hey there, just thought I'd ask your views on asking for pics or a chat with the female before going onto arrange a meet with a male/female couple... I have done in the past and I've made it my rule, but I've just had an experience where a couple were up4 a meet, but wouldnt swap pics or allow me to talk to the female... I believe they had sumthing to hide and didnt go through with it....
No I don't think it's unfair providing you are prepared to reciprocate.
Love
FIRE xx
I wouldn't consider meeting anyone be it female/male/couple/group :shock: without speaking on the telephone and seeing a face picture. I'm not being shallow, I just take safety issues seriously and I'm very picky as to what floats my boat.
of course... I have pics on my profile and willing to talk.. I've got nothing to hide!
when i asked fora pic or to speak to the female, the reply was we're not in this to make friends or to go through the third degree!
I'm have my personal saftey in mind always... If i got there and i didnt find them attractive then wasted journey.. thats the whole point of pictures on the site!
i think that you had a point there........i wouldnt go on a meet without swapping photos and wouldnt have a meet here without at-least having a contact telephone number.
However i would go out on a limb and say that some genuine people get the hump if you dare to suggest that they might not be genuine.... however i couldnt see how, if you explained why you were sceptical, you wouldnt find some middle-ground somewhere. We've all had reservations at some point.
id say though that being up for a meet and actually making the definate arrangements are slightly different .. but i get your point entirely....
there is also however the issue that they might have thought that you werent genuine.... so i suppose that you would have had to take a chance and send your pic in the hope that they might follow suit.
id say that the "photograph exchange" is the real litmus test of genuineness.....and asking to speak to her on the phone shouldnt have necessarily been a problem....
i think , from what you say in your post.... they were timewasters........
some very good points made deecee, if they were genuine then they would have nothing to hide!
I've heard of some bad experiences during meets and wouldnt want to walk into the pub and find to gay guys..
nothing against gays btw but i'm str8! I'm not on here for that!
I'd never even consider meeting someone unless we either exchanged phone calls or better still had a cam chat. It's partly to see if we like each other ( back to the subject of looks over personality but I couldn't shag anyone I wasn't attracted to ) and also I want to verify that they really are a female or couple and not a single male. It's a safety aspect for me too.
Make it clear from the outset that no early phonecall, face pics or cam chat means no meet. If they're genuine ( I hate using that word ) and seriously interested, they'll agree.
Good luck :thumbup:
i WOULDN'T MEET UP WITH ANYONE WHO IS NOT PREPARED TO SWOP PHOTOS....U DID RIGHT
