308.0. "How do you meet a Naturist Partner?" by KAOFS::D_BIGELOW (It's really quite *simple* actually...) Tue Apr 30 1991 21:53
It is not my intention to turn this into a singles note, but
since it has to do with naturism, I thought I'd express my concerns here,
and maybe someone out there can share their advice or experience.
Some of you with whom I have shared personal mail, know that
I am single again, (I'll save you the details), and I was trying to figure
out how, or what the best method was, of searching for a female partner
that enjoys naturism!
I kind of find it a bit disturbing to approach single females at
a naturist resort/beach/whatever, because first , there are usually lots
of guys, right ? .... and because there are, I don't want to give any
female the impression that they are being 'hit' on. Actually, I tried
once, not 'hitting' on her, but tried to approach her in a friendly way,
and I was so rejected I felt about 2 inches tall. I can only guess from
that experience that many men can/will try to 'pick-up' women at the
resorts, etc. Maybe that's why there are so few women interested in
naturism!?!
Sure, I guess outside of naturism, there are plenty of possible
opportunities to meet someone, but if/when you do, how do you tell that
person that you don't want a relationship with them unless they feel free
enough about their bodies to to go nude on a beach or at a resort?
In my next long-term relationship, naturism must be accepted by both
individuals in order for the relationship to work. I feel that if I'm
attached to someone, they should *want* to come with me, when I visit
a beach/campground/whatever.
How do you find someone like this? Please, try not to
tell me that "don't search for someone, it'll just happen" line, cause
I already know that you usually find someone when you're not trying,
but just how do you meet naturist women?? Should I put an ad in the paper?

| Beats me! I'm faced with the same problem although I am very happy
single and am not very concerned with meeting someone but when I do
this will be an important issue to resolve early. As far as meeting
people at resorts I've not had any problems all of the women have
been very friendly I've even had a few try to pick me up.
Getting involved in a game such as volleyball allows one to meet others
with out it seeming like you are targeting them.

| 308.2 | SINGLES notesfile? | KEYBDS::HASTINGS | | Wed May 01 1991 12:17 | 9 |

Why not enter a note in the SINGLES notesfile? That is how I met my
wife. As I see it your "interest" in Naturism is just one more "interest" to
add to a list when you describe yourself. If you can be so up front about it,
it shouldn't be a problem with anyone who replies. Who knows you may even
attract/"convert" a few new naturists!
best of luck to you!

| 308.3 | Good topic | BOSOX::HENDERSON | Seems a common way to go | Wed May 01 1991 12:34 | 17 |

I've been in this same quandry for a while. I've never entered anything
in the singles notesfile, and at the moment am happily single, but would
definitely add something to the effect that I'm a naturist in anything I
would put in that conference. I would also entertain meeting someone who's
mind was at least open to the subject if I were not able to find someone active
in naturism.
I haven't had the time to participate in some of the many naturist activities
going on locally (New England) so haven't met many single women, and I don't
see a lot of single (or unaccompanied) women at the location I frequent during
the summer.

| An alternative to meeting a naturist partner, is to make one.
Take someone and introduce them to it. Just don't force them
into it or otherwise make a big fuss.

I've have a few friends from the past who were always interested in
going to a nude beach, but would never carry through with it. I ended up going
alone. Now I have a lot of friends who will go!

| 308.6 | you'ld be surprised | NODEMO::DITOMMASO | I cant get use to this lifestyle | Wed May 01 1991 20:07 | 17 |

Actually, I'm not single, however was dating a bit lately, meeting
some new people, ..
I've found that quite a few women (or actually most of whom I met)
were open minded to it. My girlfriend was shy but willing to try,
now she really doesn't want to sunbath unless its nude, and really
only likes nude beaches. We both really enjoy the NENA events too!
I'd say if you make a close enough friendship with someone they'll
have an open mind to most all of your interests.
The girls who I thought would be shy and reserved, were all very open
minded to nude sunbathing and wanted to try! So, dont be shy about
asking someone who you've gotten to know and feel comfortable with.

| 308.7 | Try SINGLES. Worked for us. | ELWOOD::CHRISTIE | | Fri May 03 1991 17:45 | 9 |
| I just met someone who had an anonymous entry in SINGLES today. We
went to SOLAIR. It was my first time being nude in public. There
was one other person there so I guess it qualifies as "public." I
really enjoyed "Seymour" (he wishes to remain anonymous) and SOLAIR
as well as the freedom from clothes. We plan to visit more places
as the weather gets warmer.
