How far should I go with a picture-less dating profile?

Don't get attached to anyone online. Don't add a person to Facebook that you have never even met. You don't want her knowing all about your life, your friends, etc. It's none of her business yet. You ony share that with someone you actually know and want to have access to that.

Just meet her soon for a coffee at Starbucks. If she is fat or ugly then you only wasted 30 minutes having coffee and don't have to ever see her again. It's better than emailing back and forth or talking on the phone for weeks only to later discover you aren't attracted to her after you had wasted weeks or months

Online dating works best as an introduction only. Try to meet face to face as soon as you can - either there is chemistry or physical attraction or there isn't. If there isn't then you only wasted less than an hour to find this out. Why spend days or weeks chatting online then find out later that all that time you could have been chatting to someone else?
