Advertising yourself as "bored'

I see lots of "Personals" threads that advertise that writer is "bored.' "Bored at work" "Home alone and bored." Like that. These threads usually drop off the list without getting a response. (Assuming they are from men.)

I would like to know whether any male has succeeded in attracting a woman by advertising that he is bored. It seems like this would be similar to advertising that the man is boring. So, have any women ever responded to such ads? Any men gotten a response.

I'm not asking about women advertising that they are bored. Women can say anything, and men will flood them with responses. "I'm a woman and I'm covfefe" will attract attention. I want to know why men would think that saying they are bored would make them attractive?
 
Well, from MY OWN experience, it usually means he just wants someone to engage in explicit conversations with him. Some go for that, some don't bite. It doesn't say much but it leaves it wide open to suggestive chats because of the type of website this is, unless clearly stated.
 
Ooh Ohh, I got a response. And from a woman even!
I know from having chatted with you a bit that you do not seek explicit chat here. At least, that its not easy to get you interested.
But I would think that, even if you did have some interest, you would seek some kind of basis for conversation first.
"I'm bored" would not seem to provide much of a basis to build a hot and arousing sex game.

my Grampie always said only boring people are ever bored...and I don't want to be someone's cure for boredom.

Perhaps he would have greater success if he advertised himself as chairman of the bored of erectors...

...er...I mean directors...
 
Bored to me = boring. I don't answer personal ads but only because I'm not looking to find someone.
 
Conversations leading to deeper connections leads to a wider range of conversations. I have chatted about everything from comic books to porn. It depends on how a person is approached. If the conversation is about getting to know the person rather than satisfying their own personal needs, it could take off into many different directions.

Love, I'm not looking for. An encounter? I can read a story. Plain, just getting to know someone, gets more banter....for some.
 
Getting back to the original topic of being bored...it depends on the person. There is plenty to say and do, are you willing to take that next step to do it? That's the question or should I say, what are you willing to do to cure your form of boredom?

My mum used to say the same...and I'm of the same opinion...I'm not here to provide entertainment for someone unable to occupy their own time or mind...I often used to wonder if it actually worked... its utterly unappealing
 
I’ve answered someone saying they were bored once - but it was a cheeky, public reply not intended to engage them in conversation. I think I said something about them not trying hard enough 🤔 I can’t fully remember.

I think people often use the word bored to mean “I’m available/undistracted by other things”. Personally I am never bored - there is always something else to do or think about! Sometimes I feel lonely, and in need of banter, but I am never bored.

I agree though, that advertising yourself as bored is not the way to go. It’s like advertising a food product as ‘sustenance’ and not trying to show it at its’ best. Personally I like humour, and easy flow of conversation. If someone is bored, it sounds like a bit of hard work. I’ve got plenty of work I can do around here, if that’s what I was after!
 
I've never read an ad beyond the word 'bored'. If you can't entertain yourself, you certainly can't entertain me!
 
I think one factor that may go into it is that men posting these "bored" ads don't want to sound desperate or anxious. It may be a way of saying, "I'm a cool guy and I don't really have to post these kinds of personal ads, but I've got nothing better to do at the moment, so here I am."
Obviously, it doesn't work (for guys, again, women can say almost anything)
Anyway, I'm glad this actually started a bit of conversation.
I don't expect this thread to compete with the words games or anything like that.
