Description: | |
πDo you ever receive a letter and wonder "Did she even read my letter?" This is aimed to AVOID those (monologue) types of pals. This is for those looking for dialogue (a two way conversation) style. This swap is for those who: πKeep their pal in mind/profile in mind when writing and truly RESPOND to profiles/letters (in this case, reading their profile and commenting) πLike a 2 way conversation with a pal; asking questions RELATED TO THAT SPECIFIC PERSON; enjoy a dialogue vs. monologue πTend to write longer letters. π40+ years of age (there are other swaps for other ages; let's celebrate 40+!) This is for potential pals who are willing to put in the effort to get to know their partners and see if they're a match for ongoing pen palling, which can lead to wonderful friendships! It's not about just getting something in the mail. It's QUALITY over QUANTITY. πRating based on whether it was obvious that your partner actually read your profile (obvious as in they conversed about multiple topics you mentioned in your profile; if they did that and sent on time, it's a 5.)β The requirement is to read the profile and focus on the person you're writing to in your letter and comment on their profile, ask questions about them specifically, etc. This is not a 1 page kind of letter; it should be longer than that, but no length requirement. Hopefully you will gain a pal or two, but keep trying if you don't get a long term match; it can take several swaps. I usually have a monthly swap like this for those of us that are about QUALITY over quantity!! (And I have "met" some AWESOME friends here--sometimes they join these!) π€·ββοΈYou can be new or seasoned, but you MUST have a well filled-out profile about YOU (not about anyone else, or THINGS) to join this swap. If your profile is not something that would be a good conversation starter, it's fine, but it's not meant for this swap. |
