It seems to me that based on the number of profiles and ads that includes the line "PLEASE NO SINGLE GUYS" that there are a lot of single guys who end up making a nuisance of themselves.
What do you think about the idea which I've seen elsewhere that beyond creating a profile and placing ads they should not be allowed to approach anybody. Couples or single women can browse through the available options and make the initial approach. This would certainly reduce the amount of stupid bumbling approaches they receive. Of course after the initial approach the couple or single female can go through their normal vetting process. If the guy is a no show or proves unreliable or a chancer there could possibly be a mechanism for the couple or single woman to endorse the guys profile. In other words those guys that are chancers get a negative rating giving future interested parties a heads up as it were.
Not ideal and I'm sure that if it were to be implemented a bit more thought might have to go into it to avoid potential abuse.
But preventing single guy approaches might make others' experience a bit more pleasurable. Let's face it there're plenty single guys on here. Couples and single ladies are spoilt for choice. I mean it may be a poor analogy but the way it operates now is almost like, instead of going to the SPCA to choose a new pet the people wanting a new pet are put on display and all the dogs running up and down barking trying to catch the eye of a potential new owner.
Just an idea. But it seems to me a logical solution to the problem.
