If a pro is doing unprompted soliciting, then that should be reported. If they're breaking TOS or the pro/client contracts, they need to be reported. As long as people keep tolerating it, it will keep happening.
However, if you visit a pro's profile, they are allowed to contact you. It's the equivalent of if you step into a store to check it out - the business owner is allowed to ask if you're looking to purchase or just browsing. If you tell them that you are not interested and they keep pressing, then it's harassment absolutely should be reported.
When we ignore the people breaking the rules, it just encourages more to do it. If we show people that unacceptable behavior won't be tolerated, eventually they'll go find easier paths to what they want.
@Emmerich Are you sure you didn’t tap on or visit these pros profiles you speak of? Because they are allowed to send you a message if you do. I rarely get a solicitation from someone whose profile I never visited. But I do quite often from those I visited. And I have been on here for several years. My experience is most pros follow the letter of that law.
@TheFunCartel Good point and I agree on that. A pro wouldn't just message someone out of the blue. I would say maybe almost all of the pros that have messaged me, I have visited their profiles firsthand. It doesn't bother me because I would have to have a level of interest in said pro so it's not like I'm being randomly DMed. It's not to say that @Emmerich is overexaggerating in said claim but from the number of pros that have been banned or timed out that I've come in contact with, it's only been a handful. I would go on to say about 85% don't cross any boundaries when it comes to the rules here and there's gonna be the other 15% that are risky and potentially inappropriate, but for the better part it's a rarity on my end.
I'm here to not just cuddle, but hopefully find friends, or people i find connection with. It doesn't seem easy to make friends as an adult. I don't want to date, and this site makes me feel safer and not the expectations a dating site would have. I do love to cuddle, and this site let's people aware, it should just be that, and no more.
Why are you really on here?
To kick ass and chew bubble gum, and I am all out of bubble gum...Lol! 😆
Therefore , platonic cuddling would be the obviously next step to "personal growth" for Me. 😜👍
I’m lonely
I'm here for the popcorn and bubblegum
Hi there I’m sorry to hear you have been getting dry messages That suckss
I feel now is as good as a time as any to receive feedback on my opening message I typically will say something like:
Hi [name if it’s on their profile], my name is Jeremiah🤗 [if the person has something I can connect to or ask a question about in their bio(like a similar interest or experience) or profile(like an event or style) I’ll talk about it or ask about it] I wanted to welcome you to cuddlecomfort and hope you find what you’re looking for. Feel free to check out the forum. It’s fun over there.
[Then I pick an icebreaker and share my answer like: if you could be a color, what would you be and why? I’d probably be red because it is a strong affectionate color that stands out. Or If you were a food what would you be and why? If I were a food, I might be lasagna with veggies added cause it tastes good, is comforting, warm, sticks to your gut and is good for you in a fun carb and protein loaded way. ]
Also how are you feeling?
Maybe this is just right, not enough or low key over the top. I don’t know lol 😆
@Jeremiaaahhh Your question should be more like:
When it comes to boogers, do you finger mine, blow, or irrigate?
You need to know this before they massage your scalp.
You are wild @TheFunCartel 😆
I’m here to eat all of @pmvines popcorn
@AmandaAmanda
Ut oh I'm gonna need a bigger bucket
@pmvines is a smart dude
I don't want to date anyone and I can get plenty of sex elsewhere, when that mood strikes.
However I miss just hugging and general non-sexual affection.
Also it wouldn't be awful to find someone to talk and listen to, while you're hugging. But that's totally optional.
Edit: why is my post not showing my pfp? Weird. 🤷🏼♀️
@Ver02 I believe that happens sometimes if certain image file types are used, like the in-built camera file type. Saving the image as a jpg or png and re-uploading it should resolve it.
I’m here because I want to give and receive cuddles-and maybe make friends if it clicks. No more or less than that.
I joined this site specifically because I’m going through a difficult patch of my life, which kind of uncovered feelings of loneliness I wasn’t allowing myself to feel previously. Hard for me to express-this website is a small but important part of my process of healing.
I'm very sorry to hear your experience has not been what it should be. I have met up with some others for cuddles, and have been pleasantly surprised. I thought it was going to be just one of those sites, for dating etc. The people that I have accepted bookings from know and enjoy the art of cuddling, understand and respect why they're here and why I'm here. Are there people here for the wrong reasons? Absolutely! But they're always going to be, no matter what type of situation you're in. I hope that you stick it out and give it a little bit more time. I have learned in my time here that talking with the potential cuddlee provides me enough information that I can quickly figure out why they are on the website and if I want to spend time with them. Time is the one thing we can never get back, so making the most of it quickly is very important to me too! I hope you have an amazing day and good luck!
It’s definitely a mix of escorts, hipsters looking to get paid to be a tease and some other things but there are plenty of people who take it seriously you just have to be honest with yourself and seek that which fits your desire
