Reaching a plateau

I've been on here a few months now and have been lucky enough to have had a couple of really great meets. I've read lots of posts about how difficult it is to get meets but having had a couple in a relatively short space of time thought I was doing good ok. However just recently I'm finding that despite nice polite and content rich messages I'm getting no replies, not even no thanks. Having felt I've reached a plateau I'm turning to my fellow forum friends for their comments, advice and opinions. Many thanks.

To an extent its luck of the draw I'm afraid. I can't see that you're doing much wrong if anything. I do like to see a smile though .

All I can say is keep on keeping on and good luck.

There's factor of being fresh meat, and a kid in a sweet shop.

You join a site, message everyone of interest in your area, and meet the ones who are interested in return.

Then you find that you've ran out of compatible people in your area.

You have a variety of poses in the photos, but only one glum-looking expression in all. I hate having my photo taken, so I can sympathise, but you could do with a smiley couple of pics. Might help...good luck.

Thanks for all of your input, it is appreciated and I see what you're all saying.

Always struggled with smiling for photos its so unnatural to me. I will redo some though as it's important.

Thanks again everyone xx

Very much this.

Plus your current petulant status message won't be helping ...

Always make sure I do this, never send just random messages. Still good advice though so thanks.

How long ago? Defo wouldn't have been recently. Need to know what to write so always need to read profiles. Maybe I'll try messaging again? Hehe!

There isn't! You will need to look further afield.
