Shouldn't this site be more of a community than anything else?

Shouldn't this site be more of a community than anything else?


We're all here for one reason or another, to find a partner, to fulfill a fantasy, to explore our deepest desires or just to communicate with like minded people. What I mostly find is that it's not that easy to communicate with others. Emails go unreplied, Instant messages go unanswered or ignored or someone that you are communicating with no longer responds to your messages. Yes, I understand that not everyone is interested in a certain individual, like myself, I ignore messages from other guys flirting with me, I'm just not into guys. But, wouldn't it be so much nicer if everyone could get on here and say, Hello! Ask how someone's day is going, take a little interest in the daily events of someone's day and take a little time to get to know someone, if even just to say, Hi. We could make this the adult time facebook without the politics, religion or drama...lol. A place were friends in your friends list actually communicate back and forth instead of just seeing how many friends you can acquire. After all, we all have one thing in common...we're all here because we like a little naughtiness in our lives.

Be sure to comment and let everyone know your thoughts on this subject.

Thanks and have a great day!

For men, the issue of not getting a response from women has to do with a few things. The first being that many of the women on here are prostitutes. Then there are the scammers. One big issue I find is that the men on here are very immature and disrespectful. See this from a women's perspective. Being bombarded incessantly with bullshit makes us put up a wall. Then we refuse to answer any communications from people who want to be referred to as "men". The actual real women on here become very selective in who they communicate with because we don't want our time to be wasted.

And to answer your question, this is a community. It's just not turning out to be the community that you want it to be.

I can truly understand your point of view and I've thought about that perspective too when it comes to the way certain men act. As for there being a lot of scammers on here, yes, I do know that and I can usually tell by the way their profile is written. And, thanks for sharing your perspective.

As I wrote in a blog quite a few years ago Unexpected Relationships on A F F for many of us A F F is a community. We make all kinds of friends and develop different types of relationships. Though I haven't been very active in the last few years, I still keep in touch with people I first encountered here 11 years ago. As a matter of fact, a group of local "old timers", who used to hang out together on a regular basis are getting together next month.

So it is possible, my advice is to stay close to home if you are actually wanting to meet. Look for local groups, chatrooms and individuals. Read and respond to bloggers who live in your immediate area. Keep in mind that all too often people appear to be signed in and are not, so when you don't get a response on IM it may be because the person is not there. As for emailing, read profiles carefully. Only contact people who are looking for someone like you or what you have to offer. And, though you appear to have a very nice cock, when contacting someone you are interested in, include a face pic or something a little less out there...way out there in your case

Thanks, tresennui. I wouldn't say that I would be interested in meeting everyone that I reach out to and try to chat with. Sometimes it's just nice to get to know someone that you might have something in common with or even learn a new perspective with something that you're curious about. But, thanks for your insight.

Shouldn't this site be more of a community than anything else? ... No. Probably the closest you're going to get to "Community" on here, are the people you've got listed as "Friends" and "Friends albums" and "Groups".

Would you try to reach out to everyone at the public library, you're all in there to find information or a book? No , of course you wouldn't. They'd look at you funny. Oh sure maybe somebody might respond well enough. But for the most part you'd just be received as a mental patient. So here, on a website, people are many times more to be non-receptive to that neighborly idealism.

Talk to customer service for that. They get paid to be cordial.

What I mostly find is that it's not that easy to communicate with others. ... They don't want to "Communicate".

But, wouldn't it be so much nicer if everyone could get on here and say, Hello! ... No. Because "Hello", on here, or even in a bar/lounge/club is a pretext to sexual interest. Too many people are also socially inept, and potentially if you say "Hello" to them, they then glom onto you like lint, and that get's tiresome.

Ask how someone's day is going, take a little interest in the daily events of someone's day and take a little time to get to know someone, if even just to say, Hi. ... No, a bad idea.


We could make this the adult time facebook without the politics, religion or drama...lol.
... Never would that happen.

A place were friends in your friends list actually communicate back and forth instead of just seeing how many friends you can acquire. ... Rooky mistake. They're not actually your friends if you've never met them organically and spent time with them.

Well thought out response, quite an interesting take and for the most part I'd have to say I would agree.

Wouldn't that be really cool.
If we didn't have people judging us there
would be no need for assuming anything.
You just have to find out where you stand.
Communal is the idea of everyone working
together in order to establish common ground
in thoughts and Ideas and what works best
for the community as a whole.

Sex is an individual thing and is based on
individual thoughts and Ideas.Actually it's wants and
desires.That decision is left entirely up
to the individual who has the ultimate say.
I almost said needs!That was close!

Using more than all the road!

Great blog here and yes everyone should be nice to each other and be respectful of each other. There are also a lot of fakes on the site, and some members pretending to be something they aren't and we all have to be mindful of that.

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..

Thanks, Tmptrzz and I definitely agree with you.

I do my best to blog happy, I also do my best to answer to everyone. emails or here. I like the interaction with people, cause I am a people's person in real life. but yes, some people can get judgmental, I know that very well, it had happen to me on a very large scale. but this is the internet, is impossible to only interact with people that we like or understand us. as long I am not doing anything wrong to anyone, I am good with that, how others react or behave that is their issue, and if I don't like it, I just keep my distance from them. I have no problem separating myself from the bad or trouble seeds.

Thanks for your comment, nicelipss66. I definitely have to agree with you, you're one of the good ones on here and this site needs more people with your out going personality.
