I was researching more sites in which singles can find a clothes-free date when I came across information that our own CFF has Clothes Free Singles. I was wondering if anyone here was a part of that group of what information anyone could share about it. It's the only nudist online dating service I've found in which women have to pay for membership as well as the men (I'm all for gender-equality, but ONLY when it's in my favor LOL.) As I'd have to pay to join, I figured I'd ask for your experiences with it first. I am a member of singlenudist.com and I do have a profile in (gasp!) nudistfriends.com I also have profiles in some of the textile dating sites. But I'm not getting much for results... I'm starting to think I'm undateable. Anyway, any input you could give me with your experience with Clothes Free Singles or any other singles site would be greatly appreciated.

I tried to join the CFF's Clothes Free Singles, but it wanted my INA Member number. I never got an INA Member number when I joined INA, so from there I didn't know what to do. Also, it seemed like it wanted me to pay something, but I couldn't figure out how much. Also, I'd prefer to be able to pay using PayPal rather than any other method. It just seems more secure. One other thing, is as a single male, I didn't want to join a dating site if it was going to be like 90% single males. I don't care if the forum is that way, but being hetero then a dating site with a similar male to female ratio just wouldn't be my cup of tea. Nevertheless, I couldn't get past the INA Member Number part or payment part. I do get emails from the site, telling me what a great site it is, so maybe I am a partial member or something.
How many ads on the CFF singles site have you responded to? I'd kind of imagine that you'd be being beseiged by requests and having to fight them off with a stick. Maybe nobody knows that a female joined. Maybe you're like a needle in a haystack. I dunno.
My INA membership ran out because I couldn't find my INA card and didn't know when the expiration date was, and INA didn't want me as a member badly enough to inform me that the expiration date was coming near. I was told that they always inform people when the date is nearing, but they didn't inform me. I haven't seen any need to rejoin since the only reason I joined was to get their screensaver. I'm not all that interested in looking at their photos, and I can't view any videos with my snail-speed dial-up Internet.

Don't feel bad, Melissa, I'm a member there too, and there are what, some 3 times as many men as women? That means far too much competition for me (90% of the men will be after 10% of the ladies, and I'm just an ordinary guy anyway). Not only that, there unfortunately isn't anyone in my area at all, and the ladies who have caught my eye live, for the most part, halfway across the country or even farther, so I see no point in contacting them.
I've also tried other matchmaking services over the years (one of which I wasted nearly $2,000 on) and have been uniformly disappointed since I've encountered nothing but gameplayers (NOT at clothesfreesingles.com, I must emphasize; however, I've attempted to contact no one as of yet). In any case, I wouldn't worry too much about it, since I suspect most others are in my situation as well (if there were 30,000 singles registered instead of the current 300 or so, then I might worry).
Personally, I'm not certain that I'd renew my membership there, or seek membership with any other matchmaking service again; some have millions of members and boast thousands of marriages, but if you do the math, you end up with perhaps a 0.1% (or less) success rate. That's not very heartening for us singles.

I'm not an INA member so I'm not able to join Clothes Free Singles. I'm debating membership so that I can join... just wondering what others thought of it before putting forth my funds.

Oops! Looks like I misread your post... I thought you already were a member. In any case, pretty much everything else I posted is relevant...

Hey Melissa -
The CF Singles is run by Brian Spence and actually it is the exact same site as singlenaturist.com for TNS members, and singlenudist.com for AANR members. Just the packaging is different. So if you are in any of these organizations, you can join Brian's singles/dating site.
There's an article on Brian and his sites in "Nude & Natural" 24.2.. Hope this helps a bit . . . and good luck.

Melissa,
Since moving to the Valley Forge area a little under 2 years ago, I've been exploring hidden away places nearby where I can go nude. I've found a few, one in particular is really fantastic for moonlight walks, and sometimes daylight walks if one uses discretion. Now I'm looking for a friend(s) to share my discoveries with. I'm open to one or more females, couples, or actually any group that contains at least one female, I'm not into sharing nude activities with just guys, unless they're really close friends.
I'd like to hear from you, to see if you might be interested. I'd appreciate if you'd let me know either way, I'm interested in knowing what kind of activities you like.
A little about me - I'm 48, straight, divorced, in decent shape. I've enjoyed clothes-free activities a few times a year for many years now. I go to Gunnison maybe twice a year, been to a couple of nudist resorts, and check out nude beaches whenever I travel. And as mentioned above my surreptitious walks and sunbathing as nature intended in local parks and conservancys. But I don't consided myself a "nudist" or even really a naturist. For me it's not a lifestyle or philosophy, it's just something I enjoy doing.
I read your story, and I have sympathy for the pain you've had to deal with and I'm sure are still dealing with. I was in a long term relationship with a woman with a very similar history. For that reason I wouldn't be looking for an intimate relationship with you, just clothes-free friends.
In fact, we seem to be quite opposite. While it was a struggle for you to allow yourself to be exposed even a little bit, for me ever since my teens I wanted to wear clothes as little as possible. I love this time of year, I keep all my curtains closed while I'm at work, so when I get home the clothes come off as soon as I get in the door. Of course I'm nude as I'm typing this. But as good as it feels, being outdoors is infinitely better.
If sharing clothes free moonlight walks and discreet all-over tanning isn't what you're interested in, maybe you could pass this along to some of your friends.
Hope to hear from you,
Jim

Yeah just be careful of those 'naturist' dating sites that are nothing but huge scams wanting your money and full of phony profiles. The tip off to me is that they are a part of a larger service, and they also advertise that it's for "exhibitionists".

Hi Melissa,
"BackpackerBrian" is 100% correct.
I was a member of singlenudist.com and from that site, you can view all members in the following two groups:
1) SingleNaturist.com (for TNS members) and
2) ClothesFreeSingles.com (for INA members)
Bottom line, don't join the ClothesFreeSingles.com if you have to pay money - because you can view the same people by joining singlenudist.com for free as a female and AANR member.
Unfortunately us males have to pay a fee - but I think it's okay, as long as there is a chance for us to meet someone we may spend our life with ...... it's well worth the cost.
Take care Melissa.
Sincerely,
Steve

Melissa,
Don't ever think you're undateable! If a guy is interested in you for who you are, great! If not, don't waste your time. Ahem, do you mind if I make a personal comment? I hope no one gets offended by this, but, you do appear to be very attractive and slim. What guy wouldn't want you? http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_confused.gif Seriously.

Hmm, if they have a nudist beach?? There is this great cartoon in the March edition of "The Bulletin" (AANR): cartoon shows NASA center with a big screen with a view from mars, a sign that says nude beach and three martians (green people) waving. The text says "Mr president, the probe has found intelligent life on mars". Then looking at the screen, the male has two penisses, the woman three eyes and three breasts.
Seriously, for dating (even for extraterrestials), nothing seems to beat uDate. I used in the past, met some really nice women. I met my wife later, not via uDate but not in a too different way either. She's an avid naturist too. If you think you are undatable BEFORE thinking it is difficult to find a date who's into nudism, try the above. At the time I think it was even free. It is at least hugely popular.
As for finding nudist dates, a ratio 1:3 isn't really that bad. It's a pity one cannot get a preview of people within some simple selection criteria so you have an idea of potential success before we pay (but hey, maybe someone who has access can help a little :-)

I just joined nudistfriends.com and it seems to be pretty legit. I've met 3 nudists friends on there so far. Check it out!
Stay nude,

Nudistfriends.com is just a reincarnation of nudistfriendfinder.com which was totally bogus.
Yes, you can meet some nice people but you have to wade through the people looking for sex.
And friendfinder has such a horrible reputation because they don't moderate memberships and they harvested email addresses from nudist sites and spammed the he11 out of them.
