Dating. It's the pits.
I miss the days when you were in a pub and you'd catch someone's eye and chat. If you got that glint in your eye swap numbers and go from there.
Nowadays, meeting someone is so hard. Not just for me but other girls I know.
Online we're judged on how we look, how we write messages. If one thing is taken wrong, immediately move on to next.
It's a quandary. For want of trying still single. Fast losing hope. I imagine there'll be mixed response to this perfectly fine.
Goes back to hairy toe plucking. |

My dad was out with his girlfriend and her mother for New Year’s Eve. Caught my mums eye, ended up going home with her. Got engaged two months later, and were married by the August.

I agree it's definitely more difficult than years ago to meet the old fashioned way  |

Yup. I honestly don't bother with dating sites anymore. Lots of guys on dating sites are only looking for a quick fix, at least on here I can be open about my sexuality. I think wherever/however you meet there's so much pot luck in finding someone on your wavelength at the same time in their lives. Don't give up hope though! |

I miss the days of going out, copping off, shagging them senseless and if you liked them meeting up for dwinks on a Sunday night. Usually non alcoholic drinks as you were skint unless they were paying. Eventually you might exchange numbers... The house phone of course.. Ahhh happy days.  |

Try it from my point of view, I'm 44, got dropped years ago by mates as they got hooked up with partners. So no longer an avenue of going out on a Saturday night for a girly night, no other avenue or trying to engage interest, what else do I try?
Internet is shite, as I no longer want to be a hook up! |

As a younger man everyone is on the dating sites etc.
I fortunately caught the eye of my flame at work and we did the whole getting to know eachother dating phase. So much fun rarther than disscusing shit online planning etc.
The random days out are the best.  |

From my point of view I like this life style. People I have met though internet dating have been quite offended by swinging or any form of ethical none monogamy |

I've never done online dating as it there was hardly the internet when I was single, but other than the odd success story I'm glad I missed it.
There's a man at work that uses it and quite successful, but he's constantly worried about the women he might be missing out on by dating someone for too long, always hoping someone better is round the corner. And as for female's experiences? It's all about sex and lies to try and get some one into bed, oh and separated men that still live with the wife. Should I ever find myself single again, I'll be giving it a wide berth.

Plenty of different ways to swing. I've been on the scene about 3yrs now, and in that time developed close and cherished friendships, and had two relationships. It's not all about NSA. My ideal would be a fulfilling relationship where swinging was an added extra in an already happy partnership. So makes far more sense to look on here. |

The old way can still be the current way.
People have just gotten lazy I think. Having the internet constantly to hand and various dating/hook-up apps, lots of people now think it’s the easiest way to meet someone.
I just lurk in the biscuit aisle of supermarkets and smile and passing victims  |

I'm on both. But. To answer you. A lot on here are on other dating sites. There's a double standard which I've heard from other females on here and I've had it said to me lately. Some men won't date women on here.
Not to mention. I'm here to fulfill my bi needs. I date men for company etc. It's not madness. Open your mind a little. |

I never said I was looking for lpve here. You're jumping to conclusions. But people do find love here. As an example. Tatts and titts on my veris. Nice couple, met as shingles. Seen other threads where people met here, engaged now. Because it's not for you doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Again. Open your mind. |

Yeah I would love to find someone to marry and have children with, and practice ethical none monogamy - whether that be swinging or poly or both or something else. |

My friend got berated from her parents for being single 5 years.
We're out there trying. I mean if you can do it we have. Speed dating, online dating, nights out, travelling, getting to themed days. As single people we've tried it all. X

I do and in the meantime I'm here to fulfill my desires til I find someone. I don't search here for a partner. But if someone matches it's not out of the question. The title isn't about being single on fab. And if you're reading replies, I'm not the only one here with these thoughts. |

Sadly even the old way is difficult...the other night in a bar almost every person was constantly checking their phones...even when sat with others...the art of conversing is dead I feel...easier to hide behind a screen...I for one love the thrill of meeting new people but not everyone feels the same. |

Ps most people that meet on here and then become a couple (loved up) all take a significant break from swinging, to establish a foundation to their relationship. And thats a FACT!!!
All i was saying is if you (dont want to be single anymore) want a loving relationship, then maybe it would be better to join a dating site, where it may not be preconceived as a nsa meet |

I'm wondering who you awesome two are. My ex wouldn't entertain swinging but god bless your reason and knowledge. If it was this easy would there be so many people saying the same. I'm baffled your so closed minded but having said that a few times and the responses you give. Your the most closed minded people I know. There's nothing normal about people. Your views are not everyone's. But I've entertained your narrow mindedness enough. You can't educate a closed mind. |

If you met someone in a pub like the old way and we're honest and told then you'd had numerous partners on here ..which applies to males and females then it might be a non starter .
So what do you do .keep it quiet ? |

Nothing in my profile suggests nsa. But again. Closed mind. Is it a fact. Where are your facts from. Please supply this information. These are your THOUGHTS if you have no proof.
Are you even reading other replies or just hounding me particularly. And your FACT is wrong. Some couple's get together here and still swing. Lord.

I’m currently taking a break as I’ve met someone through this site and we want some time together as a couple before re introducing swinging
It’s by far the best relationship so far Because my desire for wanting this lifestyle to be a part of the relationship as been upfront from the start there’s been no awkward conversations to have about it, no risk of judgement or disgust for wanting it because “it’s not normal”
I was on this site because it’s the type of relationship I wanted and I’ve found it |

I’m a firm believer in things happening when you least expect it. If you ask others how they’ve met their partner, no two answers are the same. You need to get out there, as the saying goes - if you do as you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always got.

"Try it from my point of view, I'm 44, got dropped years ago by mates as they got hooked up with partners. So no longer an avenue of going out on a Saturday night for a girly night, no other avenue or trying to engage interest, what else do I try?
Internet is shite, as I no longer want to be a hook up!"
I agree with everything you say... It's hard to create opportunities to meet traditionally.
Sick of being single a bit .... |

Im not really sure where I would begin to look if I was a single. I am a big believer in 'real life' situations though and would just put myself in places where others were, hobbies/clubs/nightclasses. Failing that I'd eye up all the single dads in the school playground,of which I'm sure there must be plenty. When all that failed I'd come back on here |

"Dating. It's the pits.
I miss the days when you were in a pub and you'd catch someone's eye and chat. If you got that glint in your eye swap numbers and go from there.
Nowadays, meeting someone is so hard. Not just for me but other girls I know.
Online we're judged on how we look, how we write messages. If one thing is taken wrong, immediately move on to next.
It's a quandary. For want of trying still single. Fast losing hope. I imagine there'll be mixed response to this perfectly fine.
Goes back to hairy toe plucking. "
Totally agree xx |

I blame the expectation nowadays that everyone gets what they want handed to them on a plate
Where’s the fun in that?!?
I much prefer the excitement, the rejection and the reward from the old ways

Nottingham/and everywhere my location says i am ;) |
A wise “owd bird” ( me ma ) said don’t look for it.. It will find you when it’s ready, just enjoy the inbetween. So I do 
Being honest, I run a mile when I see on a profile ( dating site ) looking for relationship. sounds shallow right? Not at all, who wants to know intention? Not me.
What happens happens, but I learnt a long time ago a significant other can’t make us happy if we aren’t happy ourselves. |

From a guy's point of view, meeting a girl in a pub/club & then getting invited back to her place is now a dangerous proposition, - not like the good old days..

I'd say a mixture of both would be good. So many off my old haunts have gone out of business these days. Nothing quiet like a chin wag over a drink or two. |
