How do you message these people?
What do you say?
Your profile reads very generic at the moment... Or maybe they're superficial enough to be put off by your blindness. Maybe go into more detail as to what form of blindness you have.
I'm sure you are genuine and perfectly decent, but women get swamped in messages from men all the time sadly. There are way more men than women here.
I know this isn't much, but I hope something here helps |

"They aren’t interested in you. Focus on those who are 
I try but it's not easy"
Women get lots of messages. It’s hard to reply to them all.
They also receive abuse for rejecting me. It’s easier just to blanket ignore the men they aren’t interested in.
Don’t take it to heart. |

Welcome to Fab, OP
Just be yourself, let a bit of your personality come through, and show that you've read their profile and appreciate what they're looking for here.
Many won't reply but the right ones will Good luck! |

"They aren’t interested in you. Focus on those who are I try but it's not easy"
It isnt easy, I've been here for years with only a social meet to my name. Just try not to get bogged down with the rejection as you will probably get a fair bit, I know I sure do. |

I can’t understand why people take it so personally when people don’t reply?
Your probably not doing anything wrong you might not be someone’s cup of tea, don’t worry be patient and stay respectful, read the profile and I’m sure at some point you might find someone to chat with |

People deal with it differently, I was the same when I joined. |

Honestly we get a lot of messages. Can't always reply to all, especially if you're not what we're looking for. Sorry x |

Sometimes small talk can be fun with the right person without looking to meet I have had great fun with women I will never meet on here just making fun comments but never rude or downputting. |

Are you asking what you should say to them or are you telling me what you say?
I assume there are websites that mention your specific condition ?
The above still reads as generic. I've received similar myself.
Tailor your content!
What specifically did you like about the profile? What specifically about the photos?
Don't just focus on photos. This is a sex site but being treated like an object is not nice. Women get enough of that as is |

I rarely send the first message because the ladies get so many.
Lately I've had contact from some really nice forum posters and others who lurk.
Some gems here.just takes a little time to find them.

Also a good point to raise is that credit has to go to those women who actually reply and say no thank you or sorry I’m really busy and have loads of messages and will try and get back to you.
Manners cost nothing and it’s very nice to get a no thank you |

I was saying to you what I say to them in my 1st message I was trying to be polite

Unfortunately the majority of times women try a polite 'no thank you, happy fabbing' type reply we get abusive messages back...that's why many will just delete, and why the fab FAQ says that a deleted message should be taken as a 'no thank you' |

OP firstly welcome and please don't be put off by not getting replies - especially as someone relatively new to the site, it can take a while to get a feel for it, and get to know how it works and get yourself known.
Usually when people finding they're not getting replies it comes down to one of a few things:
Expectations - set them low and don't expect to get replies or even meets - treat the site like any other non-sex site
Attitude - adopt a positive, respectful and courteous attitude and you'll not go far wrong, do the opposite however and you'll just be frustrated
Approach - think about not only how you approach those you'd like to interact with but the site in general - if messaging people cold isn't working, try other ways like getting involved in the forums or chat rooms or going to group socials or clubs, all of which are great ways to get to know people, and them you.
Profile - think of it as your shop window and take a look at it and ask if it looks good and entices people into your shop for a browse or sees them walking past to the better dressed window up the road - you need to find something that makes you stand out.
Pictures - get a decent set of pics that show you in the best light - if you're unsure what will work take a look at other verified guys pics for inspiration.
None of that will guarantee anything but it will improve your experience of the site.
Appreciate to that your condition may limit what you can do in terms of text and pics, and I take my hat off to you for stepping up to try and put yourself out there. |

Messaging on fab is not a fruitful approach for many...go to an organised social and meet people face to face. Fab is a marathon not a sprint
Also your a young guy..I would balance this alternative dimension of fab with the real world...go out to pubs etc, engage in activities through social media apps for singles and meet ladies that way...
Good luck

Which is as it should be - sadly though the ladies on here have no way of knowing if you're going to do that or do a 180 and call them all the names under the sun |

I’m friends with a couple of women who have profiles on fab.
They get 100s of messages a day. Don’t take it personally.
Be happy if you get any reply at all.

It takes a long time for most sings men here to get established, even without the covid19 thing.
There are lots of posts asking for and getting profile advice, so worth checking them out.
A good range of photos lets someone else decide if they find you attractive, so get a range taken, to give others a clear impression of how you look.
It's hard work for you here and not to be undertaken unless you can cope with it and have good self-esteem and confidence. If you manage well sexually outside of here and flitting etc, then you can hone those skills for online use.
Site rules means that people won't typically send a reply, as no reply = no interest. |

Our philosophy is, never approach to chat up anyone on here who you wouldn't in person. So if someone looks out of our league we don't try our luck, otherwise you have to accept rejection.
Just our take on it. |

Almost verbatim seconded. OP, I would suggest including a joke about any spelling mistakes - if you can comfortably joke about disability, it's a good icebreaker.
Also, I really like your other photo. That shirt looks great on you! |
