ENJOY ENJOY ENJOY
Never the less...You never REALLY know for sure till you meet...so pic or no pic....I rest my case. I will still contact a guy who has a nice profile and NO pic and take it from there....I did not post in my profile that I would NOT email someone if they did not have a pic posted....I have however spoken with someone from the site...who said no pic no email..HE did email me back and even asked my opinion on some things...He seems like a really nice guy...and that is the sole reason I showed interest to his profile in the first place. NOT his picture.Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... Thanks for your thoughts on this one...but guess we sort of got off your original topic a little.
Gentlepaws....yes cyber dating to me is backwards to some degree....but hey....how do you know that the pic that one puts on is really that person you are talking with? It has happened lots of times...How do you think kids get abducted over the intenet? We are supposed to be honest here...I can post a picture of myself...its not one taken recently..and I don't think it looks like I do now...so that in itself is a form of deceipt. I am assuming most of us are honest in our profiles....and if I say I am attractive ....its true...as one is here looking to MEET someone and have a first date....so you won't gain anything by lying.I don't want to waste anyones time. This cyber dating is a chance you take anyways....so pic or no pic on a mans profile does not matter to me...I get much more out of getting to know that person from their emails and even phone calls than I do based on his picture.I personally think its blind dating anyways....You never really know what you are going to find at the other end UNTIL you meet that person. Just sharing my thoughts....
Slider....Its interesting that your last two lines here relate so much to a relationship I was in a while back....You can be with someone....have problems....and there is still something about that person you like....so you get back together...BUT...it still does not work for one reason or another...likely same reason it did not work the first time...It does not mean that they are not a nice person...it means that they are just not right for you. Been there done that..Glad to read your post on someone with the same feelings.
Hi, just read the recent post in response to "gentlepaws" posting...I agree that both men and women want certain things and are also going to post what they are not looking for. If we did not know what we are looking for ....what on earth are we doing here. We could just date anyone and it would be okay!! I do not think so! Men are just as guilty of posting what they want in a relationship as well as us ladies. The main thing here is to just keep looking until you find a profile that has something about that person which causes a "spark". You want to know a little more...then email .... I purposely do not put up my picture...as I want to meet someone who likes to talk to me for who I am and not for what I look like... If there is some spark in the emails then I believe there will be spark when you finally do send them a pic or meet in person. Beauty is after all in the eye of the beholder..Perhaps thats a good reason for everyone to be honest in their profiles.
