We can’t always be on point - life dictates that the wonderful opportunity that you have presented, the meet you want or are looking for just falls in a day that doesn’t work.
So a wink is a yeah, a moment of desire, can we chat, or just plain and simple wow.
Don’t disrespect winks. |

"Are they being disrespected?
So many profiles say they ignore winks - I understand if they are getting 50 messages a day - it all takes time I suppose. "
So if someone sends me a wink and I look at their profile but they're not for me, am I being disrespectful? |

I thinks serve a purpose.
It's like, I know your getting 100 messages a day and I'm not gonna get a reply but here's a notice of my interest that doesn't waste my time writing a message that will be ignored. |

I like them. Though…
For me if I send a wink, I’ll always send a wee message too. Probably saying that I like the profile and that’s why I’d done it.
So it’s a wink and saying “hi”.
I send a message too as loads of folk don’t see the wink. I’ve read a lot of profiles that say that.
I’m the same in not seeing them, so that’s why I say on my profile, if you wink, just drop a message saying “hello”.

My comment was just really with peoples statement saying the ignore winks. Why not just ignore them - why the statement “we ignore winks”.
Negative statements on a profile reflect negatively about you.
It’s not a big thing just a thought. |

Why point out on your profile you won't send pictures of the lady without permission? Why not just not send them? It reflects negatively on you. |

Because its there profile and they put on it what they like. You or I or anyone else doesn't need to like or understand it. |

I tend to use Winks as like an ice-breaker. An easy way for shy folk like me to say Hiya or something else.
However like the FQ/Rules imply a non-response to a Wink should be taken as a "No thank you".
Personally I always reply to Winks, if the Winker's message filters allow me to.

What's even the point of a wink? Could mean anything to the person taking the fraction of a second to tap it (assuming it's even on purpose). I figure anyone genuinely interested will send an actual message so tend to ignore them, but on the ofchance someone's sitting there waiting for some kind of response to one I suppose it's maybe better to be clear that's not the best way of getting my attention, it's not necessarily 'being negative'. |

If you put that on your profile they may not send them. |

Girls get so many messages, I think a wink is a nice easy non-intrusive way of saying, 'Take a quick look at my pics, if I'm not for you don't wink back'
Never thought of it as disrespecting me, if I don't get a win or a message back, just I'm not what the person was looking for based on looks.... |

I agree with Hank handsome
A wink is a nice way to appreciate the person and hint interest - if they wink back or reply then it’s mutual. If not, it’s a not for me/then.
Would be good to have a chat response to updates as lots of people put up an update requiring a response but then moan about tons of mail/messages |
