"We've also noticed this with a few single guys. But more recently finding the exact same problem with couples and single females who say they want to meet then go quiet especially when the word 'friendship' is mentioned " Glad it's not just us then... I don't understand it. How can you have sex with someone that you don't have a connection with? | |||

I don't understand it. How can you have sex with someone that you don't have a connection with? " Amen to that. We didn't really know what to expect when we started swinging, thought it would all be about the sex.... but we rapidly found that we love making like-minded friends. That's not to say we cant swing with randoms, but given a choice we would prefer to be able to chat and have a giggle with people too. | |||

"Something we have noticed is that we are nearly always being messed around by single guys. Not every single guy but the majority of them. They always seem to message you when they want to hook up and seem to have no interest in a friendship. Is it just us or are other people finding the same thing?" Im finding exactly the same thing. I've been so messed around on here. I know not all are the same but the ones I seem to get are really bad. They don't want to talk and once they have played they move on. Some are just coffee meet time wasters Its put me off and I even thought of leaving here as it's not fun at the moment x | |||

"I'm glad you mentioned not all single guys are that bad. Unfortunately there are some bad apples on this site and i know where your coming from. Friendship is essential and hey don't let it stop you seeking the genuine people on this site. " Amen to that brother! | |||

Some single guys have a friendship interest but get messed around by women and couples so many times we don't get the chance to prove it. | |||

"I am a single guy, I am not married and am unable to accommodate, wether people believe me or not I don’t care. My bugbear is people being put off by other wankers killing it for the real people like me and others genuine singles, yes my age doesn’t help. My veris show I’m real, and most people say I’m a nice guy in them, lol but my veris must stand for fuck all, cos they have not helped me in any way what so ever to get meets, All are from social events in Swansea or Newport, don’t get me wrong, they are great meeting places and I would advise people to go to them. Having shot my self in the foot, all my veris are great people, I see then at socials and chat online. Because it’s so easy to hide behind a keyboard or mobile phones, there are so many wankers that spoil it for the real people, please don’t be put off, life is too short, enjoy your self, But take care. Sorry rant over" I don't blame u ranting at all. My hubby is the same as you, lovely men but don't get a look in even with great veries. I know there's nice men out there but it's very difficult to connect with what im into and that sadly brings in some horrid people. But we just all must push on forwards with hope x | |||

"maybe,,, on the other foot is when youre single like me, and im single by choice as i work hard and havent the time to devote to someone, people on here think theres something wrong with you if your single for a while, like you have rope, duck tape and a camper van? would go to a sinlge event but not sure if i would be swapping mobile numbers or the number to the local shrink lol" You're tarring women with the same brush, is that ironic? Never sure what that means so could be the wrong word X | |||

"All of the above is true so I now only meet those I've met at socials/events & have developed friendships with, those friends recommended to me or those that I can see from their veris have a record of being reliable. But tbh almost all my lone fun nowadays is at clubs or parties X" Think I'm gonna go down this route as well of meeting only at socials. I’ve had more hassle this last week than in the whole 7+ years I’ve been here! I fully agree that not all single guys are the same, but it’s so hard filtering out the good ones. It’s so cliched to say that the good ones are being tarred with the same brush as the bad ones, but it’s a cliche for a reason, cos I’m my experience, the bad ones outweigh the good! I think I’d rather take the pressure off and meet just at socials, then even if I don’t get to play, I’ve at least had a good night with some lovely genuine people. | |||

Maybe if on your profile you state...looking for single guys rather than NOT looking for single guys, some of us tidy ones might filter through...just a thought | |||

"If someone mails me an they ain't for me I do reply no thankyou An block then it saves future mails clogging up ur inbox n makes room for decent men/couples" I understand that sending 'no thank you' replies to every message is a huge undertaking for a single female due to the volume of mail, and also it often results in even more mail asking, "What's wrong with me then??" or other such stupid questions. However I find that the 'Private Notes' button helps here as if I get a reply saying 'No Thanks' (or even if they've read the mail and deleted, or even looked at my profile but not replied), then I clearly know they're not interested. A simple note to this effect will then remind me not to message them again as I can't see the point in mailing people who aren't interested. It's hardly as if pestering them is going to get them to change their minds is it !!!! It's not rocket science.... really, it isn't !! | |||

It's hardly as if pestering them is going to get them to change their minds is it !!!! It's not rocket science.... really, it isn't !!" That’s a good tip! I agree that it seems rude not to reply to messages, and I always try to reply if someone’s made an effort. I started yesterday with 201 messages in my inbox - and please don’t think I’m being bigheaded in saying this, I know many other women in the same situation, I’m nothing special. I managed to get it down to 150 by replying and deleting. This morning I have 212 . It really is that hard to get through them all so please guys bear that in mind. What I do is to start at the oldest messages and scan. If it’s a one-liner like Hi how you doing, or even worse a crude one like My cock will ruin you, I will just delete. Anyone that’s attached a face picture I will reply to cos I know that can be a big thing for some people. I will take time to read their messages/profile. If the profile has nothing on it then I don’t have much to go on. If I like their profile I’ll say so. It’s not possible to keep everyone happy, and this week I’ve found out to my detriment with two abusive messages and a meet let down. I’m off work this week so have a bit of spare time but usually that’s not the case. A bit of understanding from others goes a long way and I always try to return the favour. Xx | |||

"My own personal opinion is it's no different to real life--some you connect with some you don't--it's life!!--if friendship is wanted aswell as play there's no guarantee that once get to know eachother that it will continue!!--I find all I meet I get on with great on some level and still in contact for laughs and fun!!--it is hard for single guys granted but as I said before--keep to the real world this is just an add on " Perfectly captured X | |||

"Ive been using this site for 10+ years and the whole dynamic of it has changed drastically. Its more about getting picture likes, asling for money and social events. Its become a facebook site but with nudes. I enjoy the friendship side of things and getting to know people but i dont want to make friends, i have very little time for the current friends i have got let alone new friends off here but that doesnt mean i just want to fuck and go. I like to chat, flirt, banter and work up the lust before fucking but i dont necessarily think i need to attend an organised social for that. Im a genuine guy, not bad looking and am polite but it doesnt matter here any more" I couldn’t agree more with this. I have been a couple on here and now a single guy and will admit when a couple the whole going out for a meal together etc getting to know each other was nice and I still have a few friends from that time. I am always polite and well mannered. Old style values but most choices are made by looks alone. Unfortunately most of the tidy nice and polite blokes are not egotistical good looking jocks. Women chose aesthetically probably 90% of the time so are open to the kind of one line bullshit off these guys. Some women like being talked to that way but not most so they get what they want. More choice allows women to cherry pick meets. Always gonna be tough on single guys. You just gotta stay true to yourself and persevere x | |||

"Yes. True. I’m a newbie and have not met anyone on here yet. I know im a single guy who works all the time and juggles single parent life too. It’s hard to go out to pubs and clubs and talk to women. I’m average, I’m not drop dead gorgeous either, but it seems that women on here are sceptical and don’t know the good from the bad. I message to chat, but no one chats back. Shame. " Maybe if you really want a meet try a little harder and not have a defeatist attitude . Yep it’s hard going for blokes on here build friendships attraction is always deeper than skin deep | |||

It’s nice building a rapport with people and we have a couple of single guys we have met with more than a few times and enjoy they’re company as well as other things of course lol I wouldn’t call them friends though we didn’t get into swinging to make friends we already have those If that makes us bad swingers then so be it we enjoy ourselves and enjoy the site | |||

"Some are compulsive liars, as long as they get pussy they don't care who they hurt in their path. Sadly that's not made it easy now for others to message me as im very weary suspicious and think they are all lying to me. That will not get me far on here or be able to enjoy myself as I just can't let my guard down anymore. " I think what has happened is this is no longer a swingers site. The vast majority of newer members see it as a fuck and go site. True swinging in all its forms is based very much on the social aspects. Please keep the faith there are genuine people who need a connection and element of friendship on the site. Just takes a little time. | |||
