Winks and winking

What's the point in winks?

Btw I said winks not wanks.

But what is the point in winking.

Anyone who winks at me I always send a mail and never hear from them. I just don't get them. Winks that is.

I think the majority of winkers are guys and I’d suspect they do it to a lot at once rather than someone they think they’d click with. I suppose they show your possibly interested without having to write. Or the could be treated as an initial enquiry to see if you wink back.

I think its a great way to let someone know you appreciate their profile.

Women get a lot of mail. So a wink stops their mail box getting stuffed

At the start of our fab journey we Used to think they were a good way of expressing an interest in a profile without being pushy.

Now not to sure what use they are tbh

Get lots of dem and then if we say hi get nothing back

It's a subtle way of saying hi, without the disappointment of and unread message. If they wink back then I'd send a message

Some are a way of making contact and some are a way to show an appreciation for a profile without actually wanting to meet.

The challenge is to figure out which is which.

I don’t even check winks, or friend requests..

best way to get my attention is a message.

I never send a wink because I assume they would be ignored, but I've had a few from ladies and always respond!

For me, (Jack), if I like a pic, it just means I like your pic. A wink is definitely a shy hello. To gauge reaction.Although most times if I'm ,or we, are interested in a couple, then a few lines in a message almost always gets a reply/

Im sending winks often if im interested in someone.Ud call them "careful approach". Replied winks leads to chat then meets. I check winks too. I think winks are good idea.

Maybe if they meet you on the street they'll give you more than a wink

If its a boring message it tells you all you need to know

Exactly. So there's not really much point in replying is there? Which answeres OP's question why someone doesn't reply to a message sent to a person who winked

I'm probably a compulsive winker.

If I Fab more than a few pics, I'll usually wink too. Normally it's to say Your Pics Are Gorgeous kinda thing but occasionally it's meant in a more I'd love to Meet You for coffee way.

Depends on the profile I guess.

Occasionally it's just for the sheer hell of a chance encounter.

A lot of ladies say they bulk delete but I know that's not always true and I also can be fairly certain that 99% of guys pay attention to them, though don't always reply.

I never ignore one from a female and always think of it as a conversation opener.

What happens afterwards, the stars will determine

Its just another way to try and say hi, lets face it getting the initial conversation started is the hardest part on here. If you mess it up after you chatting then its your own fault but getting the chance is the key, have a wink, you never know they may wink back

Winks are handy because most women have filters up to block single males. When they wink at you then the filter is off for you and you can message back as otherwise you've no way of interacting.

That's a lot of intention in a little wink.

If a guys profile and/or pics interest me, I would send them a wink.

If it turns out we don't float each others boat sure no harm done
