Do you accept blind friend requests? We don’t really, but I wonder what other people do.
Not usually, we like to see if we can get a response to an email first 
Not usually, looking at your pics I fully understand why you are getting blind friend requests, you are gorgeous! Just sayin... We expect an email in advance as a general rule.
Not accepting is one thing. But when couples think they are perfect they lose the honesty of swinging rules. Have respect and let them know it’s not a good fit. Don’t accept then look at all their personal pics shared with good people then unfriend them. RESPECT.
Well it depends. If they have pictures in their private folder and they look like they might be a decent match we do. If they don’t we will not and usually send an email letting them know why we aren’t (e.g. you don’t have photos).
Nope
Exactly what I mean. Just be honest.
We don’t usually accept blind requests.
We don't accept blind friend requests. We will send a friendly email letting them know that we don't accept blind friend request and that we appreciate it when others send a friendly email first. We also let them know that we're up for chatting but 95% of the time never hear back from them.
We agree with everything that's been said and it's always makes me smile when we get a blind friend request from someone with no pics. Give me a break...maybe some folks are ok with others perving their locked pics but at least have some of your own to share. We have never blind friended without first sending an email. Lots of folks just want to look and be entertained without regard for anything else.
Kind of varies by our mood but as a general rule, no. We assume, usually correctly, that blind friend requests come from people who just want to perv pictures and likely haven't even read our profile to see if we have anything in common...or have absolutely no intention of ever wanting to meet at some point.
A lot of them are basically just tire kickers and most likely just some dude who either doesn't even HAVE a partner or, if he does, she doesn't know about his little Swingular account. We've been wrong a couple of times but, in general, that's been our experience.
But I think we'd STILL rather get a blind friend request than an OBVIOUSLY spammed-out introductory e-mail that has horrific spelling and grammar errors and not one single characterizing feature that would lead us to believe that the sender didn't send the EXACT same thing, cut and pasted, to who knows how many others.

Usually no
We blind friend requested you. But for whatever reason on my iPhone it won’t send a message. I can only reply. I’m assuming it’s a feature issue? But we always try to message first if we can.
We will accept a blind request of the requesting party has private pics. It kills me when people want to be friends and have no private pics or no pics at all. It’s like ok we’ll be sure and get you off in all of our pics while you send none. To those people, get a new hobby.
But sorry that we blind requested you. Guilty.

Usually if they're verified we'll accept them. Everyone's different tho and has different views on their rules. You two look like a hot couple. Wish we lived closer 😘
I don’t not accept blind request from ANYONE not even Admin... yeah sure. Lol.
I really don’t think saying I don’t accept blind friend request is a very sincere answer... well wait, unless you haven’t been getting those blind requests from 10/10s. When you start getting requestion from 10/10s you’ll be re-accepting the requests and thanking them for sending the Blind Friend Requests... cya

We generally delete them, especially if it’s readily apparent that there is either a huge age gap, stats or body types are not similar or from what we read in their profile, we would have very little in common. No pics of the male half is usually a deal killer as well.
To each their own...good luck to all!

Me and the wife were just talking about this... it seems to me having "friends only" albums is silly because you'll just end up with dozens of names on your friends list from folks who just wanna see your private pictures, and then what's the point of even having a friends list if the people you have started to make a connection with are just lost amidst the sea of randoms?

No most of the time it's a single male.
We don't care and will accept them. But, we will quickly unfriend if the other couple does not have face pics. Our private folder has our face pics. So, we feel it's only fair if the other couple allows us to see their smiles too.
We address the subject in our profile as follows:
"We kind of like to reserve our friend's list and private photos, for people that live in the area, and with which we feel we might develop a special connection. We may or may not accept a blind friend request. It depends on who is asking, the mood we are in, and maybe even what we had for lunch. If you don't have any private photos, what advantage do we gain in allowing you access to ours? We will show you ours if you show us yours. Fair?"
People, especially those new to the scene, sometimes look at someone's profile pictures and just send the request without first reading the profile. Should we maybe just consider that a compliment? When we get a blind friend request we go ahead and read their profile. We ignore our own guidelines every now and again and accept blind friend request. Sometimes we just say why not? In our case the first impression our profile sort of sends out is come hither. So does it seem a bit odd to someone, especially someone new, if they reach out digitally, and the first message they receive is get the fuck away from us? Taking offense at these sorts of errors can diminish our own joy, and really does nothing to, or for the requester. Life is way too short. We try and send a cordial denial to most request we don't accept. Hey sometimes you just never know who might end up being someone significant in your journey through life. If someone crosses a line toward being persistently pesky or rude we just block them.
Happy thanksgiving everyone!

I check out the profile first. If that are just a guest and don't have a paying subscription I figure they are CL leftovers. BTW nothing wrong with a Stag.
Nope if they've got nothing to say why should I friend them.

Hate blind friend requests. Say something!!!!
Nope. At least send a message saying hello first.
We're okay with all disabilities...even sight impaired. Bring on those blind friend requests, bitches!
Would you come to us In person and say “can I see your naked pics?” No. You’d get to know us. Chat a bit or something. Have some cooth!
