I’m in a bit of a quandary here. I usually ignore "winks" from people on Match.com as they tend to originate from abroad and are a lazy way of communicating. I also tend to steer clear of anyone without a picture – after all, what have they got to hide? But, this is where my dilly of a pickle of a predicament starts.
I’ve received a wink today from someone local whose profile doesn’t include a picture, but never the less seems rather interesting. She lists a number of places she fancies visiting which I’ve always wanted to see, she’s a vet (a career I very much admire in people) plus she has a number of interests that are very different to what I’m interested in – always a handy talking point. Oh, and there’s a child in the equation too (not a problem as far as I’m concerned).
I never try to judge a book by its cover so her profile becomes all the more interesting as, without that picture, it only gives me her personality to go on. Given my lack of success, I just wonder whether I should break my own rules and send a reply.

Never hurts to see. I've been burned by those without a pic though. You shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, but there has to be some attraction. If anything you've made a friend. Maybe she knows some cute single lassies for you.
I have one friend who had an extremely successful experience with internet dating. The first (and only) guy she met up with is still going strong over two years later - they've just bought a house together.
She didn't post a photo.
Not becasue she's got something to hide, far from it, she's a good-looking lass. I guess she just wanted to be judged for her personality. They exchanged pics after a few emails.
Go for it...
