LookAtThisPOst Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) ...are a turn off. (Moderator removed URL) Interesting quick videoon how 62% of women, they look their soon-to-be dates online to see what kind of "Shenanigans" their future prospects are into. If they see a good batch of pics with your friends with drinks in hand...they may wind up cancelling. This could may influence her opinion of you. It was even mentioned to keep your LinkedIN accounts up-to-date, because some women tend to look their prospects up on that site, too, to see how well you're doing career-wise. Interesting, updating your LinkedIN for dating purposes? Thoughts on this? Women, do you judge a woman on the content of his social media pictures? This is, of course, is the fact you already know what he looks like. Edited August 22, 2015 by a LoveShack.org Moderator removed self promoting commercial facebook URL
d0nnivain Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Maybe. If all I see is party pictures I'm going to think all the person does is party. Employers do this as well as potential dates. Try putting the beverage down when someone points a camera at you. 2
Rejected Rosebud Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 If you're meeting a guy through the Internet everything you find out about him on the Internet is all you have to go by! If you find out things that you don't like of course you should not go out with him!! Why would you?? 1
GemmaUK Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Checking out social media/linked in is pretty standard these days isn't it? All party pics would put me off at my age. I'm not averse to a party at all but having met so many men in their forties who drink like they are in their twenties it would an off putter or make me hang back and see what he was like - but that goes with all and any dating anyway. All kinds of pics can put people off.
Rejected Rosebud Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 All kinds of pics can put people off. Yeah like a guy posing without his shirt on by his fancy car or boat, or with the elk he just shot. He would probably be wearing his shirt in that elk picture, a cammo one. Still a turn off totally though!!
GravityMan Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 In my opinion, any information about you that is publicly available online is fair game for anyone else to look at, analyze, and draw whatever conclusions (positive, neutral/indifferent or negative) that they see fit. It doesn't matter if their conclusions are accurate or not. "Anyone else" can mean employers, colleagues, women/men dating you (or considering dating you), your parents...anyone. Most LinkedIn profiles are public, and many people keep them up to date for professional and networking reasons. It's impact (if any) on a person's dating life is a by-product.

I don't really keep mine up-to-date, no need to. I just put in a name, college years, then stopped. If I apply for a job, I just send an attached resume and fill out their online app.
endlessabyss Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Keeping LinkedIn updated for dating purposes? LOL!!!! So glad I don't have any of that garbage to worry about.
Rejected Rosebud Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 We're talking Facebook pics, not pics uploaded to online dating sites. That doesn't matter at all, the way a person chooses to represent themself online means something about who they are. If their friends put the pictures up it's a different story but if for example I choose to put a pic of me in a bikini with a bottle of tequila sitting on a guy's lap (just saw one exactly like this from a 4th of July party!) then you are getting info about who I am. It's not all about the activity but more about why you want to be known that way.
