Today, I realized my online dating profile has gotten more views with no picture than it has with my picture. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was talking to a girl online and she stopped talking to me abruptly after seeing my picture. FML
Today, I finally exchanged pictures with the woman I've been seeing online for some time now. She replied, saying "Thats not funny. Some people actually look like that." I sent my real picture, and thought I actually looked pretty good in it. FML
Today, I put on makeup for a picture. My Facebook profile picture. That's how much of a life I actually have. FML
Today, I went on an online date. I'd spent a while getting ready and making sure I looked good. When I arrived at the café, I saw my date and approached with a smile. He stood up, looked me over, and said, "Oh, I thought you were your profile picture’s friend." Then left. FML
Today, I was browsing the internet and I found a picture of my girlfriend on uglypeople.com. FML
Today, I finally met the guy I've been getting to know online in person for a date. When we saw each other, we both realized that we had heavily Facetuned our profile pictures. The awkward silence that followed was the longest five minutes of my life. FML
Today, I signed up for a dating site and used a photo of my mother and me at a wedding. Everyone stops responding when they find out they're talking to me and not her. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me I looked nice in my profile picture. I began to reply, "Aww, thank you!" until he sent another message saying, "Mostly because your face isn't in it." FML
Today, a friend showed me my husband's online dating profile, which includes photos of him with our kids. FML
Today, I uploaded my latest picture onto a photography website. It only got one comment, and even that was from someone advising me to never use the same hideous model ever again. It was a self-portrait. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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

There's always someone out there for everyone, OP. The right one will come web you least expect it. Don't loose hope!

I understand your plight. It doesn't matter how good your profile reads, if your not perceived as being physically attractive, you're out of luck.

Sad but true. And the trolls that only worry about your pic are not ones you really want to deal with anyway.

That's how it works. My Grindr profile only gets any ones attention when I don't have a self pic up...

I voted YDI just because you incorrectly used "then" instead of "than" in your description.

Do you have trouble jacking off to grammatically incorrect ****, by any chance?

Sometimes a little mystery is good.

Take the picture back down then! And you'll know that if you get any dates it wasn't from some vain person that only cares about looks
