A Thought...

Quote From: filindown

My emote is blank cause I am blank.  I have been single for 12 months officially, not divorced yet but getting there.  I am trying this online dating but not trusting the info given.  Some of the photos on the sites seem too posed and fake. I don't post my picture because I want somebody to be interested in me first.  I know people look at the pictures first to decide if they want to read on or not, even I did it, well the pictures and the ages.  The location does not bother me, but I do need to find someone who will like kids cause I have two, which brings up another issue, how do you mention you have kids without scaring them away?

If a man is frightened by children, he isn't much of a man. Do you want a man in your life, or another child? Most profiles on dating sites show if you have children, and most women over 21 or so have a few, so don't worry about it. Not posting your picture can greatly hurt your chances of meeting someone. I won't talk to women without a photo because I have to know if there will be enough physical attraction to build a loving relationship on. That is the way it normally works in the real world. The problem is a lot of people post 10 or 15 year old pictures. Honesty and integrity have disappeared from America. Many of the people out there are really flaky, so be very careful, screen thoroughly, and good luck.
