Behind the bike shed!

Clubs are the best way for a single guy. Also a detailed, interesting profile. Lots of information about your personality and what you potentially want to do.

But clubs are your best bet.

To get a reply back it helps to have a profile pic.

Use your profile to still yourself.

Express what seek and what you can offer.

Profile pic, maybe add a couple more pics.

Read profiles that catch your eye, if you feel you for their criteria then go ahead and message them with a message they can relate to.

See your profile as a CV and a message as a cover letter, kinda thing

As you haven't specifically asked for profile advice, I can't give you any, but you need to ask yoursekf if your profile is the best it can possibly be and how it looks to others.

Most on here will take a look at your profile before even thinking of opening your message.

Your lack of a profile pic may lead most to not even do that and delete your message straight off.

Any man who has a two line profile and no photo is wasting their time OP. I can't comment on your profile due to fab rules.

A profile that tells the reader a little about you, what you offer and what you're looking for.

A few decent photos, something that stands out from the norm. Personally, no cock picks, unless they're in your private folder. Other people may be ok with them.

Group socials. Find one, they're out there.

Clubs. There may not be a club close to you, be prepared to travel.

You have to put some work in, don't have high expectations and be ready for a few knock backs.

A few random thoughts, hope they help.

The first thing people do before they reply to a message is look at the sender's profile.

That might be one of your problems.

OP - most women and couples here get many many messages every day from guys who haven't read their profiles properly first. If that's what you've been doing, we'd advise taking more time to target fewer people but with more specific messages tailored to them. You can send as many polite and complimentary messages as you like but if you don't fit their most basic needs/preferences then you probably won't get a reply. In fact site guidleines state that a no reply should be taken as 'a polite no thank you'.

The fact that this subject comes up again and again, week in and week out, shows what a big problem it is. To get results, you have to put a lot of effort in and be prepared to maintain it.

Based on your profile I would ignore it. I’m more likely to respond to profiles that have had some thought put into them and with decent photos
