we have been let down by a guy we we were meant to meet up with , all the planning and getting baby sitters etc etc and he goes and deletes his profile two hours before we were meant to meet with him would any one have any suggestions on how to prevent this from happening again or ways off knowing if a person is a 100 per cent or not ? |

Unfortunately apart from the usual as in meet for a coffee first informally shows the guys willing to actually show up and gives you a better idea of what he's like. Make sure he's verified. It's never going to be 100% but don't know if anything is. |

Its a very privileged place for a guy to be trusted and invited to meet a couple. Unfortunately, experiences like you have had can be common, as some guys only live in fantasy land. Its vital that the guy is verified, also, I would suggest speaking on phone first, think that way your instincts would know if it is genuine or not. |

I suppose there is never a 100% gaurentee. Certainly chat on phone and after that it's gut instincts. As with 'ordinary' life with a date. Always that element of risk. I also think that people on here like the idea of trying things but bottle it when the time comes. |

Sorry to hear you were let down. I think there some married guys on here for kicks and can not follow through because they can not get away. If you don't already know and trust somebody I think a coffee meet first is best. As for only meeting verified people I think it's a bit unfair as you have to meet someone to get verified. Otherwise your in a catch 22 situation and never get off the ground.
Happy swinging everybody. Roll on limerick Saturday night. |

"And by verified they mean u can see a cpl of veries
Hidden verie cud b fake and foto verie just proves he has a head"
Sorry to hear you were let down.
My verifications are hidden because I didn't want the details shared. So, not sure that's a solution! |

Sorry to hear you were down it must be very frustrating after all the planning expense etc, very few if us are lucky enough to have the chance to play with a couple and obviously no shows only lessen the chances of single guys like myself getting the chance to meet with ladies/couples |

sorry to hear ye got stung like that guys.
Unfortunately it happens and more often than we'd like.
I'm not a big believer in relying solely on verifies as these can be faked plus it discriminates newbies.
I like the idea of making contact by phone before hand (can't remember who mentioned it in a previous post)
Meeting ppl thro Meet&Greet nights also gives you the chance to suss a potential playmate out.
Coffee meets are good too but not everyone lives close by so that's not always possible
anyways, just my 2 cents
