in response to my questions ....



that is just my new one, my old one was longer with more different pics and I tested that one for a year, and as I have found out you can put a million things about yourself but in the end you still ask the same questions when you talk in person so its not mystery, but I have found some woman do like mystery ... but the whole point is just like you said MOST people get turned down because of their photos....but then cry they are single and like I stated it is good to have standards but reality will keep most single.

Huh?

Edit: Oh, so this is Rant No. 2 about people not giving you a chance b/c of your pics?

Online profiles don't benefit everyone. If you come across better in person, then that is where you should try to meet people.
Try speed dating.

Well, then, change your photos and quit ranting.

Next time, before you whine and cry about not getting a date, log off so that we don't have to hear about it.

When moderators delete your thread it SHOULD be a strong clue to you. You dont restart a deleted thread or you risk losing the ability to continue making any more new threads. Just saying.....

I've never been good looking, I was cute for a short time but most of my adult life I've been fat & homely at best. I've dated a lot, been married twice and had my share of romances. So it must not be about my looks LOL If you sell yourself as not good looking and not much of a prize and people believe you, then you have limited yourself. Just be you, look like you, and accept that not all women will want you (you could be drop dead handsome and not all women would want you), and keep looking. Most people are average looking at best, most people don't have high end incomes, etc., most people are just living their life and not comparing themselves to movie stars or rich playboys. Go sit in the mall and watch people, you will see all kinds of mixed up looking couples and all kinds of looking people who have wedding rings on, etc., we are just people and beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder.

Your first post was incoherent. There was no question. It reads like a rant that at least 20 guys a day make in AAG. Seems like you are the one that doesn't "know whats going on". Punctuation could do you a world of good.

I will go with the title of the thread since that actually does have a question mark. Yes, looks matter. Remove your pics or contact only those with no pics if you don't want to be judged physically.

CawkBlawker it was not a rant and thats your opinion, like I said people who live on these forums think they know it all.....maybe if you get off the forums and get out of everyone else's lives you may be able to fix your own.....good luck ....I am done with this thread you guys crack me up....

Wow! Looks like I missed the fun... oh well...

OP- don't whine, you're an adult and whining is unatractive.

So are your pics, by the way. Get a pic where your face is visible, maybe without the glasses...
I like glasses, but you can't see your face clearly in either pic. And perhaps looks aren't the most important thing, but with online dating, your profile pic makes your first impression. If you're a nerd- look like it; if you're a goof ball- look like it; if you spend a lot of time at the beach-look like it... get the idea?

TheLongSpring is not perfect, but he tries to give good advice. AND he is not breaking forums rules.

OP, I know you don't like hearing it, but you need better pictures. The main is not flattering and makes you look heavier than "Average". Have friends take pictures of you having fun and smiling. Use the clearest smiling picture as your main picture. The others of you having fun will help show you are someone a person would like to do things with - just don't use a bunch of pictures with booze.

Edit: nhra1966 is quite good looking, but has a bad attitude. We have repeatedly told him that he is attractive, but the separated thing hurts his chances. Instead of listening he chooses to complain. Do you want to be like him or TheLongSpring - who is not as cute in my opinion, but has a better attitude that gets him dates?

Looks matter for everyone people...lets just be honest. It is what it is....and personality IN PERSON is where it happens. On line in the beginning is ONLY about photos and hoping to God profile content is real...because half the time people do NOT match photos, are NOT who they said they were...and most of the time...there is nothing there even if both people match photos...

It is a CHEMISTRY...in person deal only !!!!!!!!!!! And yep...being separated, newly divorced, newly single, and tons of kids...does lower ANYONE's chances....it is what it is. Off line & on line.
