So, since @Penwiggle set this group up there's been a lot of posting of personals, people asking questions and an ill-fated attempted to get a singles event off the ground.
What we want to know now is how you are progressing in your search for a partner!
We'd like members to answer the following questions:
* Have you contacted anyone whose ad interested you?
* If not, why not? was it shyness? Fear of rejection? Something else?
* Has anyone contacted you?
* What was the result?
* Have you met anyone, even for a nilla coffee, to see if you clicked?
* Have you arranged to meet anyone at a scene event such as a munch or club night?
* Have you become friends with anyone through the group?
* Have you started dating anyone?
This group can only really help if you are proactive so if there's anything else you think we could be doing (short of arranging an event) do post your ideas or memo us!

* Have you contacted anyone whose ad interested you? Yes * If not, why not? was it shyness? Fear of rejection? Something else? N/A * Has anyone contacted you? No * What was the result? Of the two people I contacted, one eventually replied - days later - after prodding, to say something along the lines of "maybe we'll bump into each other at a munch". The other didn't reply at all. * Have you met anyone, even for a nilla coffee, to see if you clicked? No * Have you arranged to meet anyone at a scene event such as a munch or club night? No * Have you become friends with anyone through the group? Sadly no. * Have you started dating anyone? Sort of but no one from this group or even from IC. I've encountered them on other sites. I'm a little disappointed that my efforts to be proactive met with such indifference. Even a "thanks but no thanks" would have been better than the responses I did get.

This response is from @Grasshopper - please reply to him if he interests you! * Have you contacted anyone whose ad interested you? Yes, a handful of people. * If not, why not? was it shyness? Fear of rejection? Something else? The reason why I haven't contacted more is because I figured it simply wouldn't work out, either because of geographical concerns or the fact I'm plain too young for them. * Has anyone contacted you? No. * What was the result? A couple of them I contacted "platonically", for want of a better word, and I still talk to them on occasion. The ones I didn't contact platonically, I've got nowhere with. * Have you met anyone, even for a nilla coffee, to see if you clicked? No. * Have you arranged to meet anyone at a scene event such as a munch or club night? No. * Have you become friends with anyone through the group? Yes, but not because of the group. * Have you started dating anyone? Not really. I hesitate to call what I have with this one person "dating", is all. Just because your single, doesn't mean you have to be alone. | |

* Have you contacted anyone whose ad interested you? Yes * If not, why not? was it shyness? Fear of rejection? Something else? I could contact more, but, I would have to agree with Grasshopper - distance and age are a handicap at times. * Has anyone contacted you? Yeah, but just to chat * What was the result? A chat, a couple of exchanges by memo. Thats it really * Have you met anyone, even for a nilla coffee, to see if you clicked? Nope * Have you arranged to meet anyone at a scene event such as a munch or club night? Nope * Have you become friends with anyone through the group? Nope * Have you started dating anyone? Not exactly. Became friends with someone vanilla, and have mantained a vanilla friendship with her. Thats it really. Wanted more but she isn't looking. I explained my kink and she seemed curious though. With this in mind, it's starting to feel like attending a couple of events is my 'last hope' - not a mentality I want to get into!

Your efforts so far * Have you contacted anyone whose ad interested you? Yes, a couple of people in Cardiff. * Has anyone contacted you? Yes. One or two close at hand, and some from much further away. * What was the result? Nothing much so far, but the one person I contacted from the actual personals forum said they were sorry, but they were leaving the site as they were tired of getting creepy and offensive messages (by which I can only hope they referred to previous would-be contacts ...). * Have you met anyone, even for a nilla coffee, to see if you clicked? Not yet. * Have you arranged to meet anyone at a scene event such as a munch or club night? Talked about Cardiff Munch with a few people, but it is not very conveniently located for people without cars, sadly. * Have you become friends with anyone through the group? For chat, yes. * Have you started dating anyone? No.

As moderator (Penwiggle here) I have had to ask more than one pair to leave the group because they were no longer single because they had met within the group. I'm not talking dozens, mind you, but a few. And I'm sure a few more have quietly slipped away as well. Or at least I hope. I'm just happy to see people are hooking up one way or another. Is there anything else I can do, any other ideas for making the forum better, please let me know. Thanks, Pen Just because your single, doesn't mean you have to be alone. | |
