Dating website...
Jump to: Newest in thread
A friend of a friend is on a dating website. She's gotten a message from some lad and now he's asked if she's got a full length pic (not naked lol) as she only has a face one on there.
Shes got the right hump about it saying he's shallow etc. Everyone is agreeing with her.
Apart from me...
I must be shallow too. |

"How is that shallow? "
I don't know? I daren't ask shes gone off on a right one!
I'm not looking for Mr perfect but there's some things I wouldn't find attractive so to save wasting anyone's time a full length photo would just make sense to me. |

"Don't see the problem myself, I would send a full length one if asked. If she's not happy about it she should just give the fella a miss XXX"
Why do that when you can screen shot a 4 page WhatsApp convo and post it on instagram so everyone you know can give the guy a bashing... |

"Is this friend a larger lady?
She's about a size 18.
"
A lot of these close up face shots can be a little misleading, I think he's in order to ask for a full body picture, and I dont understand why she's so upset about it.
At the end of the day it would stop embarrassment for both parties surely? |

"Maybe just maybe 18 would be too big for him? If so then no pint in getting the hump about it Not everyone likes larger ladies "
She's said it's shallow to want to meet someone based on what body type they have and told him he has issues
(seems a bit the other way to me but hey ho)
He wasn't rude about it either just said he has a 'type' |

I'm fat - there's no two ways about it . But I can take a face pic from the right angle and you'd have no way of knowing . So when I was on a dating site I made sure there was a full length pic as I'd be mortified if someone turned up on a date and was expecting something different . I think it's completely fair for someone to want to see someone 'in full'

Yeah but since I uploaded it a couple of years ago I've put on a bit of weight. In process of losing it again lol. So haven't got it on my pics at the moment |

Have to admit I've not got a full length pic on my dating website page but then to be fair, my face seems to be working as filter, so no need to throw a full length pic into the mix! |

Seems fair to me, assuming he wasn't a dick about it when asking. If you saw someone out in public you'd make a judgement on whether you found them attractive partly on their body wouldn't you? |

"Is she new to the online thing?
Seems like a big over reaction"
No. She's been at it for ages. Meets some bloke. Gets all serious in about ten minutes. Then bins him over something he does that annoys her. Says all men are wankers and she's happy single anyway.
Give it a fortnight and she starts again. |

"Tell her to send a full length pic. If he's not happy, his loss!! "
I don't understand how it's his loss. I would never have dated a woman back in the day just on the back of a passport photo
Frankly I think it shows her insecurity more than his shallowness |

Why is it automatically his loss?
She sounds like a nutcase as it goes, I think he has actually escaped a nightmare"
based on what you've read here?
really hoping you're not a copper!

It sounds to me like she's insecure with her body. Maybe she's had a lot of rejection because of her size on dating sites (I've experienced this a lot) so thinks this is just going to happen again so could be her defence mechanism.
I do agree with u tho that there is nothing wrong with asking for a full pic. I too like to see a pic of the guy because I like to see what his clothes are like |

"Surely if she's going to meet him he's going to see her anyway
How can wanting a full body pic be shallow?
Pictures are really misleading!"
Just saves a lot of time, if you don't like what you see in the picture. |

Depends on the dialogue I think; as to if I'd be offended. If he's initiated the message to her, chatted her up and said she was gorgeous, etc... then dropped it in after, asking could he have a full length pic, I think I'd be slightly confused by him, as in one breath he's saying he fancies her, and in another he's saying he might not.
You need to put a full length pic up on dating sites always, or write your dress/trouser size, or both. Otherwise you're going to waste yours and the other parties time so many times. |

Exactly- however she might think her personality will shine through if they meet and it won't matter |

I cant imagine speaking to someone for a long time and then getting to the point where you exchange body pictures and getting a "No thanks"
God , I'd die! same with face pictures too, although I totally understand why people hide them here, but thats the sole reason i have my body and face on display here, would break me if they said no after asking and seeing one.

I think so, I'm not skinny by any stretch of the imagination and when I have been online dating including a full length pic means they know what to expect |

Sometimes it takes every ounce of will power and self belief to put yourself out there and look for a partner "who will surely love you for who you are" (your friends have assured you you're a catch!)
So perhaps, when the one thing that has been holding you back and making you doubt your worthiness gets questioned, you get a knee jerk reaction. You get rattled, and confidence plummets, brains says "I knew it! Only thin girls find love".
Not saying that has ever gone through my mind..
However, shaming him online, well that just makes her a douche.

I must be shallow too then that id like to see what someone looks like before i arrange to meet them??
The people who have a problem with these requests are usually people who arnt happy with their body for what ever reason?
So they all jump on board and call it a shallow request??
Shallow that you want to see what someone looks like ??
Bullshit |
