Posting on Yahoo messenger

[Fantasy01]

We are thinking of posting our sexual wants and desires on yahoo messenger...is it worth it and is it advisable....just wondering..

I would think that would depend on how much "exposure" you'd like. We only use yahoo messenger for the chat feature. Our main ad is posted on swinglifestyle.com.

In our experience Yahoo brings out the crazies and a world full of spammers!

Good luck, let us know how it goes, ok?

Since you and your new wife are just starting out and haven't swung with anyone yet, I think you'd be better off contacting others (and being contacted by others) through the profile you newly created on SLS.

The profiles at Yahoo are 99.999% bullshit. It would be difficult for anybody to be able to pick you out as real people from among all of the advertisers who are selling sex. Posting also provides a 101% guarantee of earning you a life-time supply of junk e-mail. And those are the good points.

Don't do it. Find another avenue to express yourselves, try one of the swinger sites like SLS or swappernet.

Even if your only a free member there you'll have more privacy and more protection from the spammers and ghetto people.

Patience, grasshopper! It's only been about a week since you put up your sls profile. We didn't get a ton of emails either, at first. Heck, we still don't, but we've found that going to meet & greets and parties works out better for us anyway. You can meet several couples in an evening without the "pressure" of a date, and if you don't hit it off with the couple you're talking to, you can move on right away.

That said, I would recommend two adjustements to your profile. You mention your weights twice. To me, that suggests negativity and perhaps a lack of confidence. You already have your weights listed in the height/weight portion of the profile, and most folks can figure out the general proportions for themselves. Also, a few pictures of you both would be a tremendous help to anyone checking out your profile. G-rated photos are fine, even with your faces blocked.

You say in your profile you are seeking a "long lasting relationship." There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, but it WILL take time.

If you're interested in a more in-depth analysis of your profile, or want a second opinoin, feel free to hop over to the Couple's Profile Review thread and see what others have to say: http://swingersboard.com/forums/show...=32232&page=15

Best of luck to ya'll!

This in part is related to your thread about not wanting to picture share.

We haven't seen that many profiles in our area of folks in your age range, but maybe your area is different. Not that you can do anything about your age, but you may be outside of some folks parameters.

Also, you do not have any pictures posted. If there are folks that are looking for you...there is the option on SLS to only search for members with pictures posted. Possibly compatible folks are probably passing you by because of this.

Added to the reticence shown in the other thread of even sending a picture...well if we were interested, you were interested, but then wouldn't even send us a pic so that we can pick you out of the crowd...we would wonder wtf you are hiding. Take some flattering pics of the both of you a post 'em up. If you are afraid of 'looking too old', etc...um I'm not trying to be insensitive here...but you list your age as 65 on your profile, your wife at 58...you aren't exactly spring chickens, it's not like people that contact you are going to expect you to look like a 25 year old hardbody.

Agreed with other posters on the sheer amount of fakes, advertisments, and junk mail on the Yahoo ads.

Dunno if anyone has mentioned it is early and I am still working on first cup o joe so bare with me ,
Yahoo is going Grated, no more adult Profiles. That being said we had tried that route in the past and I can tell you the Spammer folks have the search engine, you will/would have had a very hard time getting it to bring you up, much less anyone of "intrest" to you. Even 90% of the Yahoo groups are infected with Spammers, no one wants to seem to moderate them to keep out the unwated.
JMHO

There's alot of good advice here already.

Yahoo profiles are the absolute worst way to get what you're looking for.

Since you state that you are looking for a long term relationship, I recommend reading the Polyamory forum here for links to sites more geared to what you're looking for.

Good luck!

I had some guy contact me on Yahoo chat today. He saw our profile on
AFF I think. He wouldn't be specific where he saw it but said he had to
pay to contact us through the site.I told him to contact us through the
site that he saw our profile on and then MAYBE we would be interested in
talking to him. He new we were Looking for a playmate and thought he would suffice.
