I wish I could see the reviews I have left without going into the cuddlers profile.. its awkward showing up on their "visited you" when all I want is to remember what I wrote.
@AGnihon Thanks! 😊
@tacpmurg I write my Karma in a notes app, then paste it into their profile, so I always have a copy outside the site.

@tacpmurg couldn't agree more. I also hesitate to do that because I don't want them to feel creeped out, so I don't check often. It's unfortunate, but when we don't have much to go off of, we can read too much into things, like how often someone checks our profile. Some on here have even mentioned the need to keep checking for other reasons like forgetting a detail here and there. However, it's frustrating because once you have a pleasant and intimate cuddle session like that, you kind of also just root for them and their future success. Sometimes you want to check in to see their new karma and make sure that cuddlers are continuing to give them the respect you feel they deserve.
@SunsetSnuggles great idea about your own karma and you're welcome 😊!
@tacpmurg @AGnihon I see profile visits as a compliment; only weird if it's by one of the trolls. It's also a good reminder to PM someone back, as I'm always behind on my PM's! 😆😔
@SunsetSnuggles That's a much healthier way of looking at it! And I am also always behind on my pm's. I am amazed everyday how many friendly people are willing to just shoot you messages. You just don't get so many ongoing chats on other social apps or sites.
@AGnihon That's wonderful! Yes, I must reiterate, this community is awesome sauce.
@AGnihon thank you for the post!
I have gotten embarrassingly bad with my karma given. I never know what to say anymore. I don't know how to fix it though, lol. Especially since I agree with this sentiment that the more details / less generic the better.
@ubergigglefritz I totally can relate. It's like you want to say something unique to the person but it feels like everything has been said before. Hard to not sound cookie cutter or rehearsed .
One thing I'll do is wait until I feel inspired then leave karma. No need to place an arbitrary time frame , that just adds stress. I've found sometimes that chatting them up a bit, or looking back at old messages etc will kick my brain into gear about special things and why I like them. older I get the harder time I have using my words lol
@pmvines thanks for the tips!
Judging on the small amount of people with karma I've seen in my area, I think most people would be happy to see karma being given at all. Just a nod to show this person is good on their intentions and maybe a bit more info is fine with me.
Mileage will vary. Karma content depends on the writer, their ability to craft their thoughts, and deliberately acknowledging the (usually) positive experience they've had with another cuddler, pro or enthusiast. I've seen hundreds of negative karma comments through the years, from "don't trust anyone without karma!" to "a dude with 80 karma isn't proof that they're not a sexual predator" to "no one reads karma anyway, it's a waste of time!"
For me and writing karma, I'm acknowledging the other person and the experience - and I tend to write specifically for that person. In general, I think of karma as a type of internet post card. "Hi, wish you were here" type of thing, a note to remember the connection and happening. When I read others' karma, I'm looking at things they DON'T mention, also, but that's another topic.
