greeting out here in forum land. i recently replied to a flirt with a lady who sounds really interesting. we've exchanged several emails already. the problem is she doesn't have a picture. i have asked her to post one, but no luck. she's the right age, retired like me, has the same interests, and lives close by. should i pass?? or should i hang in there and wait for a picture??
i really don't want to meet someone in person and be put in an awkward situation because i didn't know what she looks like. however, she sounds like a possible match to me.

Does looks in particular mean a lot to you? Or is it curiosity?

If she seem to have it all, looks will not matter anyway, she will be the prettiest around, but you should know that by now. laugh

Each of us are different. As far as me, I don't communicate with people without pictures. Initial attraction to me is from the physical looks before I move on to the most important aspects.

You have to decide this for yourself. Nothing can go wrong with a first date. Worst can happen is you have a great meal with someone you seem to like.

Hum.

Maybe she does not want to post a picture on the site and maybe she could email one to you. Or maybe she does not have a facility on the machine she is using to mail a picture over.

If you are talking of meeting, then of course what her picture looks like, will only be a guideline, pictures can be deceiving.

Whatever she looks like and whatever your expectations are, then I suggest that you ask her if she would mind that if she could mail a picture over to you.

You say that she sounds like a possible
match.Does her looks really matter?
Yet you've also said that you may be
put in an awkward position regarding her looks,
my advice would be to go with how you're feeling
and ask her again to post a pic.If she doesn't,
be patient or move on.

i hate to say this but i am worried about her looks. i'm 57 and aging nicely. i've seen lots of women younger than me that i thought we 60 or older. i hope you get my drift.

I see nothing wrong in you admitting that. I would not want to be with a person who I was not attracted to either.

So, my question is this and I support those in when they do not want to have picture here, however.

If it were me and I asked to see a picture of a man that I was looking to meet, and we were in touch via private mail, I would be baffled as to why he was reluctant to show me one, if he refused yet still wanted to meet. I could not help myself in wondering.

It is human nature to want to know what a person looks like, but all you can do is ask her. And then if you do not like what you see, you can get out of it easier if necessary.

Hey, Im 57 too. Ive seen women who are 40 and look 60, and then Ive seen some who are 65 and look 50. Like I said, and John said too, the worst that could happen is you have a nice dinner with someone who could be a friend if not a lover.cheers

I guess it comes down to her being
honest about who she is;maybe there's
something about her looks that she's
not willing to share.It could be many
reasons.Be patient,if you feel she's the
one.bouquet

I'd be saying cough up the pic.........not that looks are everything, but they do play a part, there has to be some sort of attraction.wine

How do blind people decide whether they should meet up with someone? Do they demand a £1,2000 sculpture be made and sent over first?

Her friends?But he said that he
feels that she's a match! conversing
LethalLove: Here's a thought....

this woman has similar ideologies...and you feel a level of interest in her.

So meet...have dinner, enjoy the conversation, the 'outing' with company...and make a new friend.

If she is of similar mindset to you, but you feel no physical attraction to her...guess what, you have a wonderful opportunity to make a new friend, and widen your social circle... Her friends are probably of a similar mindset to her....and by developing a friendship with this woman, without romantic agenda...

you may just find one of her friends, is a match!
