Have you ever made the first move and approached a single male on here?

Yup.

Sometimes it works out. Sometimes I get rejected.

It's rare I do see someone and reach out. But it does happen

That's how I prefer to do it. Filters up, send the messages, plenty of calamine lotion on hand for the sting of rejection.

Yep. I don't approach it as anything but a "you seem cool, fancy chatting" message and I've not... not had a reply. Works for me.

Why wouldn’t you message a guy on here first?

My hunch is that most women are bombed out by messages and can even login with out 69 messages jamming there inbox up.

Probably don’t even get time to search profiles and send the first message.

I stand to be corrected on this issue

Several just block single men from messaging to avoid that kind of burnout.

If they send someone a message, the site whitelists that person from the single male block.

It works for people

What Prey said.

The only downside to this approach is that you will never look cool on the "how many views..." threads.

Oh yes I get that the other downside is single guys can not wink or appear on who’s looked at you tab

Have i got that right?

I've also taken men out on a first date, and paid the bill.

Invited Storm to dinner a few weeks back actually at a very nice local Italian restaurant.

Yes, plenty of times. With mixed responses as I'm not everyone's cup of tea. This place would go a lot smoother if women grew a back bone and hunted for themselves rather than unhappily trolling through the dross that fills their inboxes.

I did a fair bit when I just had my single profile…but I mainly kept the filters closed so it was that or nothing

It’s a lot different/simpler on a couples profile, in terms of volume and approach.

The last time I sent a first contact message was in January 2020.

Every conversation I've had in the last 4½ years has been started by women making the first move and contacting me.
