Inquiry?

disappointed of course.....

Okay, what if they are an awesome person but physical looks don't match the part... Would you still date them?

donno....it happened to me twice now.....but the first one is worse.....thats what we call cheap......but we are human....my first time on a dating site so....now i think im wiser.....

of course if they lost their teeth and extremely the opposite of the picture.....i would definately

i look like my pic....

Except i have a few more wrinkles on my brow....
I will lose all my teeth and get shiney new ones....

Does not change the fact that im still the man.....

If a woman was complete opposite of what they claim to be than that is a complete violation of trust.

its like giving someone your word....
You should never pretend to be something u are not!
<--Dance?

like when he said he has complete set of original teeth and the truth is nothing left in his mouth thats completely ridiculous....

agree with adam....

ummmmm....

"How would you react if the person you fell for online doesn't look exactly like the picture perfect person they portrayed themselves to be in reality."

Most people don't look exactly like they look in photos. Did they portray themselves differently on purpose or it just happened that way?

If that person was deliberately dishonest, that's one thing, if your all about looks, that's another!

"doesn't look exactly like the picture perfect person they portrayed..." The word 'exactly' is rather open ended as your further 'what if's' no real specifics.
Hardly anyone photographs well unless done by a professional in a studio. It is rare to actually take a 'snapshot' of someone that shows up well. Too many factors.
If there is a 'huge' age difference in appearance or 'major' differences in the actual face then something is wrong. Go with your 'gut feeling'. If the person's appearance makes you uncomfortable, be honest and at least tell them. You would be doing them a disservice in not telling them; if however you actually like the person's personality, tell them also and if you need time to really think and to decide which of the factors really appeal to you, tell him. Then tell him your decision, preferably face to face.
And always tell the truth as you see it; the operative word here is 'see', be it on the outside or the inside...

@ sol

@ ad

well said..

Seems like an odd question from someone with NO picture.

Yes, I agree with ruben.

Most people do not look EXACTLY like their pictures since their will always be a bit of a difference in person. I always tell men that I keep my photos updated that is I take new ones about ever 6 months and they are obviously not glamor shots or edited...just very basic. How much more honest can I be then that?

Sounds like a good job to me Lana.
I've met some women that looked like they
ate their former self.

@ virgo hmm I like your style,, take it or leave it

@ jim lmao!

@ lana no need for photoshop,, real is the best option

Xx

Lmao! I'm not trying to hook up... Just enjoying the blogs! Lol

How would you react if the person you fell for while you were dating didn't turn out to be the same person after you married them?

Authentic / Genuine / Honest - the only way to go - beginning to end.

As for pictures - people look different when they are in motion and in 3 dimensions ... otherwise, there shouldn't be surprises.

jim...Ive seen some that look like they just ate their husband!!!!

@adam - ugh ... a bit less than genuine and honest for her it appears

Personally I we should have paused on the honor and cherish section ... perhaps put together a focus group ... make sure that the things like respect weren't overlooked.

*Personally I think we should have...
