I get rejected after showing my photo..my heart breaks

[Roymax]

alright but you are going to be in for a rude awakening....I will post it

[Petit Papillon]

I saw lready pretty much ugly people in my life and I never said a stupid comment to them If I see Your picture, I will tell You what I think. I won't be rude but I will tell the truth,k?

How bad can it be, Roy?

[davidtorres]

Reality bites and it hurts. You cant blame the girl. THe only thing you can do is take care of yourself. Hit the gym, get an education to be successful and then spread your net in the sea. Also, you need to learn how to love the rejection.

Roy, It's like fishing. If you bait the hook and nothing bites, you change the bait or move on to other fishing spots. Just because this one fish(woman) rejected your bait is no reason to give up fishing. Looks aren't everything, I'm proof of that. I'm an Iraq war Vet, I've got more scars on me than 5 miles of bad road, plus I'm a single Dad and far from rich, yet I never lack for female companionship, Why? IDK!! But I have never stopped fishing!!

My own experience of internet dating:

When I first posted my pic I got many winks and requests. Not an enormous amount but I was pleased with myself. Then I got a few real dates and got so worried that they would think I am different from my pic (a picture or a few pictures can never replace the real thing).
Actually not. The dates were fine and the guys fancied me.

I only dated the guys who winked at me online not the other way round. I am a chicken myself and always let them pick me and then I pick them.

But one day as I was online I saw one picture that got me dreaming. T'was no close up but I liked the whole attude and the description. I winked at the guy and we got talking. At the time he could not see my pic so I re'activated it just for him the day after.
He never wrote to me again!!! he was still active on the site.
I was very upset. And started questioning myself.
A few weeks go past and one day I am surfing on the website and realise he has added a whole lot of pictures of him. Believe me or not he was not my type at all! The only picture of him I had seen so far was a misconception...I was glad he didnt like me.
All of a sudden it didn't matter so much being disregarded by someone I didnt like either!

Rejection works both ways you know, one day you don't like them and the day after they don't like you...

About being unattractive. I have got another interesting story on this as well.

I got talking to a guy who never displayed his pic. Now that was fine by me but all the time he made up excuses on not having a pic on his computer. I should have been cautious but he was lovely and had great sense of humour.

We met at a coffee place. And ok he was not attractive at all. But on top of that he had crissy shirt, greasy hair, even hair coming out of his nose yuk!!, sweaty stains on his armpits!!!
I was polite enough to have a chat with him, he had good manners and was really trying to come across well but it was a no no for me from the moment I saw him.
I had made myself so pretty that day and when he said that he would happily go out with me I could not do anything but be my French self...I told him that before dating he should put an effort in the looks department even out of consideration for his date...
Guys don't worry I was very nice about it!!!

To this day I still feel that looks are secondary to hygiene, fashion, perfume....

I would kiss someone not so good looking if he was clean and had nice perfume but could easily be repulsed by someone good looking who never brushes his teeth or never shower...


I hope I didn't come across as a shallow bitch in this post..these were just a few slices of my dating life...

[Gigabitch]

It doesn't make you a shallow bitch to be grossed out by pit stains and nose hair. Yuck!

[Petit Papillon]

Sookie are You interrested in dating my friend? He needs to break up with this bitch , I mean his gf You're from France right?

[Gigabitch]

Roymax, I just looked at your photo and there's noting wrong with your looks. You're average-to-attractive. You're not icky at all.

[QueenofCorona]

I saw your pic, I think you are an attractive guy. I thought you were going to be an ogre. Like I mentioned earlier. Get out an mingle with the ladies face to face. You're Good Enough, You're Smart Enough, and Doggone It, People Like You.

There is nothing wrong with your looks.

The only question when you meet someone is are you their type or not.

Some people have unrealistic expectations and consider their partner like a trophey. They want to be seen with a beauty even if the so-called beauty is half a wit.

On the other side can you deny that you got your world upside down when you saw how pretty whe was..hence the pain of the rejection...

Now pick up the pieces of your shattered heart and invest other pastures!!!

Also did I say: Internet dating sucks! Better stick to real life!
