"we meet people very local to us...we've even met people in our very small village mainly because we're not much a part of village life here but oddly to some, won't meet people from the town where I work because that just feels too risky..." Interesting. I usually assume that people who live in small towns or villages avoid meeting others very close to them for discretion reasons mostly. | |||

"Two people on my friends list live on my street... " That would be very handy for...."sudden" urges, hehe. I met someone who lived on the same street as me back when i was a London resident. | |||

"but why would someone would decide that a potential meet is too local yet then moan about lack of local people id like some of my playmates to move closer and make my life easier " Beats me, it did seem very confusing. In any case, i just left them to it. They eventually cut their losses and left the site. In my ideal world, my playmates would be closer too. | |||

"The same block of flats was just too close " See, part of me would find that a thrill (and incredibly convenient too). However, it is totally understandable for a whole host of reasons, the main one being if they turn out to be a bit...loony | |||

Very similar to us. We have no relatives around here and most of our friends are London based. Pretty much without exception our only local friends are via the kink and/or swinging scenes often from munches as opposed to previous playmates. Our only concern locally is people I know from work (and I've had one near miss when I was a single), we have looked for meets near where crystal is originally from but it's not worth the risk as we've spotted several profiles that where she's recognised people. | |||

"I have an apartment in a small block, once had a lady turn up for a GB who remarked she used to come for fun times with a swinger on the floor below who had moved out a year before. I often thought it would have been easy for both of us. I've never really seen the problem, I have met someone outside in a supermarket, we just had a brief chat, no problems. I can't imagine anyone shouting out across the tills at Asda, 'Great gang bang last night'!!! Surely in this game it's discretion on the part of all parties?" The problem comes when you fall out... I saw this happen between two couples, both of whom used to go to the same house parties as me and my then GF, donkeys years ago. One couple all-but destroyed the other and, if memory serves, the couple who suffered ended up moving away from where they lived etc, etc. They lived on the same new housing estate and had previously been joking about how good it was that they could 'pop round each others for a quickie'... Neither of them gave a moments thought to what could happen... I don't blame anyone wanting to limit potential fall-out in any way if a Swinging relationship should collapse. ted. | |||

"Living on the outskirts of Leicestershire means we can meet what we consider local people, eg anyone from Leicester as it is a good 20 mins drive away. If there were any swingers in the village I wouldn't want to meet them as it is too close for my liking. On a different site last year we did see one couple from our village and spend ages guessing if we knew them, at one stage we thought it might be our next door neighbour. Security for me eg distance is more important to me than the convenience of locality. " * spent | |||

"I'm lazy and can't be arsed traipsing around the country for sex, so the closer the better. I've bumped into playmates in Sainsbury's, on the train, in six years not once has a playmate been anything but discrete. Long may my local meets continue! " I wouldn't be worried about discretion more a stalker lol | |||

" Hahaha, this mirrors my sentiments almost exactly! And to touch on a previously made point, i think most of us indulge in this in the hope (or possibly assumption) that everyone else will be as discrete as we would. That illusion is sometimes shattered when you see what some people post on the forums, but for the most part, i've had no problems with bumping into playmates outside of sexual encounters. Maybe i've just been lucky. | |||

"Disclaimer: this isn't a whine thread, just interested in getting the general forum mindset on this. A while back, i got chatting with a couple. Things were going well, both parties were happy and some meet plans were made. However, they eventually cancelled said plans a few days before when we discovered that we lived not far from each other (within a couple of miles) Now the above is fine. I'm no stranger to people not wanting to meet anyone close to their home for all sorts of reasons. However over the next few weeks, their status updates followed a very predictable pattern: Fridays: "Looking for local meets, get in touch" Saturdays: "Where are all the local single men?" Sundays: "Thinking of leaving the site due to lack of local meets (insert expletives here) So i'm left scratching my head mainly because of how contradictory this seemed to me. They were clearly after local meets primarily for convenience. And yet, someone compatible within a couple of miles is deemed "too close to home" So to the forum, at what point does local become "too local" for meeting people? Especially when convenience is an important part of overall criteria. I suspect this might differ wildly between singles and couples, but i'm interested in responses all the same " Last year I was exchanging messages with a guy, when I asked where he lived, he said the road, it was a ten minute walk from my house and opp my place of work. Can anyone beat that? | |||

For us, familiarity is more of a concern than locality. | |||

"I've met people very close by before but prefer a little distance now following one meet. Met a lovely lady and had great fun but this was kinda spoiled when a few days later I found myself queuing behind her in my local chippy. The combination of seeing her with kids and ordering a saveloy kinda killed any chance of another meet." Why did in kill any chance of another meet? Do you not like saveloys? Have bumped into people a few times while out and about doing everyday things. Has never put us off meeting them again. | |||

"I also once recieved a message from a woman who noticed I was local. We chatted for a bit and then went on cam. Her cam came on first and Oh my god she lived across the road. I jumped a mile. I could literally see her house from mine. Had never spoken to her before but was so tempted. Way toooo close. Especially as she was married and he didn't know. I did however have a little fun at her expense. She didn't believe me when I said I knew her so I reeled off her address,car and sons name. My bad lol." That's the beauty of a site like this; meeting a like-minded neighbour that maybe you've fantasized about but wouldn't dare ask lol In my own experience though; 90% of the locals I've chatted to won't meet a local person | |||

Absolutely, I wouldn't meet anyone within 100 miles of where I am, the gossip would spread eventually. | |||

"Dont know why people are worried ??? playing local , after all we are all on here for the same thing " We might all be here for the same thing but maybe different varieties of it. Some need discretion more than others. As a single woman living near my parents in a town where my family is well-known I need discretion. I think it can be different for couples as you have the support of each other. I have had a man pass my number on to his mate as he thought we'd be compatible. A woman showed my message to her friend who remembered meeting me. So not everyone is discreet ! | |||
