I just gotta know if anyone actually READS profiles anymore?? Or do people just look at the profile picture and think "Hey, I wanna hit that" and sends the friend request?

I'm starting this thread out of total frustration. Even though it might be shallow, I have stated in our profile, that if you (both the male and female part of the couple) are old enough to be my parent I'M NOT FREAKIN INTERESTED!! It totally creeps me out.
And how many times and in how many different ways do I need to state that Friend Requests WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED WITHOUT AN EMAIL ALONG WITH IT!! I'm not interested in just being friends with everyone in a 100 mile radius.
And yet every day I log in and I have requests from couples older than my parents and/or other couples and NO EMAILS with them! At least find me in the chat room and talk to me for a bit...and just being in the chat at the same time doesn't count as actually having a converstation.
Honestly, is it too much to ask that people actually read the entire profile before pushing that button?

Ok...let the angry replies begin.

I always read the profiles. It allows me to understand a bit of what the couples or singles are seeking.

I feel for ya...happens all the time...that would be why I have 93 friends requests sitting in my que right now...I got tired of some of them sending them over and over and the others I left there so if they ever decide to send me an actual email I can answer it lol
I think I'm gonna start writing all kinds of weird twisted shit and then list all the diseases I have (sexually or not), rate them at a disgusting level as well as a contagious level. See if anyone bothers paying attention. hahaha

ha ha! "Cpl looking for like minded cpls or SF to share our diseases with. Protection prohibited. Particularly looking for someone with warts... we haven't had them yet, but we're really interested in trying!"

If you do that, try putting "Blue Waffle" in there.. That will make people think. And if you look it up on Google they will be really grossed out.
I can honestly answer this with a resounding HELL NO they dont read them!!

The funniest, most ironic part of this thread is that those same people wont read it - LOL

NAUGHTYGIRL101 - I have about the same number of friend requests sitting, waiting for a response that will never happen - hahaha.

KITTY - you did mean to say a list of all the diseases you COULD have, right? ;-)

Look on the bright side, at least you dont end up wasting time/money meeting/talking to them just to find out their flakes... the delete key (or the "no" save list I put them in) is soooo much easier.
of course COULD have, but i'm not tell THEM that.
I think what CINNER meant to joke about was that the administration should create a "Too Fucking Old" block button, just like the button to block single men from writing a member already in place.
this old geezer is trying to compose an angry email... but the Geritol just kicked in and it's almost naptime. You're going to have to wait for a few.

How about TOO YOUNG.... not interested in people we can't communicate with or with some common life experiences... We have our own flexible definition, but at our ages... 20 and 30 somethings are younger than our children, no thanks.
I understand the frustration about people not reading profiles. I also know that age is the easiest thing to sort though when it comes to people who contact you. When I first started age mattered to me. I have found over the short time I have been single though that while music taste may be different most basic things aren't. We all live our lives work, kids(or no kids), Family, Mortgage, friends. None of that really changes that much, and really isn't it nice to know/hang out with people who have been though it?
Back to the subject at hand though... anyone that doesn't read your profile isn't worth your time just delete their messages/request and forget about them.
I read every word.
we never read them, if we like the way a couple contacts us or single then we check them out. for us we enjoy this lifestyle to have fun, to pretend, to act in a way we dont in our normal lives. So i think that for us we take the profile with a grain of salt.We dont try to figure out someone by what they put on the profile. The best ones we have met didnt have more than 10 words on it. we are grown up we will figure it out.
how about a button for lets just fuck and the hell with mental stimulation. omg this is funny. thats why we dont request a friendship because r we looking for friends? maybe try facebook. CLICKISH!

I beat you to it, and yes, many do actually read it!!! Well at least on the writing twisted stuff and filling in the checkboxes and weights and such strangely. (I know from the emails I get later!)

Kinda funny, I do have some friends from here on facebook and they have others...I get friends requests there that our only mutual friends are obvious lifestylers...same story, no message, email anything...if I don't accept blind requests here why would I do it on my facebook where my real life is?? roflmao
To be honest we don't always read the complete profile. Same with the pics don't always look at them. If something catches our eye then we will read more and if there is something that is a deal breaker we go no further. When we do read a full profile if we are interested in the people we will send an email in it we will put in parts of their profile showing that we have read it. Seldom do we hear back and some send a friend request and never anything else. Then there are the ones that say we will reply to all emails or if you send an email and a friend request we will email you back... funny thing they never do. Just our nickle ( inflation you know)
Male half of this couple here......
Honestly when browsing profiles if the picture catches my eye i read the profile and make sure everything is compatible. If their is no picture i usually don't bother reading it lets be honest i wanna see who im thinking about and so do you.....
As far as the request we get well sorry no email no friend easy as that......

Just my 2 cents
Lucky
I'm just saying, the profiles are there for a reason. Whether or not you want to fill it out or leave it blank is up to you, but isn't it just polite to read a couples (or singles) profile IF they have filled it out?? It actually might contain things that will either confirm you have things in common or show you that either YOU aren't what they are looking for or the other way around.
Looks to me like she douched with the Easter egg dye.
We are glad we found the "Too Fucking Old" black button and hit it when we were young. They taught us courtesy, respect and how to keep an open mind when meeting someone that didn't have a rock hard body or an age close to ours. Experience had a way of cutting through the game playing and straight to the fucking. Would be interesting to have a "Black Out Fucking Button" where everyone was blindfolded. Wonder just how many could tell if they were with their parents or children by touch alone. And wonder how many of the "Too Fucking Young" will survive to enjoy the "Too Fucking Old" club. We are proud to say we have and it's been a great ride. And when are we to fucking old to fuck!!! We sure as hell don't see it in the near future.
We don't ever read anything in the profile ... breast and cock size are our only criteria. And we will gladly accept friend requests sent without a message if whoever sent the friend request is hot. If they aren't hot then we will be offended that they had the audacity to send a friend request without a message, I mean how incredibly rude, it really hurts our feelings.
what are friends?
No I don't believe any one reads them ... this would be my latest posting ... As usual a couple looked at our pics and didn't read our profile. We've stated we're looking for friends and thought we'd established we weren't looking for notches in our lipstick case ... The couple in question arrived from Canada earlier in the month and would be returning end of the month ...staying two plus hours away from us ... their profile says they aren't looking for one night stands ( oh really ?? ) That only the girls will chat when contact is being made ( their profile really wanted bi women not curious or bi social just bi ) when i told them we weren't interested in one night stands and as a couple we weren't interested in woman woman talk and they would have to deal with me .. ( understand My BFF ( wife ) is looking over my shoulder ) since we've had rude couples and single males and I Do the talking ... they wrote me back and stated that I was a control freak and good luck with OUR search ... We didnt even seek them out ... Have enough friends in the lifestyle here to keep us busy for a while ... some people's kids ...

Ah, butt those who discriminate against we older folk have obviously already convinced themselves that THEY will be forever young, and will NEVER have to worry about a day when they too will be banned from the sandbox because they're no longer a youthful Barbie & Ken couple.

Well said, UTAHCOUPLE4PLAY.
Wish the 4 of us could be there to witness the rude awakening when that happens - don't you?
Why do people get so bent out of shape when a profile says they aren't turned on by XYZ and you just happen to be exactly what they don't want. If you are too old/young/fat/thin/gay/straight/what-the-fuck-ever for someone, get over it. You are being sexually rejected by internet strangers, not lynched by a town mob.

Seriously, get off the cross. We need the wood.

Whether intentionally irreverent or not....I LOVE it! It is ESPECIALLY amusing, if not ironic...given the fact that it is Easter (reference to the cross), AND posted on a swinger site ("We need 'wood'").

Sounds like you took my "Old enough to be my parent" statement a little too personally....I have nothing against older couples. And my reason for this thread wasn't to bash on the older couples on here...It was to vent my frustrations about how people don't read profiles. We filled out our profile so that we can find like minded people easier. We like to read profiles to find out more about the couple, what they like, what they are into, what do they like to do on the weekends, is she bi-sexual like me?? Thats a very important thing to know. Because if she isn't I KNOW that couple itsn't for us. So should all the couples that DON'T have a bi-female be all mad at me for stating what I like and don't like, what I'm ok with and what creeps me out??? Its the same thing...what each individual likes, is looking for, and what they AREN'T.

People need to stop reading between the lines of the examples I gave of how obviously people aren't reading MY profile (i.e.: couples in their 50's, not sending an email with the friend request), and see the reason for the thread.
