Is it me!

Is it me or would other fabbers expect to see a pic of the people you are arranging to meet before you actually meet up? Got very short shrift when I asked for a pic before setting off on an hours journey. Needless to say after I asked again I was then ignored. Surely it's common sense and also an element of safety as well for the ladies.

If they refuse to send a picture and you require one then they're not for you.

Some do meet without sharing pictures. It works for some and not others so do what feels right for you.

Yes I'd want pics. There's no way I'd agree to a meet without seeing what the person looked like first.

We would never consider meeting someone who wouldnt show us a face pic,would they wear a bag over their head when you met?.

you would think its common sense, after all its not blind date is it...

I mean that's taking NSA to the extreme..

but you are assuming that they would be there to meet you at the other end, which is not always the case..

I think you saved yourself a trip on the road to nowhere

Its usually a good indicator that your going to travel for an hour for nothing.

I'd avoid anyone who didn't want to show themselves after showing interest...just odd really.

So you were on the point of setting off before you asked for a picture?

Bluntly....to have got that far sounds odd to me

Sometimes I fancy a blind social. Sometimes I think that would be s crazy thing to do.

But if it's not for you op, don't go if they don't show pics. Its your prerogative.

No I was not at the point of setting off and wouldn't until I had seen at least face pics

In the cold light of day... how likely do you think it would be to meet a hot chick wanting sex at 4am with no pic after an hour's drive?

Or an address that turns out to be a layby with a hairy trucker called Dave?

We don't send face pics,never have,never will and we do ok,but then we do make it clear on our profile we don't send.

It's then up to others if they wish to take things further or not.

If someone didn't want to send a face picture, I'd be wondering what they're hiding. However, for some, it's how they roll so you just have to respect it and decide to meet them or not.

I wouldn't meet without seeing their face. Even just a quick hi on Skype would be ok if they didn't want to swap pics.

By the time you are planning a definite 1:1 meet face pics need to have been swapped.

If it was a more informal , 'might bump into you in the club' when you are going anyway, then maybe not.

We wouldn't even hold a conversation without knowing what the person looked like.

Obviously no sense of humour eh....also it is obvious no one on here would have even considered your question at 4 am to go and expect a fuck.... you must have been very tired or something.

You'll get plenty of those, just remember the posters that do it, there's a pattern!!

But yes, to save a wasted journey, you're right in asking for a picture. We ask for a photo and mobile to speak, if they don't, we kick them into touch.

If you won't meet without a face pic then don't change your rules.

Not just you, and you have every right to know what they look like before hand. Why travel an hour's journey when you don't even know if you're attracted to them? I'd stay in bed

Would you meet someone without seeing a face pic of them?

OP anyone would be unhinged in the first place to go for a meet without even seeing the person so no you're perfectly right to expect to see.

Who would do a blind date.? Real lol at anyone who would in 2017

couple, us we him her.

We only send face pic's once a meet has been made definite always say upfront that we are not going to send a face pic just coz someone says Hi.

Once a rapport has been established, we have read their verifications and got to know them as best as we can without meeting face to face.

Then we arrange a meeting.

However it's always subject to approval if they don't like us we are happy to be told so certainly not going to throw a hissy fit and get all stroppy.

If someone chooses to send us pic's without us asking that's their choice.

Besides face pic's can be doctored and photoshopped.

The proof of the pudding... So to speak.

We are more interested in if they have a brain in their head rather than a pretty face.

However both is a bonus.

The site has a hugely diverse range of people and needs. You make fab work for you in the way that you need it to do.

You need pics first - it's right to continue clarifying this. You'll meet dead ends where others won't fulfill it.

I've come against the same barriers with others. If nothing else, it emphasises that filtering is all - and that we improve this as we learn.

I wouldn't dream of meeting anyone without seeing a face pic. I ask for one early on in the convo and my profile states this. It saves time imo. No point chatting to someone for ages to then see a face pic and think 'oh'
