I was curious to know if single guys or even couples don't fully read our profile? We seem to be receiving friend requests from both parties. Mind you, there are some damn fine sexy guys on this site, but we are into couples only.

Mrs. Utcplbif
Um, beg to differ. Haven't figured out how to block a friend request. Do tell.
Oh, btw, thank you for the compliment. I see you have a new tat?
Thank you Anaisnhenry.
We have come to the conclusion that it is just part of the process dosent matter what the profile says you will still get the requests we just hit the thumbs down button and move on....sorry cant be of more help than that..By the way we completely agree with silent scorp nice pic..

You certainly can't blame anyone for trying, you put great bait in your pics!


Agreed...nice pic indeed.

Have to agree with MORGAN as well...we have come to the conclusion that this phenomenon is simply part of "what is", no matter how irksome. Pictures are obviously the first thing that MOST people may look at, but we couldn't imagine sending a generic friend request without at least introducing ourselves first...it's only polite. :)

Teasin, to be honest with you, Utah has been the only state with any issues regarding this lifestyle. If this were the only place we'd participated, we would think of it as normal. We take all of what we experience here very lightly with no expectations.
we also have problems with no shows, or last minute back outs.
UTCPL: I completely agree with your assessment about Utah. I've been around the lifestyle for a while and Utah has definitely been the worst area for flakes. Now, I have to admit, it is almost contagious. I have found myself canceling at the last minute and not thinking anything of it. The reasons were good (babysitters, etc.) It's definitely a regional difference.

One of my other observations are people that don't put full pictures in their profiles. You know the ones: just show a face pic in a sexy pose. They lie in their profiles about height, weight, or age. So you really can't tell from the pics. Just put it out there folks. There is someone for everyone but lying about body composition doesn't help anyone. Be proud of who you are and what you offer.

OK, I'll step down from the soapbox and turn it over to someone more intelligent.

MAVENX: I think it is natural for people to only put up pictures that show them in their best, our pictures are a prime example of what your talking about, however, we have included many videos that show every angle viewable to everyone so there are no surprises.
I do get your point though, there are many cock shots taken from the right angle to make 5 inches look like 9 inches, your photo using a common object to show scale is nice, I wish all solo males would do the same. it would indeed be great if everyone had something that reflected reality in their profile, but 2 of us are chubby and the 3rd is thin but hardly has a tight body, and our biggest concern is personality followed by skills. as much as I hate to say it...our experience with very out of shape solo guys has been disappointing, but the same does not hold true for females, big girls got some skills, yo! so we do tend to only car about the male having some level of fitness, but don't care so much about the body fat content of females.

I have come across a number of profiles that have joke pictures or obvious commercial pictures, and a few that have video clips featuring famous porn stars. now that is bothersome.

I am drinking and typing too much, and probably should not be, forgive me.

I have noticed...the longer the profile the less it gets completely read (I am guilty of this at times also)...I loose interest when they all say the same thing...now if something jumps out at me as funny, interesting, etc...then I tend to be more inclined to read the whole thing...bad I know but the truth ...*shrugs*...

UTCPLBIF...the only thing in your profile could be "NO SINGLE MALES/FEMALES" or "COUPLES ONLY" and you will still receive emails from them...just delete...takes like 2 seconds...annoying...yes...but if it's that irritating then block them...one thing I did notice with your profile though...as far as wording goes there is a sentence....

"If you find that you'd like to get to know us or meet us, DO NOT send an initial message with a friend request."

If not read completely this could explain friends requests with no messages...this sounds like you don't want a message introducing themselves when they send a friend request...

Anyway...just another persons opinion...Kisses...Naugh-Ty and Lucky B
Once again, that goes back to the original post stating that people are not fully reading the profile information. We said, before and after that statement you just quoted, that if another couple is interested, please send us a message. Basically, what we prefer is an initial message showing interest and then go from there with possible friend request. Could that be taken out of context? Most likely. It hasn't stopped sexy couples from taking the time to contact us so I guess it's not that big of a problem. Thanks for pointing it out though and putting me to work again. bleh! :)

The Mrs.
Well like I said just another persons opinion...do with is as you wish...and if it's not that big of a deal then what's the point of the whole post...thought you were...never mind...don't want to cause more work for ya...have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!!
I changed our profile so the point of this post is mute now. No need to further reply.
We REQUIRE all interested couples read our profile from beginning to end. From that point we provide a quiz to be sure they understood what they read.
