Has happend to me b4..ha ha
Well thats when you just kinda sit it out, hope you have a good friend to get you out of that sticky situation, either w/ a frantic phonecall that makes you cut the date short..or some other creative arrangement that you have made prior to the date..lol

I don't like to waste my time;)

If you have become close enough to meet it would be silly not to stay. If I allow myself to get xclose enought to actually meet that person, then there has to be some closeness...which would have nothing to do with what they looked like

As in a whole different person? I'd leave not knowing any better and think I was stood up by the person I saw in the pictures.

ok.... on my soap box!

I have said this over and over again to people... I don't care what pics you post on your profile... but if you are going to meet someone you better be sending them pics that represent what you look like now before you meet them.

I don't think anyone looks 100% like thier picture (of coarse i don't haha)...and what they write is like the ideal person they want to be so sometimes (often times) it is not what we expect when we meet after corrisponding on a computer...

I loved it when i could go out make eye contact and dance and start something the old fashioned way but just don't have time for that anymore...

I think the friend idea is best... that way no hard feelings. Just say this is not what I thought it would be like sorry... move on.

It has happenned to me b 4 (more than 0nce)and I was very dissapointed....I was amazed that some men used very old pictures of themselves and didn't think anything of it......oh well I am a very nice person so shared a drink and some conversation but let them know that the chemistry was just not there in person....

what can you do.......

this topic is so common here, I'd handle the date, so long as he was nice, polite, mature, and didnt smell bad, whats the big deal. We'd meet someplace public, nice short date, small talk, and go from there.

If it doesnt turn out to be a love connection, people learn to network and make friends.

I happen not to be photogenic, so I dont see what the big to do is about. I am not going to take constant pics, I am not going to take pics with little signs on them. People just either make up their mind that they want to meet me or not.


Tanya, I see your inner beauty... :thumbsup:
