"Out of curiosity..?
How many people do you think actually post a Post on here
To then actually use this Forum to gain access to meet someone?
I'm just curious..
"
I have met many people based in the interactions I've had with them on the forums - in the Ireland section obviously. It gives a great indication of sense of humour and that always appeals to me. There are lots I still hope to meet someday 🙏  |

"I’m pretty sure there will be a lot that do that. Surely the forum is used like networking, getting to know people who share the same likes, views etc?
Donna "
Yeah.. totally agree with what you're saying |

I’ve met several people in real life as a result of silly but fun forum frolicking. It’s not intentional (on my part) but sometimes it’s too good an opportunity to miss if you’ve got a shared sense of humour or view point. Some of the flirty threads are a great way to open a conversation that may not happen without a forum nudge. |

Exactly this for me. as a single male it's a way of getting yourself out there. Rather than sending a message which is a bit like cold calling |

"The forums would be a great way of getting to know and meet people of everyone wasn't a million fucking miles away 😭
Agreed! Now we have to do a tour of the UK 😅
Just like Bonnie blue 😆 "
No not quite like that! Just to socialise 😅 |

I will say though that being in the middle of the country does at least make it slightly easier to get around 😅 |

I've been loads through forum interactions.
And also been familiar with people I've met at events because we were all shit posting in some silly game or being very serious about the definition of some random word.
Certainly when I started the forum was how I met people first and foremost |

I met Polly on the forums when she was "Hungry For A Kiss" and I was "Alwaysready21". She stayed in Blackburn and I'm 50 miles north of Aberdeen, so there was no way on earth we would have met if it hadn't been for the forums  |

Think forums are great way to meet people.
In answer to your question I think majority of people simply use the forums to waffle and make connections as a secondary. Xx |

I don't post on here or create threads as some 'targeted method' to "gain access to meet someone". I post on here to participate in the forå.
However, the majority of people that I meet are down to my forum presence/participation. |

It’s like when you see a good status and think yeah I want to interact with that person but you might not meet their criteria, but the open forum is public and if it’s a shared interest your bound to connect with the people on there, the only boundary for meets in some cases is distance.
