Seeing this dress in a catalog with an extremely hot model is different than what someone looks like in the dress....Why not show us the real photo?

Do you have at least 5 or more other photos of you dressed in regular clothes and not coming off "too sexy" in your profile? This way, people will know you are a "real" person....and even though most every man on the planet loves a sexy and confident woman....they also want someone they can take home to mom...So maybe your photos and/or profile are not balanced in this way?

Have you ever put your profile/photos on the Using EH board for review?

No, it wouldn't be a problem. Profiles without photos get passed over, because I'd want to see who I'm going through GC with. Yes, personality/common interests and etc are essential, but there's gotta be some physical appeal even in the early stages of EH.

Biking Girl - I'm confused - what is your question? Are you sending that photo to men saying "this is me?" and asking if that's a ok?

I would think that unless you have a body like that model in the photo, that dress would be hard to pull off.

Thank you for your response!
All other photos are "activities" photos- hiking, biking, tennis. Mostly biking. Few dance pictures.
So, on all my photos I am wearing sport clothes.
No photos in the bars or party photos.

probably need some "Stepford Wives" pictures)))
oh, but honestly, it's not what I am looking for...
Then if you can rock that dress like the model, than I don't think it has anything to do with the men closing your profile.

As mentioned, it may be good to post your profile for review just to see if there is anything that may be standing out in a negative way...But I can't imagine that if you look good in this dress that it would ever be the reason a man decides to close based on being pretty/sexy....

I hope that you are only using online dating as just one extra way to be meeting men as it can be slow going at times...

funny, but yes, pretty much the same- not that curvy though.
Why "hard to pull off" ? I think it's standard version of little black dress. I am not right?
Hard to pull off because it's very tight fitting in a thin fabric. Dresses like that will show off every flaw, imperfection, bump, lump, etc, so you have to have a bangin' body to look great in them. Otherwise, they are not very flattering. I'm not saying you couldn't, I have no idea what you look like, but just saying it's hard to do.
