  You asked about the M to F ratio on here. Males far outnumber females and couples. You will also find that many “females “ and “couples” are not what they appear to be, and so the Male to Female ratio is skewed even further. Our advice is to be polite, non pushy and respectful when it comes to the manner in which you approach females / couples on here. Most of us (the genuine ones) have received a lot of disrespectful, pushy and offensive messsges from some of the predators on here, as a result of which we might tend to judge and tar all single males with the same brush, initially, until we have got to know them a little better. Your first few opening lines (in a message) are therefore very important if you are going to make a good first impression. Always remember, that males on here, are in the vast majority and that as a result of this you will have a lot of competition on here. Good luck with your search . - Posted from rhpmobile

  Hey there Mate. I agree with Swingalingson that as a single male it can be a jungle out there. I would not know the actual statistics, but I would presume that the ratio is probably about 10 males to 1 female. So yes, if you want any results, then you have to put some effort into it. Most of the single females I know have received about 150-300 messages when they first joined depending on their profile and it eases off with time, so your messages do need to stand out. But Hey its not all Doom and Gloom. I also joined about two and a half years ago after coming out of a long term relationship and I have had some great experiences. I have also met a stunning lady on here who makes me feel valued and I feel very fortunate for that. All the best on your journey. Juxone - Posted from rhpmobile

  To see the many, convoluted, unofficial ''Code Of Conduct'' terms for single men on here. Prepare to have your mind warped. You have blurred out the face of a woman in your profile pic, this will draw some ire just for starters - some people may assume she is your partner and you are going behind her back, which apparently is not okay for men (women can do the same with men and are considered cool somehow). The fact that you have a face pic though is good, shows more honesty. If you listen to profile critiques you will be forever changing your profile back and forth, so I would just type it how it feels right and just leave it. I don't know the stats but I believe the ration of men to women on here is about 10:1, so yes competition is fierce. I tired of sending messages quite some time ago, these days I will respond to any messages or flirts sent to me but that is it, and even then that ends in nothing. You may hear from men who have the most amazing success on here, but I always have been and will continue to be underwhelmed by it all. A lot of time wasted in the first year or so for me, nowadays I just waste time in the forums. Best of luck in your search.

  I think there's nothing wrong with your profile. You've taken the time to actually write something substantial, so to me, you're already ahead of the game. But then, I'm jaded by other 'dating' sites where "I'll fill this out later" is common on profiles. I'm rather new here myself (e.g. I've no idea how long ago you posted this because I only use the phone app and I can't see dates of forum posts). I've just put up a semi-face picture and noticed suddenly I have more people looking at my profile, so pics are definitely worth it (I have regular pics in my PG that I share if asked). For me personally, as it says in my profile, I'll try to respond to any message I get, even if the person doesn't meet what I'm looking for. I still look at their profiles too. You never know...you just might come across some random person who took a chance to message you and then you hit it off. I also do try to reply to flirts (and yes, I generally look at their profiles too) but if I don't have much time and I have a backlog of flirts, I might just go by what they've said in the flirt to catch my attention and decide on the fly. I haven't got around to flirting or sending messages to members such as yourself because quite frankly I haven't needed to - they come to me so why should I worry? I'm hesitant to upgrade anyway though due to previous experience so if they can message me I do appreciate it. Sorry for the long convoluted reply, but seems you asked for a female perspective, and the forums are new to me. Good luck 😊 - Posted from rhpmobile
