Being unable to post a picture due to work is a crock. There are only 2 reasons that this could occur, one is witness protection...if that were the case, they definitely wouldn't be advertising themselves in any fashion as it's against WITSEC guidelines. The other reason is that they are an NSA kite or similar, doing clandestine operations, and they fall under the WITSEC premise of 'you don't exist'.. and again, they wouldn't advertise that as the fact. NSA in clandestine operations generally stick to themselves as their life depends on it. Anyone who tells you otherwise is bs'ing you.
I try to respond to all e-mails & flowers even those that don't have a pic posted.However,if they are rude or I'm simply not interested in getting to know them more I'll just simply say thanks & nothing more.I'm not sure if I'd meet someone before seeing a picture of them though.As of this day I've only given out my e-mail to one person on here.I prefer to wait awhile to do that.
if my mother were to come on this site, she couldn't post her pictures. she is a professional psychologist, and having her pictures on a dating site would be...for lack of a better word...unprofessional.
hi there i feel sometimes people don't have access to that kind of software but generally if they don't have picture yeah they are probably hiding something. but anyways i saw your picture and i think you are gorgeous and just wanted to say hi, im david and i will see you later.
On another site, I was IMed while I was in the bathroom by a random girl I had NEVER seen on anywhere before.... nothing too special... until I decided "what the hell" and clicked her profile to see who buzzed, then didnt stick around....
Her picture, I have to give her was very good... in fact it was damn hot.... but then I read...
All I can say without being rude is she talked about being lonely and has since been dubbed "Table-lady" in my mind.
Yeah, get as perverted as you can... you are probably on the right track....
As for if I replied, I did.... only to ask her if the forum was a joke.... I never got an answer.... looking back, Im kinda glad.
Noticing alot of new people joining the site....and of course with the new European connection...that much more...but hey guys....STILL NO PICS...what gives????
I might have an informal chat with someone who doesn't have a pic, but would never consider meeting them and certainly I wouldn't/couldn't develop any feelings for them without both talking to them AND seeing what they look like. And it's not just because I have a "he's got to be gorgeous" type of criteria; it's because it's puts a face to the messages...the only people who truly don't "care" as much about what a person looks like would perhaps be a blind person, but even then I think they do care how they appear to other people. Again, though, it's not about looks, it's about ATTRACTION. And you can't be attracted to a blank gray square that says "No Photo."
I am feeling terrible over all the emails i am not replying to...but i just want to say again...I do not respond to profiles in which i cannot see a "real" pic...
I would not walk up to a stranger on the street and start telling them all my personal business...and i'm not about to do that on a dating site...
