Views, Flirts, and Hotlist...?

Views, Flirts, and Hotlist...?

What does it mean to you?

VIEWS:

Views are nice. They kinda validate your little thumbnail. I know, it's not healthy to seek validation from the outside, blah, blah, blah... sure, I've read a psychology book too. But, the reality is: We're all a little exhibitionary here! And part of that is being noticed.

So, views are nice... but nothing to get worked up about... I mean it could have been an accidental click, right?



FLIRTS:

Ok, so now we're getting somewhere... yes, no or maybe? I dunno. I've gotten flirts, sent off an email, and waited... Huh? are those cobwebs on my keyboard?



But, I've also given flirts to get views, and see if she will flirt back. Then, maybe I'll send an email. Now I'm ok with the English language, try to read most of the profile {guy ADHD}, look at the pictures {Love the panty shots }, and I even try to match the tone of the profile.

The responses seem random... I could probably just put in an ellipsis... and get the same response ratio. But I probably couldn't do that. I'd rather try to communicate in some way. Now, I know standard members have limited responses.

That's for the ladies.

I know the guys don't have to worry about limited responses. Ha ha ha. Although if I don't pay attention and respond to fake profiles. I can lose legitimate responses in the mix.

So, my question is. Do you get that many emails that you lose track? And, is a flirt an invitation to send an email and initiate a conversation?

HOTLIST:

Are we getting somewhere here? Or, is it just a way to track your voyeuristic impulses?

I usually browse a little, hotlist a few profiles, and go back later to check the stars. Which I must say make for an interesting reality check. Fuck, I'm getting old.



But not old enough for some of the older women?

How do you use your hotlist? Is it for tracking hot members? Or do you use it to remember something?

So, what does it all mean to you?

Care to share?

Just Curious,

~G

I get many emails and now that I am standard again..I only get 5 emails a day to send back. So, am I picky to who I reply back? YES, you have to basically catch my attention and try and be average intelligent. The.. I love your tits...to lets fuck emails get nothing but a giggle from me in my head. If you read my profile and put thought into saying something to me I send a return email.

As for flirts....weekends I get alot but I look at them everyday just incase someone thumbnail stands out and has a clever saying in some way.

I am very passionate and I love poems...I think that is why I found your blog...after I read your blog..then I read profile...then I went back to look at your pics.

I use my hotlist to see if they are online or camming. I watch cams during the day and if it is someone I like to watch ..I dont want to miss them when they are on..also, I use it to remember something that might have jumped out when I read a profile~

You cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved.

Interesting...

Thanks for the feedback!

[apropos of nothing in particular...]
[this part is just thinking out loud]

Now, I just need to figure out if I'm hot or not. And if that is a plus, or a minus on this site. Something tells me that not so hot guys get better action because they make the women feel prettier.

And I could be totally in "denial/rationalization/fantasy land" here. But I tend to think that some of the women here are more afraid to get together with a guy if he is in better shape than them... which is silly because if you ask any guy, he'll tell it is more about how a woman treats us than how she looks... Oh, now I get it... [where's the lightbulb smiley?]

I don't kiss enough ass...

Oh well, at least I can cam...

Thanks! Hopefully anyone who reads this will benefit from the answers here.

Hotlists are actually the standard males form of flirts. Seeing that Affairlook allows standard members to hotlist up to 200 women. That's a lot... but, a lot of guys here still are not getting much attention. Playing the numbers game is a great temptation.

Most guys know there is an uneven ratio of men to women here. And, us guys can come up with some pretty stupid ideas that actually sound wonderful inside our heads. And yet, the implementation of said plans, are often our undoing.



Luckily, there are limits to how much damage we can do to ourselves in the beginning. It's actually what got me to start playing on the web cam. One, I couldn't send out that much email. And two, I just know it is better to attract rather than pursue. And I've found that this place is more enjoyable as a brief escape every now and then as opposed to being a means to an end.

Don't get me wrong. I still want to "hook up with the hot babes". But, the reality is: My body could not possibly keep up with the desires that flit through my mind on a regular basis. Not to mention that whole going to work everyday thing...

ooops... tangent...

Heh, What I mean is; Thank you for the response.



Really... thank you all for letting us guys know what's up! Maybe you haven't noticed, but we don't always do well with hints.

Why just the other day I was... errr, next blog...

Ha ha ha... you're too kind. But, I did meet a couple women who were a few years older than me who felt my attention was unwarranted because I "needed someone younger"? Their words, not mine...

I dunno... I guess I'll just have to muddle through it...
