Why are there so many users on here who refuse to put on a pic on their profile, and then expect people to reply to their messages? It's really annoying! What's the point on being on this site?

I even stated on my profile that I wouldn't reply to non-pic profiles, and tried to say nicely that I don't like older (over age 30) men, but still they keep messaging me...am I being too picky?

I'm almost 25. I know I'm not that young, but still I feel that I'd get on better with someone more my own age bracket. For the same reason, I probably wouldn't date a 21 year old or younger...I just wouldn't feel comfortable with it!

lol i am the oppersit. im 24 but i prefer older men say 28-38 personally it is because i find that men of that age group are more at my level. i went out with a guy the same age once and i just felt like an old woman lol.

I guess every woman has their own preference. your best bet is not to reply.

I'd rather have a message from a genuine person with no pic on their profile, than someone that just puts a pornographic pic of some random person on their profile instead.

I don't discriminate against people without pics - but obviously it helps to know who you're talking to.

But what if it's not them in the pic?

Also, how do their looks define if you're going to get on with them? Very Happy

i agree with ya there,
i dont have a pic on my profile, and prefer not to to be honest...i find that if i get chatting to someone i can always send one via msn or switch on my webcam to prove i aint a 30stone trucker called bob lol. They are genuine reasons people dont have thier pics up for all to see sometimes, and u can usually tell within minutes of chatting to someone if they are a waste of time or not.

Whats wrong with men in there 30S? We're not that old you no Tanyah!! and all you younger ladies will be there one day you no.



Cellardwellar, I think you miss my point a little. What I am saying is that I have stated certain preferences on my profile, and people who message me and ignore this info are wasting mine and their own time.

I ain't saying I'm anything special, but I do have preferences, everyone is entitled to have preferences. Some prefer blondes, some prefer brunettes. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it, and we really can't help what floats our boats. Personally I don't think I am being picky by choosing to date someone more my own age. It doesn't mean I'm shallow.

Yes I will be an old woman one day...and THEN I'll be chasing all the old men!

I used to have my pic in my profile but people at work found it and that was a LONG week of having the juice extracted, I work in a big company and there are a LOT of notice boards :p

Now I just add a note that pics are available on request (not that I ever get any replies since I don't have a pic..vicious circle? Wink)

Fair play to those who refrain from uploading a pic. However, you can guarantee that those who do will increase their messages by 90%. No question. No?

hmmmm thats very judgmental of us younger ladies. im 24 and every boyfriend i have ever had bar 1 has been in their 30's i have never had any complaints.

And age has nothing to do with sexual experience, but it has everything to do with confidence and adventure.

Tanyah!! I don,t think you are being picky or swallow and yes you are entitled to your preferences, But some one in there 30s is not (OLD) has you put it.........60 is OLD.

Anyway i,m in my 30s and look like i,m still in my 20s so there. LOL!!

'Old' as I put it? Selective reading (or imaginary reading) on your part. I didn't say 30 is old. I said it's OLDER. Read my second post. 30 is several years older than 24. Fact.

For example... At 24, I feel I would be too old for an 18 year old lad. Doesn't mean I actually AM old though.

Can you see how 'too old' and 'older' aren't necessarily synonyms for 'old'?

I won't date anyone over 30, under 21, or a drug user. And if I can't have my own way then I'll stay single.

I can't be bothered to explain myself anymore. Cellardweller I hope you haven't been offended by anything I've said and I hope you find someone you like on Flirtbox or elsewhere.

Peace.

too true, I guess I should bite the bullet and just think "sod it"

tbh, it wasn't so much any stigma about my being on the site as the lies and crap that were told about me (photoshop is a cruel tool) by some really nasty people (since dismissed for gross misconduct anyway, so why should I still be bothered?)
