Quote: Nogget @ July 20 2010, 5:46 AM BSTI've found that a lot of women treat their 'about me' section like a CV, except that instead of fighting to get a job, they are fighting for a relationship. They write about how wonderful they are, what interesting pastimes they partake in and just how damned great they would be for the 'job'. And just like in a CV, the truth tends to fall far short of this. Especially with photos.
However, there are some other women who do the opposite, and present themselves as less interesting and attractive than they really are, so you never know what to expect. For example, my current gorgeous girlfriend, who I met on one of these sites, used a blurry photo, of her face only, and the colour balance was all wrong, making her look green.
The only thing you can do is just go for it and see what happens. Expect the people to be different IRL to how they seemed online.
Of course, none of this applies to men...
