You came for the sex but have you found something, or someone that you didn't expect on fab? An interaction that delighted you, comforted you or made you feel seen?
Tell me all about it.

I have asked this because I had a lovely call last night from a fabber I haven't even met yet who was checking in to see how I was, we had a chat and he stayed on the phone and sang to me until I fell sleep. Surprising and delightful.
If you had asked me yesterday morning I would have rolled my eyes and said that sounded cheesy, maybe it was but goodness I felt happy this morning. |

I have found Fab to be an environment of delightful surprises. I'm not talking about the forå (Nocturnal Thread excepted), but the willingness and amenability of all those wonderful folk that I have met personally. Each new friend and connection brings with them their own unique colour, quirkiness and surprises.
Mediocrity and repetition doesn't seem to exist in the personalities of those in my fab social circles.
And then there are those who are emotionally close to me...I cannot divulge, except they are a hard habit to break.
Here endeth my whimsical waffle.

I was really unsure when I first signed up to fab.
“Is it for me”, “will it be just full of weird people” “what is a swinger?” And many questions more besides.
I was very ready to leave, not having answered many of the my initial questions I didn’t want to waste anyone’s time.
When out of the blue I was contacted by someone whom I made a connection with, a true swinger. A very patient one, who was happy to answer any and all questions.
I plucked up the courage to make a meet, I found some friends, and more than one connection with people I speak to regularly and would consider ‘friends’. An experience or two was had, and even now there are many more experiences to be had and it never fails to make me smile when I have the pleasure of interacting with someone who naturally puts a smile on your face.
As others have eloquently said, you do at times have to wade through craziness, and sometimes you mess up when you didn’t intend to. But there’s a great community here if you’re patient enough to find them |

"I found one of the most important people in my life on here nearly 4 years ago.
It's a lot of shite to filter through at times. But it can be worth it "
I suppose like in life even on fab you have to filter through the shite to find the important people. I am so glad it has been worth it for you |

Wade through the craziness and be patient to find the friends, connections, community and smiles. Yes. This is lovely. Thank you for sharing. |

We found each other on here and that was a total surprise.
And since starting our couples profile we have met some fantastic people and have a regular guy and a hot lady who we consider as friends too…
We are very lucky

I joined for sex but now that's off the menu, but I've found supportive people in my journey of overcoming being a shut-in that don't realise that words can make a difference |

I feel I have been so lucky with both the people I have met in real life through fab and many contacts I am yet to meet from here. Some absolutely fantastic connections who lift my spirits and make me appreciate my world. I’m not really meeting at the moment, certainly no one new, due to a lot of life laundry but I’m really enjoying having so many wonderful fab friends x |

2 1/2 years ago a random cheeky message off of the back of a thread I found something I didn't know i was looking for. We've just celebrated our 2 year anniversary and looking forward to many more years together
I also found friends that even though we don't talk often I know I can message in an instant and its like no time has passed xx

I have one lovely fab friend I recently reconnected with and he's been checking in with me, I think every single day, whilst I'm going through some shit stuff.
And also another who've I've got friendly with, similar issues so we can rant to each other and totally get it!
I appreciate them both very much |

I am for sure going to be using the phrase life laundry from now on! Having people to lift your spirits is so important. I am delighted Fab brought you some of these people. |

"I think for me it’s the friends I’ve made here that I honestly never expected. I mean true friends, people you can call on in a crisis (and them me) and know that we’ll be there for each other. "
When people will be around in the shit times then you know they are worth being around the great times. I am delighted you have found them. |

I’ve bored too many people or made them want the sick bucket from listening to our story.
The short version is that fab changed my life, I met the woman of my dreams, we now live together and are about as committed as it gets (something I never thought would happen to me) and I’m still wondering when I’m going to get woken up..
You still need the bucket don’t you?
Anything is possible, even in the unlikeliest of places.

Fab friend appreciation. Maybe that should be another thread one day.
I hope you manage to wade through the shit and come out smelling of roses on the other side asap. |

I've stayed on longer this time than most previous sojurns on Fab, cos of the Lounge threads. It's nice to communicate with people who have such varied backgrounds and who I would not meet in my normal everyday life. Some are still virtual friends, others are great for a walk, a coffee, a picnic or the occasional dalliance |

Just over two years ago we found each other. Neither of us were looking and yet...
I've also found the best people I know, friends who are closer than any I've had in my life and who I absolutely know have my back when and if needed, as I do them.
And there's been some sex
Posh |

"Honestly the forums are fun I could grab a box of popcorn and just scroll for hours reading half the hilarious stuff on them"
Sometimes Fab makes me want to burn the internet down and other times it breathes life into my cynical humourless heart. Today it has been the later. I hope the popcorn is salty to balance out all this sweetness. |

It can certainly be an eye opener and even sometimes a leg opener. I am delighted you are getting to meet so many different people. |

Love AND friendship that is closer than any you have had in your life. I am so happy for you. Now use your powers to help me to find these things. |

I can't actually remember how I found her but I moved to the area and asked her for advice then we chatted back and forth and funnily enough I was walking to the pub for a social when she drove past stopped and asked if I was (my real name) I said yeah we had a quick chat then we arranged a wine date and it went from there. She's my little boys god mother and house sits and dog sits when I'm on holiday. I'm so lucky to have met her |

I have nice feet for a guy. Hit me up I'll show you!
She didn't, but I have had it sucked before. And big toe obviously. Most like it big right? |

I've met a few people that I've enjoyed talking to but other wise nope no absolutely outstanding experiences/life changing/important people.
However, I do stay for the forum. It is amazing! Its a comedy show in a scroll. |
