"Think we all do this. We also do it if the other person/people seem like swinging pros, we would probably be to shy for them. " Exactly my thoughts too | |||

"Reverse uno... You look at them and decide they're too hot to message, meanwhile they're looking at you thinking "way out my league". As another poster noted - what have you got to lose? So long as you can handle rejection, I say go for it! Plus no one is ever going to say "nah sorry mate, you're a five but I think I'm an 8 so bad luck!" And if they do, well you dodged a bullet because that's just unkind and uneccesary. " Very true | |||

"100% I always wonder 'why did they wink/msg me?' - are they playing the odds, contact everyone and someone is bound to reply.... so either they are too hot for me or they'll dip their stick in anything I don't tend to send the first message, but then, neurodivergant with rejection sensitive dysphoria so I try not to be rejected and hate rejecting others.... Oooof this fab malarkey is hard work for an overthinker! Hahahaha" Don’t understand why people wink you wink back and then nothing | |||

I don't like rejecting people either. Suppose could alway just tell them they remind you of a family member to much haha | |||

"All the time and then even if they approach me I'll be put off if someone they've met previously is super hot. My brain instantly tells me I can't compete or would be a disappointment. I also know that what I portray in my pictures is different from the "normal" day to day me who will show up for coffee. I think that's why I've always favoured meeting people via the forums more than just randomly. " Jeans and tee shirt, a smile and some good chat. I'd be impressed | |||

Am I alone on this boat? " Everyone of us does or does not do it due to confidence or lack off, shy, forward, respect etc... |Even reading profiles, I read every profile I look at and if they are not looking for what I I'm looking for then I wouldn't message. For anyone lacking confidence or don't think they are good enough, we are all good enough so contact them, the worst they can say is no or ignore your message. You just might be that perfect connection and you don't realize. I do not think I'm out of anyone's league, I am out of many age range's so those I do not contact. In saying that, sometimes I message due to a profile comment or statues, either funny or I have a question about it and conversations sometimes do start up and continue | |||

If I saw you at a club I wouldn't approach you as I'd think you were out of my league | |||

Be confident and you never know the fun you could have " I agree with this, and in a way no one is better than anyone else either - but in a way we all seem to put people on a pedestal and think they are out of reach. Prob one of the reasons i stay in my hidey hole at times haha i take in all that i see what folk say in forums - and then i only notice this post like a week later | |||

"I think that girls are mainly the ones with self esteem issues, but beauty is in the eyes of the beholder." Disagree, think it same for both. Women are maybe just more open with it if they feeling that way. | |||

Am I alone on this boat? Nope, I know I'm a match for anyone in being enjoyable company, social or sexual but they don't know me or you and you have to connect quick or make an interest because if not there is a huge amount who think the next profile is better than the last Preference is preference, we all have our interests people wise" lol...never a truer word said... | |||

"I ( Helen ) am always paranoid of messaging profiles I like because they are out of my league. Even when meeting I’m always thinking what if they don’t like me. That’s probably why I always prefer repeat meets as on the 2nd meet I know they’ve obviously enjoyed enough to return so I can let myself go a bit more to relax and it’s probably more enjoyable for all involved. We have been interested in finding couple fab friends but I’m always to nervous " You look incredible in your pics, Hels. I think you could definitely have more confidence in yourself. | |||
