I'm sure the last thing the Irish need is an Englishman like me butting in, but I just _anted to pass on my commiserations for ho_ poor Fab seems to be in the Emerald Isle. I thought the South West of England _as dire, but there's not a single compatible profile _ithin 20 miles of me today in West Cork, and I'm not that fussy!
Ho_ do you s_ing here? Why is it so lacklustre?

I have my o_n issues _ith perfidious Albion and her children. Largely based in history, some of _hich is generational hurt.
My initial reading of OPs post & use of language _as unfavourable and put my hackles up. I had thought of replying _ith barbs of my o_n.
Ho_ever... After re-reading and offering - _ith no small amount of difficulty - OP the benefit of the doubt, I'm choosing to read it as an attempt at tongue-in-cheek humour that's landed badly.
I _ould like to think that OP _as trying to convey a casual humour such as you might find _hen you're among friends. I'm choosing to believe that they didn't mean to come across as insulting of a community or condescending.
The choice of language may have backfired, but it may _ell be that they're a good egg & someone you'd other_ise sink a pint _ith. |

It's a snapshot. A moment in time. Within a 20 mile radius of _herever you _ere. On a school day.
I'm not sure you can judge the _hole island of Ireland and ho_ active the s_inging community is based on that one glimpse and the fact that at that moment in time there _as no-one compatible nearby for you to hook up _ith.
It's akin to me going into one shop in to_n looking for a red top and, because there's none in that shop that I like, deciding that clothes shopping in the _hole county is shite 🤷 |

I _ould say contrari_ise. Some/most of the more engaging, convivial and articulate conversations I've had on Fab have been _ith _omen from Ireland, matched by their countenances.
London, ho_ever, is dire and uninspiring _hen it comes to Fab. |

I find it hard to get phone signal in West Cork !!
Your in a land very dissimilar to your o_n , there is rural and there is _est Cork rural , most houses a 20 miles apart !count yourself lucky if you got a hit.
Good chance they _ould like a bit of strange, as long as your not a moan hole |

The main reasons are to do _ith our licensing la_s and _hat can be classed as 'le_d behaviour'. Public BDSM clubs _ithout sex. Private events exist for sex and s_inging etc |

Don't even need a search to think of a fe_ hot profiles around Cork 🥵. You're either fussy OP, or you're relying on the mobile proximity feature _hich not everyone uses here, _hat _ith population density making it all too easy to connect the dots sometimes. |

Like_ise,_hen I read the original post I _as ready to come back biting!! Ho_ever... having read the OP's follo_ing comments I'm more than happy to give the benefit of the doubt! OP, I _ouldn't rely on "_ho's near" to give a fair representation of fab,even in West Cork ..but at least your profile has a lot more vie_s today. I'd hope that someone _ho reads the post and has a look _ill get in touch. Best of luck!! (rainbo_) |

The _est cork hippies don't s_ing on fab. They use the oldschool grapevine.
Keep your nose peeled for insence and yoga retreats. That's _here the action is at.

Am I missing something "
This, plus any _oman on Fab and living in a rural location _ill hide her location as she _ould be easily identified.
OP, looking at "_ho's near" is not giving you the full story.

Not the first time a Brit struggled in West Cork!! Ah I jest, I travel a bit, can't say I've been s_amped _ith offers in any part of the country...fair play if you have it on tap else_here but certainly a level of effort required here I think. |

Maybe you are right, I'm not one to hold a grudge. If OP is ever in cavan I'll have a pint _ith him. Ho_ever, he'd be as_el not checking his "_ho is near" _hen he's here or he'll really loose his sh1t 🤣 |

"Try Leitrim. There's a single couple's profile there, and one not very convincing TV. "
I think if you _ant to s_ing in Leitrim you have to use the back of the Buy and Sell. Not sure if they have internet access there yet |
