"It seems age is more than just a number on this site and being 25 closes more doors than it opens on fab! Are there any couples or women about who prefer a younger man?" loads...this site is full of cradle snatchers and nutters...good luck.xxx | |||

"Try adding some pics to yur profile - who knows, people might even start to believe that you are real and up for it .." its difficult for me to do that - i work across the north west and i'd hate to ever be recognised! i could see the chances are low but it isn't work risking my job should the wrong people be aware of what i do for fun! i have pics in private... and i dont see the value in putting a cock pic as a profile pic i just think its a bit desperate - i'd rather people want to see me, not my just my cock! | |||

" Good response, but to a lot of people it's a cop out response and they won't want to know ..... No one is suggesting that you put a face pic on your profile, but there are plenty ways to let people see who or what you are, or indeed if you really exist, other than showing a face pic, so sorry, but your "reponse above" doean't really cut the mustard with us and I suspect the same will go for many other people ... | |||

"catch 22 situation really! maybe once i've had a meet or two i will be more confident and put some viewable ones on!" Hmmmmmmm interesting So what's stopping you from putting a few 'viewable ones' on before you have a couple of meets ? Seems that you have some in private alreday so why not make some of them public then we can all have a look ? Lets be fair - it only takes the wrong person to view your private ones and you could potentially be recognised, albeit a slim chance, but it could happen, so how do you decide who you accept as a friend and who you reject ? | |||

"catch 22 situation really! maybe once i've had a meet or two i will be more confident and put some viewable ones on!" People need to see pics first,we would never meet anyone without pics on profile. You could always put them in private gallery. x | |||

"i can make an informed decision can't i based on prior discussions. same reason as before for not putting any on. i don't want a face pic on display, and i don't see how a cock/body pic would prove someone was more genuine. i can understand your point of view - but as far as adding pics goes im not ready to change my stance yet. i just hope some people would give me the time of day regardless of my age! i've found age not pics to be the major problem!" Whether or not you can show your face (for instance, I can't show mine because of who I work for), you can put on a body shot, taken in a mirror. It gives people a general idea of whether or not you could be their type. If you don't bother, and by reading your posts on here....... I'd personally say that you have something to hide. It's constructive critisism, and as I've been swinging longer than you have been legal ........ I'm speaking from experience. Your profile is your advert to the swinging world, brighten it up, make sure there are no spelling mistakes and get some (even if it's only 1) piccie on there. Join in the forums and get to a few socials....... you'll soon be enjoying yourself. | |||

But the part I cannot for the life of me grasp, is the fact that you'll put some pics up after you've had a meet or two, but not before. It's got me confused, I must confess. Do you instantly become unrecognisable after a meet ? ![]() | |||

" my identity is the thing i am trying to hide!" The swinging community isn't that big...... especially on here. You will be recognised sooner rather than later. A body shot will not show anything that you wouldn't show in the gym/swimming pool/showers after rugby etc. YOU either have something to hide, or you shouldn't be swinging! | |||

"I enjoy the forums but some of the responses are sooo predictable and it really does become a bit tiresome!! If a profile pic is so important, explain this to me please; I've not met a lot of folk here but those that I have, I met before I had a public profile pic!! Since having a public pic, I haven't met one new person!!" Maybe it was something else that you changed in your profile that puts people off.......... not the photo thing! | |||

"cheers _adchick! sound advicei dont think its your age. you just sound a bit dodgy." People on here are giving you sound advice,most of the people who have given you advice have been on here a lot longer than you. You asked if it was your age because you are not getting meets,people have pointed out to you that the reason is lack of pics. You have obviously assumed that you would have had plenty of meets under your belt by now and are now spitting your dummy out over it!! | |||

You said that you couldnt put pics up because of your job,turns out that you said it was because you were not in shape.. Seems you have posted something simular in past... Why would anyone want to meet someone who isnt honest in what they post? Stop whinging about getting no meets and do something about it!!!! | |||

"I'm 25 and have not had anyone say I'm too young so far! There aren't a huge amount of profiles that say 30+ so just avoid them, and tbh some of those that do aren't hugely strict on their age ranges and will still meet some people our age. Its down to whether they like YOU or not, and if they don't they may just say that it's your age as an easy way of saying no. " But you have photos...... A decentish profile.......

But oh, there again I almost forgot - it's because you're not in the best of shape - that's why you don't post any pics, so really nothing at all to do with clients is it ? | |||

I don't see that your age would be a problem, I'd jazz up your profile a bit, def add a pic - I have read all the posts and you really do need at least one, join in on the threads in the lounge, go to some socials or try a club, mix and also take advice in good grace if you ask for it expect some responses that you may not like! | |||

"i have a face pic in private.. the conversation has gone from age to pics as always on this site!!" . That's because no pics = not interested for a lot of people on this site, as the seasoned peeps have informed you already. It is up to you to decide whether to accept or reject their advice! ![]() | |||

"well although i agree the the forum reply. i too have put piccies on profile and hid my face for reasons as others have, i have offered to people i communicate with the send face pic - not an issue at all as i agree no one wants a blind date. but for me i still have no joy any ideas please folks - ive also chatted in chat rooms, tbh have had one friend off here who now has a lover and isnt interested any more in other guys but other than that i have not had any other luck i look forward to the helpful replies xx ![]() Hi!!! Hope you're well. The only thing that would put me off and I can't speak for any one else is your 'interest' list - seems very hard core and pretty random - like you've just ticked everything! You might very well be into all that and are being honest but just my view of it. Anyway, good luck and perhaps show the verification and get along to a few clubs! Zoe xxx | |||

"If hes fake or not he has a point with the age issue. Hard to find any genuine women on here that are into younger lads. " Twaddle...... sorry but it is.... people are always complaining about "too old" or "too young"...... but lets cut to the chase... Some people are not going to want to play with people old enough to be there mums or dads.... such is life!! Some people are not going to want to play with people young enough to be there sons or daughters... again such is life!!!! see... Double Edged sword and it cuts both ways..... such is life!! Maybe its not an "age" thing for a lot of people, its a "how you come across" thing, for example.. the OP has whinged about other things before, people gave him advice and it went in one ear and out the other..... you get one chance to make a great first impression... what kind of impression does a whinge leave??? age is just the next convient excuse in the mind of the person who has been rejected... maybe the real reason is a lot closer to home! ![]() | |||
