Women/ couples use them, I’m usually expected to message back, so yeah they do have a purpose.

We use winks to gauge if someone is interested. If they wink us, its to say hey or "hey". We do the same, if they wink back we will send a messege.

We don't much take notice of them. They just sit there, usually unresponded too and undelete.

Maybe there should a way of blocking them, for those that can't see they're just a "gentle hi" that is!

For a time we tried responding to winks with a message. Most of the time we got no reply. Gave up with them and pretty much ignore them.

The right place

I think winks are a great idea. If I get one I know someone is interested and if I like the look of them a conversation can start

How would you pull in a pub? Eye up the candy, cheeky little smile and maybe a wink. See if it’s reciprocated, then that gives an open door to chat. Or do you write a message on a piece of paper walk up to someone without eyeing them up and hand it to them?

Personally there’s no harm in winks, they’re not lazy, it’s an indicator as to whether the other person maybe interested. M&L

If you don’t bother. Then why occasionally send one?

That’s what they are doing with you? Perhaps you may find someone you like in amongst them. Ms Myth and I started our relationship with a wink. We now live together.

I don't mind them as a little ice breaker ,if the sender has read my profile and might be what I'm looking for.

Sadly delete most of them

We see them as show of interest and invitation to message if the other party is interested.

I'll go peep at them.

I may keep a tally of who is compatible and see what the results are (profile wise not looks wise)

Ok so I checked the first 50.

I'm using the words "match what I'm looking for" very loosely.

Basically I checked if they'd meet smokers or not.

12 out of 50 would not.

2 had hidden profiles.

Out of the other 36:

6 were local (within 20 miles)

3 were chancers visiting the area.

6 had what I would consider an actual profile. More than 5 lines of text.

2 I would consider meeting if they were closer

1 I would consider meeting who is quite close.

I get a wink I proceed to read their profile and if I like what I have read then I message.

People who cant stand winks might as well not look at messages (sterner stuff) in my opening as it shows a lack of intrigue.

Yeah, I'm a bit gutted. I was hoping for great things!

I winked one guy and he messaged within about 30 seconds thanking me for the wink, my thought process was right

We’ve just been winked at by a 19 year old in California. Apart from the 28 year age gap, the 5200 miles distance between us and the fact that he obviously couldn’t be arsed to read our profile we’ve got a good feeling about this.

Why..we are having a break from messages because of work commitments so can not reply straight away..If we got a load of winks we would just delete them anyway..so what point are you trying to make by saying not surprised you have hidden your profile

I'f they're "just a gentle hi" why not just message them and say hi? I'll generally respond to a message but ignore a wink.

Totally agree. I wink if there is a profile I like and think I may match what they are looking for. Its just a way of expressing your interest.

We never know how many we get as we just bulk delete them. It does say this in our profile though so we are not missing out on anything as anyone who sends a wink won't have read it so no loss as far as we are concerned.

We see it as a bit of a 'check out my/our profile' which is great. Until their profile turns out to be a one-liner with the only pics pics being dick pics

Because with a hi you feel forced to talk. Winks are ideal to express an interest. *mrs
