Hi all, ive been using some of these sights for about a year now and think i have only really chatted to 2 guys that dont just want to cyber! But i am one of these people that try and think not all of them are the same, am i wrong? Am eager to be proved wrong.
So what do they really want??

I don’t know if you’ll get many responses to this question here, as this has been discussed ad naseum in various threads on the forum recently.

Being a gentleman (after a fashion), I shall reply anyway. Speaking for myself, I don’t want cyber (I want the real thing ).

I think you need to ask yourself what you want, and then find someone who fulfils the criteria, rather than asking what 'men' want. Contrary to belief, ‘men’ (like women) can’t all be tarred with the same brush. If you really want to find out what ‘men’ want, you need to ask them individually – and if some of them say they want cyber, well, at least you got your answer from the person concerned.

I want a +1 on my post count.

No, I am a man after all so i shall answer your question.

I don't expect anything really. A reply to one of my silly questions or comments would be nice but i know those are few and far between so i just come here to the forums and mingle instead. I share DH's opinion in that i don't want cyber but prefer the real thing.

Don't leave DH. I was just getting use to your banter that is straight forward and from the hip.

I truly believe you get what you pay for in this world ............... and as this is a free site, there will be alot of people, both men and women just after a bit of 'extra curricula' fun that is .................. obviously there are exceptions to the rule .......... but as has been said before, there are alot of 'window shoppers' on free dating sites. I agree with the lovely Stuart though, if you know all they want is 'cyber' then move on to the next ........... or maybe go on to a site that you have to pay for ..... might be more successful there ..........

I've told you before, you're NOT getting those Galaxy Minstrels on my desk Very Happy

I'm not so sure pay-for dating sites are that much different. On the whole you just have the same cross-section of people - the difference being they're prepared to use their plastic to indulge in their foibles. Being prepared to spend money on dating, or findng the partner you're looking, for doesn't mean the people on a pay-for site are any different, they've just got a credit or debit card.

I'm probably not the best person to answer this one, but freedom of speech and all that....

What I want, I suppose is entertainment, that comes in all shapes and sizes, (especially for me). I don't think you can really expect too great a things from one of these sites, that way you are never disappointed, and quite often pleased with the results.
As for the cyber-love thing, not really sure what the benefits are of that (finger excercise?).

Yeh, and don’t ya just hate the sticky keyboard afterwards?

I like the “you are never disappointed” bit too – my motto is “if you have no expectations, you won’t be disappointed” Damn, I’m gonna go and put that on my profile (just before the bit about the pink bicycle Very Happy )

In response to your first question, the guys who are relatively normal and nice on this site are very quick to become disenfranchised. Their relatively genuwine enquiries are swiftly met with distain due to the "tarnishing" which goes on. This leaves only the tossers who don't understand the phrase "I don't want cyber" left to mull around.

Although, I will say this... it's not just the guys who are cyber freaks. I've had the odd experience with sweet looking girls who, when I've messaged them, they've come back with some filth that, believe it or not, I'm not up for entertaining! I stress, this is a rarity!

I've kinda discovered this forum bit as a place where all the nice people hang out.

Awwwwwww thats really luffly yes everyone is very nice here

And to answer your question everyone wants different things but i'd agree there are a high percentage of guys that want love/cyber just gotta weed them out and keep looking for the roses!! And there are some!! Smile


Happy weeding

i don't want love at all, i'm just here cos i wanna talk to nice people, plus i find it hard to meet new people anyway, so that's another reason.

All the nice people are here, thats true. I spend more time here now than on the dating site as I dont know whos genuine or not anymore, not sure what guys do want on there to be honest, it sure aint what i'm looking for but someone may prove me wrong one??......... Confused

Companionship for its own sweet sake.

Now whether that eventually leads to love is another matter.
