You’ve not been here very long, and you’re looking for a very particular niche. It’s going to be difficult on here. You may have more success in clubs / events that cater to your interests.

To put matters into perspective, when it relates to Single Males trying to get responses, in general terms, it takes ages for guys to achieve a reply.

That's because as there are likely to be 1000's all seeking ladies but the fact you have a specific request or "like" built in, you are narrowing the field down!

Your profile needs to be just like a CV you'd present for a Job. State what you can bring to a meet and what you would expect in turn.

You'd best try, as suggested already, attending a club and in particular, look for Fetish Nights being held as some clubs will hold periodic meets for both newcomers and established followers, but crucially, a club is a safe environment from which to start.

Look out too for Socials as they can be a route within which to meet others and build from there.

I've been on FAB for 15 years, so know the score for single guys. It takes time, you'll need patience in abundance, with added perseverance and a thick skin dealing with the zero answers.

Your several weeks on here, makes you a mere beginner but any success won't happen quickly. Start small and build up from there.

It can work, but only if you put in the effort as the Ladies get swamped with 100's of messages, so hold the cards and can be picky!

Good luck.

Pretty much this, the site isn’t full of women waiting for ‘you’ in particular but send a decent and genuine message and you will eventually find some women who are interested. The fact your bio is very particular is going to really reduce your chances so it will take longer but engage in the community forums, become part of the site and go to socials etc and you will find what you’re looking for.

Maybe consider widening the bio scope, talk about what else you like and pics of other things than boots but mention it as part of your overall profile.

Why not start a kinky boots post on the forum?

Don’t let people put you off your niche marketing profile. Having a more general blurb will just get you lost amongst all the other single mens profiles.

"Why not start a kinky boots post on the forum?"

This is the best advice OP. For now stick with what you want and a forum post like that will get people with a similar interested. It may take a while and several posts my be needed but does seem the best way forward for now. And, by the way, great boots in your pictures.

Minus the boots I think the profile is good can't tell if you Cross dress, are fab straight, or, you're into TVs with the boots.

Otherwise I like the profile.

The whole knows you might surprise yourself bit, I'd ditch

As well as the hotel bit unless you want the Scorts and Dug users on here to rob you in a hotel room.

Youve checked looking for couples, so if you're messaging couples I'm just going to respectfully point out that what you actually say in your profile seems that you are more geared towards meeting single women, which is something that puts us off single men when they message us.

Personally we quite like your profile.

Your pictures are good,but you don't need 2 pics of your cock.

Try putting one on in nice boxers.

You have narrowed your demographic with your user name.

Personally we would have mentioned the boot fetish in your bio.

But mentioning that it is something that really interests you,but it's not the only thing too.

But saying that there is a huge difference in what people are looking for and want out of this site.

So what works for some doesn't work for others.just got to find what works for you.

Probably 99% of people are not mutually compatible.

They won't respond if not, it's not about being unattractive, it's just wrong matches

With TVs is not a problem. I meant with Women. I know that they get thousands of messages but really destroy my self confidence. I meet one woman so far. I would love to have some more meet with girls but really hard even to get a reply.

In my opinion, you’ve made it worse now by removing the boot fetish stuff from the profile. It’s so bland now that it’ll not interest that many people anyway, and definitely not the people you’re interested in.

I would accept that it’ll be difficult here, but you just might attract someone compatible by giving out that information upfront. And remember that other fetish lifestyle websites are available.

We'd not reply to a message, simply because of your profile pic.

Your username rules out people who might prefer other beauty retailers like Superdrug or Savers.

Biggest tip would be read the profile before messaging them,it's there to help, it tells everyone what they are looking for, no point messaging them if not compatible.

Also as stated 1000s of guys all looking to meet singles or couples so stand out from the crowd. Far to many single guys think it's a sex site and think it's all about them.

Be respectful remember you need them more then they need you.
