Well I haven't had to worry about meeting someone who doesn't look like his photo yet.....can't think why that would be But I know that I really hate being viewed by really really old guys who don't have a picture up....there is a really obvious reason behind that one. Eeewwwwwwww.
I know I miss having the little ones around too. My youngest turned eight this year. My eldest is a boy and is 13yrs. I've told him I'm not ready to be a grandmother just yet though You can imagine his response
Was also interested how people came by their usernames so thought I would rehash this one...
Aberfoyle is the name of the property I have...It's been that way for over 100 years so I figured "why change it"
Usually though I use the nickname of "nellie" It's my sentimental one...my grandmother died when my 'father' was only a couple of months old, so use it often...kind of a rememberance thing.
I don't think an older photo is such a problem if that person hasn't changed a great deal during that time...but when old photos are used to deliberately mislead potential daters then it is pretty sad.
On the profiles that use the sketches...I guess some people have legitimate reasons for not showing what they look like, but if they were to contact someone it would be nice to think that they would offer a picture of themselves with the email...a good faith kind of thing.
Then there are ones who simply hide behind costumes...these people probably have as much to hide as the ones using the sketches.
My own pic is current. I took it with the computer camera the day I joined CS so is just over 3 weeks now. The camera isn't great and doesn't do colour very well, so converted it to black & white....besides the b & w hides the grey hair, wrinkles & frown lines better
It's a dating site Butterlfy you're allowed to have 'crushes'. Can understand the not wanting to get hurt again....but give it time....you never know what might happen
I sent an email to the mods after my earlier post here....but go ahead and contact them too. The more people that complain, the more genuine they see we are....and the more sus this he/she is.
Phae made a good point Martia. By posting in the forums regularly, you get to know who is on the other end of the profile, a whole lot better than receiving a one-off email.
I've been on here 3 weeks now and can honestly say, there are people on this site that I would be happy to count as friends....and they have all come via the forums.
Martia........just went back and checked my email too. Yep has changed. When it cam in yesterday was a photo of a guy......now is a blank sketch of a woman, with female id's..
RE: why do men think that if they go out with you on the first date they can sleep with you as well
Now he finally sees reason !
