A guy said to me once that i look completely diffrent in every photo, some i look pretty and other im not, some i look old and some i look young! so that has me completly baffled!
Maby someone in here can look at my pof profile and give there verdict on it when ive loaded up some new pics
(although you guys dont know what i look like in real life)
I'm happy to take a look if you like, even though I'm female. :pac:
I just made sure to put up some that are natural rather than posed, and some body shots because I don't want someone thinking I'm a skinny biatch from seeing my face, when I'm actually a 14. :pac: It never lessened the amount of mails I got, but I felt it gave a more accurate indication of what I looked like.0 -

Had he met you in real life before giving his verdict on your photos?!! Beats me how some people feel they have the right to give their (negative) opinion on looks/age/weight just going on a photo.
And they're usually not the best looking people themselves who do it :mad: Of course it's OK if they want to tell you how gorgeous you are

Nope hadn’t met him in real life, i got kinda paranoid after that so i didnt meet him.
I dont pose as such for pictures, im literally shoved into a group and snaps are taken, and i think my mood is basically written all over my face maybe, its the only thing i can think of why i look different.
Hard to get the pics right though 0 -

But hey, on the up-side, the chances are good that girls would like at least one of those 4 guys! :pac:
Ah but they might think that the good one is you on a reaaaally good day and you look like the other 3 the rest of the time! 0 -

She could be just nervous and delaying it a little. Or she could be telling the truth and nervous. Do you live far away from each other.Think I will cool the jets on POF for a while, met what seemed like a nice girl two/three weeks ago texting and that, decided to meet Tuesday but she cancelled brother came home so Friday (today) she said but again cancelled cause her granny died. She could be telling the truth, but usually when the G card is played in anyway shape or form I am out of there.
Can't get my head around why you would say you are going to come out to someone with no intention.
Phek it anyway Ted.
I just love the buzz of meeting new people myself!
I did do a bit of the delaying at the start to be honest, but because i was super nervous and super silly 0 -

I went out with a guy a few months back who had five pics up, in four of them he was smokin' and in the other he looked like he'd had a slap upside the head with the ugly stick.
So, of course he looked like the one bad one...0 -

She dose not live far plus I drive too ! She could be telling the truth, using your granny dying as an excuse is awful but so is your granny dying too.
Yeah I have done it to myself whem I was younger but I am older now 22 and shes 26 kinda silly to be honest. As I said I will take a break from this dating stuff it's pretty intense on the mind :pac:0 -

Well if you've no money to go on a date, why be on a frickin dating site.
Dating doesn't have to be expensive. There's loads of things that can be done for free or at very little cost. IIRC a girl on this thread met a guy recently in Dublin and they spent the day doing free stuff as they were both tight on cash. I don't think you should have to have a certain amount of money before you can join a dating site or go on a date. Fact is, a lot of people are unemployed and strapped for cash but still want to meet someone.
I know you're specifically referring to that guy who seemed completely unreliable and a bit odd and I would agree that he was a total time waster. I just think that in general lack of money shouldn't be something that puts people off.
Sorry to drag this back up a week later! 0 -

I only have good days!Guys keep telling me that I'm a welcome change from "all those 'live for the weekend' girls" ... how many chicks out there are 'living for the weekend'?! It seems to be a real pet hate lol
It does kind of put me off to be honest... going out is grand, but if your grand aim in life is to go out every weekend and get smashed, then it's not really what I'm after in a girlfriend / partner / etc. I'd take someone who keeps active, or has a hobby they're passionate about any day of the week.0 -

Grand Social (by the Ha'penny Bridge), Woolshed (Parnell Street, next to the cinema, as long as there's no sport game on), Messrs (if it's not too late in the evening).
Mmm not sure Lynda, think they'd be fairly busy....Messrs definitely. Woolshed maybe not comfy enough...
I have an idea of where we'll go myself, heading out early-ish so shouldn't be too busy!0 -

I've never found any of them particularly busy early-ish in the evening, but once 9 o clock hits, they all get busy. But if you have somewhere in mind, no need to worry! Have a lovely date!
