I have spoken to a few members on the phone, emailed others, and (gasp) met one or two. You may vote on more than one answer.

Email, Skype, video. Talked on the phone with several. So, yes!

Briggett · T

@ravenwind43 same here. Nothing but very positive experiences and they have become very supportive and important in so many ways.
Thanks y’all 🙏

No one will meet me. 😑 I've known some for over a decade. It's bordering on offensive at this point.

@Nadie
If you weren't married 😏

Fungirlmmm · 51-55, F

Yep

submissivelittlewoman · F

I’ve spoken on the phone with a couple of ep/sw friends

ATripToNowhere · 46-50, M

All of the SW members I tried to meet outside the site turned out to be fake. I would venture an opinion that most users on the site are robots.

@ATripToNowhere
Does not compute.

NewBeginnings7790 · 41-45, F

There were a couple of members who I have talked to outside of SW, and only 1 of them that I would have agreed to meet in person…

Rilyn · 31-35, F

Only other messaging apps. Nothing special. Not sure id want to invest my time into it anyway.

SW-User

Yes but never have met them, and with most would have been better to interact just here.

Eddiesolds · 61-69, M

Yes. There a few that i talk to. Its always nice to hear their voices. Its a beautiful thing

Starchild1983 · 41-45, F

Only on another messaging app like kik or telegram

Jeephikelove · 51-55, F

Yes to 3 of those

SW-User

Email with the ones I still talk.

I've also used video, and call. But, wished I hadn't.

@SW-User Sorry

solitaire · 41-45, F

@SW-User Why do you regret calls

SW-User

@solitaire both of those people ended up being quite shitty with me, fickle, liars. In the long run treated me bad so that's why. Were really good and then changed.

LadyJ · F

Yeah just a few

Onestarlitnight

Yup.. spoke with her on the phone.. texted her.. sent her a vibrator because she was too embarrassed to buy one herself 😂

uncalled4 · 56-60, M

@Onestarlitnight That's a real friend,

Onestarlitnight

@uncalled4
She was quite grateful for the gift 😉

uncalled4 · 56-60, M

@Onestarlitnight Sharing is caring

Piper · 61-69, F

Yes, I've spoken to a few members on the phone and in emails. They are people I'd already come to know, though, from another similar site.

UnstableDiffusion · 36-40, M

I've spoken on the phone with an SW user before. We talked every day for a few months.

TheCoolestCat · 31-35, M

i already knew the guy from years ago lol does that count?

goliathtree · 56-60, M

not in person, but certainly by phone, and other means

bartender · 36-40, M

Yes yes and yes. Met a few of them
Spoke to a few of them other than sw

SW-User

Yep
Text
Phone call
Facebook messenger video call

SW-User

@SW-User wished I hadn't called or videocalled with anyone. 😞

HootyTheNightOwl

I have talked to a few via email and Kik in my time.

SW-User

Back in the day, I met a few when EP was still around

solitaire · 41-45, F

Yes.2 people. One person blocked me - anyway I was going through a rough patch and it can't be helped.
Also on EP- there was someone I knew for 7 years and he ghosted me: one of the worst experiences of my life. Because it was online I did not get closure and it drove me nuts

JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

whatsaop and met some irl

Ducky · 31-35, F

Met in person once.

ProfessorPlum77 · 70-79, MVIP

No, but I did meet one from MSN back when they had a chat line.
That was probably about 2005 or 2006.
PS I am WAY overdue to go down that road, again. 🤓

SW-User

Nope.

I barely had conversations here.

In EP, I have spoken to dozens of people on phone.

Even bought gifts each other.

Never met anyone though.

Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F

A few emails, 2 on phone, 2 on Skype, nothing lasted
This was mostly on EP

TheFragile · 46-50, M

I dated one for a year and spent time with her on several occasions.

Gangstress · 41-45, F

Yes i have talked on the phone with a couple of members

melbeacher · 61-69, M

Yes. Even met in person.

Loretta78 · 46-50, F

No. Never.

eyeno · M

Yes to all...,

Rokasu · 36-40, M

Yeah sure.

SW-User

Yep yep

SW-User

On this site, email and text with a couple, sent and received gifts and one calls once in a while.
Before this site...a long time ago, a group of us decided to exchange emails and phone numbers in case something happened to any of us. Eventually we traded addresses and all exchanged gifts for Christmas. One died from cancer.... one became homeless and I lost contact with her.... many years later, one decided I couldn't be a nice person because of how I saw covid and all.

ProfessorPlum77 · 70-79, MVIP

@SW-User One became homeless. That is so sad.
☹️

SW-User

@ProfessorPlum77 Yep. Her landlord decided he wanted to live in the house she was renting and gave her 30 days to leave. Last I heard, she had lost her vehicle and was paying to stay in a hotel. She was a lot older than me and received a monthly check, but I don't think it was enough.
