I’m super polite, also try to use proper sentences and actually read profiles. To provide a good respectful opening message and always attach a face picture.
Is there something I’m missing when sending a message?

I'd say it's necessary but not sufficient.
Failing to be polite is a no, but being polite isn't a yes.
I'm not saying you're doing this, but sometimes boasting about politeness is a turn off. It's almost akin to "I am better than all these other men, I wipe my arse without being asked". Ok, that makes you vaguely acceptable, not extraordinary.
("Wiping own arse" is an exaggeration to illustrate the general point) |

Manners maketh man unless it's inconvenient?
Fascinating. |

No. Well, not necessarily. Being polite is a default attribute. You could be polite to a child or an octogenarian, but you wouldn't be doing it to exude any form of 'hotness', but simply for civility, courtesy and manners.
The same would apply if you're messaging people on here, unless the profile explicitly dictates "speak to me like you wish to degrade me or ruin me". |

Yeah I don’t mention I’m polite just my messages are written in a polite manner. |

It depends how polite. It’s a balancing act. It’s been proven that people will be more drawn to you the more succinct and direct you are.
Over politeness can sometimes show as weakness |

Nothing I've said changes with your reply.
Necessary, not sufficient, not remarkable. |

I short, yes. If someone sends you messages with broken English (not talking about those where English isn't their first language) it kinda puts you on the back foot straight away.
We are not only here for the physical stuff. I'd like somewhat of intelligent conversations before or after. |

I see no indication of him communicating in broken English. |

Im the same kind of man as the OP. Always polite and chatty after initial shyness. Sadly the only meet I got on here I travelled 4 hours round trip for a no show and a block. Being nice is obviously not working. Mind you single men are not on the majority of swingers shopping lista. But one remains forever hopeful.
