When the guy I saw yesterday e-mailed to tell me he was sorry he "disappointed" me, I e-mailed back and said he didn't look at all like his picture... I was kinda shocked. But I told him I had fun and that we could be friends.

He responded by telling me I was rude and uncouth, and insulted my pictures and how I looked in person...

Did I deserve that response????

I always ask my dates that too, but in a way we are putting them on the spot. Some might just be acting polite(as they should)and not say anything negative even though I say it is ok to be honest, just do it tactfully. I have always gotten a yes too, but some I can tell the real truth. I'd say most have said I look better and I believe those ones and others have said yes, pretty much. I think hmmm. haha. We never know what someone is expecting. It's ok with me as I know many guys are attracted to me and there are some that are not. As I mentioned before, no one is attractive to everyone and that is ok. I don't expect everyone to be attracted to me, no one should expect that. Of course above all else I hope to be liked for my kind heart and I seek that first and foremost in the guys I look for to date. As for body type, I described myself as average and many guys have told me I have a very nice body and am far from average but I did not find any one body type to fit me in the multiple choice. I am somewhat athletic and toned(not as much as when I was younger but still could get there again)but also curvy as in large breasted but on a smaller, medium framed body. My weight is in the upper part of the healthy range, I am not overweight but I am not real thin either. I agree that posting recent photos is important. I post new ones all the time. I am purest1purist2 on match.com.

When I ask my dates if I look like my picture, I am not looking for compliments but for accuracy. Nothing like in person meetings early on to find out whether the personal energy/personality/chemistry is right.

BTW .. GREAT smiley face! :-D LOL
