Am I the only one that has a picture in their head that they want to see matches the person that they think they are talking to on here? Sarge---I have a feeling that I am imagining an older person than you really are, but you offer so much advice that I agree with. Alice---I taught with a wonderful English teacher my second year that healed my soul in so many ways. I still count her a dear friend. Your advice reminds me of her, so when I read your post I hear her voice saying them. This is just the start...I would never ask anyone to invade their privacy by posting a picture. I teach in a small school where I would be slammed for posting some of the things I do, so I would never post my own picture. But I want to give you a clue.... I am between ..... http://www.fotosearch.com/ISP004/isp0801142/ and http://www.fotosearch.com/BDX352/bxp67960/
That's quite the range! :haha: I'm terribly curious as well...I just want to know how accurate (or not, more likely) my mental images are. I'll send you a PM since I know you're out of state.
I'm told I bear a remarkable resemblance to this person (especially the pic in the blue dress), but with a bit of a curve to my nose.
We had this thread when I first joined the forum (nearly 2 thousand posts ago). I'm too chicken to share a photo of myself here, though if you follow me on Twitter I have my picture there. I am NOT ku_alum on Twitter. I always get "you look like a skinny Trisha Yearwood." I can see the resemblance, so here is a photo of her with a similar hair style as me (a lot of her photos have curly hair): http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...&ndsp=15&ved=1t:429,r:1,s:46&biw=1024&bih=677
I look like my sister. So much we could be twins (and are often mistaken for twins), even though she is 12 years older. How's that for helpful? :lol: Some of you I know from Facebook, but still sometimes to me you don't match your image!
I've always been curious about this as well. I remember when the original thread went around a few years back, and people put up their pictures for a few short moments. I'm too chicken as well to put up a photo, not because of the way that I look, but I guard my online identity as much as I can, although anyone who know me would be able to figure out who I am reading my posts.
Yes, I've always been curious as well as I have mental images in my head and they are probably all wrong!!
It would be neat if we could all find a celebrity or a picture of someone online that we sort of look like. It would help with the "mental picture" i guess. I will give it a shot.
I resemble Winona Ryder, especially in this pic...but her boobs are way nicer http://movies.popcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/winona-ryder.jpg
I don't post pictues online. But I'm 5'4" with Irish features: blonde hair (right now, it's short-- just above my chin-- and layered) and blue eyes. I'm of medium build.. a little heavier than I would like but still pretty thin. I'm 52 years old, but was told yesterday that I "wear it well."
I resemble Winona Ryder too but this one - my haircut is just about the same only a little lighter and a few more wrinkles around the eyes http://www.people.com/people/package/gallery/0,,20301963_20308766_20682784,00.html
I have no problem! Here are 2 of me within the last month. And I threw in one of my husband and I on our wedding day; sure he won't mind! Hope they aren't huge!
MissWull~I remember seeing pics of your wedding and thinking you were beautiful. I've been told I look like Drew Barrymore.
You do, STG! I don't mind my picture online. We have one on the Sprout website, which is my signature here.
Something about this thread is making me really glad I didn't put anything substantive in the "crushes" thread!
ALICE IS BLONDE?? Alice, I've always pictured you with dark, dark hair. I don't know why, just did! One person I wonder about is Major. Here's what I picture: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_D1idQc3q5PQ/TIgrmlwtBRI/AAAAAAAAAes/5GPVee50qbg/s1600/drill_sergeant.jpg
Bros, you so do not look like how I imagined you to. Cute high school picture. Well, I don't like to post pics of me online. I've been told of some actresses that I look like, but I don't see it. I did one of those who do you look like celebrity thing where you post your picture and it matches you up. According to the site, I looked like Kate Winslet the most, although I totally don't see it.
I've always imagined Alice with curly, short dark brown hair even though I KNOW she has blonde hair since she's mentioned it a few times now. She will always be that brunette to me.
Dave - you are EXACTLY as I pictured you you and your son do look exactly alike and both very handsome.
I agree! It's so funny that several of us had the same (wrong) idea! I have no idea who I look like...except for my mom, but with ash blonde hair.
Me too.. being Irish... did not think Blonde... My sis was blonde & she studied in Ireland... they thought she was well a "Pretty Woman" if you know what I mean LOL!!!! Far from it!!!
They are soooo adorable, ST82. You've had a busy year I bet. The celebrity picture idea sure is a good one. I don't know who I'd pick. All I know is that 30 years ago people thought I looked like Natalie Wood with blue eyes. Now they'd say Kathy Bates with short hair! Haha. Not exactly ..... But I sure have changed. I started going grey in my twenties, I'd say, and was completely grey by my mid-forties. I just go with what God intended these days and get compliments on my silvery hair. Some people think it is professionally colored. Alice - I pictured you exactly as you describe.
