I reluctantly posted all 26 pics so you can get a better picture of me (no pun intended)... I'd like to see what you're about too, so please post some of your current photos in different settings (not just head shots) and add captions. We're all busy, so don't waste anybody's time if you're not going to post any. If you decide to send me an email, tell me 5 or more random things about yourself, that way I'll know you read my profile right to the bitter end...and that tells me a lot! lol
To be honest, I'm really nervous about meeting complete strangers this way I won't reply to winks, interest, favourites, likes, views,IM's...could there be anything else they add to make this any more complicated and creepy? I could be a quiet observer for a while-unlike creeping.
