So how do you get to know people you say? You could do everything from behind your computer screen, and some of that is really necessary and helpful, but eventually you are going to have to take a chance and leave your house. So lets start online. Depending on what exactly you are looking for, your profile is key. FILL IT OUT! If you will not take the time to fill out your profile, than it gives the impression that you are not actually serious about this. For the single guys, I have yet to meet or chat with a lady who is impressed with a profile with only a dick pic, or no pics at all. I am sure there are some out there that don't care one way or another, but from my limited experience, and personal preference, you need to put a little more effort into it. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with showing what you got, but not as the only pic and/or your profile pic. For those of you worried about "privacy", that throws up a red cheater/fake profile flag every time. Unless you are covered in tattoos that can ID you, there is very little chance that a co-worker will recognize your butt :s For the couples, if all there is on your profile is dick pics that also makes one wonder, especially paired with a lot of "Prefer not to say" on your bio. Do you really prefer not to disclose your hair colour? Of course it is your profile and you can do what you like, this is based upon my preferences and the observations I have made so far. We have only been in the lifestyle for about 8 months at this point, 6 of those on LesbianPersonals, so I am hardly an expert, but we get compliments on our profile pretty much daily, and it has garnered enough attention to earn us a free gold membership for a year after only 3 months, so we must be doing something right

So you have filled out your profile, have taken some naughty, or not, pics and posted them, now what? For us the first month was pretty busy so we just checked out other profiles, sent and answered emails and used IM (when it was working :s). Eventually that will slow down, but don't wait until then, go to your local chatroom as soon as you can. For the most part this is where the "real" people are, and it is a great place to do the networking necessary to take that next step, leaving the house and meeting people. You can do this without the chat room, we did, but that was like a baptism by fire, it definitely would have been easier if we had spent time in the chatroom first, which we did before we tried the other LS clubs/dances in our region. LS clubs are not for everyone, but they are a great way to meet other swingers in a no pressure, no judgement, group setting. If you are not into music, dancing, or large crowds, most clubs also hold periodic coffee meets. Even if you are not a club person, chatrooms can be good way to get some clue about someone you are interested in, or find someone who interests you. Participation is not required, though it is encouraged. In fact there are usually more lurkers than chatters at any given time lol Topics vary, and though it can get naughty, for the most part it is just a bunch of like-minded individuals talking about everyday stuff. You can be uncivil if you choose, but that will just get you "ignored" and defeat the purpose of being in the chat room. But that works both ways, you also have the option to ignore anyone who is being rude etc, you will no longer see anything they post and vice versa. Now it is time to turn off the computer and actually meet some people, next time

Excellent information for those who are new to the site. I found chat the best way to interact with those in my area and with my chatty nature, found it easy to get involved in the conversations.

I agree that filling out your profile is essential to meeting people who interests you. It also gives those interested in you some information about who you are and what you want. I just wish more would actually read them.
