Like it says above.I really dont get it, we are not looking for one but we get a lot of hello's and howye's and more verbose requests for meets.All are respectful and when we reply as we always try to with a polite thanks but no thanks,we'll invariably get a "sorry for troubling you but thanks for the polite response,we rarely get one"are they really that bad?If you dont want to answer them back thats fine too but Ithink they might be getting a bit too much bad press as we have never ever got a snotty msg from them when saying no.

It's the same for us, we have never ever had one bad reply from a single fella but we have had ones from couples! Some of the lads on here are so lovely to chat to!

I mean some of the "NO SINGLE GUYS "stuff in profiles is a bit ott,we are all hear for the same reason, why would you be suprised if someone finds you attractive and asks to meet you?bearing in mind the ratio of singles to cpls its hardly a shock, is it?

I believe that many girls and couples only pretending.

the timewaster point is, I believe more on their site then on the single dudes.

many of us are polite and genuine. so far, to about 90% I have had only pic collectors, attempted contact and then no further reply and rude ppl.

I think it is a pity because in the end of the day we are all here for the same thing...

Have to say my experience of single guys on here has all been good..even the guys whom I've had to tell that they are not my type all thanked me for my response and said they get a lot of rude replies so unfortunately I have to agree with you on this Paddy and Emily

I have found most people on here very polite and genuine. I would say to couples or gals who are hard on single guys to just try experiment. Set up single guys profile and use it for a week.

Fully understand your point. We don't have 'no single guys' on ours but also we're not specifically looking for single guys. I think it's just down to having some curtesy and respect for our fellow fabbers.

We're not going to contact someone who has specified wont meet smokers or has a specific age range etc. because that's their preference and we respect that. Most mails from males we have received have been pretty respectful but we also have had a few seriously fucked up ones. We're not going to reply to people who obviously haven't read our profile, why should we. Don't see the point of wasting time mailing a guy back who has an age range up to 35 and won't meet smokers. We have made contact with a few single guys but they have been of our choosing.

Regardless of the ratio of single guys/lady's/couples I think the reason single guys get such bad rap on here is because a lot of them are chancing their arms sending winks/friends requests and mails to others who's preferences don't match. They might be nice guys and I'm pretty sure most are but perhaps if they just stopped and thought before hitting the send button.

otherside of nowhere

after being on here for a few months we decided to block single guys not because we think they are the devils seed but because we felt bad sayin sorry ur not for us now if we meet a single guy at a party we can take things further if we and he wants to and we look at profiles to see if there is someone we think we might like and we mail them its been working a treat so far

I have been in this scene for long time. I've never shared in public what I am going to now. It will probably make me unpopular and probably responses will prove what I mean. Many will agree but won't comment. In my experience as we all know this is a woman's world couples next in line and single guys bottom if the heap. That's fair enough. A guy with this in mind needs to be very careful in what he says or does. One mistake or if you rub wrong woman or couple up the wrong way or they feel you did even and reputation can be ruined. Also women and couples will back up women and single guys normally will support them too. This is sort of terms of endearment scenario. I don't normally get involved in any of this but and don't expect anyone to agree. We all know women get hundreds of mails etc guys don't. Two sides to every coin. As for me setting up female profile probably enough guys with them already.

well said and fair play for saying it!

Not many speak their mind on here when it could be classed as controversial

we have not had bad experiences with single guys messaging and have always found them respectful and understanding of 'no'. (Except a couple of freaks trying to buy my underwear lol). What we have found...... is that there are quite a few extremely pushy, defensive and downright angry women out there though..... just our experiences so far!
