Anyone have this problem... The only people in my area that respond to messages are pros. Only once did I get a response from a non pro. Anyone else have this problem?
Yeah, I'd imagine it's a fairly common issue.
A lot of areas are low on cuddlers aside from pros (or low on any kind at all), and non pro cuddlers tend to stick to cuddle buddies they get once they have them as is natural. There's also the fact that female non professional cuddlers especially get messaged a lot (somewhat similar dynamic with the messages as the one on dating sites) due to the majority male population and the high number of people wanting to cuddle only with the opposite sex.
It's sort of how you'd expect. Nothing can be done aside from encouraging more people to the site and also for those that are a part of the community to be more open with their communications I guess - it's just a natural result of various things.
I know the feeling also seems i have as much chance of getting a message from a non pro on this site which is platonic as I do in a dating site which is rarely get messaged back. Funny when you consider women do want to meet others yet have such high criteria or high volume of others you have a chance to get responded back as much as winning the lottery lol
