Why Do Most Girls Use There Old Pictures On Social Media by Blackmoran(m): 4:51pm On Aug 30, 2020
I once shared a experience on this forum on how I met a girl on a community group chat in Facebook back in 2012, she was base in Enugu while I reside in Lagos.

our friendship started mutual and later it went intimate, on are profile pics and uploaded picture if am to rate her from 1 to 10 i will give are a 7. and what make me fall for this girl is are funny Igbo accent wish sound weird to me.

to cut the story short after 6 month we decide to meet each other so she traveled from Enugu to lagos the night of the day she was to come I couldn't sleep, all that was in my mind was this girl that night I can't count how many times I checked her picture...

the next morning she called me she was at the park, I rushed got dress with great joy and rushed to the park, on getting there I called to locate her.
That day I thank God I saw her first before she saw me, I was so disappointed my joy just turn to rage this girl I was looking straight ahead was big like a whale if me and her where to walk hand in hand for a moonlight stroll our shadow will be like number 10, she is times 3 of me..

God forgive me that day I just switch of my phone and head back home and I never picked her call again, I felt bad for what I did but logically I think she deserve it, cause she was deceitful she was using a picture of many years ago when she was still younger...

this is back in 2012 and when I thought it's just a one off things this year I met another lady on Instagram, cute pictures.. she is into selling of men shoes and cloth, at first I started as a customer when I order she sent her junior kid brother to deliver at my place so I never met her personally until one conversation lead to another our discuss became romantic, so we decided to met early last week..
But this time I wasn't lucky she saw me first she ran to hug me at that moment I felt the ground should open up and swallow me, I don't like calling people ugly but in my life time I will never walk up to her to ask her out if we are to meet in person.. but thank God it was evening...

this habit now is getting out of hand I don't know if it is a problem with Nigeria girls or its something global, but anyhow girls please I want to ask why do most of you like using old pictures of what you are not alike again?

Who doesn't like to look good always? If most people wants to display picture, of course, they'll look for the best picture irrespective of when it was taken. It's not peculiar to only ladies, I've seen men do it too.

The pictures on my Facebook profile were taken in 2012, I've not seen picture I like like them so, I didn't change them. However, I always tell anyone I get talking with that the pics were since 2012 when they talk about how they would like to see my beautiful face.
I don't hide that fact. I've even told few people, I don't look that good again.

Who doesn’t know that majority of girls upload their finest pictures on social forum .
Market must sell now
If they use the present picture you may not find them attractive again

if she maintains herself she can still look she way she looked in the past
i bet why u got disapointed is because she looks fatter compared to what she looked in the picture she sent u
she added weight and dats just normal
if she exercises or diets she would still look as she looked few yrs back even if she looks a bit older
dont feel too bad cheesy
its not the end of the world
at least it was her picture she uploaded so she wasnt deceitful
if u feel letdown then what can u say about ladies who are fond of uploading their friend"s pix who happens to be more preety or a picture of their preetier younger sister in a bid to deceive guys cheesy.

with photoshopping and other appraratus ladies dont even need to use their older pics.just airbrush the recent pix and they good to go.
for guys into social media dating wetin i go advice before them meet a girl they should try and do a video chat with her.99 percent of fones we have now have cameras so no babe can make any excuse about her fone not having a camera.

So you abandoned a lady that travelled from Enugu to Lagos at the park simply because she wasn't what you expected? Did you ever consider her safety?

Damn, you're heartless. sad

They prefer using old pics to recent pic. Some don't even update their age, they shunt it.

Girls wish they don't grow old, they wanna be young forever but time flies.

It's called wickedness not smartness.
You can't be friends with someone and wouldn't bother asking for 'other' pictures.

That was wicked of you.

What of men who put up bold pics only to meet them.in person and they are 4ft in height?

I remember in 2013, I met one on Facebook. He looked so huge in his pics (mostly sitting posture) and I tot he was a giant but when we met, hmm... I was like , "gosh!" He was so shorrrrt.. But I just played along and on my way back I vowed, not me. Though along the line I got to like him but on a friendly note. That did not say I should abandon him at the restaurant cos I could have done so if I wanted to but I believe we should learn to love and be accommodating. Imagine the distance she had to travel to come see you and you treated her like a piece of trash. I can't do such. Its heartless.

As for old pics, its not anybody's biz which I use. Sometimes I even use my baby pics when i was three months old. So?? Though I feel more comfy using recent pics so I know what to adjust looking at my current. Cos using the old one can even be deceptive to you not making you know when to watch that weight. So what I have in all my profiles are recent. As recent as yesterday Sunday after church.

Hm... See them rushing to check my profile lol.... grin

Be there hugging and falling in love with pictures. Dont get real.
