it may be that swinging and seeking sexual partners on the web is not for you. how do you do in the outside world meeting people.

expressing yourself and making that connection over the internet is not for all.

I always say to any guy i have referred to the site if you cant handle rejection the site isnt for you as its more common on here than anywhere else, especially as a single guy, when you had the great idea to join for "wall to wall action" so did about 500 other guys, that may be more appealing to the people you would like to meet

When sex and the pursuing of it becomes so important that the lack of it depresses you, its time to step back. Sex is supposed to be a part of a happy and well balanced life, not the only thing in it.

OP... You aren't alone...

There are many on here, or who have left, because they take rejection to heart...

They feel crushed, pushed down, "depressed"... At this point, as some of the helpful comments have suggested, you may consider leaving, or like me....

Why people chat and help each other here all the time. Why I love this site its not just sex its about people who at times need to off load and chat and see they are not alone when feeling low. your ok op .. you will find some here have had this here and not from maybe being on fab but things going on in their lives . xx

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

If it is seriously making you depressed, you need to seek professional help. Depression should be taken seriously as it can very quickly turn very nasty and change who you are.

You need to focus on you and you are the best person to do that-there's not a meet in the world that will fix the underlying issues which make you react the way you are to how this site is working out for you.

Depression is not an attractive trait and it is not conducive to building self esteem and confidence.

Dude seriously, depression, get real.

I been on here for 2-3yrs and still not had a meet. Had a lot of timewasters, fake profiles, escorts and mostly just no one attracted to me.

Yes it hurts, i have zero luck going out as well.

Fact is a single female on here even with just one non nude photo will get 100s of messages so to stand out, you gotta be something damn special, esp since a lot want someone whose been verified with meets.

I love sex, i wish i could do it everyday, its been 3yrs since i even had a cuddle.

perhaps change your approach to people on here and you live centrally in the country and visit clubs etc to meet people who are genuine and socialize more.

I seriously think you should come off this site, speak to your councillor and your close friends and family. At the end of the day people on this site (and me included) don't know you and so can't seriously make a positive comment....look back at the answers to your post. One has to have skin as thick as a rhinos on here and if one is a tad fragile for one reason or another than you need need to take stock. Come off this site and concentrate on sorting your head out. This site will still be here in the coming years and hopefully you will be in the right place then. Good luck and COME OFF HERE. X

Perhaps you have conflicted feelings with this morally.. Since birth we are drip fed what's acceptable and this lifestyle is outside of that. Don't over think it and seize the day! If you don't feel comfortable with it now it is unlikely to change.

Are there 2 issues here - firstly feeling down/dismayed and secondly how you filter and choose your potential partners. If you are seriously emotionally low, please do something about it, as it is an illness, just as if you had a physical ailment. Otherwise, look at what emotional support you need. If youre single, noone knows you swing or are on here etc, then I guess it could be tough. Think around the problem for personal help to uplift you. Now the second bit - how are you choosing and filtering your meets? You will get better at identifying the good from the crap over time. Choose verified people only to increase reliability. Speak on the phone prior to meeting. And always trust your gut feel! Use fab to back up your swinging in the real world, not as your solitary route to this. For now- take care of yourself, and decide what it is that you need that will lift you. Good luck!

Interesting I find this site helps me get out of depressive periods, pop on meet up with funny FwB go do something that makes us giggle then some quality bedroom time after, nothing better for picking you back up.

One thing is say is try reading.f through some.statuses and find one you find.funny or interesting and send a message starting a convo about it. Don't be looking for sex just treat it as a chat on any other site, usually you get a far better response than the trying to set up a meet messages, and there's no expectation for you so there's no feeling let down.

of you get one we'll and make each other laugh then think about a meet, but otherwise the chat is fun by itself

op by your own admission you are already depressed. The site didnt cause it did it ? However it seems that it using the site is a contributing factor. Of course being depressed you just want to feel good and depressed people use many different ways to feel good, sex being a common one.

Of course if you were a bi 21 yr old female, size 8 and hot this thread would be full of sympathy and you would have a full supportive inbox. That should tell you all you need to know about this site, dont take it seriously. You will feel better soon im sure, ride it out m8.

Now the op may have other things going on we don't know about and of loading here a little if it helps him I am glad ....We are in cyber space here and its not real half the time .. And yes it can get people down as it gives them hope of allsorts . Depression is like a very dark hole .. But theres a light if you look hard at the end ..

I HAD A BLACK DOG . Winston Churchill suffered from depression, on and off, throughout his life, yet still led the country through the Second World War. He called his depression a Black Dog that followed him around.. The Black Dog has been used as a metaphor for depression from antiquity to the present day. To bring the campaign to life .

I think you need to take a break. Not going to tell you to man up as I have no idea what's happening to you outside of Fabs an don't want to contribute to any issues you might be having. People have different levels of resilience.

Sounds like you're running low on confidence. Try doing a few social events (non-fab) with mates. Sometimes, it's just about going out, having a good time and seeing where the night takes you. We get so wrapped up in sex that we forget we're also enjoying that person's company.

I've been depressed for nearly 4 years, my heart is literally stone from all the shit that's happened, I don't know if the op is depressed or just looking for sympathy but it should never be joked about

Use this site as a tool for your own desires OP, you certainly do not have to conform to what anyone else states here and that includes myself. One tip though is to have no expectations. The tool I would suggest you use this as is for socialisation on the net bearing in mind never to take anything personally because none of us know you so none of us should be judging you. The only right we have is judging (assessing) you in relation to ourselves, for ourselves (and that's more specifically for meets).

Looking at history another famous person suffered with depression on and off, and he was a Master in helping present day mental health experts in the field of psychology: Karl Jung. You have done the right thing in seeking help and talking therapies is something I'd advocate, so I hope you have an excellent counsellor. If you have family and friends in whom you can trust, then get them to support, sometimes just as a listening ear and other times to ensure you are not isolating yourself.

Depression works on three aspects of our lives and this is where you begin to treat it, or at the very least prevent the depression from spiralling to worse levels. Help your physical body: sleep, nutrition and exercise. Depending on the severity of your depression, you may need antidepressants (or short-term anti-anxiety meds), but not all depressive disorders requires these. Do talk to your GP (tip: look at your GP's practice online and see if any of the GPs specialise in mental health, or ask the receptionist... all doctors are not the same and unfortunately not all are up to the mark with mental health).

Socially I have touched upon - do not isolate yourself. Do find activities that can give you pleasure.

Psychologically - counselling is a great start but the hard work comes from within. Some of your mental constructs may have to change. The easiest one is to refuse to take things personally that simply cannot be personal. You may FEEL the offence but acknowledge you're feeling it due to your weakened state. It does get easier (in time) to brush off the negativity of others, but probably not yet.

Some things I've only touched upon, there is a huge amount of info that you counsellor should be able to access, if not then your GP. Do look after yourself and if you find you're ruminating (over-thinking) then occupy/distract your mind... eg reading, but if your concentration levels are down then I'd suggest a movie.

Good luck.

Methinks this is just a ploy by another single guy who has only been on here for a few months and has had no success in what he considered could be an "Instant Fix" site!

Or I could just be totally and utterly wrong!

Why assume something negative? Even if it is a ploy, will it directly affect you?

Sometimes it would be nice if people haven't something positive or constructive to state, they zip it.

Chin up mate. The site's not that bad. You need to use it in a way that is fun and enjoyable for you. Just keep note that you won't always be meeting off here. It's not the be all or end all but don't let it put you down.

...it's not worth being depressed over.

Hope it goes well and looks up for you on here.

Sadly true.

IF the OP was using this as a ploy, then being empathic on this thread may not be of any use to him BUT looking at the bigger picture it may help others. (so much for me losing my nice side ).

Exactly, admitting to being depressed about it in here is hardly a strategy to get laid, I would assume a guy is actually pretty depressed about it!

Having sex is often just one way we can temporarily relieve a bit of the stress in our lives, chasing the dragon I call it (even though I know that is a drug related phrase I use it to mean getting a fix of whatever you need).

I can understand why people in all kinds of situations come here for all kinds of reasons, and I see no reason why we shouldn't strive to help each other find a bit of humanity here too.

It never fails to surprise me the people who needed a wee lift from the forums at some point in the past, how they forget.

A kind word cost me nothing, it may make a difference.

Its amazing at times reading the forums how 2 faced people can be. Its not that many years ago you were bleating wow is me about loosing your job and having to leave Hull. You were depressed looking for sympathy and a little comradery and now you feel the need to be derogatory casting aspersions. I hope the next time you feel down the same is dished out in a similar manner you can't deny it would be justifiable.

I couldn't agree more sadly some spiteful people take far more pleasure in putting the boot into others to make their lives a touch less shitty.

I'm not going to pretend there haven't been times when this site didn't make me feel frustrated by my apparent lack of pulling technique, but then I stopped worrying and saw it as another tool in discovering my sexuality.

I may never get a meet on there, but I learn about sex and more importantly myself so much using Fab that I no longer care.
