Posted: 6/28/2005 11:43:10 PM | I just can't understand how Pandy can even start to compare a human being to that of a vehicle - I'm no Einstien, but I do know that vehicles do not posses souls!! Really, what is a body without a soul - not much eh?
My, you certainly do have a literal bent..... the car thing was an analogy....nothing more. I do NOT regard people as soulless commodities. sigh.
I have not bothered to have a look at your profile, but you must be fairly young to have the veiws that you have. Once you mature a bit more, you will give your head a shake and say "What was I thinking?", or maybe you will meet your soulmate and he will not be as attractive as you like your men to be - and then you will realize what a lot of us are trying to say here. Don't get me wrong Pandy, I am not trying to dis you in any way, just stating my opinion, as you did yours.
prone to literalist interpretations AND baseless assumptions....how refreshing, LOL.
As it happens, I'm 38. And it so happens that I get more than a few emails...I can't answer them all , cant' even BEGIN to consider getting to know them all. I pick the ones to correspoind with who are the least time consuming in order to make my life a little less complicated. I simply do not have the time to get to know everyone who contacts me.
I have NEVER judged anyone wholly on looks....but I won't date someone I find physically unappealing to ME. PERIOD. IMO, anyone who says that they regularly spend time getting to know people (as romantic prospects) that they find physicallly unattractive are simply being untruthful. | |

Then fix it.
If you can't fix it
Then change tour atitude
The world is not going to change, to fit tour way of thinking.
Maybe you should consider , that you might not be thinking clearly | |

Posted: 7/1/2005 2:15:32 PM | I guess I'm a little surprised that people get upset when their e-mail is not responded to! When I receive an e-mail from someone who doesn't meet my criteria that I've posted in my profile, Sometimes I respond, sometimes I don't. For instance: I don't respond to smokers, married men, men in their 20's or 30's or men who seem not to have read my whole profile. It's a waste of time. And I mean no offense by it. I don't think anyone is trying to hurt anyone else by not responding. It's a dog eat dog world out there.  | |

I agree with you 100% and would just like to add, that if I don't respond, it has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not you have a pic. More than likely, it's because you're in a different state or live too far away!!!  | |

Posted: 7/16/2005 4:34:29 PM | | When did a pic in a profile EVER make a difference? It's them, but pic taken back in stone age, or it's a year and they put on 50 pounds, oh, and the one that 'forgot' her age.. She is actually 54 or something. You been there, right... I go for a great letter ANY TIME. But i like to know who i'm talking to, of course. But a boring msg never inpired me to look at the profile, pic or not. Why should i? | |

Posted: 7/16/2005 10:06:01 PM | No photo - it makes me wonder what one has to hide? Could it be they don't want their husbands or wives to find out? Geez, the couch would be plenty uncomfortable to sleep on. Believe me, I don't have high ratings on my profile, but I'd rather get my looks out in the open NOW, then not have a picture and a guy is disappointed. Very few men or women on this site are a "10". Only 3% of the people in this world even remotely meet Supermodel status.
Unfortunately, the world is becoming more defined by looks and money than other qualities. You may have to suck it up and post the mug shot out there if you want more responses. Remember, do you want a large quantity of responses or a few but quality responses? | |

Posted: 7/25/2005 9:30:49 AM | First off... Hi Pandy!!!.... Hi Nikkiw!!!!
To the originator of this post..... I feel your pain, but unfortunately, this is the Internet. What we lack in physical interaction, we make up for with pictures.
True.... its not fair that someone would pre-judge you because you have no pics. But guess what, they do.
True.... they may miss out on meeting the "love of their life"..... but guess what, thats a risk worth taking.
Why?????
Because lets face it.... even a large majority of the people that DO post pics of themselves..... post old pics, or "doctored" pics, or just downright fake ones.
Ladies.. C'mon...... how about the hot 27 year old bodybuilder that turned out to be a balding, middle aged married guy?
Guys..... C'mon...... how about the 5 ft4, 125lb blonde........... that turned out to be a 6 ft 4, 280lb brunette??
Truthfully, pics are just an "opener".... I always ask how recent the pics are....... I'm not afraid to ask for weight, height, etc. Hell, I even ask if they have all their teeth.
Again.... this is the Internet..... you have to ask these questions BEFORE you meet... its part of the whole process. Someone without a pic at all??? I will respond back out of courtesy, and be polite, but I'd never agree to meet anyone without a pic.
As far as INITIATING conversation..... I wouldn't do it to someone without a pic either.
Best of luck!

I know what you mean. What with the girls today. They think this site is for picking up hard-up movie stars. They need to check themself before putting up a profile...hey if you wiped your ass at any ontario McDonald's your not getting any movie stars honey!!! | |

Posted: 7/27/2005 12:53:14 AM | Thought I would throw in my $0.02, as someone who's just joined.
I do not have a picture because I have a VERY public job - the kind where, from time to time, you get people coming up to you in the 7-11 saying "are you the guy....", or your waitress or checkout clerk recognize you. Get the picture? (no pun intended)
I'm trying this site because it's something new for me, and I've tried a lot of the other ways, with some success and some failure - blah blah blah, we've all heard and/or given the same reasons. And by the way, being in a "very public" job doesn't mean I have women throwing themselves at me. If I did, I wouldn't be here, would I?
Anyway, whenever I email someone I include a picture - and if someone emails me and I am interested, I include a picture. If you are on this site to find someone to date or have a relationship, it's just plain nutty to think that looks don't or shouldn't matter. Of course they do.
As far as not replying....I have to admit, at first I was really put off - I mean, what's so f**king hard about a short note back, acknowledging my inquiry, eh? But after a bit, it just kind of rolls off my back. Also, until I read this thread, I never realized people had so much trouble with rude, abusive replies back. Wow, no wonder people don't reply !! It's too bad the need for self-protection has overshadowed common courtesy. But you gotta do what you gotta do. | |

Posted: 7/30/2005 7:42:49 PM | I talked to a "guy" with no pic he turned out to be an older Lady now
what was I gonna do with THAT ?
Another Bovine Fecal Fabrication..
Look, they want a pic.. Good or Bad..and. of course THEY will decide which is what!!! But, they are NOT shallow..cause they said SO! | |

Posted: 7/30/2005 8:26:16 PM | You may be good looking, but perhaps there is more to why you get no responses other than your pic not being up..I've seen you already have been degrading to others..fat ugly, they may only be a 4...Come on..YOU are judging yourself....
Attraction is two fold..there has to be something that pulls you to them as well personality and if you have anything in common....
Bottom line is this, YOU men rate yourself as handsome and the like and we are SUPPOSED to take YOUR word for it..YET LET a LADY NOT have a picture and say she is attractive, YOU automatically swear she's a dog because she hasn't a picture....BEAUTY IS in THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER , so what you consider ugly is beauty to someone else...Stop passing judgement on someone elses looks and YOU guys might find you get way more responses..It's done all the time on here, but to be honest, it just isn't you guys, the gals complain about mens looks too...
As long as you all focus on looks and can't get past that you will never find anyone to make you happy..I askfor a picture because I posted, but I DON"T stop talking to someone just because They don't have one...How many can say the same thing?
I have even met people who have no picture all because I got to know them...Things didn't work out for one reason or the other, but I took a chance and was not disappointed...I made a good friend in the process
Our society is one that seems to base a persons worth on his/her looks..NO??? well go back and read through the post that I've read here.... This is cool and if you are that shallow you'll get what you reap...Try a new slate..Try actually talking, getting to know someone and yea ask for a picture, but don't make a judgement call if they haven't one and if someone sends one and you aren't attracted, try being a gentleman and writing and saying I'm sorry but I'm not interested....YOu go for looks and money and possessions and you will always be complaining and nevre happy..This site is full of the most unhappy people I've ever seen..Always complaining about looks, size, sex and one thing or the other....Then you wonder why you can't find anyone...
I'm sure I'll be reamed for what I've said, but sounds more like some of you need to grow up before you try finding someone because you have no clue......YOU are missing out on some great people when you limit yourself....YOu may be passing by that one you've waited on..Think about that next time you make an assumption... | |

Your loss, wh*r*?
Obviously it's no loss at all, if the guy's gonna treat someone like that. Methinks he's gonna be a very lonely man, spending all his life looking for some brainless twit with no standards to stroke his ego for him. | |
