Are Nudist Singles Sites a Joke?
| Are nudist singles sites on the internet a joke? At least one of our group members thinks so. What do you think? | |
| Yes =) | |
| The're just sex sites really. | |
| I have never had any luck with any web dating site. Probably mostly my fault. I am on Single Nudist. I have 1 friend on the site. After reading comments on/in NHC I have been careful not the make the mistakes I see talked about. I know some people who have had luck on the net but the majority no. I would like to meet a nudist in my area so I don't send stuff to every one on the site. I think the textile sites are just as much sex sites as any other. When I get a messge from a 26 year old girl wearing a push up bra and a low cut top claiming to live in an obscure small town near me (BTW I am 61 years old) it just sends up a big red flag and flares. Also they want to communicate some other way than the site. As you can tell I am not a fan of any web dating site. However, if I remember correctly, someone in NHC met their spousre on Single Nudists. How is that for talking around a topic. Bottom line you have to be careful, but you need to be careful in any "dating" situation. I should have just said IT DEPENDS. | |
| It is a way for singles to at least locate potential friends of the opposite sex that have the same values as you do. I have met a couple of people on the site, and one in real. Yes, you have to be careful of whom you decide to exchange information with. My daughter met her husband on such a venue, and seems to be doing well. They have 10 years together. Like any other 'dating site', "let the buyer beware". | |
| Can't really judge the singles' sites as I have no first hand experience with them. The regular sites can be bad enough. NCH seems to be pretty good so far but I have also been on another that was not. Despite stating clearly in my profile there that I am married, monogamous, and straight I seemed to attract a lot of attention from some single gay men. | |
| I'm not really sure. I don't use them ... my wife won't let me! hehehe ;) | |
| Yup complete waste of time like 95% of the whole internet | |
| I'm single. I tried a few including " Single Nudist " which has the AANR seal of approval. I didn't have much luck though. I guess I'm just UN lovable. LOL JK | |
| Hey dkk... That was me. I met my husband on Single Nudist. I don't think the Single Nudist site is a joke nor a sex site as the jaundiced rabbitbunny seems to think, but many of the people on it are a joke. Bunch of lonely old men who who are set in their ways and just want to talk about nothing... there is the reason they are single. No matter what, you have to weed through the junk to get to the good stuff if you really are interested meeting somebody. Yes there are women who are hookers on these sites, even this one I am sure just as there are fake nudists. They are part of the junk. I don't know much about other nudist related single sites if there are any. I do know that if you are a female specifically looking for a person to meet that understands social nudity, DON'T Go to the textile oriented sites. Those are loaded with horndogs and idiots. I did that, said I was a nudist, and had 1,500+ men wanting to date me the first day...hmmmm. Go figure, now that is a joke! | |
| Hey ... but just think of all the free dinners and drinks you might have gotten! hahahaha Just kiddin' of course! ;) | |
| I personally enjoy being single and want to stay that way. I have many lady friends and I socialize with them often. I figured SN would be a great place to meet even MORE cool and pretty ladies. I have chatted with many ladies on that site. Most where cool. Some weren't so cool. I could've connected with some of them for sure. The truth is, I didn't find any of them appealing or attractive. | |
| Being married and monogamous, I've never looked into those sites. Being married and monogamous, I do notice that naturist women are much more comfortable around me than around single men. My suggestion to single men is to purge from the mind any intention to "hook up" or establish a relationship with the women you meet at a nudist venue (or elsewhere). Just go to enjoy the activities and the conversations. Offer to help with clean up. Get involved. Do that and you might find single women, few that they are at a nudist event, taking an interest in you. Follow this advice at non-nudist venues too. When a woman does take an interest in you, early on discuss naturism with her. If she will not go to a nudist event or beach with you, don't pursue the relationship further. | |
| I think what Triker said, "I personally enjoy being single and want to stay that way." "I figured SN would be a great place to meet even MORE cool and pretty ladies.", is what makes these sites a JOKE. I experienced this attitude from the majority of men on SingleNudist, WTF! If you want to just chat and BS about things you should do it on sites like NCH, not SN. I think most women go to thse sites in hopes of possibly meeting sombody for a possible reltionship. Afterall that is what they are intended for. There are a FEW good men on there (I got one) so ladies don't be totally discourage, just don't waste time on dummies like Triker. Most women can find guys, single or not, to talk to anywhere and anytime. Obviously men like Triker can't so they go to single sites thinking that these women are just aching to talk to them, how stupid is that. Then, if a woman decides not to give the player the time of day they are labeled as "not cool". I think it is the player like Triker that is "not cool". Maybe you should go on match.com to find single people to talk to... hey why not, there are single people there right. How dumb is that. | |
| Triker has changed his profile to private ... he has til tomorrow morning to change it back to public or ... YOU'RE GONE! ;) | |
| "IF"... something were to happen to my wife, I would most likely join a singles group at any of the nearby clubs. I would join a Single Nudists site but ... I suspect that I would be one of thousands of single guys on there looking for a female companion. Nonetheless, you don't know unless you try. First off, I'd be on there to find a female companion with the same interests, a travel partner, a friend and not go looking for a wife. My main reason would be to find a compatible companion that understands and enjoys nudism from the beginning. I don't want to start over again. Trying to find someone you're compatible with AND one that finds your nudist lifestyle agreeable to them ... may be difficult by being "set up" by friends. I think it's important to be upfront and not keep any secrets from those perspective companions ... so, I'd probably not get too many dates, right outta the gate, by telling them I'm a nudist. hahaha I'm fairly certain I wouldn't get married again. I think you can reach an age where it could complicate other things in your life. If you care for someone and they care for you, I'm sure you both can reach an understanding that you can be together, even live together and be monogamous with one another but not have to get married. I've truly found the love of my life and it would be almost impossible to replace her. Those that have found love on these sites ... I envy you for your ability to get back in the game. That kinda stuff scares me to death. I haven't dated in over 43 years! hahahahaha ;) | |
| One thing I have learned in my life is "Never say Never", just let things take their course naturally and all will be well. FireProf, I don't think I said go to these sites to find a wife, a compatible companion to enjoy life is plenty good enough. Keeping an open mind to what life lays in your path is part of that equation. I think I was saying that you should just be sincere and honest in whatever you do. To go on a singles site with the absolute attitude that you do not want to change that is not sincere to joining a singles site where people are actually hoping to find a companion. When I joined Single Nudist I was not expecting nor intending to find a husband, it just happened... naturally. | |
| @ - MichiganMe - I agree with. That always works best for me. That's good advice. A resort isn't now, or has ever been, a place to " pick up " ladies. | |
| @ - SunBunny - I found some of the ladies unappealing. The same way YOU yourself said that many of the guys were lonely old men with nothing to say, and that you had to weed thru the junk. That makes a person selective...not dumb. You figure that when you do it you're weeding, but when I do it, I'm being a player. Wake up. Calling ME names is what makes YOU dumb. | |
| I have tried several of the sites aimed at single and nudist individuals. First for my area the possibilities are limited. Being in my mid sixties I was looking at profiles from woman with in a 200 mile area. That totaled 26 women. I only heard from one and that individual we do communicate often. I do hope that at some time in the future we get to meet as we have so much life experiences in common. There are also “woman” on the site who present themselves as interested in me. First they were in the 25 to 35 age bracket. I did communicate with them to get a sense as to why they were interested in me. They first assure me that they preferred older men. Then after several weeks they had these scams where they needed money for some problem they were having. Another thing I noticed at the beginning the communications were crudely typed then after time they became well polished as if they had been written by different individuals. It would be nice to meet someone who shares my feelings. I would like to develop a healthy relationship. | |
| wHELp :<), I have to admit, I have used Single Dating sites and Single Nudist sites too. I've developed some deep friendships over the years. These sites for me have been an ice breaker per say. One out of the three marriages I've had, we met online. But happy to say that my ex-wives and deep friends are still that, very close deep friends. Attitude has contributed, along with open honest communication. | |
| Triker, I believe what I said was going on a Single's Site with no intention of sincerely wanting to possibly meet someone in the nudist community for a possible relationship was not honest or sincere and for that it was plain dumb. It is what made those sites a joke in my opinion. I didn't think called YOU dumb, but maybe I inadvertently did. I apoligize for that. What I do find interesting is that after I spoke to your comments as I honestly believed them to be, you almost immediately changed your profile to private. I am not sure why but I did find the timing interesting. FireProf, the group co-moderator, has ask you to change it back if you wanted to remain in this group since that is a requirement. You have ignored the request by your own choice which I again find interesting. As the owner of this group I have responsibilities and have made a commitment to each member to apply and adhere to the group rules. If you find me "dumb" for expressing my opinions I accept that, but allowing you to continue in the Absolute Naturists with wilfull contempt and disregard for the rules would definitely be dumb, which I do not believe I am. Goodbye and best wishes. | |
| Going onto these sites isn't about "finding a wife/husband," ... I surely didn't mean it in that context. ANY singles site doesn't give you the absolute ability to find a wife/husband, just companionship and the relationship goes from there. But for "ME" ... I think I can care for someone deeply enough and still not get married again. At the ripe ol' age of 60 ... I've become a bit rigid in my ways. I know what I like, who I am and what I want to do with the rest of my life. Even with dating another nudists, around the same age, I think they'd be set in their ways as well and think ... "we're pretty good together, but don't want to get married." For me, it's just as easy to be as caring, thoughtful, committed and loving to another person and not get married to prove that. I think I could live with a faithful companion ... that had a life beyond me and us, with her own friends that she could continue doing things they did before we were "married," and felt that maybe she couldn't do those things or shouldn't do those things because we are now legally bound together. hahaha Just my thought anyway. I did say ... I didn't think I'd get married again. I never said ... "never!" ;D | |
| There is no promise that one will find a spose. That is something that has to be cultivated as the relationship develops. I am just being open to the possibilities. | |
| @ dawn, could agree more with your thoughts there most sites have spammers etc why I say 95% of the internet is a waste of time and space | |
| Here is thinking outside the box..... why not draw up a proposal for AANR or the like to form their very own singles/dating site. If you are a member of any type of site like match or CM you know that you get very little in functionality, if you want to be able to email or whatever they almost always make you upgrade for X amount of money. Now this is the beauty AANR is a business I am sure always looking for new ways to generate income, So you would have a pretty bare bones (ok that made me giggle) "free membership. Such as to see how many members are x distance from you, how active the site is, cross section of male to female. Then the next level would be if you have a AANR membership you could get access to maybe 90% of the options or full access. If they still wanted to generate a bit more then for $10 a year or whatever you get full access. This would probably keep 99% of the fakes out, cause are you really going to get an AANR membership to just see some pictures and maybe chat up a few ladies? Probably not. It would also give a medium for singles interested in the lifestyle to find someone they fall in love with, or at least become friends with, without the overwhelming fear of what their true agenda is. It would also drive revenue to the governing body that keeps this way of life vibrant. Cons would be getting the word out, some people might still not want to get a membership to AANR, Pros would be for AANR generating income, possibly increasing memberships Other Pros you could have messages from AANR about sponsored activities (singles dances, meet and greets, resorts being more accepting of members even if they are single, etc), a more safe environment to meet singles to foster the nudist lifestyle, AANR regulating rules to better represent the lifestyle, less scammers ........ discuss | |
| I think the idea of having a single nudist dating group sponsored by the AANR is good. Having said that I met my present wife at high school and a few years later with a dating service many years before we met again and got married in 2008. I made a big mistake back in 1973 by not calling her back for another date and she will still remind me, all in good fun now. If only I had known she was a nudist then. | |
| I think if ur single and looking for companionship u should go to a bar if u want to meet a drunk, got to a church if u want to meet someone of the same faith. go to a biker rally if u want an "old lady" go to a single nudist site online or in person if u want to meet a person who likes social nudity lol. I believe in the "apple barrel" theory. no matter what it is, clergy, law inforcers, politicians, nudists, lawyer, doctors, old, young, there is alwas going to be a few bad apples. So u have to make ur own judments base on ur values and stay away from the others. | |
| All singles sites I've tried are a joke. SingleNudist.com is a sad joke. They keep giving me the same matches. Women from all over the world. Australia? India? Really? They have to go that far to find single nudist women? Match.com is also a joke. Women there seem to be looking for a sugar-daddy. | |
| I'm happily married and have never tryed any nudist dating site or textile dating site for that matter. My impression was that they were a joke but I was happily surprised that members here met their spouses on theses sites. Of course, as anywhere, one should be mindful who and how much you share but I guess common sense should be enough. |
