Why oh why is it so hard for men to attend these.

So many pull out at the last minute.

Surely you see the benefit of meeting other Fabbers at these. Just sayin....

I guess pulling out at the last minute is a form of contraception. Prefer to play safe.

It's quite intimidating for a single man to attend a social, it costs more for them and then they sit in a corner with no one talking to them.

Sitting in a corner not talking is down to that person. It's up to you to start interaction with other people. Don't expect everyone to come running cos you're a newbie! I was nervous at my first one of course but once you get chatting it's no bother. I had a blast

If a guy is intimidated, nervous or for whatever reason stops him from attending a social he should never ask for an invite to one. That way he frees up space for the guys who actually do want to attend, especially as there are always limited spaces for guys at most socials.

I agree.

I went to my first one on my own and survived.

Hence why there's kik groups beforehand so you get to know everyone.

I went to few socials and had great time vast majority of times. Met fantastic people and played with few. Really worth going to M&G if you are a single bloke!!

I can imagine that more guys would have actually showed up if there was less hostility displayed on forums towards our kind. There's so much negativity and constant complaints about the morons that many of the good guys not necessarily feel welcomed and prefer not to come... Even single guys say crap and generalise on forums about the other guys, as a way to beg for attention and show how much of white armour knight they are... Constant insinuations about guys being attached, where for a fact I know about single ladies (that are married) attend those and no-one bats an eye...

Same goes for our presence on socials. I experienced hostile behaviour on occasions (rarely thankfully) simply due to the fact that I am a single gent. Some couples just don't know how to behave...

I am still happy to show on M&G and socials as 90% of people attending are simply fantastic and fun and I believe it's a very good way to meet nice people. At the same time, I can understand why other single guys stay clear from such gatherings.

The only way to get rid of or reduce being anxious about doing anything in life, including socials, is to face your fear and do it. I would most definitely have been very nervous about going to a social but after attending a few I has become far easier.

However if a single lad asks for an invite and does not turn up without notifying the organizers in plenty of time so they can allow another single lad to attend then yes, it should be affect them for future invites.

I've also had to cancel a couple of times at short notice and it didn't seem to affect my getting invites afterwards..

You'll never know unless you go..

I don't think it's the cancelling at the last minute at least you would inform the organisers that you can't make it, it's the guys that ask for an invite and don't show up and don't inform the organisers that they can't make it

you're attending something that's pre organised with people you "know" online. nerves I'd imagine are a common occurrence. i have never been to one so can't comment. i see nothing wrong as long as u tell the organisers before hand

My take on it is that at any social, the host should be exactly that "a host"...

It doesn't take much imagination or social tact to integrate singletons with the couples or other singles through a simple intro or silly party games.. especially if a guy has paid as much as a couple to attend a social

Been to view in the past years, they mostly were very cliquey, i ways attended with friends from the site, but it was sad to look at the guys coming alone trying to fit in to a group with little success most of the time.

Def group up before you go, it's easier to fit in as single guy.

The ones I have been to in the Midlands and West are very friendly and not cliquey at all so be brave and jump in at the deep end... the kik groups before a social are great for breaking the ice and flirting lol

"Travelling 2-3 hours for just a cup of tea doesn't seem like the best idea "

Agreed. I consider socials to be a waste of time. It's hard enough to secure a meeting as it is for us single guys so unless it's for play I might as well go drinking with my mates and try to pull in town.

You're missing the point of them.

Socials help you get to meet people who could become future potential meets.

A lot of my individual meets were instigated by chatting at parties or socials

Single guys can be a pain for social organisers.

We normally have about 50 asking to go on the list. Message them all to confirm a week before and half never reply. Of those that confirm usuallonly a third actually attend. Those who do not cancell are then blocked The entrance for all is the same£5 per person.

We even offer to meet for a coffee before or meet them in the carpark.

As host our job is to make sure no one sits alone

We hear that all the time about single men being the ones that don't turn up.

One upcoming social sold tickets - that way if anyone doesn't turn up they're not out of pocket.

I don't whine it was my observation. And I don't think a single lady will complain about lack of attention here or on a social. Is very hard to believe anything otherwise, specially that the forum is full of complaints of single ladies about the vast amount of males contacting them.

Therefore your comment is striped from the records

Her comment is perfectly valid. Single ladies also have to 'pluck up the courage' to go to a social.

Not everyone is full of confidence

Its hard for both sexes to go alone. Men either end up in the corner after trying to make conversation with people and not being able. Or they wind up creeping on the women who are there. One I went to with a former partner was an eye opener in ways. I smoke and she didn't. First couple times I went for a smoke I came back to find her being hassled by single guys. Safe to say she came with me to smoking area then. Queen went as a single lady and was super nervous. Also got some hassle and was practically manhandled at another. Told the host but he did fuck all about it. Apparently barred him from further socials. Funny that cause the guy in question showed up at the one after.

All in all its difficult for singles to go alone but I always think of it as with any other fab related thing. Get talking to people you know are going beforehand and hopefully you don't end up in the corner. I also agree with the poster above about making sure about people not sitting alone. That is the hosts job and not just because they want to stick their dicks in them.

It was my first social and there was noone hiding in any corners, no cliques. Was a great night and i will definitely be going again. Thank god a few months apart though not able for such mad nights "

it was the people who made the mingle a success...and as hostess I made an effort to push people out of their comfort zones a bit. I felt bad seeing people sit alone. I even made people dance with me (wonder will anyone come to next social after being forced to dance ?)

I don't think anyone "creeped" on anyone...all in all a fun night down the pub xxx

i think a lot of men initially thing that "social" is some code word for orgy..... so when they are are actually told that social means socialising... the thought of actually putting in some effort and actually talking to people is just too much for some....

saying that i love them.... i am an equal oppotunity gobshite so i will natter and chatter with anyone....

Its not easy for single guys. A lot of them simply bottle it.

Good for you do the next one over this neck of the woods lol "

Ahah well, why not ! It would give me the opportunity to know a bit more about this beautiful country that is Ireland at the same time

I'm gonna think about it, but since i don't know about your "neck of the woods" (thanks by the way, i've learned a new saying!) i'll need some help to organize it, mostly about the place. But yeah could be fun (;

because most of them are not actually single, and they cant be honest about it here, and then they are chancing it... and frequently it doesnt play out for them...

Putting yourself into a single guys shoes at a social... probably feels similar to going into a nightclb all by yourself to a single man.

Yes, you might know a few people from online but your real friends won't be there... and no guy wants to be "that guy" in the corner or at the bar all on his own

Have gone to socials in a couple or group so do like to make effort & generally chat to as many people as I can, male or female... So, maybe a good group activity to get everyone more cozy at the next social (was thinking a pub quiz or something you perv!! )

"There are no strangers here only friends who have not yet met!"

Personally wouldn't be my thing! Prefer private meet with a female rather than a group meet as would be too much distractions! Plus think people have different personalities some are quiet or shy and others more out going!

"Why oh why is it so hard for men to attend these.

So many pull out at the last minute.

Surely you see the benefit of meeting other Fabbers at these. Just sayin....

"

In large part I personally think it's that a lot of 'single' fab men are not actually single...

Its that or something Irish maybe, because when Dutch men commit to something we follow through...

True probally not a long single here .once the married and attached are honest from the start about their current status and let that other person make up their own mind yay or na.

Dont think its just a irsh thing

Thinks it happens in most countrys
