I often wonder what a poster looks like and whether they are male or female. For months I thought lufa was a female!
I like the anonymity of the site, but at times wished I could back up my posts by publishing our facebook page.
I never lie or embellish on here; I see no need. I have 66 years of life experiences with a lot of international and national adventures, a couple of failed marriages, two kids and quite a few short and long term relationships, from which to draw on for my posts. My present girl friend is 41 years my junior, not fat, ugly or needy; she's thought to be quite pretty by all who meet her.
Until this post I didn't even know a picture could be posted in IIN, and I still do not know how to do it.
I have no idea if it would be a good thing to post my picture on here. But for those few who responded positively to my posts (most hate me, I believe), I would like them to have an idea of what I look like.
It's not like anyone could track me down or anything (I don't live in the US, though I am an American), but I've never liked it when my picture is on the dart board as a target (long story), and really, I get enough grief as a faceless asshole, as it is.
I thought lufa was female for a long time too haha.
I don't think anyone "hates" you. You could tone down the boasting about your young girlfriend sailing the world with you...but that's just annoying, not hate-worthy.
You could also show some respect to users here. Your opinions are welcome, no matter how different, but please don't insult people. Trust me...most here don't agree with me.
Look...I'm an old guy who had an affair with a young woman a few years ago myself. I grew up in the Virgin Islands and earned my sea-legs at a very young age. I'd actually love to, someday, get a trimeran and sail around the world. That's very cool that you can do that.
Honestly, I don't mean it boastfully, when I talk about my young girlfriend. It's more meant to inspire; good things could happen to you too. Look what I've got going and I'm nobody special, etc.
Sorry it doesn't come out that way.
Is it normal to visualize what other users look like?
