Wedding Band in Picture?

I winked at a guy on Match the other day. He winked back. I asked him to send a picture. He just sent one - said it was taken last year. Not a bad looking guy but he's wearing a wedding ring! I know last year is a year ago but, still, it does give me pause. How do I know he's not married? If he was married enough to wear a ring last year then how ready is he for a relationship this year? Isn't it kind of dumb to send someone on Match a picture of yourself wearing a wedding ring?

Yeah that would be sending off alarm bells.

He technically could be divorced and maybe that was the best picture he had of himself, but if the picture was missing from the profile it could be an indication he's still married. Tread carefully. I'd full out ask him about the ring.

You could take a pass or you could ask him about it.

Yes, kinda dumb. It's kind of like the profile pictures of the guy all dressed up standing next to an attractive, dressed up woman. I've seen so many of these. Do these guys want to show off that they attract beautiful women? I never bother with those profiles, it's just too weird a message that they seem to be sending.

Also, to be frank, it makes me question their character, or at least their judgement!

Agreed. Also I think it's a violation of privacy. Posting your own picture is one thing, but posting one with your ex in it, without his/her consent, seems inappropriate to me.
