I'm really quiet until i know someone we'll so getting past that first meet is always a hurdle .. nerves don't help!
Don't force it it'll be what it is .. hopefully he will come out of his shell

Give him time. If that’s his personality he may stay like that....who knows.
How nice you’ve both finally met though...exciting times xx

Thanks for the feedback, will take it all on the chin. Time to review my profile, add my own touches. Watch this space😉"

As I have also said many times in the past - location, location, location!
.... may also give population %

Those in a big city such as London may have an easier time due to % population and location.

As I am in a big city, many people live, work or are prepared to travel here, ?reasonable trains, roads (Shhh horrors of the M60)

Swansea is a stunning location, however I am am not sure of population or transport links. Somewhere like Birmingham very central, so a circle of possible locations to travel from ... Swansea and others, part of your circle... the sea!

" Tallone1966 -
I can be shy at times. I’m unsure how to reply or messages. I have tried being my normal self, get ignore. Tried being more risqué still get i*nored. I just wish I knew the best way in replying to adverts?"

Just be yourself, it takes time, if you pretend to be someone else, you will make contact with the incorrect person for you ... a waste of time on both of your parts.

Some people find the right person for them in a few days, others a lot longer ...
As with finding any new friend, partner, it all takes time even in these technological times!

Totally agree with the comments about auto generated profiles. Nobody is interested in forming a relationship with a word processor app.

I think ie dating is pretty much the same as normal dating meet up have lunch see if there's some form of connection then decide if you would like another lunch together . Maybe just a bit more discrete than normal ?

You’re not wrong, as soon as I see an automated profile I switch off and don’t bother to read it. All it says to me is that it shows how much effort they’re willing to put into an affair if they can’t even write a few lines expressing who they are and what they’re looking for.

@Tallone1966 I agree with Lillib you need to work on your profile, if someone sends me a message the first thing I do before replying is look at their profile, are they what I'm looking for, do I vaguely resemble the description in their "ideal partner" bit, and most importantly are we both looking for the same type of relationship (99% of the time that's a no!)

Those automatic IE profiles where you just fill in the blanks meaning it makes no sense will put a lot off ladies off.

I have never had an electric first meet with a guy but it can still go on to form a very long affair it has for me in the past so just give it time
