DATING TIPS

      When using adult personal ads sites, try to remain patient. Many (but not all!) people don't check for replies or login to check for new ads more than once a week. (Some may take even longer.) Some personal ads may be setup and totally forgotten although we send regular reminders to the inactive members and then remove them if they don't show up. If you don't get a response after you contact someone, don't get discouraged. Give it some time before you give up on that person. Just remember to check for replies at least once or twice per week. Remember, by logging in every day you keep your profile 'fresh' and your chances of getting a private message from someone are better.

      Get a VIP membership and send many private messages. The regular members can reply to you without paying! You stand a better chance of getting a quicker answer from someone, if you send at least a dozen messages. If one or more of these don't work out, or you never get a reply, keep trying! Find more ads that interest you and answer them, too.

      If you don't get many replies to your personal ad, or answers to your messages, don't take it personally. Uploading a photo to go with your ad really helps with getting replies. Many of the profiles are passed just because they don't have a photo attached. Ads with photos draw up to 10 times (yes, 10 times!) more responses than ads without photos. If you can't find a decent picture of yourself, get one. Also, after you have written replies to a few personal ads, you will get better at it. Don't give up, a little effort on your part can really pay off.

      Use a valid email address (it is a good idea to verify yours now). We give you the option to receive email notification of new private messages. You don't want to make someone wait a month to
