Started out couples camming then went solo?
Hi! I just applied for MyFreeCams and I am curious to whether anybody on here started out couples camming and then went solo and what were the results?
I feel like because theres not many couples that I have a slight advantage, but I have heard from a lot of people on SM that I should be without my husband, or they make him leave the room. (He Doesnt)
Now if I do stream on MFC I will of course have it seem like I am single and alone and all that,
I just don't know how the transition is going to work out for me
Re: Started out couples camming then went solo?
if you decide to cam on MFC you will have to kick him out of the room. they'll ban you for as little as hearing his voice.
I've cammed on a couple of sites when my s/o's were in the same room and I was never a fan. When I'm alone, it's easier to focus on the task at hand verses being paranoid that they don't make any noise or come into the shot. If he can't take being locked out of a room for a few hours, mfc may not be a good fit for you. I'd stick with cb and sm for couples stuff (or even solo camming with him in the same room).

I planned on having my own setup in my living room or hangin out in my bathtub while I was on MFC.

I'd say 99% of the time that's how it goes. Guy goes nuts thinking he found the easy money...and then girl alone makes 10x more in an hour than their $6 they made together all week on Chaturbate. We see this a lot. Very few M-F couples have a good showbiz dynamic or on-cam chemistry that you need to make it work well.

What KatyB said. I cammed with mine for awhile and he was too much of a deaf, mute, dork on cam. It made me super uncomfortable and I had to carry the whole show. He had no idea how to keep things at the best angle and he just clammed up. No whitty banter whatsoever that I like.
Do I make more money now. Yup. 6x? No. Lol. And I never tell the guys I have someone. I feel it kills the deal for them. There are a few that Are married and want to feel like they're cheating with another married, but overall they want the single slut fantasy. MFC has it right in that aspect.

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN. He has no idea how to "act". Just a grumpy old man. lol
So I was thinking of pulling the whole "My husband doesn't know I'm camming" thing.
Any ideas?

It's nice having customers who respect the fact that this is my job and that I do have a life and a happy relationship outside of it. Not to mention, if I lie about being single, oftentimes guys won't want to pay me. They hear "single" and then see it as an opportunity to try to date me in real life - either that, or they'll be assholes and troll me with phrases like "Oh, well no wonder you're single." Regulars also tend to get way more clingy and obsessive if they think I'm "available", so that's not the fantasy I want to push.
As for couples camming, I've done it successfully but that's likely because of things Katy mentioned. We had a good on-screen chemistry and both have playful personalities. We'd get 5-10 people joining our private shows on SM, so the money added up fast. But ultimately, it messed with our sex life, and I preferred to focus on camming solo. I don't see any benefit in starting out as a couple with the intent to transition into solo camming, unless perhaps it's the way you prefer to get your feet wet. (That was actually my reasoning. I was too anxious to cam alone, then I got the hang of it with my BF, and then I was more comfortable to do it myself.)
Woo I am glad I wont feel embarrassed saying it now but it's messing with our sex life soo bad it's not even funny. We are still newly-weds and I just don't want to have problems.
I didn't think I would have to start couples-cam and go solo. But i'm still gonna stay on SM with him, we don't do too bad but it's much more my willingness to do things rather than our chemistry. I'm gonna try to bubbly him up a little when we start streaming.

Do you mind if I ask how it messed up your sex life? My fiance keeps talking about trying out couples camming.
Re: Started out couples camming then went solo?
MFC has been going great and i'm really glad I was making money because we would have been off SM anyway because of his heart attack.
So now I am able to not feel so anxious when I cam because the poor thing has been bed ridden for so long.
But since we've stopped camming together (all the way up until the heart attack) our sex live had gone back to normal and it's awesome!
Wish I would have started out this way
