"99/100? You think that’s true?" I have no way of knowing, but I am just being honest about how easy it is to put someone off in a room full of people who DO lie through their little pointy teeth. In life I would take it at face value - on internet sites? Not a chance, though I do simply ask directly - that would be my first question 'Are you attached?'. | |||

"99/100? You think that’s true?" certainly true often enough for me to take it as someone attached..especially if they use the word more than once...and always has to be spelt incorrectly as well! i find people who arent cheating tend to mention the reason they can't accom in a message initially anyway. | |||

"I don't assume anything about not being able to accommodate, it's just no good to me so no point even talking, or I might ask diectly. But yes, I may well assume the worst of a profile with no pics, one way or another, and particularly ones that put one anonymous pic of their chest up and take it down when they're not online. Yeah right!  | |||

"Most folks profiles bang on about how wonderful they are, at doing certain sexual acts etc. Which is fair enough. However, self praise is no recommendation. I'd prefer to chat, get to know them, check out their humour, see how tolerant they are of moody women, lull them into a false sense of security that i'm not that moody, shag them, then go out in a big bang of moodiness. My profile doesn't tell you all that, but corresponding with me would. See. Never judge a book by its cover." Exactly - there's a fine line between blatant self promotion, and attempting to give some of yourself across in a profile. It's a bit like a CV and job interview. My CV is good, but my interview technique is WAY more impressive! | |||
