I would never do that because I don't want to ever deal with a date being disappointed in my looks when meeting me in real life for the first time. Plus, it seems really dishonest. It's one thing to wear makeup for the photos you take for OLD, and to show up to your dates wearing makeup that minimizes your bad features and highlights your good ones. But to deliberately alter your photo to make you look different from what you'd ever look like is misleading.

I guess it would apply to under 50 yr olds who are on date apps.

No! Literally no one wants to show up for a date to a person that doesn’t look like their photos. Sure way to not get a second date.

I don’t use OLD apps, but if I did I would not use any type of filters.

Because then there would be too much pressure to live up to that ideal on the first date.

I have bags under my eyes + hate them, but I would never completely remove them in a picture…..most especially for a dating picture! 🤳🏼

I use to, not anymore. It takes time to get over insecurities but eventually it happened.

Wondering especially if you're a woman
