I care, as well as a lot of other people. This is to everyone: If it's a picture of a car or some other non-offensive object, creature or famous person, that's fine. But posting a fake (human, of course) picture of yourself, trying to pass that picture off as you is completely shady and dishonest. As much as personality matters, so does physical attraction. I'm not going to fault anyone for meeting someone in person and then running the other way when it turns out that that person looks nothing like their picture.

It's not just the physical aspect of it, but the honesty aspect. Letting someone think you look one way just to get that person to date you and then say, "Hey, I guess you never really cared about me if you are going to let a little thing like what I look like break us up" when that person wants to back out is hardly any different than a woman trying to trap a man by saying she's pregnant when she's really not. If it's as simple as not caring about looks, then that person would not have presented a fake picture in the first place and would have trusted his or her personality to see them through.

Talking with someone over the Internet is not that much different than talking with someone in person. Imagine that in-person person suddenly having a different face the next day. It would be an extremely weird and difficult situation. You would feel as though you are talking with a stranger, no matter how much in common that person has with you as did "the previous person." When I think of my loved ones, the first thing I think of is their faces. I'm pretty sure all people do. We do not simply love the personality but the package the personality comes in as well -- the face.

To the poster of this thread, if you mean any of this, I completely see where you are coming from.
