I'm not sure what it is. I have had a few responses to my messages. I haven't had very many to initiate the messages with me nor have anyone to ask me out on here. I don't think it's you, specifically.

Maybe people like to be able to have interaction with others and be able to not have it so personable.

A pic would surely help rainboe. I know we don't want to be judged only by how we look but men really are visual creatures as several have stated in their posts.

thats true actually I had no emails until I put my picture up then I had loads. I think a picture makes it easier to know whether your going to connect with somebody.

Yup we like pics.

Some aren't of us aren't nice, this is a place like any other...all kinds pass through.

By all means jump into the threads and express yourself.

Raiboe671,

A picture, confidence, determination, patience...

Doesn't happen overnight. Doesn't happen with the first email or even the hundreth email you send. It happens when it's time.

Post in forums a little to make yourself known and show some of your personality. (Again, confidence)

Relax

Just have fun, the rest will come if/when it does.

Just like being around people in a social setting, eventually you may hit it off with someone and go from there. If it doesn't, at least you can say you had a little fun!

At the very worst, you could end up making some friends, and that's a pretty good deal in itself.

Good luck!

I'm a "newby" too, i've had a little search but there is noone in my area at all even if i search 18-99 yrs of age. I've been chatting to people in other countries which is great.

had a couple of messages from weirdo's sent a couple of flowers and had replies, so my message to you is send some flowers my love.

Though i wouldn't say i'm necessarily new (2 months now) I have begun to think that because people feel this type of thing really doesn't work (ie: fake pics, fake identities, scammers..etc etc) and perhaps with good reason...they do not put a real effort into "meeting" people...it seems to be more of a casual hang out...and the forums?..the absolute best...and because i spend so much time on here now...i very rarely even do people search any more...i just enjoy the company of those i've found on the forums!!

Hard to be seen if you´re not...there´s like millions of profiles...why should anyone see mine if I don´t show myself? *puts the pants back on...just in case*

Having said that...I do get some attention. Apperently there are ladies that wants their personal Swedish Chef from the Muppet Show. Freaky... LOL
