we're all here for different reasons - i don't need to write stories. smile


That was in my original post. I agree. We are all here for different reasons. But I guess I'm discussing the few instances that I've had with people who claim to be real and will chat with me for weeks on end on Lush, but can't simply say 'Hi' on Skype. If you aren't here to make friends and only here to read and write stories.....no need for Skype at all. I agree.

Why do I have to assume they're lying just because I don't see their face?


I don't think you have to assume they are, but don't you want to know for sure? Again....maybe I'm not using this site right. lol

That stuff doesn't truly matter. Does not seeing someone's face on cam make the friendship any less real? Sure it's nice to put a face to someone, but it's definitely not a defining factor.


If the person is absolutely lying to you I would say that it makes it a lot less real. You wouldn't want one of the friends you have offline to blatantly lie to you about something, why is it any different on Lush?

You say on your profile you don't want to cyber, if you said you did then you probaby would get less refusals. You may get less chatting to you though. Just a thought.


Not sure I follow...So I should say that I do want to cyber? I mean....I have and probably will again. But my point is that that's not all I'm here for. I honestly like getting to know someone and if cyber sex happens then it happens. I'm also not asking anyone to get on Skype and throw off their clothes. I'm asking for a simple 'hi' just like you would anyone else that you meet in 'real' life.

I guess the other side of the question is..... Why wouldn't you want to see the person you are talking to? Please understand, I'm not talking about the randos that you've spoken to like twice and all they say is "Hey baby, I'm horny." I'm talking about the people that you regularly chat with and have an actually friendship with. Don't you want to see who they are? Am I being too real for this site?

I absolutely agree with respecting people's privacy. Everyone has the right to choose not to. I guess I just don't understand the reasoning behind the logic. Obviously to each their own and I honestly do respect that. I just don't know why someone wouldn't want to.

So this is just my opinion and I understand that we all come to lush for different reasons. But here is my rant, please feel free to share your thoughts…..

I don’t understand the negative connotation and the resistance to Skype on here. Obviously most of which comes from females. If you enjoy talking to someone and you get along, why not Skype? You aren’t sharing any more information than you are on here. If your pictures are real (which most claim) and you enjoy chatting, what is the harm? The “I must protect my privacy” excuse really doesn’t hold water because you aren’t sharing any private information on Skype. At least no more than you choose to. If you are talking to someone who all they do is want to see you naked….then obviously don’t Skype if you aren’t comfortable. But some of us (including me) don’t care to see you naked, we/I just want to have a real conversation with the person we’ve been chatting with. I really don’t see the harm. If the person turns out to be a weirdo…block them. Move on. Simple as that. Am I missing something? I understand that some people come here for an escape from their “real” life and are using this just as a fantasy outlet, and I won’t judge that. But for God’s sakes, don’t be “real,” say your pictures are real, and then come up with some excuse why you can’t or don’t Skype. Another funny one is…”I don’t Skype with people from Lush.” Like we have the Skype plague or something. Again….am I missing something? Am I in the minority here?
