Is online dating all about looks?

In other words, is online dating just like dating in RL?

Only if there are trolls, paid shills, alter personalities, and romance scammers and green card hunters ... in RL

cswelcome Follow your instincts. And remember, if it sounds to good to be true, it probably isn't true. Good luck to you.

Yup, that's all good, but the question was about image and looks. Online the first impression is a photo. In RL it's the same, plus the body, voice, movement, behaviour. thumbs up

Would you really expect someone to fancy you online if they don't offline?

People don't change. They have the same preferences online as offline. It's just a different audience.

I understood you. I just didn't comment to it, because I disagree with you and you are (supposedly) new here.

Well again.. good luck. wave

Online fantasy BS is just that as many gutless scabs use the screen of fantasy BS who portray themselves to be anything they want to be.

The real world is where it's at.

Apart from what you say you are there's less to go on online - one reason it's good for scamming. And if a picture is worth a thousand words then it is worth a million internet words. Looks is one exaggerated by the tunnel vision take on a person you get online. The aura, the presence and behaving in the moment.. all the things lacking online make a nice photo even more important.

In the virtual world I don't really care what they look like.
I go for the written word and the personality...and the brain!

I used to communicate with someone here for a few months ...without a pic...and he rather impressed me with his words.

Then...we decided to exchange pics and even Skype. Although I wasn't attracted by his looks...I could see beyond that and it didn't really bother me.
