Being a newbie, and a single guy, and not had a verification yet, its seems a bit crazy that some socials dont allow single guys or unverified. Surely a social, by its very nature, is a place to meet and mingle and maybe get verified. Can anyone enlighten me why this is so? |

because a lot of guys don't get what a social is.
i never limited guys from coming to mine but i did ban one guy i knew would be a sex pest and likely to ruin my social. as for randoms if their profile showed no hint of them being able to socialise then i also didn't want them to come.
people are taking time out to arrange these socials and so they can do whatever they want. it takes some organising. |

Because an unverified guy is an unknown anomaly. People who organise socials put a great deal of effort into such.
Because of this, they want the social to be a success, what makes successful socials are the people that turn up. The people that turn up are regulars on the scene, that attend socials and clubs predominantly. An unverified guy is a risk, a big one, because no one has vouched for you, the social organisers can't prove whether you're a decent guy.
I understand that it's a vicious circle for you, how can you get verified when no one will give you a chance right? My advice would be to attend a club, chat to a few people and get verified. This then puts you in a better light for future socials. |

"So basically what your saying is I won't be able to attend majority of socials. Bit crazy really but hey that's life I guess"
Start your own social or find a local one that does allow single men or look further afield. |

A lot of socials are in regular pubs. Nothing to stop anybody just turning up. We went to one once. It wasn't publically advertised, but word spreads and quite a few single guys turned up. I don't know if many of these guys had any success, as a lot of couples who attend these socials tend to be mainly interested in other couples. Although we did meet a nice guy at that one.

Not all socials are like that though, and once you are verified you can attend any you choose. |

We've been to a few socials, never heard of anyone verified or not being excluded. Very strange. |
