Oh I would not worry. I can't even tell what your hair color is from this pic let alone what you really look like. How far from Kings Dominion are you? I am about 90 minutes north in DC.

Can't see much of the photo..but you put it up anyway and that's a big step for some..so well done and it's nice to see you (well almost.. ;))..I had mine up for nearly 3 years but thought I would give the guys a break from my mug shot.

You have to admit we have some fine looking guys here..glad you joined our gallery.

EDITED to add...that's much better and what a great photo, it really is nice to see you..at last.

Hugs

Hi Wisful~

I was just posting in the Dating Thread and noticed your pic.  I know it takes guts cause you always think someone is going to see you here.  I felt the same way at first and then said screw it.

You look great!  Happy Birthday, btw!

By the way, the guy on the far right is me in the avatar photo. I will put another up soon, but I wanted to put up a shot of those three gorgeous hunks I was with in San Francisco.

Its a small photo. I suppose if I really knew you real well I might be able to tell it was you but as far as the average joe on the street being able to ID you, I doubt it.

I think its wonderful and freeing when someone puts themselves out there for the world to see.... You are a confident strong person to do it.  Kinda like when you disclose to people your status you take your power back from the disease and from others and gain a greater amount of strength.  Just having my eyes in my profile is a step closer for me while I'm getting use to all this stuff.  (just over a year of being diagnosed and entering this club)   GOOD JOB
