| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 12:38:04 PM | So I'm getting to know someone and oh yeah, I think he is very attractive by his pics and what a cute personality but interesting enough, I run into him later on on my own IM and he changes his pic to someone else. hmmmmm....interesting..........questioned and the man I like is asleep this is his room mate..huh, ok, so I'll believe that for a moment but then the man that is his room mate pops up on another IM at a dating site and low and behold when I start questioning him....the IM closes and so the story go's on and on with the man that I thought was a hunk being kind of missing most of the time. What belief does that leave me with except..hmmmm maybe part of this guy that I liked is not exactly on the up and up? hmmmm......curious isn't it and it seems as though I've bumped into that a few times now. My question to the "costume wearer" would be...why? What can you possibly gain from this? You can not meet someone if you are putting up a phony picture, I think they might see the difference...giggle..so what is the thrill? To see if someone that you think is attractive might fall for you if you looked different? That is so sad to me. Many people, including myself could fall for people that others might not see as attractive. It's more the heart than the face. Has anyone else had this kind of experience and how do you feel when someone fakes you out with their picture? It's happened to me quite often and I am growing weary of it. | |

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 12:44:35 PM | | I like the ones who post a "recent" photo from about 20 years ago. Seems kinda pointless. | |

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 12:47:41 PM | | I think those ppl aren't here to really find anyone in person they are just here to collect fans..not sure what the fun is having a fan if you aren't even using a pic of yourself..but whatever floats your boat..or perhaps they are here doing some kind of lil survey..bad pic verses good pics..*shruggs* who knows..takes all kinds. | |

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 12:48:39 PM | He probably dosn't know the biologicle differences between men and women. Cause if he did he would understand that it dosen't matter what he looks like. It's his personality. It's how much masculine energy he exudes. Because the femanin is drawn to the masculiine.
When you're ready for a strong man like me hit me up. | |

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 12:50:49 PM | It's happened to me too. I met a lady online that posted a picture of her sister in her profile. Her sister was in good shape but she was 5' - 3" and 250 lbs ! Needless to say when I went to meet her at a park I did know it was her until she said something and then I said to myself "oh no, she is'nt that huge woman sittin' on that bench". I was decent to her for a few minutes then left and she never heard from me again.
Why do some people do that ? | |

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 12:51:20 PM | Hi beautifulowomen4u,
Don't let it get you down, it happens on both sides, but I think the site is still a great place to meet people and chat with others from all over the world.

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 12:54:48 PM | | Lone, I think they sometimes get it in their heads that they can change your mind if only they get the chance to meet you and show you what kind of person they are. It's sad really that ppl think that poorly of themselves to use another picture..I feel sorry for them actually how lonely and sad they must be.. | |

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 1:08:59 PM | | HI! Oh, I forgot to mention- my photo is taken 20 years from now and I'm a millionaire! | |

|
| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 2:21:37 PM | If a guy wants to meet you in a dark bar, late at night..... and you walk in and he's sitting down, with a big coat on and a hat..... chances are...... he is shorter than he says and a few other things.
That happned to me once. I pretended I was there to meet my girlfriend... and I was sorry but he had me mixed up with someone else. freak....... | |

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 2:35:01 PM | | I just don't understand why someone would have someone elses pic on their profile. To me it means that this person is starting off on a lie. And for those whose pics are of themselves but from eons ago....what's the point? You would only find yourself with a lot of explaining to do which is not a good way to start off. It is after all an act of deception. | |

| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 2:41:20 PM | | We should have everyone take their pics with a copy of that day's newpaper, sort of like a hostage picture. That'll clear some of it up. Of course, they may take a picture of the supermodel who's their roommate with that day's paper, but what are the odds? | |
|
| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 2:41:38 PM | Wait a second, now, I thought we weren't supposed to be so shallow.  | |
|
| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 2:45:22 PM | | Your 51 and you like someone with a roomate? I thought you were in collage are something from reading, until I looked at your picture. Well I would just say if the person can keep putting up new pictures at a drop of a hat, then they are who they say they are. If you know they have a camera. have them write something you tell them on a peice of paper, and have them hold it next to their face, and take a picture of it, and send it right then, give them 10 mins to do this. It don't take long to send one as long as the site isn't having proublems. If they can't send it, no biggy, but after the next time they change their picture, say it again, and if they find a reason that they can't then, I would say you had been had. People that like you wont mind proving its them. | |

|
| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 4:58:39 PM | | Easy solution here.. start dating the fugly guys! At least we dorky ugly guys are honest! | |
|
| Fake Pictures Posted: 10/29/2005 4:58:55 PM | | ok i guess i ahve 2 points one she asked why would he do this and what would he gain. well knowing how shallow most women are no matter how much they deny it. dont get me wrong looks always matter to everyone, physical attraction is a must. im just tired of women claiming they dont. anyway he prolly thinks the only relationship he can have is one over the internet where he can never be truly seen. and since noone will respond to non picture profiles, hmm more proof taht looks dont matter huh, he puts up a random one of a better looking guy. sometimes just having great conversation with someone is enough to keep ppl going. and thus my other point is if you noone picked up on it. personality is important but stop lying to yourself, everyones may have different standards but everyone has standards. so pls stop claiming looks dont matter. you wont convince me until you show up dating someone like sloth from the goonies. then ill believe your the one person in the world that looks truly dont matter. | |
