Today's musical
recommendation - "Feel it in my bones" by Tegan & Sara
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Like many users of this site I'm sometimes drawn to a profile
based on the primary picture posted and yester I had this happen and than was
in for a surprise when I looked a little closer.
What was the surprise? Well the picture was from 2004!!
Now this got me to looking at the other pictures posted on
this particular profile and I discovered that not one picture was under 4 years
old......so my question is what does this person think will be the reaction
when they arrange to meet someone and don't look like the pictures they've
posted.....
I know that my appearance hasn't drastically changed over the
past say ten years but there are subtle changes and I would never post an old
picture.....there is something to be said for truth in advertising lol
So last night as I was looking at profiles as part of my
research for this posting, that is my story and I'm sticking with it ok, I
noticed quite a few things that made me ask "what the
heck?"..........
One profile had some restrictions....no smoking or drinking.....yet
every picture showed the woman with a drink or cigarette and all were dated
within the last 2 months
One profile had a comment about guys posting pictures of
themselves topless, which I agree isn't cool, and yet showed one of herself
lounging around the beach in multiple bikini shots.
Not really trying to rant here but more get the point across
that when you show up for that all important first meet-n-greet don't you want
the other person focusing on your words and actions and not sitting there thinking
to themselves how you don't look anything like your profile pictures and
feeling kind of deceived?
Ask yourself how you'd feel if that happened to you
Now before I get any harsh responses about this posting and
the lack of pictures on my profile I will say that when I have had pictures on
my profile and should I ever decide to add some to this profile I can 100%
guarantee that they will be current.
