We remembered our very first couple we met on here in the early 2000s . I really had the hots for the girl from her pics, she looked good. When we met was not case she was like close to 200 had 120 on her profile said her pic was from high school, and she thought there was no problem with that.
RonKathy, I just want to say that you both look great in your pics. However, there must be a typo with your ages. There is no way that you guys are 69. Maybe that means that is what you are interested in!
We also have been wanting to post some newer pics but with the pic posting issues we are not going to deal with it. All of our current ones are within the last year to year and a half so not much has changed but the wife looking even sexier.
So we would post new photos almost monthly on SLS... over months now we tried and ALL come in sideways.. we delete them immediately and will not have those on our profile.. last time was the first of the year from Charleston visit.. wish we could post more but now they want you to do this.. do that to post...
I know Developer is aware and working on it! Yeah Right!
We also like having some older pix that show our interests, even if we haven't gotten to do those things lately. I feel that we look pretty much like our pix but we don't really do selfies and the cool stuff happens when there aren't other people around lol
I guess we could get another neutral pix so y'all can see what we look like right now.
We were about to meet up with a couple we've been chatting with for a while. I took a pic, sent it, and said, "Here's a pic from today so you can be sure who you're looking for" and asked for one of them. We had a great first meeting, really hit it off and had a nice afternoon. They weren't at all upset we asked and understood why.
My opinion of how close we look to our photos may not be someone else's opinion and don't want to misrepresent ourselves because attraction is partly based on how pretty we look. Or don't look...
We had the very same situation but we couldn't say of them. We would rather do events now than these blind dates. My wife gets so disappointed when they look nothing like their pics. Especially the men.
“ Blind dates SUCK!!! ”
Mrs. 888 says I’m as blind as a bat and it sucks when she’s right.

These replies are great!! I just wanted to jump on here and add my two cents about looking like your pics… being the female in the relationship, if you don’t look like your pics, what a cruel joke it is! Considering most pics of the male half seem to be of his dick, it’s super annoying when you think you’ve found a good-looking one and it turns out his pic was from 5 years ago :(. Blind dates SUCK!!! Lol
If any of you ever run into us, what you see in our pictures will be exactly what we look like- for better or worse. From Day 1, we decided that there would be no ‘filtering’ or disguising who or what we look like. I really wish more did that.
So, guessing you didn't make it far enough at the club to see if bush was still in the office?
I exchanged emails with a couple that signed up to attend a club at the same time I was. They opened photos for me so that I could see their faces and make my introductions at the club. I think the photos they have on SLS were from 2004 when they made the profile. I can say with high confidence pics were taken when Bush was in office.
Pffft. How about simply actually being the things you say you are in your profile, period?
Again I'll suggest that we all just start time stamping out photos
@ flalovemonkeys at least the photo upload and gallery management is better than it was when I was on here before! I would be so frustrated with the turtle pace.
The pic approval is much faster also. I remember waiting 2 to 3 days for photos to be approved in the old days!
in defense of older pics . . . the pic upload and gallery management function on this website is a nightmare. and, considering I have thousands of potential pics changing anything is a major undertaking. I started to try and do it last week and gave up. i'll try again soon.
in the meantime our pics are, truly, representative. i promise.
"Wow, you guy look just like your pictures" is a comment we get often when meeting. What a shame it has to come as a surprise. We try and keep our pics updated as frequently as possible, usually monthly adding new ones to make sure we are accurately representing who we currently are.
As someone coming back to the site after many years away, I thought it was interesting how many couples we interacted with 'back in the day' still have the exact photos they had in 2008.
We just date stamp our pics.
The older ones often show where we have been or activities that we enjoy. They provide context for our written profile.
The newer ones show us as we are now . Dates clearly placed avoid confusion.
We also met a couple that had really old pictures on their site. Since that time, I look to see how long the couple has been on SLS. I ask how current the pictures are if they have been on here for something around 10 years. I also ask if the posted age is current. I try to make changes on our site occasionally just to freshen it up because I know people will look multiple times through the years.
Sorry but posting pics that are far from what you really look like is deceptive. We met with a couple from here where their pics look great. Not the case when in person. They must have been at least 10 yrs older and 50 lbs heavier. A complete waste of our time.
@SLOtowner: that was a very nice post. I like the way you worded that.
I don’t agree with or really understand why women or men would be intentionally deceptive with their photos (or lack thereof) as I think that they are setting themselves up for potential rejection in the end.
However, the way you worded your take on the topic was very nice. Cudos

I dunno TV... I've seen some profiles where my initial reaction was "why the hell would they post that?"
LOL never.. !!
Always a good time.. and this time "Ron" in Charleston didnt even dye his hair... why you ask.. skin DR 6 month check up.. but its dyed now !
Come on thats funny!
You don't ever have ask me that @RonKathy.... Sometimes I come on SLS and check out your new pics like I'm clocking into work. Seriously. Kathy is a stunner!! Always with her big smile and slim fit curvy body. So yea.... I'll definitely write a few certs about that fact.....
Unless of course you think I need some more experiences with you before I write up a good one ;)
