I recently went through my list of favorites on Seeking and edited it ruthlessly! Since I tend to favorite every profile that passes this low bar: Is she local and would I fuck her if I could? I wind up with many favorites! But I eliminated all of the ones who have not been active for several months, who never answered my messages (if I sent any), or who for some other reason I've decided are not viable prospects. So my current list of favorites is down to only 73. Is that a lot or a few? How many favorites do you have on your list?
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
But to address your point, I have about 20 gals on my favorites.
If she has retired, or I have zero interest in the person for whatever reason, I edit them out. For the most part, they are all gals I have seen at least once.
I know you meant it as a joke but I didn't get it. Who is Ruth? Please explain.
I wanted to fuck a Dr Ruth once … Not!
I think I have like two pages worth or 50. To take it further I may leave them favorites longer but cut off their photo access earlier.
Sweetman is talking about his list of favorite SB's on Seeking, while Mr. Fisher is talking about his list of favorite providers on TER.
I've never counted my faves. Nor do I refer to them very much unless it's during a consistent message thread. I change cities frequently and sometimes refer back to see what local chicks have favorited me. The SA platform is very weak for searching and organizing, but perhaps I am missing some method of better using faves to my advantage.
I use favorites in a similar fashion. Although I scrub mine every couple of weeks due to whatever. Usually its bc I sent a message(s) that have not been opened in 2 weeks or something like that.
I also use hiding so I am not seeing repeats that have either fizzled out in the messaging, said they are not interested, or I know that there is no way I would ever message them.
I never use favorites, so "0" to answer Sweetman's question.
But I use Hiding exactly the way Bassrat does. I only see new or viable women when I run a search because I immediately Hide anyone I am not interested in, or anyone that I have lost interest. If I have sent three or four messages that have not been replied to, I Hide that profile.
It obviously doesn't cost anything to favorite someone, and some guys do this as "bookmarks" so they can find these gals later, without messaging right away. If you can keep track of them, I don't see a problem.
I've found that the hotties are generally not going to initiate anything because they get so many messages, and you really have to push them with one or two messages telling them you're interested.
If they're not active, they're not going to see your messages. They might get an email if they get notificiations but it's generally best to message them when they are online.
Depends on the site, but at Secret Benefits I use favorites as bookmarks for those I've contacted.
One more way I like to use favorites on Seeking is that while most of them my favorites are locals, some few are SBs in other cities I have met while traveling or think I might like to contact when traveling. They all show up in the same lineup when I open the favorites file under the interests tab. But if I only want to view my local interests, then I hit Search, do my local search results and filter them for favorited under Options. That way I only see the locals I've favorited.
I do this frequently. If someone doesn't respond after a few days, I get rid of them.
First, any SB who has sent me a message or who I have sent a message gets favorited. I will only remove them if/when their profile location changes to something non-local.
Next, I may favorite someone who I find interesting, but am not yet ready to message. On rare occasions this resulted in a 1st message from her.
I find it useful to review my favorites from time to time to see if I want to initiate contact. In addition, I find favorites useful when I get a message from a POT that looks familiar. If I can find the pic from a "new" pot on a favorited profile, I am better prepared to engage, or not engage.
Finally, I take one more step on POT's I want to favorite or who when messaging starts: I save all of her profile pics, labeled with her profile name on my PC. This has been a valuable tool to verify that a profile for a "new" POT is actually just v2,3,4, etc.

As part of the the “seeking council” (aka bullshit), they should have “folders”, or “buckets”.
I used favorites different ways over time. But generally it is the only grouping system there is.
So wish there was a way to group in multiple fashions.
Brandon, are you listening? Is this thing on?
