Screening..

November 21 2014

Reading all the positives on the Boys Behaving Badly thread, it seems to me that the majority of meets go pretty well. Which makes me ponder a couple of questions...How effective is your screening process? At what point have you said "nup, not for me" during the getting-to-know-you-via-message phase, or beyond that? Have you ever met with someone and immediately turned and run very fast in the opposite direction?

    I think my screening process is the main reason I have had only positive experiences from my time on RHP. I wish I could tell you that there's a tried and true technique that has worked so well for me, but honestly it just comes down to going with my gut. A few things I look for are an ability to write well and a demonstrably decent sense of humour (and an ability to understand mine). I also like when a man is interested but not fawning, flirtatious but not crude, confident but not arrogant. Things that will turn me off are if you tell me how much you want to fuck me before we even meet (seems desperate and like you have no standards), if you bore me with a litany of your outstanding personal qualities (I'd like to find them out for myself) and if you are unable or unwilling to commit to meeting up more than a day in advance. I like spontaneity but I'm a busy woman and if you can't make plans with me, I'll arrange to do something else with my free time. Does that answer your question at all? - Posted from rhpmobile

    I have never met someone I didn't know Id get on with. Thats the purpose of screening.... time and energy are too important to waste by not establishing suitability of time sharing in advance.

    It does answer my question. Like you, there are certain things I look for, which can be found both in profiles, and forum posts....basically, the way a person is able to communicate. An appreciation of my humour - which, I'll be the first to admit, is not to everyone's taste - goes a long way, but isn't easily determined, especially if I'm making the first contact. I can't say I've had a bad experience here thus far, in fact, I've been very pleasantly surprised, given the difficulty us single males can face. I think most people have developed their screening process to the degree it needs to be in order to work for them, whether by reading a profile or sniffing out bs through a series of messages and/or other communication, or even just looking at how the person presents themselves in their photos. While there are regular threads lamenting the treatment received from some members, I think it's generally confined to the initial stages of contact, and thus those people are weeded out and discarded early on.

    Many people will give you a multitude of advice. Some plausible, some not so. But....and I'm going to share a little secret that women would be outraged by if they knew I told you. The depths of compatibility will continue to plague the masses of men all over the world until they learn it. It's a trick so simple that unlocks a secret code inside a woman's brain that will have her totally mesmerised by you that they won't be able to help but to change their own personalities just to appease you.... Sounds too good to be true right?? And for some scams you're completely right....except this one. This one trick that is the trick of all tricks is going to be a phenomenon that will sweep the world like an army of street sweepers, which I'll get to in just a minute. But before I do I just want to clarify that I'm only sharing this with a select few guys, and you OP are one of them....there's no price you could ever expect me to qualify this secret with as to me it's priceless. A family heir if you will. Ok...the secret.... This secret that I'm about to share with you has been around for centuries. This same code has been passed on through my family and their descendants like genetic predisposition to awesomeness. It's a secret so powerful it's guaranteed to generate an enigma within you so desirable to women they can't resist you.... I'm getting there...honestly I am, but I'm honestly running out of useless lines to fill this post up with to be enticing....like a woman's lips that are nearing their limit of collagen to make poutier, more luscious duck faces.... And.... Without further ado I'll reveal my most powerful discovery in unlocking true masculine success in weeding out those that just don't make the cut, and honing in on all that that is feminine flooding to appease your godly gifts that is manly.... It is.... Errr....dang....where did I leave it?? Oh dang... Oh here it is... *clears throat and hawks up a lung oyster* "Buy a truck!!!" Lol :p - Posted from rhpmobile

    But i would prefer to talk about the positives and they are very much available to us all , personally it does not take long via a couple of messages to understand either way not for you ! Possible ! Or absolutely a big yes ! As most attitudes or characters of anyone is hard to diguise or deceive as something they are not mind you there is plenty that can and do , especially to a green online dater a more seasoned veteran can usually pick up on whats getting put down !! On one particular occasion i was on a short drive to meet a lady when i just had second thoughts so i pulled over at a servo and messaged her , look its a shit day and im not really feeling that we are or could be of a compatible combination ? Well 2 hrs later we are having one of the most intelectually stimulating conversations i have had ,so let us continue and we infact did meet that day and i discovered one of the most beautiful women i had met and we had a fantasic time together so you really do just never know and it pays to communicate always your feelings be it online or otherwise . - Posted from rhpmobile

    I will say "nup, not for me" during the getting-to-know-you-via-message phase, or beyond is when I receive "messages" or emails that clearly demonstrate " No respect ". If the "message" is from a man who is "cheating", that will cause me to say it too. Amy

    I can not say that I have a screening process, I go by gut feeling and its has a sort of sliding scale.It goes from "God why waste time lets get a room."down to,"Don't contact me again or I will block you!" This is not rating someone as a person, this is just how I feel about them. You then will be either Lover, Friend, or Stranger. Everyone starts in the middle, as i have learnt that first contact impressions should not by relied upon. Then they can move up or down. By the time we meet face to face the level has settled at where it most likely it will remain. But you never know, there have been a few that were close to "I am not interested", then we meet face to face, 10 minutes later we are looking for a room, and the other way around. There are a few don't that instantly move you to the bottom, these types are rare or maybe I don't attract them.Emotional black mail, hate that.Insincerity with instability, or insincerity with inconsistency. (this I struggle to define)Negativity outwardly or inwardly, If every thing you say is negative I dont want to go there.Chips on the shoulder. This just wont work, because its a guarantee that I will try and flick one off.Stupidity, cruelty, bigotry, or intolerance. Most of the time they all go hand in hand.Littering. I am not 100% sure why this one gets to me as its not the rubbish that I find disturbing, its the act, it shows a level of disrespect and contempt for social values and something rotten inside. I met a lady for lunch at the beach and she just tossed a sandwich wrapper, at that moment she went from attractive to pig dog ugly. There are a few things that move you straight to the top.Crazy as a loon like there is not tomorrow, as long as none of the above are detected.Intelligence, mmmmm kiss meYou are in the same sexual head space as me.You are a billionaire, have a private jet and demonstrate excessive generosity, I am willing to over look all other flaws. (Shallow I know, but I will learn to live with with my self)If you have all the above, I will be very forward and ask you to marry me. But it takes two to tango, so no matter how high you are on my scale, if a detect that your opinion of me differs too much, then I will just move on with a sigh, which on the most part is what happens. Apart from my don't I never consider meeting or communicating with anyone a waste of time. I read that a lot on these forums and it puzzles me why, are you all really that busy? If you are busy why are you looking, or am I just in the wrong head space? Sir StirI read all that and A truck? I must be missing something as the lol did not make me laugh.

    I thought everyone had a natural screening process when attracting a potential partner. In attraction the mental and physical are equally important. You might chat and there is no spark so you move on or there is a spark and you meet and there's no physical attraction so you move on. It's quite individual to all so any advice given would be fruitless. Some read between the lines easier than others...some are quite naive. Also I didn't realise being able to articulate a sentence is regarded as plagiarism... - Posted from rhpmobile

    Met once with a man, that as soon as I met him I knew, that was very early on in my journey..... Now I have an excellent screening process and yes that's why I've can't complain about the men/couples I've met. I'm a lover of an well constructed, interesting profile, then if it's topped with a well written first message and the conversation flowing from there. Other things I look for, we have similar interests, they can keep me interested, they have alluring/interesting pictures and if I find myself wanting to know more about that person. The chances are I'm going to meet with you, I'm going to like you and we are going to get on, but it doesn't mean I'm going to fuck you, couldn't possibly know that until we meet.....

    What you want out of a meeting is paramount to your process of weeding out. I have no problems with graphic talk, really its just down to the individual person. Some hot spunky funny good looking guy can get away with things that a fat older , comb over guy cant get away with. Lets face it, it the men are the plants and the women are the gardener here, with a big set of clippers. One false move and your nuts go in the recycled bin. I just do not waste time, I do not have enough of it. I am not looking for a date so the social banter or the take me out to dinner and seduce me is not on my list. Neither is whisper on my ear and full it full of I love you long time. I do not do the ten thousand messages, a few will do, then a couple of texts then a phone call. If you invest to much time in the cyber interaction, then the chemistry is not there and you let the other person down and yourself. Every have that sound track in your head of vava va vooom, thinking the connection is there and then you walk into the coffee shop or what ever and think, fuck I think I will take my tea in a take away cup. My needs are perhaps not like most of the women here, so its short and sweet for me. However I have lovers on this site that I have had for three years, so I must be doing something right. I also like a one night stand( dare I say it) because for me a bit of new stuff is always stimulating on the odd occasion. I try to screen out guys who live at home with mum, are living with a bunch of testosterone flat mates or to far from me. I do not like to take the long horny drive for a five minute bonk in the back of a ute. Someone local is my preference but one that will pretend they never saw me in their life if we cross paths in public. I stay clear of the ten thousand text people. Or people that expect me to fill out a pop quiz of what I like. And the ones that say I am driving past your town in ten minutes can you be on the side of the road waving your panties at the traffic so I know its you.I just cant do that, the police have already warned me I am a traffic hazard. Especially if my Bridget Jones bloomers break free in the wind and cover the windscreen of a car.

Your words and actions will tell me plenty about you. So ladies' its not just a female thing, you too are being screened...

    I am so on the same page with you and people that litter. Along with how a person treats their pet, and if they pick up after said pet. Dog Poo left around will see steam coming out of my head. I have been known to chase after dog owners, and hand them a bag and say very sweetly, you man not have noticed but your great dane( that was attached to your lead a the time) did a dump that I cant jump over, so you should have bought a bigger bag or at least A bag. We all get caught now and again, because the process on the internet is flawed in many ways. But once you meet the person face to face, its a tad easier too just walk away. Though not always. Some of you might have your fave stalkers, both men and women are faced with these people at times. I once had coffee with a guy I thought was charming, articulate, well presented. When he ask me outright what did I think, I hesitated a little and said not sure yet really. well he turned from Mr Nice guy to a right prick in ten seconds. He then went from Mr nice to Mr WTF as he walked with me to my car. Then he followed me beeping his horn at me. I had to drive away from where I lived and then did some driving from out of some police movie to make sure he was well way from where I lived. whoda thunk that not getting a root from a saggy baggy , old lady would cause so much angst?

    If your screening process gives you 100% success is that really getting it right? Could there have been one, two or more that might have worked? Sure it depends on what you are looking for and I guess this is more for the people that swing and have/want multiple partners. I'm not a swinger so I'm simply curious what opinions are on that side?

    Well good points if your opening line in message is not hey sexy would you like to hook up sometime. If the message is written well within reason, the flow of conversation is good. They can answer some basic questions with out using the old need to say I have to protect my privacy. As that mostly just makes me think your being dishonest from the start. There is laughter in the conversation and I find something appealing to me in the pics that aren't cock shots. Oh and if I feel like it would be worth the effort to go out of my way, make time and put myself out there. If I'm not sure I always suggest coming to the next social meet and greet night. I would say that 95% of those are always a no show at the meets. To me if you can't do that well they were just interested in excuse the pun " just wanted to get they cock wet". If I and another are going to fwb then we will actually have to friends first. Then that's when the fun begins.

    I do it with a ruler. OMG in all seriousness my screen process sux. I have the most funny meets - this one time I had to be rescued from down South - I didn't even know where I was. I had chatted to him on a Vanilla site and I flew down from up North to meet him (Some 1700k's away) . He picked me up from the airport and we went to his apartment down in south. It was one of those meets where you wake up in the morning thinking to yourself, you're a bloody idiot. Anyway he went off to work in the morning (I was suppose to stay for the long weekend) and I jumped into to the chat room asking for help.... I am lost. I then rang him and said this isn't going to work. I do some crazy shit - I know. Life is for exploring and taking risks. I do look back and laugh at the situations I get myself into.

    Good advice for everyoneTo see if a profile image is a fake just right click on the image and select "copy image url" then go to www google com slash images. Click on the camera icon on the right of the of the search bar and past the image url and hit search. The search will show all the images it knows about, if it a fake and copied from the net there will be more than one result from a variety of sites. Some people use their photo on more than one dating site so they will come on as well. It will not work for R rated images. I hate fake profiles and if I find a profile and the profile image is splattered over a dozen commercial/porn sites I always report the profile to RHP by using the "report abuse" link at the bottom of every RHP page. It is a crime to use someone else's image, or impersonate another person. Fake and miss leading profiles spoil it for everyone. One last bit of advice.Google image search will show similar images. If you use an image that is part of set there is a good chance that the image search can lead someone straight to sites where you have posted other images from the same set. If you value your privacy on RHP you SHOULD do an image search of your own images just to make sure that you have not given everyone a path straight to you face book or similar page.

If I don't have the right vibe I won't go through to meet. if the sex is unfulfilling I'm happy to try a couple of more times to see if it improves but if it doesn't then I don't repeat. obviously the next step then once comfortable is the kinky fuckery and exploring...woo hoo!

I love the girls that said, thanks, when some guy complimented them on their fake picture. Brings a tear to my eye its so funny. Its also a bit sad even when given evidence, some poor people still do not want to believe what is right in front of them. I have to check out what you said, as I am careless with my images. I think once a person used a picture of one of my daughters friends up here, taken off a burlesque site. I nearly called her, but they left the site. I wonder if you can take legal action, if you find someone has used your picture to represent themselves on a sex site? You would think RHP could actually do that before they allowed a picture up? That would cut out a lot of fake profiles pictures. Lets see how many pictures disappear after this revelation. I have my beady eye on one I know is fake.

I was a bit worried, then I called his bluff. (Of course I could of blocked him but he had said some things whereby I thought he might of known where I lived/worked. I set up a meet and fucked the devil out of him - Not heard from him since apart from two txt messages and nothing since - they were a simple :-) Was it a stupid move by me - umm YEP.

I have a short fuse for those that in my lofty view are fools. I can be as mean as cat shit, to the select few on my list of morons. But I am on a few lists myself, and consider I am in good company if I am on the shit list of some. Yes, it smarts online or offline at times. Depending how your feeling offline, depending on who is saying it and its worse when a keyboard coward is at you. I always offer to meet face to face with people that are having a go. So far I hear nothing but crickets , many a time I have offered my number but no, they prefer to type away rather than be grown up about disagreements. Except for some exceptional people, like European Bliss , who when we had a wide difference of opinion she called me and she gave me a much better understanding by talking. Make friends offline. Organise to meet up with others that you might find you would enjoy spending time having a chat over coffee. Take a break if they get to you, the mean girls and just say to yourself. That attitude I would not like in my life offline, so I shall brush pasts that persons posts and block them. Blocking is your friend, but if you block them. they often get their herd of brown noses to check your profile out, over and over and over and zzzzzzz till I block that as well. Big hugs and do not let the little people , diminish your enjoyment of RHP. It is after all supposed to be fun.

    Drives me nuts....just a peculiar quirk of mine...if people are posting others'words as if they are their own then they are misrepresenting themselves.. How hard is it to credit the author... If you don't know who said it..say so...Well Stirry,I googled,I Binged and dammed if I could catch you out...tin eye didn't work either.... Maybe I should Tweet out your authorial feat :-) xxFreya

    Screening with google, tin eye etc is only a last resort and shouldn't be totally relied upon as your primary method.. You're reading their profile and (perhaps) emailing these people.... with a view to see IF they're suitable to meet.Just because you're engaging in conversation, doesn't make the game of Compatible Bodyparts a fait accompli for me. Trust the gut instinct.... and use the other tools if that instinct raises warning flags, and put the puzzle pieces together. If in doubt..... they miss out. DG
