So to start out with, Ms Bunnee and I are going our separate ways after a wonderful, happy relationship. We're not angry or hostile, we just want different things. No issue there.

My problem arises with this profile. Bunnee isn't into swinging anymore, and though she loves the lifestyle, she has many friends who let her be voyeur to their escapades. So I've been left with custody of the VB profile and I would love to stick around, but I'm not really interested in being, not only a single male, but the guy left holding the bag. I guess my question is threefold: 1) What assumptions would you make about a guy who converted his couples profile after she left? 2) Realistically, how hard is it to be a single male in the lifestyle? Assume respect, average looks, and friendly personality. 3) What's the etiquette for the friends list? Mass email or just change the profile and see if they notice?

I've made some excellent friends thanks to this site and community, and even if I decide to come back later with someone new, I'm grateful for superb experiences, great guys who offer no judgements, beautiful ladies who embody courtesy and grace wether they were wearing evening gowns, lingerie, or just a stray dribble of cum. ;)
1. Simply the assumption that it is a single not a couple. Kudos for being honest and changing it to single. I've seen many swap it over to single as well as leave it a couple and list singledom later on in the profile. I prefer when they simply switch it to single.

2. I think it really depends on how well known you were as a couple and if you had a good reputation as a married male. That will help your reputation as a single and make it easier for you to continue playing.

3. Send a mass email letting people know that the profile is changing. I'd leave it up to them to keep or delete you from their list.
You could always change your profile name, and in your mass email state what it's changing to for your current friends and give yourself the chance at a new start. Best of luck!

Yep, sounds about right to me. You might even summarize what you say here in your profile for awhile. Your being straight-forward is a big plus.

I like your guys profile too...there were (are) actually pics of YOU! So many couples don't have pics of the male like they don't even matter. I finally just dumped all mine of my hubby as well! OK, I actually don't visit here much anymore and dumped ALL my pics! :)

I doubt the odds are real good for a single guy here? I'm probably one of a very few who hook up with single guys on a regular basis, but I've found the parties and this service to be more oriented toward picking up single gals or, grudgingly, other couples when it had to be that way. It's just easy enough for me to meet guys away from this environment and coax them unwittingly into my lair!

I wouldn't let that discourage you though -- odds are just that, and if you don't at least try you'll never know!! :) While I'm too old for ya, there's lots of folks around younger I'm sure!!

If you don't mind my saying so... your age only matters to you, cuz I think you're hot! Just sayin'

Hey, I like your attitude!!!
I've been with younger guys .... but when a guy is around my eldest sons age it tends to creep me out just a bit! It is MY problem though ... the age thing hasn't seemed to bother too many guys and I've worked around it as well.

Thanks for the sweet compliment!
I have a hard fast rule. I don't do anyone born in the same decade as my children. Or my parents.

Yeah, but do you round UP or DOWN with that? LOL

You're very welcome. I understand and respect the rules people set, but the sexual experience is what it is. As cliche as it may sound, it can see past the body type, the age, the social stigmas, etc... Of course that is just my humble two bits. ;)

Both! So anyone born before/during the 40s and anyone in 1990 or later is OFF LIMITS. And I'm kinda picky about the 50s and the 80s too.
Thanks everyone for the info and support. I suspected Kitty's answers were the right ones, I just thought I'd confirm. The lifestyle is one of the few places where ignorance and confidence are not the best answer.

Hmmm...I'd say that sounds about right! ;) Dang, yer so organized and rationale about it. Makes me feel like I'd better reorganize my medicine cabinet or something.
But seriously, I guess we're pretty close on age 'cause I'd say that's spot on for me as well....and it's nothing against those age groups, it's just me and my own preferences.

Oops...sorry to kind of hijack your post! We threw in a "lil" bit of advice along the way though!? Maybe?!
I have no advice to give on the subject. As a single female I don't feel qualified to speak on such matters. But if anyone gives the OP shit about being a single male lemme know so I can can get on my "room for everyone" soapbox. Which for the record, is Sam's Club size.
If you have made friends and they are real friends they will stay with you and see that you are welcome in the lifestyle. And to be honest, being a single male is not that bad, especially at your age. There is no reason why you can not have a place here and in the vanilla world if you wish it. Just be honest about who you are and take life as it comes at you. You already have had a step up, so just hang in there.

There are single women here that want a relationship if that is what you want and you might find each other. Not as many as else where, but you can play the odds. I think that they are in your favor if you stay in good shape and have a decent personality. You are young and I am sure that have a lot to learn about women. But there are women in this lifestyle that are going to find you attractive and use you as a piece of candy and that is not that bad. You probably won
Hey Blue Eyes, you are starting to make me feel very, very old... I am sure that I can put my walker aside long enough to use something else as a "prop" to get close enough to the golden valley to make a gal happy! The way some of you gals talk I must be gettin close to the perverbial foot in the grave...
To use a well used phrase: just sayin!
OH, and VB, I think you are going the right way. At least be honest and if someone is interested they will let ya know. That way you get to know the ones that are worth knowing. My gal has decided that she does not want to play so I know the feeling and we just have to go on. But good luck and keep stroking it will all come out in the end!

Ummm, yeah I don't know what BlueEyes was thinking. I was only agreeing with her 'cause I'm trying to get in her pants, or, more accurately, her shirt 'cause I want boobs like that!

But seriously, I don't think it's an INDIVIDUAL age thing, like gee you're TOO old to be having sex, or someone is TOO young etc, I think for me it's just the DIFFERENCE in age between me and someone else. Typically if you're as old as my parents or as young as my son it's just strange for me. It's definitely my OWN issue though and not some opinion that ya'll or VB ain't extremely sexy folks!

Geez, I'm always hijacking threads. Someone slap me.

Let me guess. You forgot the coffee, that's why you didn't come sneaking up the stairs like agreed upon. Well, I did warn you.....no coffee no boobies.

Um. I can't tell you what a cocktail would get you tho.
