Tinder is easier?!
Jump to: Newest in thread
Hi OP, before the barrage of sarky comments arrive, I'd recommend that you do a quick search through the forum as this very subject is regularly raised, and you'll find loads of help already there for you.
Good luck! |

You state you want to keep your identity under wraps but insist on people sending their face pics
I’ve just won FAB bingo with all the cliches in your profile write up
You’ve got two pics - one is a cock pic - hardly setting any fires is it.
People get out of FAB what they put in (did someone need that for their bingo card? )

Tinder is just as bad as this, if not worse. Tinder is filled with Instagram people (those that just want to take the perfect photo) and if you’re not running through the mud, running a marathon, climbing a mountain, or sat on a yacht drinking cocktails, you don’t fit in.
Fab is at least upfront with what it’s about, it’s about swingers and swinging. It’s very sex themed. So if we have comparing Tinder, which is supposedly a dating site, to a swinging site, you’re comparing apples to oranges. |

"I keep it under wraps publicly but if someone sends me a private messege il happily share! Just looking for some pointers really, and some friendly advice without the sarcy comments! ?? "
I’m pointing out the inconsistencies in your profile - you asked for advice and it was trying to help.
There’s a lot of guys that do well on here - look at their profiles and pics and see how they sell themselves.
But honestly you really have to try and stand out as a single guy on here - in personality, in pics and your profile.
Don’t take things seriously either.
Good luck |

As another poster said - lots of threads on this. But my general advice
- Have a nice variety of pics on your profile. And make sure it’s recent.
- Text should give an idea of you as a person - not just be about what you want or like.
- Send a friendly but not too long opening message, with a face pic ideally
- Manage expectations. This is not ‘sex on tap’. Yes might be a hook up site but it’s real people, all with their own interests, lives and feelings, not just there for someone else’s fantasy or convenience. No one on here ‘deserves’ sex whenever they want it
Also keep in mind ladies get many many messages. Tbh I find tinder far worse as guys seen to swipe on anyone and everyone and you end up with tons of matches to have to go through - sometimes it just feels like too hard work! |

It's tough for you single men, so you have to have realistic expectations. And give others what they need, in order to be more certain that you should be the one who they want to meet.
It almost seems the reverse of this. In capital letters, you open with 'STRAIGHT', securing the greatest prominence in your whole profile. Is this the best you can do? Keep asking yourself this, with everything you include. Exclude or get workarounds, for what's lower priority.
How can a woman know she's potentially attracted to you? How can she know that you are compatible? The closer you get to giving her that, the easier you have made it for her
You won't be mutually compatible with most other people. At least you'll get the best chances that the right people know that you are right for them.
Every recipient of your messages will view your profile, before they read your message.
Your pics are too limited. There's a somewhat messy deluge of this, that and the other, throughout the text, much of which doesn't fulfil the outline above. |

OP, this man is worth listening to. Your best bet is to find a hot girlfriend and then reap the rewards that comes with it |

Do you know how I got a hot girlfriend? I had a decent profile on here |

OK, you asked for advice....and I've been dying to use this since it appeared on another thread, so here goes......if you want your inbox to go into melt down, put a frock and some lippy on, and wait to be inundated!! (That's right isn't it TV gurls?)
Sorry OP, just follow the more sensible advice given! |

I never had any joy on Tinder, so maybe seeing my face first put people off?
I found men on there even less capable of having a convo and they usually cock blocked themselves in the first 5 messages. |

"Been on here a little while and I must say its hard to arrange a meet or even get much interest in my profile? Any tips or is this just the way it goes for the average guy on here?! "
The problem with tinder for women is that it’s quite common to lose your account because salty men report you as being fake when you turn them down.
But if it works for you then it works for you; go for it! |

The problem I have with Tinder, is when I stopped paying for monthly subscription, I’ve now got 10 matches in a week, and I can’t see unless I pay. ..
But I didn’t seem to match that many when I was already paying…, it seems a mystery. |

In my subjective experience Tinder/Badoo is much easier meet people for fun. |

I don't think tinder is worth using at all unless you pay. Annual membership is cheaper |

FAB is a bit of fun, as someone has already said don’t take it to seriously
Post on the forum, post pics , send messages and put up statuses
The worst thing you can do Is have a tantrum if you don’t meet as some have done before
Which really shows their try personality
Remember as a male your odds are 1000/1 against you
Pics are very important and remember lots actually check what’s in the background
So if you want to stand out make sure there’s something interesting or an interesting location
Not just the bathroom while your hiding from your sexless marriage |

I agree actually! I hopped on Tinder again recently and slept with 2 women within the space of a week who were hot and everything
PLAYERRR I know.
This is actually true. Promise. Here I can't do shit! Some women are interested but miles and miles away and another close by wants me to be verified first. But I can't! |

A lot of single guys seem to think that all they need do is post a picture of their cock and the cock hungry women of Fab will be queuing up - so maybe reconsider your understanding of what swinging is, and change your approach and your expectations. |

"Nothing wrong with your profile, I would certainly arrange a meet with you. I suggest you remove the age range
I would rather have sex with a fit 50 year old than a fat ugly 35 year old."
People shouldn’t adjust their preferences just to get laid.
But you should probably adjust your attitude towards women. |

Do you also keep your face hidden on tinder? |

They are manipulating results.
Same is done with speed dating.
The organisers will try their best to have zero matches. So that you keep coming to their speed dates.
So best is to get out of it. |

Absolutely, it’s completed obvious when the results you get are so startlingly different to paid and free subscriptions.
I actually might try speed dating. It seems fun.

If I became visible and logged on to tinder here or even London there would be 1-200 within an hour or two. I’m not lying. In some cities it could be 500 |

You meet some nice people.
After the event, nearly all head for the bar. That’s when you ask for phone number, etc.
Organisers will avoid matches. |
