and some pool. It's not going anywhere really, but I don't regret it. I will reply to all emails I get, pic or no pic, unless it's from someone I already know and have been trying very politely to avoid. never hurts to make a new friend, whether it goes anywhere or not. | |

Posted: 2/15/2008 6:51:02 AM | | If you aren't attracted to them why waste your time meeting them? Guys want to see what I look like and I really want to know what they look like before I spend time going out with them. Dating is stressful enough, I don't want to worry about what they look like too. Call me shallow if you wish, it is just how I feel. | |

Posted: 2/15/2008 1:27:53 PM | | Like 5 years ago I used to chat online with some random guy from a chatroom. He was super funny and I always looked forward to talking to him online, so we decided to hang out one day and he ended up being totally cute and way funnier in person. We stayed friends until he married some hooker who wouldn't let him be friends with me. I know, sad. But the moral of the story is, I probably would have liked him no matter what, because he had a rad personality. | |

Posted: 2/15/2008 3:01:18 PM | I could not agree with you more. The hell with that bull about reading one's soul and saying you know what to expect by talking with someone, either on line or on the phone. Sure the longer you meet this way you should be ab;e to get an idea of what they may be like, their personality, likes and dislikes, what they say they are expecting from you and vice versa. However the reality is I would not have gotten into any relationship unless I had been attracted to her looks first. Why waste your time thinking you can figure them out . Physical attraction is what it is all about. Why should I meet a lady who is a blimp or a scarecrow when that is not my desire. Even if a person is not your ideal mate you may at least meet and find out they are after all. This would never happen without a picture first.  on that whole idea. | |

Posted: 2/15/2008 8:00:37 PM | Call me a wuss but I would find it unsettling to meet someone without a picture. It si so easyt o put a picture ona profile. Evne if ythey dont; owna digital camera they can get a disposable camera go toa pharmacy and pay$3 to get in ona CD and pop it int he drive. Drag and drop and upload. People often lie online as they do in the real world. How do I know I am nto meeting another dude posing as a woman? I need a few things to meet someone and its not shallowness its safety and comfort levels.
1. At least 2 pictures. Preferable a face shot and one that shows some of your bod. And smile!
2. the need to feel both physically attracted to you as well as mentally atracted. So I must enjoy chatting with you we send a few messages and schedule a place to meet that has other people in. Such as a Mall, coffee shop, pizza place, or a bar that is not so crowded as if you cannot find eachother.
3. You must be well groomed and have good hygiene. Bathe and brush!
These should be the basic requiements for meeting someone. | |

Posted: 2/15/2008 8:10:04 PM | I know what you mean Karate dude I have far too often met someone who did nto look liek their pictues. They take what I cam the Blythe-space angles where Teh look great but when you meet them in person they are hiding a bulging belly or have thinning hair. Or Gross hairy arms and I am talking abotu women.  Its really amazing how these women can hide their appearance and make it look like they weigh 30-50lbs less. I think a picture is important still becuase it is at least half-honest. and we are visual creatures. And you can't smell pheromones over the internet. I am not shallow I just don't want to meet someone who is not who is really a man in dsiguise  or man-bear-pig. In addition if I am not physically attracted to someone its not going to work. And if you go to meet someone without a picture you are goign to ask random people are you this person and they will think you are weird being ona blind date. and I am tired of being in awkward situations or dating the types of women that Deuce bigelow dates. Like Penis nose and the tall chick (FREAK!) god i loved thsoe movies. | |

Posted: 2/16/2008 6:38:51 PM | yes! not once but twice. well the first one was ok. there just wasnt a spark between us we had been talking on the phone for about a month. anyway he turned out to be just a friend.
the second one, he described himself to me on the phone and i thought yea right whatever! when he picked me up at a friends house, he got off the car i was shocked. he was really hot! damn nice body, good teeth, good complexion, tall and well dressed and a good job. well anyway we went out to dinner and went back to his place and i had been feeling a little sick and he kept telling me on the phone he would take care of me. he did, make me fell comfortable had bought me some medicine and we just relaxed and watched a movie he had rented. nice! too bad at that time i wasnt ready for a boyfriend which is what he wanted and still to this day emails me from time to time. | |
