ORIGINAL: Timidamy I've been talking to a dominant man online for about 2 weeks now, following his orders and such , its been very fun and i like him alot Neither of us had seen the others face, he hasn't seen mine because my camera is broken (still in the shop, i'll get it back soon) and i hadn't seen his face because it never came up. i figure he'll show me when he's ready, no big deal. Heres the thing though, for some reason i thought of googling his online handle and i actually found a picture of him online....and it turns out that i don't find him very attractive.... That said i do not want to end the relationship because of such a shallow thing when he seems so compatible with me in every other way. I do feel bad about this though, knowing what he looks like without him knowing what i look like feels to me like i have a sort of power over him, and i don't want that at all! Also i feel guilty for not being attracted to him So heres my question: Do i tell him that i've seen his picture? and if i do what do i do if he asks if i find him attractive? lie? I don't care too much about his looks but maybe he does, and i so don't want to hurt him, but honesty is the most important part of our relationship. please help... thanks in advance, amy I think you should have a lot more questions that you actually have. You have been talking online for TWO WEEKS. That is a significantly short period of time. Was it wrong of you to do a little "detective" work and google him? Absolutely not. Depends on why you did it to a point. I have googled someone that I speak with because I was curious (not suspicious) about what they told me they did for a living. Did you google him because you had some kind of suspicions or distrust or were you just looking to learn more? Either way, you say how he is on the other side of the globe from you. Certainly after a mere 2 weeks, it would be foolish to consider such types of relocation. Have such things even been discussed anyway is such a short period of time? It sounds as though this would be more of an "online" relationship moving forward. You say you didn't find him "very attractive". That means a lot of things. Is he just average looking, or did the picture make you want to barf? Pictures are not always accurate either. I remember several years ago, meeting a man who I had met through another online dating site. Wow, did he look good in his picture. We went out to dinner. I could tell that it was indeed the same man as the one in the picture, but a professional photographer can work wonders. In other words, the complete opposite, attractive in photo, no so much in person. Anyway, being he is halfway around the world, and it would seem that since that is the case, your relationship is likely to remain of an "online" nature, what difference does it make how he looks? You might also question the issue of feeling guilty for not being attracted to physically to someone.
