online dating

I was being nice. Take it easy.

What little gang are you referring to? I'm certainly not in one. There's nothing wrong with meetup. I wasn't fobbing you off. That was a genuine recommendation and I was offering constructive input.

If everyone you know has confidence issues then you might want to get to know more people. Not everyone does. And many people who do have dealt with it to a level that someone asking them for a photo on an online dating site wouldn't set them off.

Seems like you're just in the mood to kick off on someone/complain this evening. I must say, you sound like a catch.

Feck no!

I'm on my own.

Nothing wrong with going for a different (personality) approach in OD but as others have stated its a grim road. I don't think anyone here has ventured down it. Do you get many likes without pics?

I disagree. Maybe it’s an age thing? I’m not sure what age you are heather. But plenty of us who have sailed well past 30 are confident people. In fact, when it comes to dating it’s kind of an essential for me that somebody is confident in themselves. I may not think every bit of me is perfect, because that would be arrogant (and unrealistic) but very much like myself. I don’t expect all others to like me but that’s the beauty of life experience - knowing that doesn’t matter a jot.

Ah you've lost me. 😅

This is literally what you said:

‘Couple of weeks ago ..I said to myself...I need to try a redhead...so I initiated the conversation with something about his profile...and then he responds all high and mighty like 'i don't talk to women who have no profile pic' so I was like 'oh right grand...I don't share my pic until I have a good rapport with someone ' ...damn he could have worked on that tension...now not to sound big headed but id say I'm a 7 and he's a 5’

None of us can relate to this because we have pictures on our profiles. I’m sorry but that’s just how it is. We don’t think it’s pushy for somebody to want to see what you look like before going on a date. If you don’t like that opinion that’s grand!

And you are not single?

Projecting much? ;) What you have described is not how I interact. I have told you how I interact, which is how I have responded to you here. Are you seriously going to argue with me about my own actual offline behaviour, which you know nothing of, just to keep complaining?

Ara now.

Rant away. There's some good heads on this thread who are supportive.

Sometimes we get frustrated and want to vent. No better place than here and doesn't necessarily have to be about OD. I'm not on those sites myself, but sometimes these threads are just silly and fun.

Love hearing success stories and about loopers.

You're out of control today!😅

I'd try it.

What is in the water today?

Crisp sangich is great. But I'm particular. Brennan's white bread, real butter and king cheese and onion. The crisps can't be from a multi pack as they lower flavour density.

Chocolate is not my thing though. Nutella crisp sangich?
