1. Not overly important but can same some time.

2. Very important, no point in endless chatting if the attraction isn't there, it's a waste of time for all involved.

3. Wouldn't ever meet someone without seeing what they look like.

4. We like to send on first or second message.

Not fussed about first message.

Not fussed for early messaging.

I do want one before a meet so I know who I'm looking for.

I share mine when I feel there's enough mental attraction to assess the physical. Sometimes first, sometimes not.

1. With first message don't

2. While exchanging early messages don't

3. Before a meet important

I prefer to get to know someone then later exchange photos it surprising how well connected a person can be without knowing what each other may look like and I've definitely been surprised in a good way call it blind dating

1. Within first couple of message

2. early on or whats the point in carrying on chatting as sexual attraction is very important

3. Before a meet not meeting without one no such thing as a sympathy shag

4. And if important, do you share yours first? who ever messages first show face pic first my rule and i stick to it as its a great filter cause 60/70% will not send a pic and thats great its their choice if i message first and i do then ull send mine first no problems

Definitely very important ! U need to be attracted along with the personality and chat . The order in which you come to that should all be quite quick . And up to you to then arrange a social or meet x

Re your no.4 answer, I think that is a fair request.

Not fussed with first message but is becoming a bit more of a prerequisite from women near me.

Early on is important to save time.

Definitely before a meet. I couldn't imagine doing one without.

Can't remember the last one.

Not straight away no.

We like to build up some trust first before showing face pics by asking certain questions when messaging back and for, that’s to make sure none of us know each other, as discretion is very important to us. But do show face pics, as we feel there has to be an attraction for all before taking it further.

I don't expect a face pic first message, but if we're getting on I'd like to swap one early on.

I wouldn't ever meet without seeing what someone looks like, they could be anyone.

I'll be honest, I rarely send my face pic 1st as I'm not often that interested in anyone.

1. Not important for me, but will show if others requiers.

2. Not so important in the beginning, if there is exchange of other pics.

3. Always

4. I dont mind to show first. Depends who ask for it and the setting in the chat

I always keep my face hidden in my public photos due to work but I'm always happy to send a face picture and 9 times out of 10 will send it it in a first message.

And like others say, I'd quite like to see if the attraction is mutual and would like a face picture within the first few messages too.

I've never sent a facepic with a first message.

Physical attraction is pointless if we have nothing in common so I generally don't share facepics unless I've already agreed to meet someone and we need to know what each other looks like in the coffee shop.

They have never been dealbreakers as far as I'm concerned because I don't meet people socially with the expectation of sex afterwards.

I have gone on social meets knowing full well beforehand that it works not go beyond that one social but I've been happy to meet someone new and chat casually.

My reluctance to share them is based on experience where other people have passed my facepic and personal details around their fab circles.

My refusal to send them has never impacted on my ability to meet people so as far as I'm concerned they are not important.

Personally we don’t send face pics at all , we clearly state it in our profile , we like to chat and get a feel for some one , as much as you can via messages , if it seems right we arrange a meet , if we don't click then no hard feelings , it’s a nice drink and friendly chat , if we do then it’s game on … this works for us , some don’t want to take the chance on what they call a blind meet but how would you know they were our photos anyway , yes there are plenty of time wasters and pic collectors on here , our verifications hopefully speak for us . But not everyone is the same , each must take their own journey , this is ours and this is how we play , you are just as entitled to make your own rules

For a first message it's really not that important for me, equally so during any early or nascent messaging.

By the time I meet someone we've already exchanged photos through WhatsApp or Telegram.

In my experience the woman (mostly) shares her photograph first.

3: if we haven’t seen a face pic we won’t arrange a meet

4: we personally have ours on our public gallery

1. Not essential but decent face pic may be difference to responding or not to a mediocre first message.

2. Not essential in early messages but a good face pic may help keep our attention if we like the person/people we see. A face pic gives just that little more insight into the person/people we're talking to.

3. 100% bloody essential, it's not blind date. As much as personal qualities and personality are important to us, faces are very important to us too. A face tells a lot and is a big part of our physical attraction too.

4. If we initiate contact we generally will send a face pic first in the first few messages (unless they decide to beat us to it). However if the other party initiates contact we expect them to send the first face pic. Think that's fair.

We like a face pic so it’s easier to spot the other couple or lady when we go to meet them..

Face pic once you’ve been talking for a day or so I’d say was a reasonable request, cause you got to have some physical attraction

I like to see a face pic pretty quickly. I will almost always send one on my first message if I am initiating and on one of the first messages back if I think the conversation has legs.

If people don’t want to send a face pic then that is a big warning sign to me.

I’ll usually send a face pic with my first message. It’s nice to get one back but understand if people want to wait a bit. I’d never meet without seeing one though

With first message - ideal but not essential really, so long as there is something on the profile to go on.

Early exchanges - yes we expect a fairly early swap of pics.

Before a meet - absolutely essential.

1- Not so important for messages I receive, but I noticed that for the ones I sent face pics have made the difference between the message being unopened and receiving a response (positive or negative).

2 and 3- Crucial, as beyond shyness and privacy at some point you need to know what the other person/people look like. We're all here to shag people who we like after all.

4- 99.9% of times I am initiating contact and I always send a face pic along. Saves people time reading a long messages if they don't fancy my ugly mug

We’re actually thinking of moving away from Fab towards other platforms where it’s almost exclusively face pics, we’d both rather see that first than people’s pink bits!!

Nice if it happens without a prompt but not really necessary.

2. While exchanging early messages

Preferably yes.

3. Before a meet

Very definitely or I don't meet unless a GH maybe.

4. And if important, do you share yours first?

I've no problem with it if we've chatted and the conversation is good or the interest is there.

Often I send first.

I read their profile. If they stipulate they want one with first message then I'll oblige.

If we get chatting and there is a connection where things could progress then usually we'd swap face pics before that happens.

I'm happy to send mine first, and always provide when asked directly. That said, I have had a meet without - and would meet them again.

There’s plenty of people who state “no pic no reply” etc.

Yet they “don’t have any pics to upload” or expect a meet without them sending a pic.

1. Never local

2. There comes a natural time when the trust vibes are building yes .. varies according to the person and the chat.

3. Never get as far as a meet but definetly face picture exchange before 1st meet. But a blind social meet can be fun lol. It's only a coffee for an hour odds and you never know as looks will decieve you 90pc of the time anyway. A deeply filthy sexual connection can certainly happen despite not actually finding someone facially gorgeous .. it's nature so infinitely variable.

4. What was 4 again ?? Before sex ? Lol

Id never imagine that ..
