YET,Another dating site !
I'd hate to add up the money I've spent on sites like these over the years !
I'd like to start one up myself to be honest.....got to be a decent quid in it!
Maybe I'll give it a go soon.
I'm sure I could get a few memebers in.
I used to really enjoy these sites as a single, and gladly paid my membership, and was quite happy with the return for my money. Initially they provided me with a much needed social outlet when I was in a rather isolated environment. I made some long lasting friends,I met Mrs Gruves online, quite a few years ago. Money well spent I reckon.
BUT now we are a couple and are looking for a third initially, maybe a couple later>
I must admit, I'm still a bit 'iffy' with the straight swap thing.....I would like to explore those avenues, but I'm still unsure about it. Typical male I guess, just want the extra woman around. I'm sure eventually, I'll be able to handle the couples thing but not just yet.
However, it seems there are very few single women looking for a couple, get plenty of interest and contact from other men wanting to join us....... one day maybe , but I couldn't enter into the more than the two sex thing with another bloke.....I'd feel ......umm.....challenged I guess?
SO.....why spend money on these sites looking for another female when it seems an elusive thing?
Have any couples had any success this way? Are there other avenues?
At least we get some blog space with this one !

Brunswick Heads, NSW, AUStatistics show that there's not many women looking for a couple to join - not just with online dating sites, in any environment. It's just the way it is. Does that mean you shouldn't bother looking? Well, thats entirely up to you, they are out there, there's just not as many as you'd like.
One thing i do know is that it will probably take a bit of time getting to know potential matches, to develop trust. I'd imagine a lot of women would need to make sure they are entering a safe and stable environment before they go getting involved in another couple's lives.
Like you, a lot of couples enjoy the site as a social outlet too, where they can enjoy a chat and get involved in the community - attend the meet and greets, and potentially find what they are looking for. I'm pretty sure other couples have enjoyed success here, but i'm not sure they'll stick their hand up and break vows of discretion.
Welcome to FF, and best of luck in finding what you are looking for :)756 Comments - 117 Blog Posts

Well, I've been on this site as both a single woman interested in couples, and also as part of a couple who was looking for women...I think I can talk without breaking any vows of discretion... :-)
There are plenty of women on the site who are interested in couples...but like Nux says, it does take some time and getting to know a couple.
I like to know enough about both people to know whether I'm attracted...but also have to feel sure about the security of the couple's relationship. I personally have absolutely no desire to get involved in anything where the couple isn't totally in union with each other and on the same page and in total agreence about the whole threesome thing or where boundaries and expectations are not clear.
So I like to be friends with the couple, as a couple...and feel much better if I'm communicating with both partners at the same time..eg.both partners get on cam together and chat rather than just one of them (especially if that one is the man).
Logistics is also trickier with a couple than with singles...
So there are things that make it tricky for couples to find a woman to be involved with, but it's certainly possible.
Goodluck! :-)
