OH! also just as a PS - I've noticed that a lot of ppl can be really nice and sweet in a chat room, but then after they've seen pictures its seems they kinda lose interest. In some cases, it could be nothing, but in a lot of cases (and i admit I've done this before, until God worked in my heart) it seems once they've seen what a person looks like and dont find them attractive, all communication is over.
both guys and girls - whether it be in the online community or in real life - do not let appearence change how you treat them. Do not let the fact that you don't find them attractive keep you from getting to know them. Maybe a lot of you don't deal with that, but if anyone does, ask God to help you see the true beauty in people. The most beautiful people are those that have beautiful hearts... Look beyond the skin, and get to know the heart.
I know as a girl, from personal experience, most times when we meet guys, it seems like they are sizing us up. Sometimes it feels like there is a scale in a guys head and I can almost watch it work. So guys, please give the young women you meet a chance - even to just make a new friend. Just because you don't think she is "hot" doesnt mean you should treat her as such. Treat her like a woman, and give her the respect she deserves.
Same goes for girls, treat guys with respect. Don't disregard them just because you don't think they are good looking.
I truly believe we should get to know the hearts of people, and not focus on the faces.
