Typical... No pic of the male.. HAHA.. that would be our note if they were local or if we traveled to that area... Anyway It's been 6 days and nothing else from them. Maybe they found a buddy in their new location.
With regards to how your profile is written, one thing we try to do (and like in other profiles) is when the author writes in a personal tone. That is, when we read your profile, we want to hear your voices telling us a little about you, where you've been, what you like to do, and what your expectations are. You should also address your level of lifestyle experience.
This information is quite useful to the reader. For example, if you are frequent NASCAR attendees who enjoy afternoon cookouts with a keg of beer (which is a good thing), you should state that to the readers. While the Merlot sipping couple who goes to the opera every week might or might not be a match, it's better to have a little knowledge of your potential playmates before meeting. We've had great times with people who are completely different from us but it helped to know that coming in to the first encounter.
Hope this helps a little.

Not trying to be mean, but there really aren't enough words in the profile to review. The pictures of her are sexy and no doubt were the draw where you came from. The male height/weight is in line with someone in good shape and the very little of what the pics show of him seems consistent with that.
The problem is that it comes across as a fake profile. Someone just here to look at/collect pictures would post such a profile. They'd have the hot women pics as bait and just enough words to get past a profile review.
I'm not saying that this is the case, and I get how the thought that this is a sex site can translate to the thought that you shouldn't need much more, but a lack of effort on the profile carries a number of negative connotations. Some number of people will look at that and just say, "Pass". If nothing else it leads to a conclusion of, "If they put that little effort into their profile, what kind of effort are they going to make in actually meeting, or if we did meet?"
Again, you can bypass this and just attend events, but even if you do that it never hurts to put your best foot forward here as well. If you're going to have a profile, why not make it one that would appeal to and draw in more people? After all, that is kind of the point ;-)
The female pictures are extensively appealing and give a lot of info. We also know the male has a nipple and some chest hair. The profile says nothing above what others would expect it to at a minimum.
At this point, if you don't sit down together and come up with a little more to draw the reader in, I would suggest meeting people in person, a closer club to try, Shadows in Hyattsville, Md: they also have an SLS group.
Good luck!

Lifestyle success is like sales; you have to make a lot of cold calls to have some "hot" sales! We lived in the DC area for 13 years and found the lifestyle scene very active. If you are club people, Tabu is very close and is a good venue. The Cottage in Gettysburg, the Korral in Spring Grove, and TPA in Port Deposit all offer a good club experience. Each is different but are all well run. You might look into some other lifestyle websites. AltPlayground is a DC-centered lifestyle site that is quite popular. SLS is also extensively used. There is a BDSM club in DC called The Crucible which also holds regular lifestyle events.
So, send out a lot of messages (I almost said emails there!) and get out and meet new people. That's what we did and had a great time in the area.

All good suggestion... a picture of the male would help also since must Lifestyle activity is determined by the female.( lady not happy with male NO PLAY!)
You may also want to check out local groups and see if any have meet and greets.
Mayhem has a point. Pop over to the Better Profiles section, where the picture guru hails from your area. They'll help with fleshing out that profile, adjusting your pics a bit, and see if that doesn't improve your results!
If you're into clubs, there are several good ones within reasonable driving distance. There's TPA in Port Deposit MD, the Cottage in Gettysburg PA, and Tabu close to Baltimore (listed in order of our preference). Great places to meet new friends!
Thought #2 - Having more than 2 sentences for your profile would help ;-)
Have you tried posting a Hot Date or responding to others? Also, are there any Hot Date > Events by you? Those would be my first thoughts.
Really struggling to meet folks in our new home area. Anyone have any ideas??
