| Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all?
Posted: 2/15/2009 7:08:07 PM | Crap, I haven't read through all 90 pages but, yes, I have been "brave enough" to meet, not one, but a couple of men without pictures (or with pics of them hiding under their sunglasses) - and I will never, EVER do it again...But I've also met men WITH pics that didn't quite portray "the truth"... | |

Posted: 2/17/2009 7:26:02 AM | Got on this site soon after my wife's passing, at the urging of my stepdaughters... Believed everyone to be honest, as I am.
Without pictures, "Average" meant 100 lbs overweight - with one exception out of maybe 50 I agreed to meet.
With pictures, there were a few that were at least 20 years old (the pics - I do a lot of photography and one can tell). If THEY wanted to meet, THEY had to come close to my place... their wasted time, not mine!
Would meet ANYONE within 100mi/160 kms IF she appeared to have her head screwed on right!  | |

I know of several people that have written up profiles and they are not the people they say they are. please be careful. Most men I have talked to all they want is one thing and they will lie to get it! I was actually told the reason why some of the guys come here is find "looser women" or this is a " meat market" it is pretty sad when women have to come here and be talked about in that manner. But is is reality and a hurtful one. I would not call it brave souls...just becareful out there.

Posted: 2/19/2009 1:00:42 AM | | I think I wont bother having any public photos. I have a particular personality, and particular needs in a man, so they need to respond first and foremost to those needs. If they seem like the kinda guy who I can get along with, I have no problem sharing a picture then. Yeah...so what if a picture increases your responses by 90%. I want meaningful responses, and I'd hate to see them buried under a pile of BLAAAHHHHHH. | |

Posted: 2/23/2009 11:28:16 AM | | Her profile was terrific. Educated, employed, slender,45yr,s old and written very well. We exchanged #'s and talked a few times during the week. We decided to meet for lunch. She got there first. She turned out to be 55 , overweight and retired. What really turned me off were the white curley whiskers coming out of her chin. | |

Posted: 3/10/2009 6:15:27 AM | | I have and it was no big deal, there was no chemistry but the men were nice and gentlemen. Thing is I would have met them if they had a picture alos and there still wouldn't have been chemisty. If they wanted to lie they could and can regardless of the picture or not. So, no difference.... I am interested in the man behind the picture and what he has to say and who he is. | |

Posted: 3/11/2009 6:36:40 PM | I gave a guy the benefit of doubt. He said he was thought to be attractive, described what he looked like, but his computer kept crashing when he tried to load a picture.
I will not do it again. I know we all have different ideas on what is and is not attractive and that is perfectly ok. But even this guys mother could not have thought he was.
Be ware of only face pictures too! Average means something different to each on of us.
Happy fishing everyone! | |

Posted: 3/25/2009 5:11:50 PM | The pictures can be false representations of what their appearnace is today, the shallowness comes without pictures when in person, I mean it is all a wash.
I have a stupid headless body pic on my profile to very seriously just show what I look like (BBW or Rail Thin) and you'd be surprised how many men want to see my boobies from lookin' at that!! I am totally covered and dressed businesslike. Hey . . . atleast they are honest about their intentions :) I end up staying at home some nights that I am free becuase of that!! | |

Posted: 3/25/2009 7:50:08 PM | | IDK I'm very self conscious and have no pic on the internet.Idk vanity issues I know but that's just me....I would but only after months of getting to know one another,so if I liked her personality I'd be going for that and not the aesthetics of a first meet. | |

Posted: 3/28/2009 8:57:14 PM | I didn't add pics to my profile, but I might a little later.
For now I'm trying to see if a girl would be interested in me based on my description. Then I would send her pics and/or get on webcam if/when requested.
Agreed, for profiles without pics, there's a good chance the profile description won't match the real person. For profiles with pics - this is true too. From what I see, this is probably the biggest complaint. The point though is... you can be lied to from a pic or picless profile.
Some of my friends have experienced very attractive people from picless profiles. There are people that are very attractive but don't want the attention. Others are very attractive but shy about their looks. | |

Posted: 3/30/2009 2:35:18 PM | | I've never met anyone without a picture yet, but I would if they show me that we share interests, or is funny and I like the sense of humour.. It's a tough thing to do, but I would meet someone without a picture if they messaged me and we clicked. Odds are against me messaging someone without a picture though. | |

Posted: 3/30/2009 3:30:51 PM | I did meet one guy who didn't have a photo online. Turned out to be chubby, old looking for his age, and totally off his rocker. He hated the town he lived in and went on about it, but he said that he remained in this country (from "across the water") because a fortune teller told him he'd meet his true love here...then he started giving me "The Look" and I got nervous!
Bottom line was, he had a tremendous amount of anger towards women, suddenly thought I was his dream girl, and when I tried to let him down gently, he said I was the one with issues and that I thought I was a beauty queen or something. I politely told him that he should seek therapy, then I blocked his sorry behind.
Perhaps if I had been able to see photos of him I would have been able to use better judgment and would have just stayed home that night instead! | |
