but what is personality without attraction? I dunno, maybe im just shallow, but if you post a picture looking all slim and turn up looking like a whale, says something about your mental stability and honesty.
You can't be more shallow than me :p
I'll have to settle for a frog if I still don't find someone I like by the time I'm aged 30 or something. The older I get, the less picky I can be :o

wtf :confused: surely you could have the pick of anyone you wanted. you have no need to worry about that.

I thought I was getting less fussy with age, but then there are just some levels I wont go to, and fat is one of them.
 
Shallow or not it's completely true. Someone can have the greatest personality in the world but if they aren't attractive they will just be a nice person.

Not sure I agree with that; if you know someone for a decent amount of time, looks can become less important. It's just not going to happen on first sight.

I don't mind a few extra pounds, but I don't think I could date anyone who was obese. Have a bit of respect for yourself and make an effort IMO.

Why could she have the pick of anyone she wanted? Not sure of the logic behind that. :confused:

Looks are crucial... if you don't find someone sexy and want to have sex with them on a regular basis, then unless you both have an incredibly low sex drive to the point where it doesn't matter then the relationship is doomed to fail imo.
 
Just registered on POF and another specific to the country i'm in. I went for a profile that doesn't try to be too wity or clever, but that has a bit of personality still, so it should appeal to a broader audience than in the past when i've tried to be too clever or too individual. I'll update you as I get any news or info. :D

:confused::confused: i know one i girl and i get on with her so well i would even say we would be perfect together.. but she just does NOTHING for me on the looks department, and i could never be with a girl that i am not physically attracted too :o

Less important perhaps, but it's still a huge factor. Someone who isn't physically attractive is not going to be more than date material. Certainly wouldn't work long term.

Have to say I agree with you here. When I met my current Mrs I didn't actually fancy her to begin with, oddly enough for me that came later, it was her personality that attracted me first.

Ah, I'm trying that technique with a girl at work. :o Snare them with the personality :D
 
Guys!! Seriously the key to the getting messages malerky is 40% pictures, 10% profile, and 50% when you log in.
Because I work from home I was messing about all day and would get a fair amount of messages. For the only reason I can imagine is that I was appearing first in the list and in the little pictures too.
Since I've given up and not bothered as I'm seeing someone I've received maybe 1 message in two weeks.

Keep logging in....
 
Well, just got my first bite, 25 year old girl local to me, brunette, seems pretty cute too. Half English so language or humour isnt a problem (I live abroad), and she also Scuba Dives which is pretty awesome as i've just started getting into that. Not bad for a first message, think i'll arrange a simple for a drink date in a bar... then if she turns out weird I can make a sharp exit after an hour or so.

This is true, but i'd give even more % to photos. The main has to be the (or close to) absolute best you can manage to look or you won't get many views, end of.
 
How did I miss this little Gem. :D
She's erm... Well. Not fit but has great personality.

Subtitle translation in effect... She's very large. :p


Anyways I've had 6 Doris Want to meet me off Badoo in the last week :eek: That is a 300% rise on my average, I've changed nowt, I've chatted to the 2 fittest ones so far & will get around to the other 4 in time. I think maybe the last bank holiday of the year & Xmas being on it's way is what's caused the increase as previously things get much more active in the months up to Xmas, Started a bit early this year by the looks of it. :cool:
Bring forth that Pasty & I shall Smasheth. :p
 
I read it as the exact sort of thing that 15-year olds like to say, and considering there are a fair few women that read this thread it's not very cool.

And I read that as a poor attempt to get on side with the few Doris that are on here. :p
