‘I can’t share face pics because of my incredibly important job.’ Does ANYONE meet people who won’t share face pics? I appreciate some of us have a greater need for privacy, sometimes for job related reasons, although there are many others, but to expect people, especially single females, to rock up to a meet, social or otherwise, without seeing a clear face pic first is idiocy and shows ABSOLUTELY no respect for my preferences and safety.
I was offered a verbal description. 
Would anyone here meet without a clear face pic? And why? |

Yes I've done so in the past. Both ways. For a social after chatting and getting a general feel for the person.
They've generally worked out as well, if not better than some where I've seen/sent face pix.
Wouldn't do a horizontal but would consider a social again without face pix definitely.
But each to their own. |

"I wouldn’t even chat to someone without a face pic (the exception being formites but even then I’ll eventually ask) "
Same
I like to know who I'm talking to.
Talking to body parts is weird |

Don't see why you wouldnt show any potential meet a clear face pic. After all they will see you in person when you meet. Unless they intend to show up wearing a paper bag or ask you to look in a different direction so as to not see their face  |

Highly unlikely I would meet someone without one my first though is whats the real reason they are hiding them. No if a man expects to meet me then he is expecting me to trust him and if he is being evasive in any way then its a no. |

Maybe they think I’ll say to myself, ‘Oh bugger it, I don’t need to talk to these ten people who seem straightforward, imaginative and sexy, I’m intrigued by the mystery of the faceless couple..’
Ummmm, no! |

Most women won't meet without them.
Most guys will meet without them.
Most gay or bi guy will meet without them.
Personally I will meet without pics if someone gives a decent description.
What gets me is when guys expect you to meet and they have no pics, also won't give a description or tell you anything but still wonder why you won't meet up. |

I’m too careful, but he put his hands up to ward me off whilst saying ‘No, no’ like I was swooping down to bite his neck.. |

Well explain how some of these people ‘meet lots’ I guess. Transparency is key for me. |

"i will be replacing all my pics soon with the ones ive just had done.

You don't have to do that just have one in private to send if you really expect someone to take a real interest in you. |

Im appalling at recognising people from pictures. I stand there looking hopeless and hope they recognise me. |

I think the simple fact is they don't "meet lots" they say they do in an attempt to lure you in, they think if you believe other women are meeting them, you must be missing something.
Bottom line is, generally speaking guys will need to send women face pics if they want to meet up. |

Personally no problem sending one myself. But only if someone enages in conversation. Not sending one on the first message of contact. This site is riddled with fakes. |

I think that is totally understandable, as is not keeping one on the site and sending via another app or direct from phone. |

I might be one of the strange guys on here .. if we've not exchanged pictures it's very unlikely we'll be meeting, if it's a message aboat an organised social I'm attending more saying I'll hopefully see or find you there that's different.
if the job is so important then they can't really meet anyone.. everyone has camera phones these days .. crazy excuse |

Why not call so you don't approach the wrong person.
I have met couple and ladies in the past without face pic due to speaking on the phone.
You could arrange video cam to verify. |

I’d spoken to the right guy for ages on the phone. I’m not sure how that helps with my rubbish facial recognition? |

To answer the question.
Seeing someone in person doesn't give them an easily manipulative digital image of yourself.
Simply saying no to some people on here can generate a nasty response who knows what someone could do if you said no following a social and they had a picture of you.

So do you not send face pics before a social? |

Fair enough if their face pics are private cause mines are as well But don't expect me to come meet you if you can't send me one in private, like I haven't seen you at all! and it's happened to me more than once. I instantly block and delete now |

Have only ever had two meets ( 2 couples) without seeing face pics prior to the meet. Fortunately worked out well for all concerned and met them both again numerous times.
Both meets were on the basis that if neither party liked what they saw then the meet wouldn't go ahead. |

But all my social mets are on that basis anyway. I commit to nothing more than coffee and a chat at a social. I reckon 60% go further. |

I'm cautious with face pics but don't expect them either. Have met people purely on a 'considered attractive' and while it's not foolproof I enjoy the added frisson when it lands nicely. |

I have. I respect their wishes if they declare early on their not comfortable sending a face pic and I'm fully aware why people have concerns.
They turned out to be lovely. It's not about being too important...there are some unscrupulous sorts out there who love causing trouble! |

I would share a face pic if I knew I was definately get a fuck. If I trust someone enough to send them a face pic, I trust them enough to put my penis in them without their husband jumping out of the wardrobe and beating the crap out of me.
Just for chat purposes when play was never an option? no mug shots required. |

I actually think it's different for women...far more men willing to mislead or do whatever it takes to get a meet."

I agree, but I do understand some people's concerns about sharing them.
But conversely they must accept a lit of people won't entertain them! |

Mine are friends only. Reason being this life is separate for me and dont want to leave myself open publicly. I dont want recognising, again, i did have a face pic up but on a very important conference with potential new clients i was recognised by a PA of another bidder for the contract. It didnt look professional at all.

We have in the past and still do meet without face pics. Guess it's safer for us as a couple than being single woman.
We found that often even when the face pics are recent people don't quite look like their pics. So we're not fussed about seeing face pics in advance as wouldn't meet for anything without social first. |

Yes after chatting to someone for a couple of months we both my blind and were FWB for 9 months and are still F.
A picture doesn’t equal safety, should always meet in safe environment with or without a picture. |

No after one or two messages I expect a face pic and don't meet unless I have spoken to them on the phone too.
I am single and if they want to meet me they have to be prepared to meet in public for a social - if they are too scared of being discovered then they can go and find a married woman. It's about respect. |

I totally hear what you're saying. I was on here many moons ago. Face pic and everything. But it turned around and bit me on my Arse a few time. Once being spotted at work and even having my pic & profile tweeted to my company. And the second time at a PTA meeting amongst my child's school governess . Now I've learnt my lesson so know its after a bit of chatting off site ill share my pic in hope of not being linked to my profile. As for meeting without even seeing a clear pic I wouldn't bother. Too many CatFishers about to be doing a total blind date. |
