i know its another pop at single guys thread, and i know not all are the same.
But we have just had friend invites from two separate guys, no message or wink, even tho our profile says we arent really looking for men atm.
My question is, what do they hope to achieve other than make people cross??? |

"They are trying to be added to your friends list. 
I am on module two rocket science."
well what they want is to perv our private pics, understand that, but to send an invite without a message just results in them getting blocked, i cant see the gain |

Trying their hand/ chancers/ what have they got to lose.
All of the above is from the OH who says most men will do it and he thinks why not.....it may get them noticed.
For most women it gets their backs up , funny old world eh.
Anyway, we have 95 adds for friends and 76 winks waiting to be cleared......we ignore them and delete when I get round to it.
It's easy....two clicks and they are gone. |

"it doesnt wind us up just cant see what they have to gain."
You may look at their profiles, see something you like, add them to see their private gallery?
You add them, they get to perv your private pictures?
You add them, they get to see your facial pictures and THEN decide whether or not to message you.
etc.
etc.
I go through mine once a week.
No big deal
It's a function the site gives people. If you don't like it, ignore them...... or join another site.
Simple |

I don't think it is that simple! Yes we could just delete and block as we do, but the question was "What do they hope to gain?"
Well we all know what they hope to gain, but usually don't. What they do though is ruin it for the few genuine guys who actually have respect for peoples wishes.
What I can't understand even more than the mind of the rude single guys is why you feel the need to berate someone for asking a civil question in a civil manner! 
What do they hope to gain??? Perhaps others views on the subject in an equally civil tone?  |

Why?? But I try always to reply and say sorry not accepting we don't know you sorry...usually they blocks after that..laughs H. |

We don't play with single guys ever and the 1st line of our profile states as much. The 2nd line states that the only single guys we add as friends are those we have met at a party or social. Yet still we get at least 2 requests a day.
Profile also says that we only add people who we have spoken to in chat or messaged and there is no point adding us if you live the other side of the country as we are never going to meet. Yet still we get requests from people who live 100's of miles away or that we have had no contact with so this isn't only a single guy phenomenom.
Does it bother us? Nope we just delete and move on!

Here's how it works Chaps:
Step 1: Do a search for women between 18 and 99 within 500 miles.
Step 2: Wink them all
Step 3: Add them all as friends
Step 4: Two days later send them all an angry cut-and-paste email asking why they didn't wink or add you.
Step 5: Repeat Steps 1 to 4 at random over several weeks.
Step 6: Post angry rant about women on forum, make it especially offensive.
Step 7: Find yourself on more peoples Blocked list than Gary Glitter.
Step 8: Allow all these women to discover wonderful polite and attentive little me as you clear off to haunt somewhere else....

Does receiving a friends invite that can be easily deleted at the click of a button really make you angry?
I suppose that the people sending them send out loads in the hope that someone may accept them along the line,no other reason to so it.....unless it turns them on to know it has you feeling angry when you look at it

not everyone gets angry is why...some of us take them in the spirit in which they are intended.
I'm sure when a man is clicking 'send' it's not done with malice!
I have actually got chatting to some people that send a wink, I sometimes think it's a courteous thing to do and I appreciate that some folk just don't know how to send that initial letter...or they've read threads bemoaning single men who send unsolicited mail and think it a good alternative.
It takes but 1 second to click 'delete all'...not sure how such a swift action can invoke anger...in fact...you can totally ignore the winks and friend invites if you want...they're separate pages

I think it's a fair point and an issue that I've fallen foul of myself.
Sometimes, I'm too tired to write an email (I try and not copy and paste) and it just seems an easy option to send a friend invite to see if there is any interest there. Why else is that function provided? |

I'm just having a wild guess here, and it is a wild guess so apologies if I'm wrong but ..
Maybe they just want to look at your private pics ?
Just a guess mind you, I'm sure there's a much less sinister explanation, just I can't quite think what it may be at this moment in time.
Oh and before I go, why does it bother you, it obviously must or you'd not have posted this thread....

this type of question is asked daily ... why does no-one read the profile, why do i get mails from ppl that arent in my criteria, why do we get winks when we say no winks and at the end of the day WHY MOAN?? delete the mail, delete the winks and move on... it is not just single blokes that are guilty of this couples and single fems are too but at the end of the day if you dont like it DELETE!! |

I find this interesting. Isnt it like going into a pub and asking everyone to be your friend without chatting with them first. Its that a bit sad tho?(to me it seems lit) Surely its better to chat to the person and get to know them a touch and then ask to be a friend??
Same applies in my eyes to this site.

So what you are saying is that if the subject has come up before, look it uip on search and don't post again? The forum would be empty after a couple of weeks!
Also, the forum is here for everyone and if I want to post about something that has been discussed before, I can.. If you don't like it you don't have to read or answer it.
So if you don't like this question, move on to the next! |

Funny, I thought my answer was quite sensible ... you asked a question and I gave a reply, which in fairness is most likely to be the nearest answer to the truth.
Ok I was being sarcastic becuse in all honesty I suspect you already know what the answer was to your original question is, so I conclude that it must bother you in some way shape or form, otherwise you'd not have posted the thread.
You see it doesn't bother us that we get unsolicited friends requests, we just delete them as and when we remember to do so ... but if we were bothered, we most likely do as you have and start a thread about it |

But in a pub, you come face to face with the person asking to be your friend. You see them in the flesh.
On an internet site, you have to take the profile on trust, maybe get to know them a little before you get a facial picture and then think...... holy shit, I'm not going near that minger!
At the end of the day, I would rather see a facial picture immediately, to guage whether or not I am going to even enter into conversation with them about the possibility of meeting.
Many on here say that it's all about personality............
I say Bollox.
You have to have some kind of sexual attraction to the asthetics before personality even comes into it.
I will carry on asking for friends invites so I can see pictures, facial/body type/size etc before entering into chat. Otherwise I could be gassing away to someone I wouldn't go near, even with a 10ft barge pole.
Each to their own.
You know where the delete and block buttons are.......
USE THEM. |

i'm not sure whether you're for or against friends requests here!
..can i also say, I don't even ask to see a face pic unless i'm interested in meeting the person...as that's where the attraction lies with me, in the person...and the reason i ask for a pic is that i don't want to go meet someone if i don't know what they look like |

"No, they are probably saying they are bored of hearing it. As you so rightly say, they are allowed to say that on a public forum."
Yep! But then to OP also has the right to post this thread! And I also have to right to post my reply... Could go on all day!
Guess what I am really trying to say and TandS were just there when I saw this... (no slight intended)
We get preached about by some on here about tolerance. This site seems to tolerate those who IMHO bring the site into disrepute, such as those cheating on a partner, but we can't tolerate someone asking a simple question on the forum?

I'm for them.
And our profile states that anyone who gets in touch with us must send a facial picture and a cock picture when they message.
If we get in touch with someone, we will ask for a friends invite or, if I'm feeling very brave, will write a message and attach a picture.
But to be honest, we get loads of friends invites and the first thing I do is look at the pictures attached to the profile.
No pictures...... deleted
Don't like the look of their picture .... deleted
Small cock on picture...... deleted
I then go through the profile and see if they match what we are looking for.
If they don't ........ deleted.
If they do...... accept friends invite.
takes 2 mins to see their private gallery and if you don't like whats in there, 10 seconds to delete the friends link.
We also never keep friends who we have never met, unless we are forum buddies and will be meeting at a social in the future.
Like I said earlier, I tend to have a clear out once a week.

Mad your totally right on the internet it is a bit different. I dont bother asking for friend invites to see face pic to judge as you rightly say if I would be interested in getting to know them more as a face/body pic can easily be attatched to any initial message.
If I get an interesting message from a person that has clearly read my profile then am far more inclined to want to see a face pic.
If I get mail from someone that hasnt bothered to read my profile or made any effort to their profile...then I wont be interested in even seeing their face.
So for me personality does come very high up on my list. I wouldnt meet a man who had no personality and was boring to me if he was the most handsome looking sexy man. Did meet a very very sexy man in so many ways(he did love himself)and spent all the time talking about him. Needless to say we didnt click or have great fun and soon got bored with his way even though he is very good looking.
But yes,delete and block is the normal thing for me now,if not interested and dont want to be mailed again by them.
I am attracted to personality and looks together. |

You are lucky. I wish I could be like that sometimes.
For me, it's about whether I have a sexual attraction to them because we only do 1 off's.
In the house
Cor he's nice
10 min chat (he might get a coffee if I'm feeling generous)
Shag his brains out
Send him home (again with a coffee if I'm feeling extra nice).
I personally ( and this is the way we swing), don't want to shag them again, don't even particularly want to know their name, and don't want long drawn out conversations with them about politics or who's died this week in Eastenders.
We use single men, as much as they use women.
Therefore, for us, what they look like is as far as I go with making a decision on whether to meet.
Odd maybe, but we have a huge amount of friends, and we don't need any more. |

May I ask a question please?
I wonder how you feel about this "type of single man"?
I certainly would`nt dream of sending a friend request,without a previous message.But I wonder if I might appeal to ladies and /or some men!
I know you cant answer for everyone,as we are all different,thank God!
