When you were on as part of a couple did the female half shag very guy on the site or was she selective. Your a single guy now so you don't have the assistance of a female half to get you couples meets or even other single lady bi lady meets. It's all on you now dude. Not as easy as what you thought ehh ?.
The reality is you got to sell yourself now , good luck though. |

I'd change your profile picture for a start. The women you speak to arent gonna want to see your dick being sucked by another girl. A little hint....they wont want to see your dick at all just now. |

Totally agree. That would be a big turn off for me. |

Couples do not get as many messages as singles and there are 2 of you to respond instead of one. |

Profile picture now changed, I get that but it take less than a minute to say not interested. That's all I ask. Especially when we have exchanged messages the then get blanked is rather annoying. |

I used to reply to every message, but half the time it gets a response of “ah why not?” Or abuse or a “if you change your mind” so I stopped sometimes if it’s a very well constructed, read my profile (usually can tell because there is some mention of something on profile) put some thought into kind of introduction, then I’ll maybe reply even if it’s just to say thanks but no thanks. But I have to admit a lot of time I don’t. |

Exactly! If you reply, at least 75% seem to take that as an opportunity to try and change your mind. I’m the same as you, where if someone has read my profile, they will at least get thanks but no thanks message.
I don’t “like” not replying as it does seem to me, bad manners, but as I can’t be faffed with the ensuing messages (and some are downright mental when refused) so I just delete now

"Why am I having no sucsess on here not looking for anything drastic. I'm honest and respectful when I message folk. Any tips folks? "
You’ve had some good advice OP and been open to it so well done and good luck. I’d just like to underline what the ladies are saying to you in regard to reading profiles, it really will save you time and frustration if you make sure you fit what the person you mail is looking for. Secondly, very much agree with the ladies on a non response being a no thank you. Not only does the site stipulate you SHOULD take it as that, it could be full time job for females saying no thanks to messages and then the spin off responses generated. Try and understand that from the ladies point of view. I now have single guys blocked in part for that reason. Happing fabbing |

Thanks folks I do understand you ladies/couples must have a lot of D*icks who try to change your mind. I always say when sending a face pic if not interested no offence will be taken, just let me know and happy swinging. Thanks for the replys all advice taken on board. |

Hate to be pedantic (well not really lol) just to underline what you’re saying there “just let me know”. People are not obliged to answer you, nor is it bad manners, it’s what the site rules stipulate xxx |

"It's bad manners and outright rude imo. I never send face pics until I've had a decent conversation with someone. "
Would you prefer if people replied to say that they don't like your face so don't want to chat anymore? |

"I do, be nice to get a reply tho it's just ignorance "
No it isn't, as it clearly states in the FAQs.
A couple of reasons why people don't reply to messages are because they get so many that answering all would require a PA, or because after declining they then get repeatedly messaged asking why they're not interested. No one wants to open up a dialogue if they then need to add someone to the block list. |

I don’t think it’s bad manners not to reply.
Heck I don’t reply to every piece of junk mail that comes through the post....
So why reply to anyone who doesn’t interest me? |

Would you prefer if people replied to say that they don't like your face so don't want to chat anymore?" 100% would prefer I've said it to people myself and have no issue getting that in return. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. |

Your first posts were about initial messages, which was what I was replying to. You later commented about being blown off after talking to people.
I agree with that point, if you are having a dialogue with someone and are not interested in taking it further, you should say so. I have done that, a few times I've then been asked why I'm not interested. I've even had one guy try to throw his mrs under the bus by asking which one of them was putting me off (it was both of them), but I don't reply to those as I don't need to explain myself. |

There is really no advice folk can give as to why people stop conversing after a while. Maybe it wasn’t your pic that put them off, maybe it was something you said, maybe they had no intention of ever meeting, maybe the woman was really a bloke ... you will probably never know. There are lots of folk that do reply, there will no doubt be lots that are interested in meeting up ... these are the people to concentrate on. Good Luck x |

Perhaps you’ve not been on the receiving end of abusive messages after sending a ‘sorry not my type’ after being sent a face pic. All of a sudden the nice chat turns in to an abusive rant because you’ve turned someone down.
Can’t comment on your profile as it’s now hidden. |
