Verifications

By *rA_123 OP Man over a year ago

Blackburn

How are you expected to get verified if most people will only meet/talk too verified people??

I have had conversations with quite a few women and I've made it clear that I'm happy to meet for a social, in a public place without the expectation of anything further happening!!!

Running out of ideas now!!!

I've not seen any organised social meets in my area

And my phone won't allow me to can on here either. Clubs interest me but still a bit shy to just turn up to one on my own for the first time

Amour in Manchester has a social on a Sunday. Chorley on a Thurs. You have to make an effort be that travel outside your own town, go to a social by yourself. Swinging won't just come to you. YOU have to make the effort or you will just turn into another whiny guy.

You don't need much confidence to type a social meet request up for a social in a pub on a Saturday night in October. Choose a pub and a time and boom. Job done.

Just looked at the meets section, several socials advertised in Preston Bolton, Blackpool and other places in the coming weeks.

Or would you prefer everyone knocking on your door with gilt edged invites?

OP it does come across as if you are dismissing the advice. Might be worth considering that you are asking for advice as an unverified male and those giving it are in the main well verified and have been on the scene for some time. There are only so many ways to make swinging work as a single male. The answers on this thread are pretty standard and maybe you need to look at changing your situation to meet the suggested solutions

I think people have been very helpful on here to be honest. At least 3 options were given yet each one has been poopooed by the op. It certainly does seem like the.only answer he wanted is people change their minds and meet un verified people.

If people take time to give what they see as helpful advice, they don't like to see it thrown back at them by what could be perceived to be (emphasis on perceived) whining lazy newbie that thinks it will all be handed to them on a plate.

I have found several socials close enough for you to visit, why couldn't you have done that instead of moaning?

The guy isn't keen on a social so stop trying to force him that way! People have a right to choose not do do what they are told to on here so why keep pushing the point over and over it is starting to look like another bullying thread. It only takes one person to suggest something not everyone and definitely not to go over and over down the same path!

Use the green arrow its pretty evident a social is not his first choice. I wasn't on about you its the ones who always cum the you must follow advice brigade there is a difference between suggestions and browbeating the single male which the forums are getting a reputation for.

Perhaps several people suggested the same thing as it is a quick way to get verified but then the same advice was given 7 weeks ago when th OP asked the same question.

OP don't get hung up on verifications they don't actually improve your meet prospects. Concentrate on social skills to make your messages interesting and get conversations rolling. Join in here on the forums or in chat rooms. Oh and check out some of the many socials happening in the north west, I notice from you previous thread that discretion is a must have thing for you, so nearby towns would probably suit you.

He actually said there were no socials nearby when in fact there are several.

There are many people in the world that ask questions, don't like the answers so ask the questions over and over again in the hope that the answer will miraculously change for them.

The OP comes across as one of these people.

No you don't like the truth being pointed out you like to pick on bey you dislike how you appear being pointed out which is typical of a person who bullies.

“Maybe you need to look further the the end of the street you live in.”

“Or would you prefer everyone knocking on your door with gilt edged invites?”

“why couldn't you have done that instead of moaning”

Sarcastic remarks like this are only put up by people who are trying to look big by putting others down and its pretty sad.

If I wanted your opinion I would have asked for it, I didn't.

If the OP hadn't discounted everyone's advice out of hand and sprouted codswallop about there being no socials nearby when there clearly are, he may not have got the sarcastic comments that he did. It's not the first time he has asked the question and not the first time he has been given advice. Most of which has been repeated by several posters over different threads.

Everyone has the right to their own opinion, even you. But I for one am not interested in it or your opinions of me or any other member of this site.

That goes for everyone else too. There are too many diverse personalities in this world for everyone to get along and I for one ain't interested in trying.

You don't like what I have to say? Fine, I don't have a problem with that and as I have already said, I don't care either.

At this point I would normally add have a nice day, purely for sarcastic reasons but today I won't because I don't have to.

What point are you trying to prove?

I can see the guy asked for advice I can see people have given it. In all honesty reading the thread the sarcastic element hasn't helped can I ask what the reason an intention for adding it was as like others have said it doesn't convey as friendly to a relative new poster.

To the OP....some advice was given, if you don't like that advice you don't have to take it.

If you want more intimate socials then that is up to you, not everyone can walk into a social or club on their ow....maybe get chatting to people who use socials or clubs and see if they mind you going in with them? Or use the forum and chat rooms as a way of getting yourself noticed.

Either way, welcome to the forum and good luck.

If people are going to post, can you remember that if a subject pisses you off...ie someone asking for advice, then ignore the thread and let the people who know all advice won't be taken to post instead.
