Not expecting miracles just some replies would be nice!.and no need to be sarcastic either.did i mention paying?no,so why you should feel the need to mention it baffles me?.i just think that with soooo many profiles asking for more than a "fancy a fuck" message,that when you reply decently the least you could do is reply with a quick no thanks.to be honest i was looking for advice id rather you didnt waste my time with comments like that.cheers  |

Keep at it mate, it's very difficult at first but you will get results if you persevere, take on board the positive advice and ignore the negative, good luck  |

While I appreciate the attempt at humour in your profile, for me, the lack of punctuation and spelling outweigh everything else.
You can't accommodate, so at your age, rightly or wrongly, people will assume you are married, and will choose not to be involved with someone cheating.
Just stick at it, it takes time, effort and patience for single men on here. Keep at it, you'll get there eventually.

I've been on this profile for over a year (on and off due to relationships etc), and only managed to set up one "last minute" meet with a couple... I drove 45mins to there home, and no one answered the door! I think they'd been drinking and fallen asleep or something. Now that was annoying  |

Your pics are in private?
Not going to help! This is the internet - where visual images and the written word are all you have to attract someone's attention.
Having no public images will usually mean people pass you by in favour of those they can see and establish at least some element of attraction! |

Therre is nothing appealing about your profile. The tag line would put us off. The profile is one dimensional, crude, dull, poorly written and not particularly funny. The combination of age, not being able to accomodate, no face pic and a status looking for outdoor fun screams cheat. Telling people how to use the site and expecting replies is disrespectful and naive.
Your profile is your shop window so ask yourself would you reply to it?

My advice is to unblock men from messaging you as one might have invited you to join him (on here as single) and his female fuckbuddy and you will have missed the chance. Get some photos up and sort your capitals and spelling etc and lose the moany bit at the end of your profile. The reference to paying was your gold membership. Put more in your profile about what you CAN offer rather than what you can't, ie. Positive spin. Look at all the other thread help advice etc threads, chat in the chatroom and look out for social meets in the meets section and go to a club.
I managed to type all that in one breathe. Fast typing eh? BOOM! |

"telling people how to use the site?.don't know what you mean."
You tell people that they should reply to your messages and that they are rude if they don't. It's up to them whether they reply and it's not rude not too. |

"thanks for that great advice "
I'd pass you by immediately because of the lack of pics hun.
Also when I read your profile it reads like you are putting yourself down. Whilst i'd much rather that then someone droning on about ' how I can make any lady gush, I can fuck for hours' yawn. It wouldn't do you any harm to sell yourself a bit more. Hope that helps! |

People can seem a bit blunt when giving advice mate, but that's because there's an endless stream of posts from men asking why they can't get meets. You weren't to know that, but look at the forums regularly and, to be honest, you'll be thinking "blimey, another one - this isn't rocket science".
The women on here can afford to be very picky because there's so many blokes on the site. I thought it was rude that they didn't reply when I first joined, but it you saw the sheer weight of messages they got you'd realise why. I meet someone socially off here and she showed me her messages. She'd had 43 that day and I believe women when they say they get more than that.
Most were poorly spelt, poorly worded nonsense from idiots who assumed she (a classy, intelligent women) would welcome a message like "fancy me f**king your brains out". It made looking at her inbox a chore and less than pleasant experience. Replying to all, or even the minority of decent messages would be impossible for her, as she's a busy person. It's nothing personal - move on.
Be yourself, be friendly, be humorous, be very patient. |

Agreed totally. If there are no pictures I don't even read the profile. Saying that, bad pictures are worse than no pictures! |

When I am up for a guy night I don't go shopping for guys on the site. I will answer any message that comes my way and save my favorites and check them out and chat a little - but there must be a picture of at least 1 of face/body and 1 of cock.
If I get 14 cock pics and no face pic - sorry to say I delete and block - I love the cock but I am not dating just the cock  |

S'all good bro, you'll get there someday
get in the chatrooms sometime, and you'd be a 'superwoman' not to block every guy on here
Times I really can't be bothered to type a message, even when I see I'm very much attracted to the profile. So I wink or just smile and let it go. Simple because I know it'll require some effort to write what I'd really want to say...
I enjoy reading and learning from the chatrooms. Give it a try sometimes |

I personally ignore any messages sent from a profile that has NO pics (or just cock pics)
A decent body pic works for me...Doesnt have to naked....and I dont expect a face to be shown on public profile either...

Hate to say it but I think coming on a website like this as a single bloke is probably a bit of a waste of time and effort. I should go and find a proper girlfriend, When you've got to know each other ask her if she is only into mongomous relationships or would she like to have some fun with other couples.
It's all about trust and I ask would you trust a single blokes profile on a website. I mean would you ? Some lucky random blokes do get to meet us but it's usually very spur of moment and to be brutally honest your profile wouldn't interest us.
Also some peeps say on here that you have to be patient. I'm not so sure that is true. If your face doesn't fit then you will probably get fed up of waiting.
Just being honest and the same applies to 100s of other blokes on here. It's why we block single males because the deluge of replies to our profile get's very tedious even though it states categorically no single males unless we fancy it for a change. I bet 90% of the couples on here are the same.

Like everything in life effort equals rewards, not that I'm hugely successful on here and maybe not successful enough to comment but from reading forums and speaking to friends would say not to send only cock pictures, not expect replys and don't insult the women if get turned down. Good luck and happy swinging |

Getting a meet takes time and effort, my profile is by no means perfect but I have a feeling that the amount of pictures and not just pictures of my johnson as helped with making contact. If you approach people you are interested in I think it's wise to be polite and try and incorporate something in your message to do with their profile. This will show you have read it and not just copy and pasted a generic "want to fuck" message, which again is a big no no. If you said that to someone whilst out and about you would probably get a kick in the balls. Also get yourself photo verified at the very least. Your profile does look like you have something to hide. |

You make a post that loads of other single me do on here saying no luck etc and folk including me get bored hence what you call sarcastic replies.
You will need to develop a thicker skin if the replies thus far are winding you up. |

To all the couples being sarcastic and arsey , id say if you want respect from single guys then show respect to them as well. I am now part of a couple but when I joined I was a single guy, and for some reason some couples on here seem to think that they somehow can have a double standard and be arsey to guys even when they've been nothing but polite and nice, so as my grandma used to say "If you cant say anything nice , don't say anything"  |

I agree with Pob08, a lot of people are negative towards single guys just because they are single.
Many guys I get messages from are perfectly polite and when I reply, even if it's a no, they are often surprised that I answered. These are not even the 'fancy a f**k' types who get ignored.
Plus everyone is new at some point and needs a helping hand. |

I don't reply to one-liners or messages that are obviously copied 'n pasted, and not a reaction to my profile. But if they are originals and I am not interested, I'll always send a polite 'no, thanks', together with my best wishes for them. And invariably I get a very nice response; most are surprised that they do get a reply, and return the best wishes. Perhaps I'm just an old fart, but oldfashioned politeness often works well. |

"No one is genuine" is heard so often on here and in chat yet loads of us have veri's from real meets.
This kind of moaning is unnecessary and unhelpful and shows the moaner in a negative light, which reduces their chances of a meet |

OK, I will re-word it, lots of the people we have encountered so far have not been genuine, and we can't wait to meet up with those that are!!
We have in fairness, been unlucky but I think that is in part due to us being totally new to this and somewhat naiive x |

I've been here a relative short time, and my meets, be they coffee or otherwise, have been with Real People, and bloody nice ones, too.
Been stood up for coffee meets 3 times. Their loss.
A few cancellations, but that could not be helped. Life sometimes interferes. |
