As a single straight guy on here, any advice on how to get interest from the ladies? Seems my efforts go unread or ignored.

Many people read profiles before the message. Do you feel yours gives an accurate picture of what someone could expect if they met you or what you expect from them?

"Many people read profiles before the message. Do you feel yours gives an accurate picture of what someone could expect if they met you or what you expect from them? "

In all honesty, I'm baffled by what to put. I've done the long wordy profile and tried to narrow it down over the past year, neither appears to help and if any interest is show, it's fro males and I clearly state that I'm straight so can't figure out where I'm going wrong.

You can filter out mail from sing men of it helps.

You're probably not doing anything wrong in particular, there are a lot of guys to women in fab. Are there any social events near you, do you chat in the forum much?

Ah ok, I'll look into the settings and sort that out, thanks.

I'd feel creepy turning up to an event on my own, just feels wrong to go to the clubs as a single man, pub's are a different thing, but swingers club's seem alien to me unfortunately

Organised socials are often in pubs.

Id suggest browse other profiles, to give you a little assistance, so you are able to create something that fits perfectly around you and your personality let it shine

Have you been to a club? If not then you don't know so worth trying.

Personally I would like to see more in your profile… what exactly are you looking for?

What do you have to offer… what makes you special compared to every other bloke?

I like more photos of full body… ideally standing! Blur/block of face and intimate area if desired but I want to see what’s on offer!

Good luck

Your profile is frankly terrible. Work out what draws you to other profiles and then put some of that in your own. It's more important to say what you do like rather than what you don't and what you are looking for. Lx

Now it makes sense. Thank you. I thought must be a euphemism for something 😁

You can’t accommodate: get to a club. Good single men will always be in demand, because threesomes, apart from anything else.

Because most people are not mutually compatible with most other people, the vast majority of Messi won't be replied to. They'll view your profile to see if they match and move on, when you don't

Obviously many clear photos helps them to know if it could physically work. Likewise, clear details of what you offer, completes the picture. Clubs are like pubs but with additional facilities. Single men are needed in them, on the nights that are open to them.

Your pictures are pretty poor and your bio is none existent.

You are competing with a lot of single guys on here and you need to stand out....you don't.

Also you can't accommodate and for us it screams cheating.not always the case we know that.

We won't ask anyone why they can't accommodate,nothing to do with us.

Just won't.meet them.

I'll be honest op, I don't think the first 2 pics add any value to your profile, you can't tell anything about you from them.

Also your profile text is Excatly the same as your tag line and tells us nothing at all except you're tall and want nsa fun.

What do you offer meets and what are you actually into, you need 5o try and sell yourself a bit.

You say you’re single, but your profile says attached (and can’t accommodate) so my money’s on you’ve got a wife at home who doesn’t realise what’s going on. HTH

Agreed. The pictures are low quality, and the bio is uninformative.

Several people have said that cropped photos are way better than pixelated nonsense, and you’ve just added a new one…. It would be a no from me.

Take photos of yourself. You can do it right now.

Prop your phone up with something - a book, the end of your bed, whatever. Either use the timer function or take stills from videos. There'll be lots of bloopers, but only you get to see those. Pose for the camera etc.

And crop your head. Don't pixelate, don't emoji, don't scribble. Crop.

Your profile screams to me "just another dude, not that interesting, says he's interested in everything, which probably means he's inexperienced or lying". It'd be an instant delete.

It's only my perspective, but it's all anyone is offering here.
