Confusing profiles and adverts

5 Oct 2008

Can anyone explain
When searching for possible contacts I'd like to find those looking for single males. But when I look at many of the resulting profiles although they do list that they are "looking for" single straight male, the message and/or adverts say they are either not or are definitly not looking for single males.
Either the search engine needs looking at or the profiles do.
What is your take on this?

Most couples and bi ladies will keep their options open by ticking the "single straight males" box on the profile. There are so many of us single males around to choose from that they are spoilt for choice and don't normally need to advertise. The search engine will simply search to see if that box is ticked. My best advice would be to spend time getting to know people in the forum, the chatrooms, and at any social events you can get to. Answering ads just might get you somewhere, but my experience is that you only get about 1 reply for every 50 letters you write ( and thats a reply of any sort, not a "yes please")
Good luck

Valid points HJ and I am doing just that.

We still end up with the rather odd situation of people saying they want something and then saying they don't want it when offered it! wink
