"Yes. When we’ve received face pics and they look nothing like we’d imagined. It’s a funny feeling at first! Kinda throws you a bit." It’s weird being the straight male half of a couple and trying to find single men. You see body pics and think that they might be what I think Mrs will like and then they’re the complete opposite. It’s made even harder because she doesn’t like the traditionally attractive look. Does this mean I’m weird looking? | |||

"No one ever looks how you imagine them A couple of years back I did a thread 'send me your face pics' Bizarrely, people did There are some truly good looking folk in this forum but, without exception, none of them looked how I imagined For myself, I have face pic avatars up from time to time so no surprises here" U know I have to say, I imagined you differently than your face pic that I saw not long ago ha I guess not a surprise much with me as my face is plastered all over   | |||

"I've seen face pictures that were nothing like how I pictured the person would look. But I'm terrible at guessing in real life as well. I worked with some people last year and it was months before I saw them without a face mask. There were beards and jaw lines I hadn't guessed at" I had a similar thing recently.

"I am.always surprised at how people look when I have built up a perception in my head! People probably think that about me too. " Is it to do with their name? If a guy's name was Hugo Boss would it conjour up the image of smartly dressed, well groomed guy? If it was Shug the Gaffer would you have a different image if him. Shug is a Scottish way of saying Hugh. | |||

If anything, scouse women are often quite high pitched so I'm used to being lower than others around me . Yeah it's a strange one. I've lived in many places so it's mostly fairly neutral but it entirely depends what I say and some words have a strong accent and catch people off guard . | |||

So I tend to think of it as having a transatlantic twang (there's another term but it's not the nicest! And also not accurate) and a bit of a RP edge to it. Tone wise I imagine it's a kind of melodic raspy voice but I'm well aware that might be wrong. | |||

"There’s been a few couples who for unknown reasons, had me blocked … then they saw me in socials- no direct interaction, just seeing me interact with other people, friends in common, etc) and then the day after the social I get unblocked. Interesting. It’s happened 3 or 4 times now. But it’s good to know they got a better impression and whatever misconception they had about me disappeared or became lighter…
I would have even talking to them how I am treated here I treat the same in real life
I am the same person here as I am in real life
If someone’s apinon is to block me here I block them in real life
If someone apinon is to not conversat with me here I am not interested in real life
"Well, I hadn’t done absolutely anything to them- which is why I was surprised to see I was blocked! I couldn’t care less, to be honest. I don’t care enough to block on here and there’s been no direct interaction in socials as I said- just observation on both sides, so everyone carries on their merry way… | |||

On the flip side some people have shown a side that I did like. We have to remember that we only see what someone is willing to show.

No filters, no work done, just little old me. I’m a bit nervous about it, as I’m not the most body-confident, but don’t wish to appear disingenuous. A couple of posters have already joked that I am bodiless from my boobs down!
I need to take one first
