"Older lads too " Just lads in general then? | |||

"Older lads too Just lads in general then?" So I hear | |||
"I just don't get why would 18yr old come on swingers site. OP?" Why not? High sex drive’s looking to be fulfilled..maybe I had high expectations of meeting women on here | |||
| |||
"You're in an age group that is quite niche. Many people won't look twice due to having children a similar age or older, and it feels "wrong" Conversation with a youngster can often give a face palm to the older person, so meeting at a cougars and cubs night at a club is probably the best bet. " If people spoke to me it would help They may decide I’m 18 going on 30! | |||

It wouldn't help tho, I have a child older than you and no amount of speaking to you would make me change my mind about wanting to fuck. | |||

"You also need to consider what's happening in the world at the moment. This isn't just an age thing as chaps of differing age ranges have asked the question "why is nobody replying?" or similar. Well, because people aren't in much of a sexual headspace per se. People are losing jobs, loved ones, businesses and homes. Others are having to choose between heating and food. Some are finding themselves unable to care for pets and are giving them up. The world is brutal, truly brutal for some at the moment and the knock on effect of that devastation is being felt across the land. It will and does have an impact on the kind of chats you want to have and many many people have lost their sex drive. It may not take an adult brain to realise that, but it does take an adult attitude." I don’t buy into that I’m afraid. If they have popped onto the site, read the message etc then they are in the headspace for something. If they were not in the headspace they I don’t think they would be in at all or reading messages or perhaps even replying to say “not now” thanks. But I could be wrong.. But to say I don’t understand because I don’t have an “adult brain or adult attitude” is slightly insulting to all younger people. | |||
"You're only as old as the woman you're feeling, OP! (Although a bit 'too young for me' by about..... 20 years!) " Let you off | |||
"I just don't get why would 18yr old come on swingers site. OP?" To have sex maybe? | |||

"Completely disagree with you OP. Prior to first lock down we were seeking two bi guys for a mmmf meet. The trouble was most of them (not all) we contacted turned out to be time wasting idiots. A lot had the attitude "I'm special, you'll send pictures I request and pay for the hotel" One even expected us to pay his train fare! So the end result was we gave up trying to organise it due to some poor attitudes. There lies your problem I suspect. The many idiots spoiling it for the few genuine guys out there. I (James) wish you luck though OP. " Yes, as I’m sure there are. However, not all younger men are the same and not all these idiots should ruin it for the best of us. Also, I should think that “older” men stand people up to from time to time.. | |||
"To me an 18yr old is a child. " Yes, been surprised to watch my views on 25yr olds, and even 30s as really young. Not even for swinging but at least that they'd probably think we've over the hill! | |||

"Completely disagree with you OP. Prior to first lock down we were seeking two bi guys for a mmmf meet. The trouble was most of them (not all) we contacted turned out to be time wasting idiots.

So the end result was we gave up trying to organise it due to some poor attitudes. There lies your problem I suspect. The many idiots spoiling it for the few genuine guys out there. I (James) wish you luck though OP. Yes, as I’m sure there are. However, not all younger men are the same and not all these idiots should ruin it for the best of us. Also, I should think that “older” men stand people up to from time to time.." At no time did I say all younger men. I was very careful as I know how these threads can turn nasty very quickly. Did you notice the brackets (not all), did you notice "some" poor attitudes, did you notice "many idiots spoiling it for the few genuine guys"? Yes older guys can stand people up from time to time, which is why we research people's verifications. Older guys will generally (not always) have verifications. I neglected to say in my previous post that the meet we were trying to set up was for a cougar session for Jessica so we were looking for two guys under 28. | |||
"To me an 18yr old is a child. " This We have 2 sons slightly older and we also have a older daughter and in our experience our sons are a lot more immature than our daughter .When our sons were 18 they were more like 15 year olds in the head . | |||

Yes I am aware, it was me who referred to “all” younger men not being idiots. But I accept your point. Probably my bad phrasing! I still stick to the general point I was making through..however badly I worded it. | |||
"Although we are ten to a dozen on here, I find we are becoming increasingly less popular now... agree?" Agree. More like twenty to a dozen now, so the figures and odds probably make you less popular now. Especially seeing that lots of guys use the scattergun approach of contact without respecting profiles. | |||

"Everyone on this thread was 18 once, all started on this site for the first time once, all posted on the forum for the first time once, all received there first knock back, negative comment, rude comment, positive comment, meet. Whatever. Surely you can all remember what that feels like. So when you were 18 and someone double your age (sorry princess I haven’t checked your age) says you don’t have an adult brain and you don’t understand the pandemic problems. Just remember being 18 and how that would feel. " I do remember being 18, I know how it would feel, and I don't see how it changes anything. | |||

"Then I take both of your points of view and I’ll move on. Thank you. That is not being childish (although I will probably be called that no doubt) I just don’t think we are going to see eye to eye. Like I said, I’m not forcing my views on anyone. I actually agreed with you on reasons as to why people were on here. I just didn’t appreciate the comments about not understanding the pandemic etc. But I wish you all the best x" That's fair enough. You probably don't understand the pandemic in a way that someone older does - and that's not a criticism, I don't understand it how an 18 year old or a 78 year old would. Take the advice. It's good advice. | |||

But thanks for your advice. | |||

". I don’t buy into that I’m afraid. If they have popped onto the site, read the message etc then they are in the headspace for something. If they were not in the headspace they I don’t think they would be in at all or reading messages or perhaps even replying to say “not now” thanks. But I could be wrong." Some people are only here for the forums or to chat to their friends at the moment. Just because people are online does not mean they are looking for new conversations or people to have sex with. I'm here for the forum mainly at the moment and my friends, I ignore my inbox, turn it off or hide my profile. I have no interest in new conversations right now. | |||
"I wish this site was around when I was 18 - but the Internet wasn't invented then " Lol | |||
"Everyone on this thread was 18 once, all started on this site for the first time once, all posted on the forum for the first time once, all received there first knock back, negative comment, rude comment, positive comment, meet. Whatever. Surely you can all remember what that feels like. So when you were 18 and someone double your age (sorry princess I haven’t checked your age) says you don’t have an adult brain and you don’t understand the pandemic problems. Just remember being 18 and how that would feel. " Yes we were all 18 once, but we never felt the need to join this lifestyle to find a sex life, at 18 we were all exploring the face to face way. At 18 you think you are being insulted by those comments, when you are older you will realise that the comments were absolutely spot on. | |||
"The thought of me being on a site like this at 18 chills me to my core. Not all 18 year olds. Me. I didn't have the life experience, and yeah I thought I was mature. So mature. I knew everything, man. Some 18 year olds may be different, I'm not extrapolating beyond myself. Men under 25 or 30 always struggle on here, OP, although no man finds it easy." Well said!! | |||

"Completely disagree with you OP. Prior to first lock down we were seeking two bi guys for a mmmf meet. The trouble was most of them (not all) we contacted turned out to be time wasting idiots. A lot had the attitude "I'm special, you'll send pictures I request and pay for the hotel" One even expected us to pay his train fare! So the end result was we gave up trying to organise it due to some poor attitudes. There lies your problem I suspect. The many idiots spoiling it for the few genuine guys out there. I (James) wish you luck though OP. " This why your always better off visiting a club” when Bojo deems it safe “ if there not willing to visit a club there not a swinger x | |||
"Although we are ten to a dozen on here, I find we are becoming increasingly less popular now... agree?" Because there is alot of us (well I'm a bit older than you) ladies can have there pick of Calvin Klein models if they so wish and the rest ( me included) get ignored | |||

Yeah I hadn't even looked - guys with good profiles get better luck. | |||

"Another angle. How many clubs and organised social events have you been to?" Good question. Obviously prior to lockdown | |||

"I’m a young lad (27) and I personally joined the site to meet with an older woman as this was one of my fantasies. I’m actually really shy so a club really does intrigue me, but I’m petrified about going along to one! Not sure if anyone else is in the same boat?" I was shitting bricks before I went to my first club. I went on my own midweek hoping I wasn't gonna get overwhelmed. I don't go all the time, far from it (pre-covid of course) but I do go to events that interest me. If I was a young man wanting to meet older women, I'd get my arse to a cougars and cubs night. You know then that the chances of connecting with others are higher than if you went to a Xmas party for example. It does take patience, it does take time to find people who fit your bill and you fit theirs. But those chances can be improved dramatically by making effort in the areas that will reap the most reward. Even if there are no shenanigans on the night, it *should* be a confidence boost, get ya mingling and talking to people. A few veris and others will see that "oh, this dude makes an effort and doesn't rely on fab alone" I for one prefer to get a feel for people in person so clubs are good for me in that respect. Messaging, well, people can say anything whereas in person they give off an aura, a vibe, and that tells me more about them than words do. | |||

"Thanks Peach! I just get nervous that someone I know may see me there. I’m shy! need to get a grip, I know!" Totally, totally normal. I was bricking it when I first went to a club. | |||
"Thanks Peach! I just get nervous that someone I know may see me there. I’m shy! need to get a grip, I know!" Okay, so... what's the worst case scenario? There are risks everywhere in the scene. Liars, manipulators, those who prey on the vulnerable plus a whole host more. You're safer in a club or at a social than randoms via messaging | |||

"I just don’t want my personal and private life to crossover. Meeting via fab at least gives you some security that there’s no existing link between you! " You've got no idea they are who they say they are on Fab. Could turn out to be Beryl from HR when you both turn up. | |||

Most people in clubs don't want it known in their vanilla lives that they go, either... | |||

I've had people tell me, I know your mate XYZ. Clearly someone had shown my picture to someone I know. Not right but you have to be prepared for it happening. When I was part of a couple we got a message from someone, was a bloke my ex worked with. | |||
