"It’s all about the chase for some. Helps shine there ego.
Women and couples do it too, not just men. "
Considering the ratio of men to women I’d say more men will do it. Just a opinion |

Do you send pics or talk about sex? Some men just want a wank and have no intention of meeting.
Don't take it personally. X |

"A lot of ladies do it to may just be me "
I’m sure they do too
I do think sometimes that people find it harder to say they’ve changed their minds than to be honest

Honestly OP, if I’m at the stage of asking for a meet I’ve gotten to know someone and I’m expecting a yes!
I know it happens But I have no idea why anyone would back out of a meet they have arranged, especially as lots of guys complain how hard to get a meet it is! |

I dont know about others but I think some just like the idea of meeting and some of the dirty take that comes with it. As soon as a meet is arranged they go silent.
Like I said. I don't speak for all. I have had some great meets on here |

"This has happened to us quite a few times. Don't know if thats the reason but we have had more cancellations than meets
They must have been bonkers  "
Tell them that  |

I’ve been cancelled a few times ... I take it that they’re not as single as they would like, that the idea of meeting turn them on but the reality is that they just can’t get away ... I only meet at weekends |

Sadly it happens, not just men, although it seems mostly.
Perhaps it's the whole Charlie large potatoes thing. Combined with the fact they're used to being turned down. And just bottle it. Its happened even after weeks of talking, planning etc. No great loss tbh, they're just an addition to our already amazing sex life. We can be a bit intimidating because we are so into each other. Not something we desperately need.

Given the ratio I'd say it's blimming obvious.

Think anyone is allowed to have a change of heart whatever their reasons, so long as they let you know in good time then while it may be disappointing its not the end of the world.
It's the ones that say nothing and leave people hanging I don't get. |

What if somethings actually come up
some people on here can have a lot going on and want to do you in the worst way but gets a call or email that changes things
It’s tough when you don’t know then personally |

Yup, I had this for a social yesterday. Clearly lost his bottle. Messed my early evening right up! |

Fully sympathise with that and if I like someone enough to meet them I'm happy to rearrange. I do get a lot of cancellations who then become very vague when you try to rearrange though.
No massive deal, just one of those peculiarities of fab - it doesn't happen anything like as frequently on hookup sites or dating sites. |

Had this a few times. Not just single guys but also couples. Interesting what excuses come out. Did end up meeting a cracking guy after we were stood up. |

I'm glad you said that.
I'd been nervous for weeks before a meet with a couple in my city. Chatted for months. Spent ages preparing myself. Ordered the cab on the night, thought I'd message while in the cab to say 'on my way'.......and I'd been blocked.
Never felt so disheartened. |

I've had it quite the other way.... the amount of times I've been stood up at the last minute is ridiculous...
But as I'm a good natured fella I dont let it dishearten me, and have met some amazing people here, had some amazing fun, and will continue to do so!
Those that dont rock up are the ones losing out |

Thats probably why most women say no. Lol.
I can't stand people who piss you about. If you want to meet turn up if you don't just say you wanna chat. Sorry to you for the dickheads that give us a bad image. |

Don't let people like that affect your confidence. Perhaps they got cold feet and didn't dare admit it. Perhaps it was a dodgy couple and he arranged a meet that she didn't know about. Or they had a row.
Try and see it as a lucky escape. Because it really was. You wouldn't want to meet someone that would do that. X |

Thank you so much.
Yeah I'm not letting it get in way of another potential meet (which is getting rarer and rarer!), and yes I think I did dodge a bullet there because I've seen them in a different light. Xx |

Our observations of this site.
Most men here despite their profiles are married/attached. They want a shag, they want it now and they don't care who they shag. It has to be quick and discreet.
Numerous men arrange meets and do not turn up!
No men that fit the criteria that we are looking for are prepared to put in any effort for a long-term friendship with benefits.

"Dont get why bother asking if your not going to go thru with it"
Assumption that it's done purposely?
Can't a guy change his mind/get attack of nerves too? |
Reply privately, Reply in forum +quote

Possibly a couple of reasons
1. Can they perform how they say they can?
2. Something valid (it is possible)
3. Apathy
I have managed to arrange one meet, waited and she never showed, excuse given along with apologies. I said not to worry I was okay with it and thereafter I was ignored.
Ever since then nothing not even a nibble |

Yes, but it's a sign of being a bit flaky |

A few years back I cancelled a meet a couple of days before after a family emergency, and all that followed was a torrent of abuse.
Simply not showing up is a shitty thing to do and I've been on the receiving end numerous times, but real life does happen from time to time. |

"To get a meet on here as a single male is extremely hard and you have to put in a huge amount of effort so why some one would back out at the last minute us beyond me"
Even more soul destroying when you see someone you'd just love to meet (but age, body shape, distance etc is against you) and you see them post saying 'blown out again' You just sit there thinking 'fecking idiot'! |

I have had it on another site try to arrange a meet and it like tumble rolling though like in a western lol..
Been lucky on here so far, Like said previously it's sorting out the dross from the genuine but at the end of the day you can only go on what people message you. |

I was part of a couple she wanted to have a threesome with a woman. I was up for it she found someone all plans in place to meet 3 hours before we were all due to meet for a social. My partner at the time backed out saying she didn't want to do it. Couldn't be with a woman. That was 2 years ago she still looks talks sends photos to woman but won't go all the way. It's a shame cos you build it all up to be let down. Keep looking and just enjoy the chatting. |

I’ve never asked anyone for a meet without being fully committed to turn up, and have never failed to make any meets so arranged.
I have however, been let down by couples, and (in the main), solo females...... |

"Never backed out but had 3 women back out for me, sat like a dick in pub for ages lol"
They get 15 minutes, or until the coffee/pint has been d*unk. If you’ve not heard from them by that time, they aren’t coming mate. Don’t forget to block, as chances are, you were a ‘Plan b’ |

Sometimes it can be a man who created a female profile. We had a few supposed cpls messaged us but the profiles had no pics at all. |

Unfortunately with sites likes this it’s the nature of the beast,
I don’t arrange a meet unless I know I can, have gained a little trust between us and convinced we’re genuine, and there’s attraction there.
Fabs is full of fake profiles and dreamers, both men women and couples can be as bad, the genuine ones are few and far between on here now,
we’ll that’s from my perspective |

If I back out then it’s with my sleeves rolled up and my arm on the passenger seat headrest whilst looking through the rear window.
Mirrors are for shaving or checking my piles.
