How proactive are you?

Quite often I see people posting about how they can't get the meets that they want or that they're frustrated about lack of quality messages, or even about the poor quality of threads on the forums.

My question is; do you act proactively to change these things? Do you search out the people that you want and send the first message?

Do you actively engage with people the way that you would like to be engaged with?

Do you post the kind of threads that interest you?

Over to you dear fabbers...

Meet wise, yes I do search and message them first, but that’s with couples not using the forums. As for forumites, occasionally I’ll be brave and message first but not often.

As for threads, no I’m not always proactive. X

I'm not that proactive atm, because I'm getting bored of it all.

Occasionally I'll have a look at my who's near. Sometimes I'll use the search feature but with it throwing up 300 + results with quite tight preferences I ain't got time for that so don't bother.

I never send first messages and I do ok, I generally stick to light hearted threads because the more serious ones end up very negative sometimes, especially if it's a woman that started it, the guys want to protect her and quite often ignore the obvious holes in the story, I wonder why.

Yes I’ll search and message and yes I’ll message off the back of a thread. The trick to learn is finding the woman who I fancy and that I think the recipient will respond.

I find that it has little to do with popularity or with any form of clique, it's just about being known. The more you post, the more you're noticed etc.

not very proactive. If someone who is on my hot list shows interest ie through fabbing my pics then I'll message first. But generally I don't bother.

Face pic Friday is about as proactive as I get as I've hooked up with a couple of hotties that way.

I did originally start by doing searching (sitting reading/flirting on the forum still counts as searching) and messaging

Recently I've let myself get found, and that works pretty well also.

If the forum is boring I'll (unbelievably) lòg off and do something else until someone comes along to make it more interesting.

Exactly the same as turning off your phone, so you don't walk into traffic when reading, yes.

I've never really tried using threads but otherwise Im quite proactive by looking into who I think ill like and leaving an inviting message.

Many times I don't get a response due to the sheer amount of messages women get. It is what it is

There and to the left a bit

In terms of messaging people cold, I've never been particularly pro-active - think I've sent maybe 5 or 6 unsolicited messages in my two years here, and most of those were when I first set up the profile.

In terms of being active on the forums though (which I guess is a form of pro-activeness in order to get yourself noticed) it's a different story, and has led to pretty much all of my meets in one way or another - that said even then unless it's blatantly obvious someone would want to meet me, I'm a little backwards in coming forwards and suggesting it.

I do ok as it is but most of the time the issue for me is logistics! Almost everyone I’ve met or fancy are in a different town as much as I love arranging a meet, chatting and travelling sometimes I like to act spontaneous, living in Wiltshire sure puts paid to that!!

As with everything it depends. Sometimes we will actively look for meets, email people, post photos to attract attention then other times we will go quiet and if we get offers great if not who cares.

I find I get more interest by doing less. Men are always seen as pushy. So by doing less, I appear more normal?
