Twilish Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I’ve been going back and forth on if i have one up or not. Part of me feels weird that anyone i know or a weirdo could potentially recognize me in public on those apps with my face up but also hate when people ask for a face pic and then stop answering etc What does ATRL think?

Sheep Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Pretty much everywhere but Sniffies. If somebody recognizes me that's their problem, I'm just living my best life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniffles is a whole different beast but i only have 2 people in particular from work honestly that i would be pretty mortified if they saw my 3/4th nude body on the app but maybe they’d be interested 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightingale Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Yeah. I block people I know in real life. I live in the suburbs so haven’t really run into that many weirdos who recognize me from the app It’s also just easier because then everyone messages you first and there’s no awkward sending face pic and then ghosting because they’re not into your face. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesus del rey Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 No, I don't want weirdos to recognize me in public. When I had Grindr, I had a pic of my torso and v-lines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah this is the main reason i usually stick with a face pic as it doesn’t happen all the time but when it does it sometimes stings 2 minutes ago, jesus del rey said: No, I don't want weirdos to recognize me in public.

Donquizote Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Yes. Even if I don't have it, someone else will use my face pic anyway. I caught five users so far using my face pic on grindr That's why I told my grindr hook up to straight away text me on instagram if they saw me at somewhere far from my place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really need attention that bad that you’ll just fake being another random person? As i say this i remember they have a whole TV show about this so it’s obviously a common occurrence.

There are way too many users who get off jerking off while chatting/exchanging pictures. I usually say after like 5 messages if we should meet. Two face pics, one dic pic/naked body should be enough. If they keep asking for more I just block them. None of thise that chatted with me for like hours actually met with me. Yup I use my face pic but will reconsider it now that I hear those can actually be stolen and reused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
