I don't look at winks or fabs. I'm much more of a 'spell it out' kinda girl. Even in clubs I don't often get when guys are trying it on lol

If we get winks we just delete them if the guys haven’t read our profile . Some guys just wink at any couple without even reading their profile. So we delete and block. , if we wink we message to show who we are and attach face pics so they see us

They work for us, they let us know who reads the profile and allows us to rule out those that don't.

Send a wink.

If you don't get one back, send a message pronto.

We use them as an ice breaker. If they wink back we send a message and see how things go.

I believe that’s what they are for.

I like the wink system, it’s a very non intrusive way to gain attention of someone you’re interested in without forcing them to respond if there’s no returned interest, I check my winks and will wink back if I like them, in some cases I prefer winks to messages

Nope can’t say I bother with them at all.

Hubby sometimes thanks people for their wink, but can’t say I’ve ever chatted to someone because they winked

A wink is as good as a nod to a blind man.

I look at them in bulk every few weeks. Sometimes get a flutter at someone who might have sent one, but no action taken.

We reply with a wink, if interested. 90% of the the, we get no further contact (it's easy to wink by accident on mobile). 9% of the time, we get a message saying 'thanks for the wink'. 1% it might lead to a chat. So for us, no, not really.

We like them. If we get a wink and we wink back it’s us saying we like the look of you so feel free to message us. Most people do that but then we’ve had some who do nothing and then a month later they wink us again!

Sometimes we just straight send a message in reply to a wink but that’s reserved for those who look extra special

We like winks. If we get a wink & we like what we see we’ll reply with a message, it saves the uncomfortable “sorry not for us” response to people messaging us.

We do look at our winks and have had some success from them.

If we think it was an accident, we wink back if we like them. Easy to ignore if they're not of interest. If we think we might hit it off we'll message them.

I geuss for a lady, a wink is an easy way to break the ice..

For a guy, a nod is as good as a wink to a blind ol' bat..Nudge nudge, wink wink, Know what I mean, so probably not worth the effort..

or summit like that..

I use winks as a time saving idea.

It saves me the time of writing a message to someone, it saves them the time of reading and deleting said message.

I let the person know I like their profile.
