Choices (but why that choice?)

Was flipping through profiles on SA and found a very attractive woman in her early forties. I was about to reach out to her and then I flipped through her pics again. Lo and behold, one of her pics showed her attractively modeling a bikini, but when I zoomed in, she had visible and severe cold sores all over her lips.

Look, I’m not an idiot. I know a significantly large, probably a majority, of people over 30 in the bowl are HSV-1 positive. But why choose a photo that confirms that?
