I'm starting to wind down in preparation of leaving. Like everyone who goes online, I've got a mountain of numbers from this trip. Some I met, were great and their numbers will be secreted away, hopefully to be used again later. However, there are many who are cute and keen to meet but the reality is that I'll never have the time or stamina to meet everyone.
What are people doing with their surplus numbers at the end of a trip?
What's the response to "six months ago you gave me your number, want to hook up?
Is there value in keeping unused numbers, given that new up to date numbers will be so easy to get in future visits?
Thoughts?
Of course, given my situation, I'm not going to maintain on going contact from home and it may be a while before I'm able to return but I thought it was a question worth asking.
Cheers, G.

There has been contact established and cuts down on the hunting next time if it was a good experience. The only downfall to that is the inevitable begging for some money later. The ones I don't have time for are still in the phone, but are not likely to be as enthusiastic months down the road.

Cheers, G.[/QUOTE]In my case all the contacts of the people I did not meet are deleted. All these girls have short memories if they did not meet you and get your money. You can message them after three months but they would know or remember what was discussed and who you are. The ones you have met and had a good time with will hit you for money with a sob story. If you deny it is likely they will forget you also.
When my next plans are set I start all over again. Also will contact the previous girls I had a good time with. Many change numbers and not into Skype, viber or whatever. Some might have found sponsors, local BF, marriage who knows. My contacts are exclusively from dateinasia. Fortunately there are plenty of girls ready to hook up.
Sometimes I tend to help out girls for their studies within reason. Will they be available on my next trip? Some are and some are not. There are many of us foreigners looking to hook up online. Girls generally do not have any loyalty if they are meeting you for sex and money. The moment somebody else comes along promising whatever they will jump at it. Unless you are interested in serious relationship and marriage make a new list and hit up newer girls.

What are people doing with their surplus numbers at the end of a trip?[/QUOTE]The problem with keeping the surplus of contacts at the end of a trip is that they would come on top of the surplus from the end of my previous trip LOL. So it's no use to keep it, it's just way too much.
I only keep contact information of the girls that I shagged and are really worth repeating, which to be honest are not an awful lot because the majority of them belongs to the category 'average' or 'nice but nothing special'.
So I only keep the categories 'above average' and 'excellent'. Unfortunately not all of them are still around when I come back to the Phils or another part of SE Asia. I have lost contact with some really memoriable shags over the years, sigh. That's my sob story LOL.

[/QUOTE]I keep all contacts I make regardless of if I meet or not. I put them into Contacts on my dedicated "dating" iPhone (separate from my friends + family phone). I use codes in the name field to denote location (Manila, Cebu, etc), meeting status (Meet=Try to meet for first time, Rpt=Met and is worth a repeat, Pass=Never met and never want to, NoRpt=Met but not worth repeating), and what app / site I found her on. I also use the Notes section of the contact for any info I want to remember.
Viber / WhatsApp and other apps auto-sync with the iPhone Contacts so I have a single source. FB Messenger sadly does not do this and is a separate source without the above abilities, but I get alot of traffic on Messenger so its worth the hassle.

I also keep the NeverAgains (highlighted) so that I don't make the same mistake when I return.

What's the response to "six months ago you gave me your number, want to hook up? [/QUOTE]I would suggest (educated guess) that more than 50% of them will have changed their numbers within 6 months due to loss of phone, change of phone etc.
Conclusion: Ditch them and start fresh if and when there's a "next time".

Both the un-mets and met-and-repeat girls do tend to disappear at maybe a 50% rate but it's so much easier to send a quick message to an un-met than to go through the hole search process. I basically use the un-mets as the starting point upon arrival (or just before arrival) in town.

I have multiple numbers for some girls who change providers / numbers like they change panties at times. One I know had 3 phones lost / stolen / broken in 4 months! Nothing new. When they say "I wish I could send you pics" etc I immediately know this = I need cash for a phone LOL.
As RK says I forget them unless they are really worth seeing.
Anyone got tips on improving my photo based gaydar? I'm usually pretty good face to face or off videos but from photos can be difficult.
I fucked up again and wasted a few hours chat time before the big question revealed the truth.
I guess its "Ask early, ask often".
Suggestions?

However, Viber and WA accounts can be more durable if they are migrated from old numbers. Having multiple profile pics for the same contact can jog the memory.
Android also uses the main Contact list to populate Viber and WA so it's all automatic. No need to Manila update contact across multiple apps.

Hard to say but if any question best to ask than be unpleasantly surprised when (s) he drops his panties for you.

Suggestions?[/QUOTE]Once you get them to video chat then should be easier Goffering especially if they try to avoid letting you them etc. But ask if suspicious as if you don't you can be unpleasantly surprised and waste time (as you did sadly).
If they outright refuse video chat or WhatsApp chat etc then I would drop them.
Old ISG mate thought he had his gaydar perfected until he got to Cebu and scored 2 in the same day. I found it very amusing as I was at Bos while he went to do the deed etc and came back with his tail between his legs fairly quickly LOL.
