I need to rant.
Hookup apps can be fun, but they can be frustrating, and occasionally downright creepy. Here's a few things that people should know about them. If you have other things to add, feel free to add them. The people that need to read this probably won't, but you might feel better.


Your blank profile is useless. Fill out your profile. I get that people need to be discreet, but you can at least put your age, stats and what you are looking for. If you feel that you cannot, at least send it in a message. Say “40 year old 6’0 200# top looking for some fun.” Don't just say “hey” or “looking” from a totally blank profile.

Read other people's profiles before messaging them. And, have a little respect for what they say that they are looking for. If someone says that they are a total top who's looking for smooth, twink bottoms, do not message them if you are not that. If someone says they are a total bottom, do not message them and ask them to top.

Do not ask for pics without having some on your profile or sending some. And if you ask for pics, and someone sends one, at least say something to them. Nobody likes pic collectors.

Be polite and have a little game. Flattery, dirty talk, or flirting will get you further than "looking?" "Hosting?" “wyd” or “rn?”

Don't get pushy, and don't spam someone if they don't reply right away. And if someone says they aren't interested, just look elsewhere.

People have lives. They may not be sitting around wanting to go right now. If you're interested in someone, but they can't meet right then, stay in touch. Occasionally let them know that you are still interested.

If someone says that they are just looking for a NSA hookup, they are just looking for some casual fun. They probably don't want to send 30 different pics, or tell you their life story.

Most importantly, if you agree to meet someone, don't flake. Especially if the other person is hosting. It's a terrible feeling to give out your address to a stranger, then have them not show.
 
the biggest problems tends to be "hosting" and people flaking at zero hour.
on the occasions I can host, they agree to meet, then they ghost at the last minute.

That's always been a problem and it's aggravating.
I travel for work and can always host in my motel room, and that happens to me frequently. There's nothing worse that telling someone my motel and room number, then they don't show. That happened to me just last night.
It's worse than the aggravation of wasting time. It's sitting there now knowing that someone knows where you are.
It's even worse if it was your house.
I don't know what people get out of that. If someone just wants to dirty chat and jack off, I'm always good with that.

Waste my time, and I've ignored other offers, because I thought I had company come. It so frustrating.
 
So frustrating for sure! Finally got nerve to meet someone and had it set up waiting in parking lot and got the run around from him I can't find ! I have to go! I was so let down I was ready and got turned down
 
I can only host if I’m traveling for work, and even then I’m cautious about giving out my room number… I prefer to either meet in the lobby, or give the floor and meet in the elevator lobby… only once have I given my actual room number, and that was only because I was dressed in only lingerie.

If they are going to flake they only have so much info, none of which identifies me
