Is it that I’m a single guy or just don’t stand out from the rest

The ratio of single guys to single women and couples (that want to meet a single guy) are, quite frankly not balanced. Single guys make up the majority of the site.

You have to stand out and make yourself seen. how you do that is up to you. Get yourself to a social event or a club and you'll probably have more success.

...go to one of the organised socials mentioned on the threads...

We'd second the advice above. It's not easy for single men to "make it" on here. Socials and clubs should help get you recognised in the scene.

Your profile isn't bad, you've got a good selection of decent pictures.

The one thing I'd change is probably use one of the more brighter and happier pictures for you profile pic.

Like others have said, a social or club would be a really good way to expand into the community.

This site is a great way of communicating with people but it is far easier to meet people when they are already out in a club and then keep in touch with them on here.

Socials are a good idea till you realise you need to pay to enter as a single man in alot of them, and even then you need to make sure it's something you really want to, or are you just looking to stand out for single one on one interaction

"Socials are a good idea till you realise you need to pay to enter as a single man in alot of them, and even then you need to make sure it's something you really want to, or are you just looking to stand out for single one on one interaction"

Go to the ones that don't charge entry? Or charge only the amount you are willing to pay? We declined an invitation to a "social" recently as they were charging £50 per couple and were a tad sketchy on why. They were like "oh, it's a post-lockdown party, with disco, karaoke etc" and they couldn't understand why we would not jump in head first. We are, however, going to one that charges £5 per person, £10 if you'd like to stay for the evening, which is much more reasonable.

If what you want from this site is a quick fuck, then we agree, socials are not for you. This site isn't necessarily either, but that's a different story.

But if you actually want to be in the swinging lifestyle, which is about more than just sex, then definitely go to organised socials, be friendly and polite, get yourself recognised on the scene.

Agree with the posts about getting yourself to socials and clubs.

Be friendly, approachable and don't expect anything.

Don't ask personal questions like where do you live, job etc.

Had one guy ask where we lived, told him the area but he replied, yes, but where exactly do you live....

Make sure you get their FAB profile name, so many times we have met and can't remember their names the next day.

Read profiles in full.

Be yourself and things will happen.

Good luck.

Agreed, get to a social event or club. Being a man on here your 1/20,000. Put yourself in a social event or club and your going to be 1/50 maybe less. See my logic? Is giving yourself the best chances

He’s right. It’s all about networking and getting to know people, then the invitations and verifications come along. I hate the cliche old ‘you get out what you put in’ but it’s true, to make it a lifestyle you need to be seen on the scene. Xx

. I can’t believe people are charging people to attend a social.The socials I have attended in London before Covid19 were in pubs and were free to attend.The organisers would start a thread in the London forum those interested in attending would express a interest on the forum.The organisers would message you the exact location a day before and I would turn up have a few drinks and a good night with like minded adults.
