Today, I realized my online dating profile has gotten more views with no picture than it has with my picture. FML
I agree, your life sucks 50 617
You deserved it 5 560

Same thing different taste

No picture = a hopefully gorgeous person in their minds

That's because they think you're mysterious without a picture? Maybe use a different picture. Shoulders back, big smile, good lighting, some photos just aren't flattering

don't loose faith OP. it's not the look that matters but how natural you look and how much confidence and happiness you display.

Well if they're only going to talk to you for looks then they're not really worth it, atleast without a picture they get to really meet you :)

Oh come on stop with all this personality stuff. Yes I do agree that personality is a big part but if the person does not appear initially attractive to another person then they more than likely won't end up together. Humans are shallow most people would go looks first then get to know the person.

May I suggest that you use an alternate photo for your profile? Don't worry, OP, most people are not photogenic and photos are a poor representation of what we look like. Humans are use to seeing each other at multiple angles, photos usually don't provide us that luxury.

Well spoken! Couldn't have put it better myself. That's probably why children are more photogenic, they rarely actually pose...

Put a picture up describing your personality, break the system!

A picture is worth a thousand words so make it a good one.

Make sure you have someone else take your pic... I don't think "selfies" ever turn out very well.

A little bit of mystery does the trick.

Well ever since the show called "catfish" on MTV has came out, I wouldnt trust anyone's online dating picture anyways...

I love the sentiment here, but please avoid text speak on FML. We don't have a 140-character limit here, so it's really not necessary :)
