If you're not comfortable meeting the person with or without a pic then don't meet them.

Would i be suspicious, yes thats my nature...

I would be wondering if in a job that He doesn't want to be exposed, married or ?

I would ask why not a picture?

Whatever your gut instincts are about the guy, they are very likely correct.

i'd suggest you follow your instincts as well. if i'm going to meet someone it is probable we've had a conversation outside of here and have spoken on the phone or at the very least exchanged a few notes. if the person was unwilling to share an image of themselves via email or some other method the meeting would never happen. i'm not going anywhere with a sign announcing myself.

Okay, also I had no pictures uploaded and would not, at the time, have had any idea about how to send one. Technology in many ways for me has reached the point where it is sufficiently advanced to be indistinguishable from magic. And yeah, the teen solves the cell phone problems, if he doesn't the guy in the store will.

Status: offline 		I don't know...I don't have any pics to share cuz the few I do have suck.  And I've met guys who didn't show me a pic first.  It makes no never mind to me either way.  I can understand those who say they don't have pics up because of their careers......I'd be screwed if anyone found me here, because of the close-mindedness of alot of my co-workers and worse, supervisors.  I may joke about whips and chains, but that's all they see it as, which is fine and dandy with me.  And them having a pic doesn't make it any easier to spot the married guys versus the single ones.  Now that I think about it, the three people who were permanent play partners with me never showed me pics either......

I'm more of a "go with my guts" type person.  That has served me well over the years, and not just in the lifestyle.  I know that because of my job, I can hear things in people's voices that most folks don't......it's really sort of cool, actually.  But I can pick up on the BS in online conversations....may take a little longer, but it's pretty easy to spot.

Once again we are on the same page. It would send up a huge red flag if he wouldn't give me a pic at the very least before meeting up. It doesn't bother me if someone doesn't have a pic on their profile but I do want to know what they look like once we have made plans to meet.

Status: offline 		I don't see the importance really. If you meet and have no chemistry, you aren't ever going to meet again so what does it matter if you know his address, phone number, etc. It's when you click and decide to keep going that I think you really need to exchange info. But I don't play on first meets, obviously it's different if you do or may.

Status: offline 		With my job I can't risk it. I have on 2 occasions had a potential client be someone I met on the net and it never got past the e mail stage. I may have lost those accounts if I had been "outed". On one occasion the son of a client, an elderly lady, came over while I was there. I knew who he was but he didn't know who I was. He had sent me a very vulgar e mail after I decided I did not want to meet him. I would have lost a very profitable account had he known who I was. Nope. I will never send my pictures to anyone.

Status: offline 		If we had plans to meet I'd want to see a picture. I'm not walking in somewhere looking around for a guy in a blue coat or whatever, that's just so undignified and rather silly. It's been my experience that those people who are reluctant with pictures or won't give them out have something to hide so that sends up a red flag in my opinion. On the opposite side I've had someone who works for Homeland Security send me a picture prior to our meeting. If he could do it then most anyone else I'd meet can do it too.

As far as it being common practice I'd have to say just about everyone I've met online has at least offered to send me a picture or two. That's just me though...
