"Yeah comment on my profile if you like. My expectations weren't to just dive into the sack with a load of different women, but it was at least to have some good conversations. " The forums e.g. The Lounge might lead to some conversation, don't expect to be acknowledged straight away (we've been here years and can sometimes be ignored for days ). As far as your profile goes its a bit brief and doesn't give much away. I get the impression you're looking for one woman...if so say it. Lots of women are looking for one guy. | |||

I say start in 3 places... time, patience and basic common sense... is 1 week in and ranting giving it time? is 1 week in and ranting showing patience? basic common sense? what have you written.. how do you stand out.... what screams to people wow i have to meet that person..... the rest you can work out for yourself.... but the starting point may be the actually sit down than think about what you are trying to get across... think of it like this, you spent more energy and words on your rant about how its hard than you bothered to use on your profile trying to say to people why they should meet you!!!! | |||

Good luck my friend. | |||

"Oh and if you want comment on your profile you need to ask outright, it isn't allowed otherwise." No need to ask outright, you can critique someone's profile either if they ask you OR if it is relevent to the thread. In this case id say it's relevent | |||

"One week isn't long. What were your expectations of the site when you joined? The reality is that women are in the minority and single men in a very large majority. You need to stand out from the rest and be patient. It helps to join in the forums and socials and clubs can get your face known. Good luck " | |||

"Some very b*tchy people here calling me a moaner. Im new to this and only asking for advice. If you think Im a moaner then dont engage with me, I specifically asked for constructive criticism. When somebody is asking for criticism, pointers, advice etc I think its the opposite of moaning its actually reaching out to people " so you only want to converse with people who will spoonfeed it to you and go there there there.... gotcha!!! okay... if you want to continue that analogy... if you were going out and it was raining, wouldn't you have put some thought into what you would take with you...maybe wellies, umbrella, coat with a hood... point is you would have prepped.... you may not think of it as a moan... but the point still stands that you decided to spent more time and words answering this and all the other replies than you have bothered to spend to your actual profile and telling the world why people should want to meet you!!!! you get out what you put in..... so putting it bluntly what sort of effort did you put into your profile? really? hand on heart! | |||

Your profile really does not stand out at all. If you are relying on it to attract people then take some time to produce a decent profile. | |||

"I think its unfair to call it a rant - i was only asking for advice mate" Welcome to the forum you can't control them, people respond on the way you come across. What was it you were expecting when you joined ??? people are trying to point out it may have been unrealistic. | |||

"I guess you are just another who imagined that you would be balls deep in clunge within days." Absolutely this, the site is full of them. Politeness, courtesy and not moaning are acceptable to me, don't be pushy after a week. It's taken me eight months to get used to how things work | |||

Lots of useful advise been given. Maybe saying people are bitchy after 10 bits of positive advise and 1 or 2 bits of useful criticism is a pointer to where you are going wrong????? | |||

"It's not just a slog for single guys! I'm finding it very hard work sifting through the messages, chatting with people and then trying to find time in our busy schedules to actually meet if we get along. Not to mention dealing with the rude and unpleasant people who take some of the fun out of the experience. I don't think anyone ever said it was supposed to be easy to meet on here and a little patience and persistence goes a long way. And having no expectations helps a lot too. " There' a lot to be said for clubs. You can tell very quickly if you are right for someone, where you could be weeks messaging doing the same thing, matching diaries etc. | |||

But I don't always want club sex, I also like getting to know people. Quite a few times I've played with someone at a club and kept in touch but they turned out to be a dick! Also clubs can be hard work when the male to female ratio is off or if there's slim pickings the night you go. | |||

Fab chats can sometimes be quick and fun and result in a meet with a great person. As single fem, I understand the sifting is much harder for you. | |||

"Hi OP. Not much more to say really. Yes you do need to add to your profile, as in what do you have to offer and what would you look for, in any future meets. Do you think your profile sounds interesting to others? Also try not to jump back at people in here, if they appear unhelpful, some of us have a strange sense of humour I wish you luck and fun!

"Thanks for all your advice everyone Ive tried to make the improvements needed! (Maybe I should have just got back in the gym - my xmas bod still hasnt left me yet)" You'll be fine. Patience, profile improvements and join in on the forums more (now you've survived the mauling...) also look out for socials, the chatrooms, the meets and clubs section and make 2017 memorable. I know sometimes you don't like what you read but you need to have a thicker skin and not let pixel people do your nut in. Despite appearances - we were all trying to help. | |||
