Hi everyone and thanks for reading, I'd appreciate any advice you can give me.
I'm a 28 y/o single male looking for couples, but everytime I write to a couple I never get a reply!
I feel like I'm polite, tell them what I'm looking for (nothing weird!), I always offer a phone number to prove I'm genuine, I also offer a webcam so they can see me first, I'm always happy to meet for a drink first also.
If I receive an message then I always have the courtesy to reply, even if its a polite no.
So what am I doing wrong? Have been on this site for a couple of years but just dont feel like its worth the frustration anymore.
Does anyone else have the same problem or is it just me??!
is the only way you try to meet people by replying to adverts?
have you thought of trying maybe a chat room and getting to know people, there are normally chat room socials that go on.
or even putting your name down on a social in lets meet up
these events are good for networking and people getting to see you and chat to you in a none pressure environment
can lead to what you are looking for

I understand that Steve, which is why I dont ever send more than one message, I dont want to harrass people.
But it gets a bit demoralising when you never receive a reply!
Thanks for replying though.
Well I'm stumped. You're gorgeous, sexy, obviously articulate and have a banging profile with pics (phwoarr to the pics btw).
If I was younger & 'fitter' then you'd have a pm in your mail box by now. I can only say keep trying. Do you frequent the chat rooms? Attend socials? Maybe you just need to become more 'known' in a general sense.
Good luck - I hope you soon get the action you're looking for.

Thanks H,
Yeah I always read the ad, and make sure I mention parts of it in my message, I've heard about people who just cut and paste to send a message.
I won't lose heart though, all these messages have made me see that there are people out there who genuinely want to help and reply!
I have just had a quick peek at your profile and i agree with sugar-n-pom, but as part of a couple what would put us off from your profile is that you say you are a straight male, but in the what you are looking for bit you say you are looking for a couple with a bi male, so kind of sending mixed messages....so we would disregard an message you might send on that alone...
sorry if that sounds picky but you did ask
but very nice profile other than that mmmmmmmmmmm

See if there are any socials in your area, and ask in that thread for an invite.
You should look out for the couples who are advertising for single guys and make sure you read their ad and their profile to get an idea as to what they are looking for. If it is compatible exactly to what you are looking for then you have a much better chance of getting a response. As has been said many, many times on this forum - you nee to make an effort and a nice picture with obvious references in your reply to the couples ad/profile at least shows you have an imagination. We get so many replies from guys who simply do do not read our profile and go on to tell us what they are looking for!!
You might also try a Club so as to get a feel for the lifestyle this will come over in your writings I'm sure.
You do have one of the better profiles I've seen, and if you weren't so far away from us, who knows...
But if we were to meet up with a guy, then it would most likely be someone we had got friendly with via the forums/chat, rather than seeking out, or if we had met already.
I suppose it is hard in chat if couples take over, but you're maybe visiting the wrong rooms? But definately keep chatting in the forums!

Phew.... well thanks to everyone for replying, it's taken a while but think I have replied to most of you!
Thanks for your message Fabio (and for the benefit of the doubt!), it definately wasn't meant as a 'look at me' thread!
In all honesty I have only ever used the chat room as it seemed more convenient to chat to people while they are there....however, I totally agree that you get out what you put in, and seeing as it's a marathon and not a sprint, I need to be more patient and post on the forum a lot more by the looks of it.
And two-4-more thankyou very much for your message, I couldn't have put it better myself (it was the first point of view that was right btw).
I am very comfortable with my sexuality, have no problem being naked with bi guys, gay guys, Tv's or anyone else, so come on all you couples and single females!!
Lastly, before you all get bored of reading my abnormally long reply, I just wanted to say thanks again, I really was losing heart with SH and the scene in general but you have all showed me that there are genuinely nice people out there to meet, so, group hug everyone....

Yeah maybe you're right de_sade, and don't worry I didn't take it the wrong way, I wouldn't have put the video on if I wasn't happy with everyone viewing it!
As for the anal thing, just not my cup of tea am afraid.
The trouble with dating sites markz is that as far as I'm aware the people on there are not interested in swinging so much as dating! But if I'm wrong let me know!!
After reading what most people have siad I have to agree, that as a couple who has placed adverts on here where by males just copy and paste the same reply regardless as to what the advert maybe asking for.
As some have already advised read the advert respond to what any couple maybe looking for not what you'd like, make the responce personal to them.
As for your profile it seems good enough to get you meets and as for ticking u aren't phased by a couple with a bi male it means your just happy to meet surely any rules would have been talked about prior to meeting up and everyone would be on the same wave length.
Get into the rooms be polite and get to socials where faces can be out to names
