Yes, there really are real ladies at AFF. I have contacted and conversed with quite a few of them. Very attractive ones, too. But, I'm a woman so it's easier for me. You have to realize that, as a woman, the sheer volume of emails you get from men there (even within just a few hours of signing up) is totally overwhelming. A man really has to differentiate himself. With Phillip, he differentiated himself with words. And once I saw them, I got AFF myopia, lol. I wasn't interested in corresponding with anyone else.
The vast majority of guys there will send you an email with a picture of their cock and a 'yo, what's up?' That just doesn't do it for me. And it's not the picture of the cock, it's the 'yo, what's up?' I imagined hearing a knock on my door and opening it to find some dude standing there with his pants around his ankles saying, 'yo, what's up?'
So, yeah. Differentiate yourself.
And don't be a sleazebag. Although, Tully, I know that's not your style.
I have every confidence in your ability to bag one on AFF.
