"I'm wondering if many people would be happy meeting without seeing a face picture of the perosn first"
Done it once, never again. At least if you have a face pic some level of attraction can be ascertained. Life is too short for games. |

I’ve had socials without a face pic which is kind of fun, and a number of meetings where the face pic don’t truly reflect reality. At the end of the day, when all’s said and done, it’s about how much that’s important to you. I’d definitely have one, but it would very much depend on circumstances. If there was already a really strong connection then why not, and even if it was spontaneous, then it would all add to the excitement. |

Hmm think I should suggest a quick social meet with a get out clause if needs be |

"Almost always. I'm not really interested in their face Even the men I've met a few times I don't think I'd recognise if I walked past them."
I had a FB (not from fab) who had prosopagnosia. She couldn’t recognise anyone, even her family, but she had astonishing tactile memory and new exactly how to replicate anything that had really ‘worked’ in the past. |

Sure you come all the way up here we meet in a local pub and when I say "its not going to happen" after 5 mins you can travel all the way back again.

Would never ever meet without a face pic. I've messaged back and forth and felt a connection then when the face pic arrives I'm immediately turned off..sometimes feel a bit shallow but you've got to be attracted to someone! |

"I would never meet without seeing a couple of recent clear face pictures. There has to be some mutual attraction. I won't just meet anyone  "
That's what I'm thinking. Been caught out before and was extremely awkward. I tend to be attracted to a nice looking face first |

Depends...if the woman I'm talking to has a personality that I find intriguing, her looks don't really matter to me. And sometimes, a blind "date" can be fun. |

Well you get them to travel to you and if you don't like you are brutal and walk |

Once bitten........ twice shy. I just laugh at at the so called proffessional with 2 Fs people that some people call themselves. What are they going to do, wear a bag over their heads the whole meet ? |

I've had the opposite! Was expecting an ok looking man. When he turned up he was gorgeous! Pics didn't do him justice. Some folk (me included) just aren't photogenic face on. I look like a tomato who's stockpiling chins for the apocalypse if I try n take a selfie  |

And it's harder for couples as as both have to have that attraction |

I have done but not with no picture at all just not a full face picture - something to help identify whom I am looking for. It can only be a social meet and I exercise caution (not suspicion as that might be unfair.)There is always something to be enjoyed in a social meet. |

Yes, I'm always discreet with other peoples pictures but some on are so discreet it's almost impossible to chat to them let alone meet |

I would depending on what else i had seen and how attracted I was to what I have seen. A great curvy body would be enough for me to chance it. |

A profile without a face pic rarely gets my attention but if they do and there's messaging then every possibility of a social meet only. How that social meet involves is another dynamic at play.  |

Nope and If we ever find out the pictures we have dont match the people they have blown it. theres a couple in leics who sent someone elses pictures to us once yet we met them at a social and its hard to hide that. |

I never ask for a face pic and i never send one. I always have a social first to see if we like each other, then a play meet, at a club, if we do like each other.
Works very well for me |

We would never meet without a face pic what’s the point if you turn up for a meet and think Wtf. Even worse if you turn up and it turns out it’s your cousin. |

I have happily met for a social meet without picture swapping! Wouldn't meet for sex without a social first anyway and find the mind way more attractive than a face anyway so we'd have a mind connection beforehand |

I'm cursed with looking better in real life than I do in my pics (or so I'm told).
Convincing someone to take a chance based on mug shot alone never ends well... |

I think everyone looks better in real life assuming the pic wasn't doctored in the first place. It's just the nature of pictures. Phone cameras can distort you a bit too! |

Oh so that is where I have been going wrong when asked to send a face pic.
I now realise I should have sent a pic of me and not just a face pic that was of someone else!! |

What I just don't understand is why any man thinks its acceptable to not provide a face picture. And then complain they can't get meets. Personally I'd meet the elephant man if he had a big trunk but it's also about establishing trust to some extent. |

It really depends on the mood to be honest. If it's someone coming to our house or we're expecting to have a decent session with, would definitely want to see and would need some mutual attraction. On a couple of occasions Louise has just had the urge to jack someone off and we've met the closest guy available, in our car somewhere, without a clue what they looked like until we got there. |

No chance.
There's been times I've seen a face pic first, turned up and he looked years older than his pic. But least I could see it was him though. Not that makes what he did acceptable.
I'm not in blind dates. As a single woman, I take my safety seriously. Plus mutual attraction is essential. Who even has time to waste?!  |

I've had this too. They even asked me to meet them in unreasonable places. Such as a motorway service station or a park! Yeah because that's a sensible thing to ask a single woman to do! |

Brilliant description and is exactly how I look when trying to take a selfie too! |

We've had blind dates with couples before. Only socials. We like to chat a lot online first so we knew there was at least a social click.
They really weren't keen on swapping pics due to their work and that suited us. It was actually really exciting waiting to see what they looked like  |

I've had that too. His pics were ok but he was movie star hot when he turned up!  I actually do look like a tomato but he still stayed for 4 hours. |

never in a million years would i meet without a face pic and i alway try to take into account that some pics could just be a bad pic as so many turn out better in the flesh but that can also be said of those with the over the top arty farty pics that turn up and are totally not what you want .....
also i find myself having to ask the guys if they want my pic ?? most guys will meet blind and to me thats just as bad as saying they will meet and fuck anyone or anything and thats a man with no preference and thats desperarte in my book everyone should have a like or dislike rather than any wet hole will do..
and then there's the face pic where you think oh yes your nice and they turn up 20yrs older or 10 stone heavier they are the ones who really piss me off more than any other the chancers who think people are thick enought not to notice or despereate not to care ...
so yes no pic no play but also a pic dont guarantee anything either until your seen in the flesh |

If it is for a social, face pictures are not important.
For a meet, I try to share a face photo to give them a chance to run for the hills |

. No,, my philosophy is ,, if they want to meet you,,and say they are genuine, wanting to have some sexual frivolity with you,, a face picture to recognise them by is the least to be offered , unless they have something to hide!!!!

I always get one but have never given one back. I know its not fair but I am upfront about it in advance. I don't let them send it unless I am considering meeting. |

I find it amazing how many women and couples who aren't verified, photo or otherwise, ask for a face photo in your first message. You usually find it is ones that relatively new to the site. Not all of the time though. I have asked the few that do reply to get photo verified and they get very arsy with you. Fab should make it compulsory to be photo verified with in the first 24-48 hours of joining, it would make this site a whole lot better and out a lot of the idiots who spoil it. |

It's made clear on our profile,it's up to others to read and decide if they want to take things further or not.

Why would they? I don’t think you have to show your face and nobody see’s it but admin I think it just shows you are the sex you say you are, as we all know there are a lot of guys who set up female profiles. We were lucky and had veris straight away but those that don’t I’m sure it would help |

Have always said we would never meet without having swapped face photos but took a risk a few weeks ago and we very surprised. Having said that it is not something we would do regularly. |

Because they don't want their face or naked body on a site like this.
Many sites get hacked and data made public. It's not worth the risk. |

We never swap pictures, this is clearly stated on our profile for those who care to read it. Sometimes people send them unsolicited, that's their choice and it won't induce us to reciprocate. |
