Well really..it depends how quickly you ask the question doesn't it?.. 
See..
If you don't ask the question you won't get an answer UNTIL you ask that question.
Unless it's already written on their profile. |

I mean when they are playing as a single guy and you get a feeling they are lying and then they admit it...I've talked to a guy and in his second sentence he told me he was married...honesty is better... |

I agree with honesty policy, if they are married they should let you know from outset so you can make informed decision whether to continue chatting or not |

"This is one of the reasons I have it on my profile...saves me wasting my time and theirs. "
 I agree that's it best people can make informed choices by having the facts to hand. If they're ok with it cool, if not they know to move on. |

I usually ask the question in the second message. Some still don't give you the truthful answer until the third meet though.

I get that a lot too despite the first sentence of my profile explaining I don't meet married/attached guys so if its not clear on their profile it kind of wastes both our time. |

I had one tell me he was a widower. It wasn't amusing when she came back to life after apparently being dead for a decade.

"What have I missed?
"
Nothing new. The attached should declare it.
I understand people not putting it on their profile. I don't judge what brings married people here as I'm not in their relationship. (Plus, I chat to lots of married people via the forum and have met some socially and if their partner doesn't know they are on here it probably feels as bad for that person as finding out they are having sex). However, when asked I think a straight answer should be given so that the other person can make an informed choice.

"What have I missed?
jumps up n down..
hellooooo
yooo hooooo
 "
Will you stop jumping and just give me that kiss please?!
But, on a serious note. As you guys have already mentioned. If you don't ask, you won't know. If the alarm bells don't ring in your head and you have nothing to expect - i'd put that down to life experiences.
I'm 25 and the amount of things i've seen people do and get away with throughout the years i've been on here are surreal. Especially, the women that fall for it head over heels. Worries me sometimes.
May be quite a naive thing to say. But, should be us young ones who are making these sort of mistakes and not those you'd expect not to.

It always surprises me how many handsome, charming, professional, ripped and hung bachelors of an age when they'd be prime husband or at least boyfriend material are on here... all these absolutely amazing singletons! You ladies really are so lucky ...

I've only met one guy for whom my marital status was a problem. There was one who took flight as soon as I told him I was married, at the initial messaging stage, blocked and reported me. Tsk. |

Despite having it clearly on my profile that I don't meet married or attached guys, I still get them messaging and trying their luck and lying about it, also the guys that claim to be in couples that arn't,
Having been on the receiving end of threatening phone calls and texts from outraged wives and girlfriends, maybe these guys should consider how it affects everyone else and why we make these conditions in the first place before they go ahead and lie anyway, most give themselves away very quickly by having limited meeting times etc ,having said all that, it just comes with the territory on these kind of sites and if their not considering their partners why would they give a flying fuck about a sneaky shag on the side? |

I was in a relationship with a woman up until 2 years ago, even though she didn't want to be on here she knew I was and even took some of ma pics. Anyone that I met was fully aware of this, although not everyone asked or seemed remotely bothered to be honest.
I'm young, free and single now btw 
Well, free & single anyway |

I know attached people who are here with permission/consent but others find it difficult to believe that. It's tricky.

Yeah, I suppose that's why so many feel the need to deceive others in order to get a meet. I'd sooner go without if that was the case. |

I'm here with consent......she's on here too and will probably read this in the morning (morning you)
She has her own account for her thing, I have this for my thing, and we have a couples account for our things 
I'd find it a bit odd were she not on here though....I'd feel silly explaining that I was attatched but had permission without having the ability to point her out to people and to say 'if you want to check....go ask her'
I can see why some folk would take the attatched but with permission thing with a pinch of salt..... |

shouldnt need to ask, this is a swingers site, information like that should be openly on the profile to allow peopleto make an informed choice, not saying anything or lying to drag people into a web of lies unwittingly is wrong. |

I used to have it on my profile but copped abuse for it. There's some right judgemental wankers on here. So now if I get messaged I tell them in my first reply. |

Its interesting; the demand for openness and honesty in what is (essentially) a lifestyle choice with its roots in anonymity and secrecy from general society, which is vilified and discouraged by much of mainstream media.
The demands of honesty in an environment where we are repeatedly told we are entitled to nothing. |

Ideally it would be nice to have it on a persons profile as I tend to make first contact a lot although I understand why some don't put it however, as its clear I'm not interested in married/attached guys on my profile, it would be nice for guys that don't have it to say as soon as I message. A couple of times this hasn't happened and one guy I spent a week messaging on here then texting to arrange a meet only to be told the day before the meet he was married. Quite frustrating and time wasted. |

I get nasty messages about it too. I'd still rather hit delete and block than waste my time putting effort into messaging someone who then isn't going to want to meet when they find out. |

I agree. As I have stated, I chat to married people on the forum all the time - most of us do - so I won't be hypocritical and condemn for being here. I just ask that a straight question asked is answered in a straight way.

Being as I reply to every message, and tell them I'm not single in my first (sometimes only reply) that's not an issue for me. |

I used to have:
'I'm married, my wife knows I do this, but doesn't play'
on my profile and all I got was speculative messages asking would she be there, would she change her mind if she saw their pics, would she do their make up (she doesn't do mine so why should she do theirs?), would she like to watch and so on. Hence I took it off.
How it works for us is that we live very separate lives. I have this, which she knows about, if not all the details of where I am on a given night. She has a boyfriend she sees, who is a jolly nice chap.
I could put all of that on my profile, but I'm thinking of changing back to Bullseye and it doesn't read right in the voice of Tony Green. |

For everything Lickerty? We used to have different names when we first started (until I couldn't figure out why our first meet was calling me Susan)
Although now we don't and any questions we don't want to answer we just say so, but as it is just NSA for us, we don't know or care if people are telling us their fantasy life instead of their real one. We might not believe them but I doubt if it is a rare thing on here. |

I/we always ask the question whether their profile says it or not. A busy unpredictable work life here means we need to know if our calendars will match with 'them'and their 'wives/girlfriends'-normally it doesn't!. We find the single guys a little more flexible with their time ? |

I'd rather know. I'm not concerned about real names but as I hope to meet one to one meets more than once then being clear on the potential traps is helpful.

Agree i always ask but had an experience where i met someone a few times before finding out he lied .If people are honest you then get the choice to meet knowing the facts. |

Yeah we would rather know too, but we doubt if we have been told the truth about it everytime the question is asked. Like someone else said, it is down to us to figure out if they are telling the truth or not as they can easily say " no" when you ask them are you married. |

Just my opinion based on how I treat this -
If I asked a guy if he were single, he could still lie lol.
I respect the guys who state they are married or have a partner, they won't be for me, but fair play for their honesty.. a lot of people will play with them
I am firmly in the camp of 'what I don't know wont hurt me', so as long as I never know (if they are attached and lying) then I will play if we click. If I later find out they have been lying, then it would be a 'cheers and thanks for the laughs, cya' from me
I'm here for my own enjoyment, not to nanny and complain about how others run their life and profile |
