Many of us who have tried online dating has overlooked the importance of having a great picture in our profile. There are quite a few reasons why people do not post their picture. Some people are shy, some people do not feel safe posting their picture, some people think it's not important, and some people do not have a picture.
Physical appearance is very important to most people that's why it's important to have a good picture in your profile. Mutual attraction is very important, there are many members who will only initiate contact with other members who have a nice picture in their profile. If you have created a great profile but you do not have a pic you will be overlooked by many potential dating partners. Many people believe that if they have a well written personal profile it will not matter if they do not have a picture posted.
This is false, sometimes people will read your profile and try to analyze you and they will ask themselves why you do not have a picture in your profile. This may have a negative effect on you even if your profile is well written. People want to see who they are talking to.
When you decide to add a picture to your profile you should be honest, you should add a recent picture of yourself. You should not add an old picture especially if you look better in the old picture than you do at the moment. You may have aged a bit and you may have gained some extra weight since that picture was taken many years ago. However, you should always remember that you are still attractive and you stand a better chance of finding your ideal partner by being honest and posting a recent picture. People who are chatting with you want to see the real you, not the way you were 10 years ago. Posting a picture of someone else is another common mistake people make in online dating.
Doing this can cause many unnecessary problems when you go on a first date with someone you met online. Your date will question your integrity and honesty and they may feel deceived by your actions. Honesty is the key to success when posting your picture online. If you have a recent picture of yourself and you think it's a great picture you should add it to your profile.
If you don't have a nice picture you should have one taken.
