Why am I getting views from so far away?!

Okay, so this isn't a whinge or a complaint, more a genuine question. How can people from away down south view me, and why do they message? In my updates, I can only see my friends and local updates so I've no idea how I'm coming up for people, hundreds of miles away, to view me? Is there something I'm missing, or have I got my settings wrong, or what? Thanks for your help xx

Anyone on the site can view your profile.

They could be people traveling to the area for work so are maybe looking at women in that area

Sorry for being stupid, but how does that work? Do they just search by location etc?xx

I get this too. I’m not sure if it’s the ‘who is online now’ function that allows anyone to view you.

Go into advanced search, either expand search radius.

Or pop in a postcode or town , say Gatwick airport (RH6) and again set the distance.

See what pops up.

We have had this a lot lately. I think it's people getting ready to travel to the area as we live by the seaside, holiday makers

Yes they are probably using advance search & maybe putting in a location they are traveling to .

it's nothing new as I've always had many views from different locations ie England,Ireland & Wales even USA

I think it's a forum thing too, there's more inter room forum of late and so folk look at whose commented - just a theory

You post on the forums. Lots of people (like me) sometimes like to find out more about forum posters.

Sometimes it gives more context to a post, others it maybe gives a bit of personality (there's some creative profiles out there), sometimes it's just because they have an attractive/interesting profile picture. There's lots of reasons why I'd have a look.

Could be from posting on forums or the "browse & search profiles" tab. If you look at 'couples online' it gives profiles from all over the place not just local

We have been getting more and more of these and messages from people way down south looking to meet. Even had some Irish people looking at our profile.

Hope you and stag are keeping well Mrs and hopefully not long before we can all meet up and have a laugh again soon xxx

You can search by interest as well so you can see all the people online who have something specific in their interests list. I use that if I’m ever looking for phone sex, but folks could use it for anything and you’ll pop up even if you’re miles away

Haha I said that to hubby that we were just starting to let our hair down and enjoying being more involved.

Am worried that I won't be as confident when we finally get allowed back.

Canny wait to see you both again though. Think it will be a while before we are allowed to get back to our normal way of life and play xx

I take it something popped up last time you were in Gatwick airport.

It is this! You'll find you'll get more views like this when you are online/active. Plus posting on the forum regularly will open you up to anyone too!

I sometimes like looking at the pictures and if a new one takes my fancy I will fab it. I then may look at the profile to look at the other pics and videos. They could be miles away but I can still appreciate a sexy lady.

This is the same for us, if we’re online we seem to get views from all over the uk. Even more when we’ve posted in other parts of the forum too
