By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

Just curious do you have more meets on fab or tinder?

This will probably mostly apply to singles and not those who are a couple.

As a couple we use FS.

We also play separately and like to use a different platform for that.

Ruth gets lots of meets from the Badoo dating app.

Shaz gets his from bumble.

Neither of us likes Tinder.

Is it daft to think dating sites should be for actual dating, and sites like FS or other hook up sites used for that.

I know people use sites how ever the heck they like. It used to annoy me no end, when i joined certain sites with a view to finding a meaningful relationship, 2/3 of the blokes on there just wanted a quick shag. Giving it all the talk about wanting to settle down but really just wanting a leg over.

I feel like FS is better site as you know its about a lifestyle where sex plays a large part. I had more meets on fab than tinder.

You can usually state your intentions on your profile setup.We both make it clear what we are looking for but yes we take your point . Men who state they want a relationship when the only relationship they are interested in is the one between their cock and your pussy .

One of my only issues with this site is because it is so taboo that people don't show face pics. So you're most times winking, messaging someone who might have a lovely body but then you see their face and you're not interested. I feel horrible at that point because I've shown interest in them and then to say, sorry you're not my type.

For me that's why I prefer tinder and yea I get it fab is more straight to the point but I still feel there are lots more time wasters here than on tinder tbh.

I'm sure you're gorgeous, but I know exactly what you mean, it feels like because of the ratio of men to women on here, men probably lower their standards, once they've finished they probably wouldn't look twice at me again. Thats what it feels like anyway, I mean i'm not looking for a bloody relationship on here but staying mates after would be nice, even just for the odd catchup every now and again, I hate feeling used.

While I would much prefer to meet someone that way, I don't ever get approached on a night out and I don't have the confidence to chat someone else up.

Also nights out with friends are about being with them and having fun with them. Family, work and the last two years have made them so rare. It's more important to just focus on them

I hoped that dating site would have in breaking the ice , remove the lack of confidence and get the initial match once filters and interests are aligned.

Been on & off sites for a few years and never had anything meaningful .

If I want a hookup I'll turn to a hookup site - very easy to find what I want there.

If I'm looking to date I'll sign up to a dating site. Doesn't happen very often because I'm not suited to relationships, but when I sign up I can usually find enough dates to get the urge out of my system for a few years.

I'm not using fab as a hookup or dating site, so I use this very differently because I'm looking for different things on here.

Lol I disagree I have sent very polite messages and they've been ignored either unread or read and not replied to, it's cool I just keep it moving honestly. I'll either send an introduction message or reply to a status and even sometimes here on games on the forum, my messages get ignored lol.

And while I get that women get tons of messages, there are still guys out there who send respectful messages and get ignored so I don't really place a lot of weight when women say they'll only reply to nice messages etc, I always say this women reply to who they fancy, if they fancy you, as a guy you can get away with a lousy opening message.

Absolutely nothing is wrong with single mums….but again it goes down to the fact of preference….some guys can’t handle that women come with children….it’s a silly preference if you ask me….but everyone is entitled to their own!

Much more interest on FAB.

Only had one date from Tinder in 2 years of being on it.

What I've noticed with Tinder is that it is full of people that want a one night stand, or a long term relationship / marriage. Neither are what I'm looking for.

FAB on the other hand offers me the chance to find people who want a connection and more than a one night stand, but not a relationship. That's what I've looked for and found.

Sending 100s of messages?

See that is what you are doing wrong. Don't just send out junk mail to every woman on the site that you fancy, actually read the profiles, and try to gauge if you may actually interest them, then send a meaningful message to them.

In the 2 years I've been here I doubt I've sent anywhere near 100 first messages, and my response rate is probably about 80%

If you just want a quick no questions asked fuck, Tinder probably is easier.

"Just curious do you have more meets on fab or tinder?

This will probably mostly apply to singles and not those who are a couple.

For most single males you would probably have as many meets on pink Cupid .com than fab.

Lots of guys say POF is good but I always found it was just full of single mums. Maybe if that’s what your into but can honestly say I only ever got 2 dates out of POF while tinder I’ve had over 150 meets and a handful of relationships from it

What’s wrong with single mums?

Who says something was wrong with them? I just don’t date them and found POF to be mostly them "

Fair enough but you’ve worded it as though there is. ‘Pof is good but I always found it was just full of single mums’

Same here lovely. When your husband dies, not much you can do about being a single mum.

When I’ve been on dating sites before Ive seen a lot of profiles that say ‘I’ve got no baggage’

I always had my profile set to say my children aren’t baggage, they rock.

Sending 100s of messages?

See that is what you are doing wrong. Don't just send out junk mail to every woman on the site that you fancy, actually read the profiles, and try to gauge if you may actually interest them, then send a meaningful message to them.

In the 2 years I've been here I doubt I've sent anywhere near 100 first messages, and my response rate is probably about 80%

If you just want a quick no questions asked fuck, Tinder probably is easier.

I personally don’t think so, I think there are quite a few men myself included similar to him. I think it all depends on what you are after, and how you go about it. I think here one of the big comparisons is you can make friendships and connections then take it from there. All my friends/meets have been pretty much off the forum finding mutual interests "

Weirdly enough I’ve had more spur of the moment “come over let’s fuck” from fabs

The majority of my meets from tinder involve a date that usually evolves into some fwb situation. And as a said. A good handful of relationships

I find it very odd that guys that do well on here do really badly on tinder. Very strange.

I’d agree that the best thing to do on fabs is just to go to clubs/socials. That seems to really help with getting into the scene. But with clubs charging 2x as much for single men, plus the stigma of single men going to clubs alone, and the fact that socials are few and far between, I prefer to stick to tinder where I have literally 10,000s of women all within 10 miles of me.

Anyway, I did a flip search on here looking for guys - it’s like 200:1 so for for a guy, into girls, you’re better off with Tinder or maybe just standing naked on a hillside in the dark.

And they do.

But Tinder has a much more balanced number of males to females, which is shy the approach works better there.

But that approach just doesn't sit well with me, and seems to generally just find you more fafs than friendships.

Fair enough, to all their own. I just felt the level of effort put into tinder was met with better meets, better friendships, fwbs and relationships compared to fabs.

The majority of many guys experience on fabs seems to be messages going unread or ignored no matter what they do. If you don’t fall into that category then fantastic, but I truly believe most guts would get more out of their time on tinder, purely for the fact that when you message someone, it’s because they already says yes to you by swiping, as opposed to here where you could spend time crafting messages for people that aren’t looking for you

I've been enjoying the pleasures that the entire wierd and wonderful world of cyberspace courtship has to offer for more years than I care to remember now, so I'm well placed to take a balanced view, and make comparison.

The problem with dating sites is that you will encounter people from every end of the social spectrum, the vast majority of of whom are going to leave you just shaking your head, and thinking, "What am I doing here!" Because my quality time is limited, and valuable to me, which means that I am here to maximise it, I don't waste it with people who I have no connection with or a meeting of minds.

Fab offers a platform for those of us who are very sexual people, who are acutely aware that fantastic sex is the glue that binds a successful relationship together, to meet with others who have the same outlook on life, who are not narrow minded or judgemental, or warped by jealousy and possesiveness. Try finding those qualities on ordinary run of the mill dating sites!

To my way of thinking, fab is for those of us who know where we are going in this game of life, and what we want out of it, with people that excite us, and with whom we want to explore the depths of erotisism together.

What's more, it's free! That kinda leads me to draw the conclusion that fab is as good as it gets, and in a league of its own.

This is a Dance of firstly two.

Without it can not be done.

Many will merely want to stand on the edge and watch away.

If only Actions took more of the front drivers seat.

I am in it for real live meets with whom see me for me via my bio pics etc. Meet in the flesh and make it your story!

Type away we can do that until the end of time.

Less Talk more action!!

"Ideally I would like to have a relationship with someone in this lifestyle, until I find that person, it would be nice to enjoy a regular male fwb"

FWB? Oxfordshire isn’t far from here. Just say’in! X

I started on here yonks ago and never got anywhere. Not even once! Resorted to Tinder. Haven’t got far on there either but at least they message back. Well sometimes.

It’s just numbers. On Swinging sites the ratio is 200:1. On dating sites the ratio is more like 50:50. I checked this on various sites by searching for girls then boys. That’s why the girls generally don’t message back. Their inbox’s are swamped.

Better off taking cheeky potshots on the forum or just going to a club.

Did I mention Oxfordshire is not far?

POF is better than Tinder as easier to message.

Tinder got a surprise for me as a female replied offering a glory hole experience that her partner would photo....Bearing in mind I am 60 and she was a lovely 30 year old in the quick glimpse I had of her...went there thinking that it was a 75 % wind up fake but it ended up two great meets.

"

Lots of guys say POF is good but I always found it was just full of single mums "

My main issue with PoF is that the site itself decideed a while back to limit the age range you can message, so I'm blocked from messaging, matching with or even seeing the profile of anyone under 35.

I do have some success with Tinder and Bumble, but Tinder is chock full of spammers and fakes. Bumble is OK but both sites want over £30 a month to "unbreak" the algos so people actually see you and to me that is quite a lot of money just to use a dating app considering the relatively low number of users in my area so I tend to treat myself to a subscription every few months just to make sure there are actually enough fresh faces on the site to make it worth it. Plus I've seen enough women's inboxes to know that for every one match I get, they get 20+ so the odds are frankly not that great.

OKC used to be good for me but ever since Match group took it over and it moved from ad revenue to subscription based model, that one dried up also.

As far as Fab goes, I've only ever really managed to get meets when I've been elsewhere in the country and it's a spur of the moment thing. Most of my friends and people I chat to regularly on here are 200 or more miles away.

Most of the action I get these days comes either from women I serve in the pub I work in, or the local late night bar I pop into after work. Which is OK but honestly I'd rather keep work and personal life separate, and I tend to find if I take someone home from the pub it generally stays a one night stand type thing.

I dated a guy I met on POF that introduced me to FS (fabswingers).

Have used tinder for dates but most of my relationships have come from meeting people on here.

Currently taking a "break" from meets but on feeld ( like a kinky tinder) and seeing how that goes.

Definitely dating apps in general. I've found it easier to find a FwB connection via dating apps than places like Fabswingers or Feeld.

"Just curious do you have more meets on fab or tinder?

This will probably mostly apply to singles and not those who are a couple. "

I’ve never used tinder, or pof, but do use another site alongside Fab, with ‘reasonable’ success

It was about the same tbh

But on fab it was almost a guarantee of great sex where as the other was just mediocre sex, so I deleted the other and in the fab sweet shop I played

I've had the fortune of seeing your face from another thread dm, and you are speaking nonsense!!!!! You are very pretty, so don't go shooting yourself down! If I lived closer I would be chopping my arm off for your attentions!!!!

"For single guys tinder is far better than fabs because woman have to engage on it to participate

That’s not true on here, so you can waste a lot of time on here sending 100s of unopened messages

Sending 100s of messages?

See that is what you are doing wrong. Don't just send out junk mail to every woman on the site that you fancy, actually read the profiles, and try to gauge if you may actually interest them, then send a meaningful message to them.

In the 2 years I've been here I doubt I've sent anywhere near 100 first messages, and my response rate is probably about 80%

If you just want a quick no questions asked fuck, Tinder probably is easier."

Oh here we go, Mr Billy Big bollocks telling us/me were we/im going wrong. I find comments like this somewhat patronising indeed.

Whos to say that most of men don't follow your approach? Just because things are working out for you, doesn't mean that by applying the same approach works for everyone .

Wow, hit a nerve there did I?

I was responding to a statement of fact that Tinder was better for single guys, from someone who said they have hundreds of unopened messages. I wad expressing my opinion that Tinder isn't better and that if he's sent out 100s of messages on here that's potentially what he was doing wrong, as I can't imagine each and every one of those was well thought out and sent to someone he really believes he's a match to.

I'm not telling you what to do, I'm really not fussed. Do what you like.

I have never tried Tinder. My best friend met lots of hot guys on there, but no keepers.

My plan is to join a dating site in the New Year. Not sure which one as yet.

Seems pointless putting together a message on here for

1. Some that I don’t know is even interested

2. Most messages go unopened anyways because of the 100s of message women receive on the daily

At least on tinder

1. We’ve matched, so there’s some expressed interested

2. Any message I sent is at least read.

Fabs is more of a numbers game in that it can just be luck of the draw whether your message gets seen or not. If you message someone while they are offline there’s a very good chance the message will be buried under 100s of others by the time they come online.

That’s why I choose tinder. Plus it’s got a bigger user base and the profiles are better/more interesting

I find the dating sites quite demoralising, so tend not to use them so often. I don't find FS the same as I have no expectations of meeting.

My biggest problem with Tinder is the way the filters work. If I’m looking for Ladies 50-60 within 10 miles, all will be shown. This includes (say) a 55 yo who is looking for a Guy 50-55 ( I’m older). So I’m never going to be on her radar so my right swipe is wasted. It would be a lot better if my filter only showed Ladies who have filters that match mine.

That’s how tinder works actually. You won’t be shown people if you don’t match their filters

Data analysis in 2019 showed that a man of average attractiveness can only expect to be liked by slightly less than 1% of females (0.87%) on Tinder. Add that to the OK Cupid survey findings in 2018 (80% of men are unattractive to women) and it says to me that the vast majority of men are fucked, but not in a good way.

I was on Tinder from 2015 to early 2021. In that time, I didn't get a single meet. I didn't get a single *like* after 2018.

The only site I've had any success on has been OkCupid – three meets since 2015. However, as another poster mentioned above, when it was swallowed up by Match and they tried to turn it into a Tinder clone, its usefulness fell off a cliff. Now it just suggests the same people over and over again, no matter how many times I reject them.

I personally have found no substitute for actually getting out there and visiting clubs, but the pandemic has put paid to that for the time being.

Ok, thanks for the clearing that up. Doesn’t help though, I had an excuse for the lack of interest, now I’m just an ugly grey haired Git who’s has no attractiveness

Two different sites used for two different purposes.. I would suggest that if you are using the same approach for both sites, you are misleading one set of people…..

It depends on your profile text, mine was pretty much identical so no one was being mislead . I think there’s people on both looking for sex, relationships, kink etc
