There's a few profiles I've got on my hotlist, and I can't bring myself to send a message, dunno what it is that's holding me off though, I fit within their requirements, I'm sure if we did get together we'd have a good laugh but I just don't seem to be able to message them.

Anyone else looked at a profile and thought yes yes yes yes yes...... oh hold on

I falter where sending messages are concerned because I'm concerned they will think it's a definite fuck for them, because I've shown them interest.

Yep. Had it a few times.

For me it's a lack of confidence or if I'm interested in someone else at the same time I don't wanna have to make the choice between the 2 if by some miracle they both wanted to meet me, heaven forbid on the same day. I'm crap at making decisions.

Yes all the time

Its just my nature not to be too pushy

If I see a profile I like the look of I'll fab the pics..add to hotlist..and keep checking for updates

If their interested then no doubt they'll notice and and hopefully get in touch

But is it a case of too many knockbacks previously do you think?

I'm actually really shy. I can talk for Scotland in real face to face stuff but I never know what to write. I've met people at socials who I tried to start a conversation with in message (once I get started I'm fine but my initial message are.... lacklustre) failed and then we have a laugh about how we would never have spoken if it had been down to that.

That's why I am always telling people socials are important!!!

Oh and "I'm a (gender) looking to meet men, women and couples" blanket profile that's way to common.

If they have loads of verifications. I think they have a massive black book to call upon and I'd have very little chance. I will look at their profile a few times in the hope they might also show an interest and give me a nod. Otherwise I just look. There's lots to look at.

Wouldn't say that, had plenty of knock backs but never let it get to me as I know I'm not for everyone, but I've not actively messaged anyone new for quite a while now.

It's usually if I think they're too hot. Some ladies on here could be models and it makes me think "they must get 1000 messages a day, they'll never see mine, and if they did they'd never reply".

Possibly lack of confidence on my part, or just a desire to meet someone more real.

I'm slightly worried at all the guys on here that seem to think that looking at a girl's profile or fabbing a photo is going to be noticed. I haven't looked at the 'Who's Looked At Me' page in months - it's hard enough keeping up with messages, never mind the rest of it.

I know what is meant though - there's loads of profiles where I've ummed and ahhhhed and then just stuck 'em in my hotlist like a wuss

I enjoy chatting. I think it's good when it gets going. You can usually tell quite quickly by replies whether someone is on same page.

It's just the initial message.

Don't want to be too laid back... to intense... too serious... too humorous... argh

Knowing I probably won't get a reply,and if I do my lack of being able to accommodate at the moment doesn't help.

Then there's the child care to consider.

I will eventually message and arrange something with the lovely ladies locally to me.

Some,bless em meet for socials already.its the other stuff after the socials that's difficult

Generally we never message first and don't have a hotlist, so people really have to catch our eye for us to want to message.

Often thought about sending a first message to some forum posters, but always change my mind, usually because I might just want to applaud a post or comment on a thread or that they have some very nice pictures.

I dont send the message as I would not want some to read more into it than that.

For a few of the people that I have ended up replying to them on the forum I have met them and had really good plays

My problem is that because of football it is hard to plan more than a couple of months ahead, and also I am in Manchester every other weekend so for people not in London or Manchester it is hard.

I would rather be honest and say that it is unlikely we would get time to play - than string someone along, though a few people on friends list have been their for 2 years or more and we haven't played but then we have managed to arrange something and
