OP. I'd lose the negativity of being rejected for the bad boys. And maybe cut out the spiel about neglecting you're own pleasure. It rings a bit false. If you are into something sub, I'd call it straight out.

That said, you have a style. That's kinda cool. It may not float all boats but you're gonna stand out a more than others. And when someone does like your prose, you'll be two steps further on than most.

Good luck cowboy

Have a gander at the OPs profile. Messages are just part of the whole package you need to be on point with. Not the silver bullet.

Basically there's too many blokes not enough women, and no matter how good your profile is, nothing's going to change that...

This "issue" seems to be a rather popular one for starting threads about. It's not really an issue in a general sense as it is maybe about the approach you are taking. Always the advice is to get involved in the community, let people get to know you and see What you are about. Alas, most who receive that advice, don't tend to follow it.

Good luck!

A polite message won't cut it if a face pic looks like the guy is going to murder you

"Basically there's too many blokes not enough women, and no matter how good your profile is, nothing's going to change that..."

That is an over trawled excuse for those that just don't get what this site/lifestyle, for most is about. Of the 100's of messages we get 99% wreak of CBA and didn't read the profile. Of the remaining 1% there has to be an attraction.

What we do (and most others from our experience) is:-

We read their profile to see:-

a) if they are what we are looking for.

b) if there is anything that makes them stand out.

If not the message or the pics (if contained) are going to have to be pretty special.

Why?

Before ignoring and deleting the message our assumption is that the same/similar message was sent to every profile within a 50 mile radius at least, this implies the "any port in a storm mentality" unless something within tells us differently. This mentality is not what this lifestyle is about for us at least, again those we've spoken to seem to agree also.

So to the above, if men outnumber women by 100-1 here, for those that get it the odds are good because the other 99 tell themselves the same/similar rubbish to what you wrote to justify the scattergun approach.

So to the OP, follow the other advice here, your profile does stand out from the crowd, if the advice is followed and you put as much thought into your messages eventually you should reach someone who's interest you'll peak.

So people know what you're like if you read a profile, you never truly know what someone's like unless you meet them, but of course many people are never given the chance to meet because they don't look right, don't write a good profile etc. Basically women can be extremely picky not just on this site but on just about all internet dating / sex sites because there's far more men available than women. And I don't send the same message to every profile either, I always tailor it to the person I'm sending to. Oh and don't forget we're all human and don't deserve to be treated like something nasty you've found on the bottom of your shoe. This, of course applies to all dating / sex sites.

If they are abusive report them.

People usually need some sort of attraction even in person. Everyone can be picky. Doesn't matter if there's 20 million men offering to fuck me - if I don't fancy any of them I won't be fucking them.

Think of this as a job interview. If you send a half arsed cv you would never get an interview even if you have the skills. That's not someone's fault for not talking a punt. And no matter how great you think your cv is, if it's not matched to what someone is looking for you won't get an interview. But you don't really know what the job involves. You just have an idea. Best you can do is send a great cv. Scrub up well if you do get a chance. And keep on plugging.

Trust me this doesn't have a great success rate, I'm very polite in my messages and generally best response is a polite no thanks... it's hard staying positive all the time, I find some good music helps lift your mood and then your confidence and positivity follow!

Mind you if you were bi then you would find things alot easier lol.

One tip though...never let it get to you. You will send many many messages to women and they hardly ever respond. But the after 100 failed messages you might get one back.

Currently women have the power of choice and they decide who and when they sleep with. However the tide is slowly turning. Men are waking up to this and in time women will be begging us to come back. It might take another 40 odd years but it is happening. More and more men are either saying no or turning gay etc etc. I for one am one of those guys. I simply don't bother playing the game anymore. I tend to go for guys or couples both of which are way more fun than a single woman.
