Definitely, and I wink people. It shows I’m interested in chatting. If only more ladies and couples would answer them. We are not lazy, sometimes a little shy or not good at messaging.

Yes. I like a wink. I think people should wink and if both wink they can message each other.

Always look at them. They are a good way to see that someone is interested. The problem is, that some do and some don't, so damned if you do, damned if you don't. We see them as a good thing, as long as you have read the profile first and digested the content.

Yes. I also send them myself. They're an indication of possible interest and I always check and reply to any near that I fancy following up. Unfortunately many are much too far away. Sometimes I do send an acknowledgement to those I'm not interested in, if they have a profile I would be interested in if they were nearer. Who knows they could be planning to visit my area.

We pretty much always look at a couples profile if we get a wink,guess something in our profile must have made them want to attract our attention.

Depends if we have matching "interests " if we wink back or message

Thanks for all the responses. I genuinely appreciate it all. It sounds as though people have totally mixed thoughts on this….. which I’m not surprised by really. It’s just something I was wondering about so as always thought it better to ask.

Again thank you for the feedback

I've just looked and I have 132 new winks. Would you expect me to check out all those profiles?

I've never winked and I very rarely look. I never respond to a wink either.

We send winks as an expression of interest. We both look at the winks as we see it the same thing and delete as we see fit.

It may be lazy/subtle but some of the best things are.

We do on times. Easily missed though as sometimes they don't show up and then when you open the winks file up it shows ones that you did not know were there.

Entirely their choice, if they don't want to then no worries from me. I do a few occasional one off messages for couples that fit my criteria but as most get ignored it's easier for me me to wink and hope someone is interested enough to wink back and then I'll start a conversation.

I don't doubt it! However I dont really have the time nor inclination to write loads of personal messages, particularly as I like to make them all individual rather than a standard copy and paste. As far as messaging goes it's quality not quantity however a quick wink is also a sign that I like someone's profile. It's quick and easy to do and statistically I'll get some responses, even if it's just a look. Anyway, neither messaging or winking has proved hugely successful so what do I know!

We like winks, though as we're currently not looking, a wink or a perfectly crafted message will make no difference.

When we are looking, we're happy to reply to a wink by winking back, if we're interested.

We've had a couple of very good meets begin exactly that way.
