Over the past few months I’ve noticed girls on SA who change their locations often. I call them travelers and they should be classified as pros.  Now the college girls are populating SA more as they are coming back to school.  They are coming to be more flaky.  I’ve had 3 M&G’s set up and 3 flake outs in the last week.  Just weeding them out.  

It seems common for SB's to not use their actual location, but areas (usually) nearby.  Some will say they are in a big city but they might actually be 100 miles away in a small town.  Some use a nearby suburb but not their actual location.

It's true they sometimes use a nearby location instead of their real one.  But sometimes it's just so bizarre I have zero clue what goes on inside those pretty little heads.Last week I was contacted by a SB whose location was given as an city in So Cal.  I don't live there but still happy to converse.  She asked to go to text, we exchanged a few pics, then she said:  "I'm actually in Ghana Africa, is that a problem?"  Jeez, at least So Cal was on the same continent!

I too have noticed a big back to school surge in new SB profiles in my area.  I've messaged several, still haven't had any new M&Gs so I can't say if the incidence of no shows and flaky behavior is above normal here or not.
Happy Hunting!

Yep, I've seen it as well.  

 
I'll see a profile within my 10 mile search radius, or get a favorite or message from a POT in "Los Angeles." When the conversation moves off SA she confesses she's in Ghana, Japan, UK, etc. When I ask why she listed in LA, I'll get some flavor of "I want to move to LA", or "I am coming to LA soon."  Total BS of course.  

 
One "Danger, Will Robinson" sign is if she asks you to use What'sApp, Wechat, Kik or some other app that is more popular outside of the US.  

 
I always handle these the same way, asking them to contact me when they get to LA.  That generally results in the desired result - radio silence. Which works for me because...

I occasionally got the "I'm coming to the USA soon."  These were single chicks.  Usually living in countries not in the USA visa waiver program.  Even before COVID the chances of a single chick getting a visa to travel alone to the US was vanishingly slim.  Unless they are enrolled in a USA college they aren't getting in.  Immigration just assumes if a single chick comes on a tourist visa, she'll never leave.

...which is why you never want to buy the SA bullshit there are 4x number of girls or something per guy.  In fact, the girls change profiles about as often as they buy new bags.  If you weed out all the greater than 4 day old profiles, the men:women ratio is about even.
Yeah - but you do bring up a point I've become more attuned to lately - I'm always quick to ask if they are in my area or expect to be for a long while LOL
