If you can't make the effort with your profile why should anyone make the effort to reply to you? It comes across as lazy and I wouldn't want a lazy meet. Mrs | |||

To many guys on here think it’s going to be easy like just send a message and a cock pic . Yes it’s a swingers site but yes single guys still need to put some effort in | |||

" your profile is the reason why I haven't bothered making an effort because it seems to be a bit pointless. I had a profile before when I used dab a long time ago and it wasn't much better than what I have now." To be honest (and quite harsh). After reading that. If you messaged me I would decline. If you can’t be *bothered* to write a decent profile & take some decent pictures, why would I assume you’d make any effort with your appearance, hygiene or bedroom skills. I’m sorry lack of effort is a massive turn off. | |||

"Can single men be successful on here without going to organised social events or swinging clubs. I feel if you are not in some sort of clique or if you haven't got a bbc it's pretty much a waste of time ." Absolutely, OP. They can and I have. Success is a subjective concept but I have met some really great people in and out of the forum. I have never been to a social (but I will) and, whilst I’ve been to clubs, I had enjoyed slidy pump pump fun sexytime with those people before also playing in a club. One’s chap is a nice shade of brown but it’s far from big or black. It is definitely a cock, though. I have put up some varied pictures, written a bio about me, what I like and what I’m looking for, and I play the game. Obviously it’s more swing-and-a-miss than hits, but occasionally I’ve connected with someone fun. As with anything in life, effort = reward. | |||

While I mostly agree, all the effort in the world means nothing if they are not attracted to you, and depending upon our own preferences also the chance of success is rather small in the grand scheme of things. A man's success is largely still dictated by women (on here), that's not to say we can't guide ourselves towards success. Some men effort or not will simply have more success than others, or at the very least more opportunity for it. That is when it comes down to as you say success being subjective and how much stock we place in what it means to be successful. | |||

I have put up some varied pictures, written a bio about me, what I like and what I’m looking for, and I play the game. Obviously it’s more swing-and-a-miss than hits, but occasionally I’ve connected with someone fun. As with anything in life, effort = reward. While I mostly agree, all the effort in the world means nothing if they are not attracted to you, and depending upon our own preferences also the chance of success is rather small in the grand scheme of things. A man's success is largely still dictated by women (on here), that's not to say we can't guide ourselves towards success. Some men effort or not will simply have more success than others, or at the very least more opportunity for it. That is when it comes down to as you say success being subjective and how much stock we place in what it means to be successful. " Absolutely agree with this, my friend. I couldn’t possibly say that I was successful 100% of the time, because there are people I have wanted to meet that haven’t wanted to meet me. But then I write that off not as a lack of success, but as a product of life. I’d like to play mummies and daddies with Rachel Riley but, if I asked her, she’d say no (leaving aside her blissfully happy marriage and two kids). That’s not a lack of success, it’s just personal preference. I get to play mummies and daddies with enough great people to satisfy my appetite and I regard that as success. | |||

"Definitely, contrary to what a lot of guys say about this site it isn’t difficult you just have to make an effort and send proper messages, same as on any site. The numbers of men is irrelevant if you are who someone wants to know and meet " Not sure I wholly agree with this, while it is down to whether they want to meet you, it is possible to create the perfectly constructed message and it can still go unread if it's buried among the many "Faf" messages. It's a big reason why I've pretty much stopped sending the first message as it started to feel like a fool's errand | |||

"Tbf if you sent an amazing first msg and some great pics, then your profile wouldn't really matter." If we only send messages to people that are attracted to us then our profiles can possibly put them off | |||

"Your attitude is poor and your profile says nothing about you Woe is me attitude wont get you anywhere why should women meet you Woe is me attitude ? Can you define this please Your bio is literally 1 line and seems like a half arsed line as well I know my profile is never going to be any good the way it is. This forum was not about profile advice though." OP, you’re absolutely right - it wasn’t a thread asking for profile advice. BUT - You asked whether we think men can be successful on fab without going to socials or clubs, without being in a clique or having a monster member. The answer is yes, absolutely they can. But it largely comes down to a good profile and gold messages. We can’t see what messages you’ve sent so attention was naturally drawn toward your profile, such as it is. Posing questions like this will draw attention to you and you should be prepared for that, especially if you’re bemoaning success of other men on characteristics and behaviour to which you’re not prepared to commit. | |||

The numbers of men is irrelevant if you are who someone wants to know and meet Sure it wouldn't be so difficult if I had the attitude of a any holes a goal kind of man. Not saying you are. Not at all, if you’re a bottom feeder on here you might even find it much harder here than if you have high standards because you’re just one of the Horde and that’s when numbers are against you Am I a bottom feeder because of my profile ? Tbh, yes. Just one in a thousand other guys who just scream zero effort." So I'm a bottom feeder Haha I like that | |||

Okay I gather bottom feeders are not successful " I didn’t call you a bottom feeder (thought that was another term for rimming ) - but I wouldn’t even open a message from a profile with a silhouette and no text. I put a hell of a lot of effort into my profile - similarly I put a hell of a lot of effort in when I meet someone. If someone makes zero effort into their profile I assume - rightly or wrongly - that they’d put zero effort into out meet too. | |||

"This is an interesting forum topic. So firstly, as I believe others have said. You have to define success. Very few men are going to sign up to an account here and have women and couples beating down their doors. There are some. They’re either unbelievably stunning, have muscles for days or cocks longer than my arms. As we are all firstly taken by the way someone looks (oh don’t deny it ) this is simply life. Then you must consider the numbers. I’m blessed to have some wonderful female and couples as friends. I know that they receive hundreds of winks, fabs and messages per day. So for us ‘normal’ folk, standing out from the crowd can be tough. And we haven’t yet factored in the disparity in numbers. For every single woman or couples profile you’d have to conservatively estimate, say, 10?, 20? Single male profiles. So what can be done about it. Firstly as others have said, no profile pic or lack of effort on the profile is not going to lead to anything eye catching. It’s not hard to put up some nice pictures (I hate selfies, it takes twenty pics to find one I kinda like, and it’s nerve wracking sharing). It has to be done. Secondly it isn’t too difficult to write a profile that is formatted into three simple paragraphs: Who are you? Why are you here/what are you looking for? What do you offer? If you haven’t made some kind of an effort you’re not going to get noticed. It’s like being at a party and not saying hello to anyone. What did you think was going to happen? If you’re looking for a quick hookup then with the above guy may or may not get lucky. Some people are into that and more power to them. However swinging I think is a different story, swinging is as much about the community as the naughty antics. Therefore I’d suggest using the forums, contributing, letting your personality come out. Someone may well read something you write and think ‘oh he’s a nice guy’. After all attraction is great, but without laughter, intrigue, comfort, and compatibility it will only go so far (in my opinion). After all we can all have sex, but great sex is presumably why we’re all here. Anyhoo enough of my utter waffle. To answer the question at hand. Men can be ‘successful’ here in meeting people without socials or clubs. I wouldn’t discount those avenues as any time with folk on the same wavelength has to be a good idea. The fantastic friends I have here, those that I have met, and those I hope to meet in future would suggest that if I, a generally average guy, can meet people then you (being a single guy who might be reading this) can too. And now for a breather, I really should shut up. " Put your feet up | |||

" your profile is the reason why Yours is not much better tbh But she's a woman, l see your point but a woman here doesn't have to make the same effort in anything that a single guy has to, wether they know it or not Women do rule the jungle here." This is bull actually. Any woman or couple who can't be arsed making an effort doesn't deserve any effort in return. Of course they will be inundated with messages but are they really the quality messages they are expecting? No-one rules this jungle except in their own heads. Treat people as equals and speak to them as individuals rather than as a collective and you will discover that those almighty pedestal dwelling women have just as many issues and self doubts as everyone else. | |||

"Okay I gather bottom feeders are not successful Ask yourself; should they be? Yeah " Okay. So the next question becomes: why? Why should women lower their standards, or rather drop them entirely? Let’s reverse it: how many “bottom feeder” women are you willing to lower your standards for? | |||

" your profile is the reason why I haven't bothered making an effort because it seems to be a bit pointless.

"Can single men be successful on here without going to organised social events or swinging clubs. I feel if you are not in some sort of clique or if you haven't got a bbc it's pretty much a waste of time ." Of course you can. But getting yourself to socials etc help. What doesn't help and never will is a blank profile. There is nothing to go on for anyone, your page is a chance to sell yourself. Blank pages like yourself often get deleted without being read. | |||

It takes some gumption for a man to post threads like these without getting lambasted." I don’t agree with this - people will and do respond if they want to. When your inbox is overloaded it’s because you’re choosing to ignore messages and so the ones on the top are more likely to get replied to than older ones. If they don’t and become old/unread just assume they were not interested enough to notice you. Maybe try again to be sure and then just accept it - they are not interested - and move on I think guys who claim to write ‘perfectly crafted’ messages but keep getting ignored and have no success just because the women get too many messages are misguided. It’s always the same story with whiners on here , they blame everyone but themselves | |||

Of course you can be succesful. if ypu are respectful, confident and check your spelling/grammar when messaging (also dont copy paste your message, they can tell). tasteful pics help or pics that show what you are interested in. i have been to one swingers club way back in 2015. yet i have met a few women over the years. | |||

I'm not in a clique, don't have a BBC (or BWC) just a LWC but, do have a positive attitude & love a good old laugh. It's not all doom and gloom for single guys but, you just need to relax, put some effort in and realise it's not all about the sex. | |||
