Classified ads work well to meet guys who are your type and who consider you their type.

Introduction

Classified ads in the newspapers work very well, but only if you include your phone number. The catch is people will call at all hours of the day and night. If you honestly describe yourself, nearly all the callers will be quite happy with you. Those who would reject you on age, build etc. don’t call. Even if you describe the sort of guy you are looking for, many people who don’t fit that description at all will still call, hoping against hope. Some will lie outrageously. You will get many no shows. You have to take the bad with the good. On the other hand, you will meet some guys far cuter than you would dream of meeting through cruising. The most powerful classified ad draw is the hot-oil massage.

You can place personal ads on the web for free in many places. These ads work very well to find compatible people; the catch is they usually live quite far away.
