Has anyone worked out how much we'd actually get done if we didn't spend hours trawling the forums and perving at pics?
Has it affected your work productivity, housework, relationship or even appearance, the fact you spend too much time on Fab? Are you still sitting in your pyjamas at 6.30pm now, because you've spent all day on here?!
The reason I ask is because I deleted my Facebook account due to time wasted on it...and now I find myself wasting double the amount of time on here!
I might have to take a step back. It can't be healthy...can it? |

If it affects your life then its time to step back. I log on from home, I don't watch television I come on here instead. I'm not on when I'm out and about or on holiday or have visitors then I would worry |

I think its really easy to let Fab consume your time. I think thats why some people end up deleting. Too much temptation to just 'have a quick look' especially on phones. |

Perhaps you need a proper loving relationship ....as this would settle you down a bit ...I don't mean marriage just a distraction . |

I can't do relationships. I'm too selfish with my time.
I might get a pet! |

I spend quite a bit of time on the forums. Once I get a job I like then I won't be around as much, but at the moment fucking around on fab on my phone is easier than reading my kindle once I've done my work for the day.
When I'm sitting at home I tend to just look at it when I have some down time or when I can't sleep.
I'm hardly on here on the weekends as I usually have better things to do

Yeah having more interesting stimuli in the real world definitely helps.
I think there lies the problem!
I'd hide my profile but I'd miss the forums. Not arsed about meets at the mo. Maybe I've lost my sexual mojo! |

Well, you'd only find something else to waste your time on (as you have with this after Facebook).
I quite often think that about a lot of the things I do to pass the time - that there is definitely far more productive things I could be doing. I don't feel my work or personal life is suffering though. |

Oh I don't either, just for the record. I just wondered if anyone else felt like it was consuming daily life in some way shape or form. |

I'm not in pyjamas by the way, just to reiterate I wasn't describing myself there, haha! |

I probably spend too much time on here at the minute. I don't really watch a lot of TV and my job is shite, so I dip into the forums when I have a minute. If I had more real life stimulation or a proper job I wouldn't be on here half as much. I've stopped logging on at the weekend as much. I find it helps to have a day or two away from Fab otherwise you can suffer from burnout. |

Ha! I got home from work and put my pajamas on immediately. I'm about to have an ice cream sandwich and watch some news. So I guess you could have been describing me  |

You are spot on and walking away from online forums for a month or two at a time lets you realise the other things that you can do with your freed up time
Even an online tuition course, or college course, hobby, or hill walking, country drive
Its good that others actually realise there is life away from the pc screen, Life can be good if you allow it |

"I'm single, have no TV and can't stand Facebook so Fab suits me for evening entertainment "
Exactly my situation.
I've spent more time on fab than any other lately. Managed to loose most of the weekend on here |

It's far too easy a distraction and one of the reasons I've deleted my account in the past.
There's a great little app called forest to help you avoid using your phone...bloomin forums!  |

I go through stages of feeling that I'm on here too much which I don't like, so I simply decide that's it I've had enough & I don't login, its refreshing.
I get tend to read more if I'm not on here & get way more housework done.

I wasted two full days earlier this week. I even asked a mod to ban me from the forum for a week but they wouldn't. I considered coming on calling you all wankers to get banned but I know you're not. Except you. You know who I mean. You're a wanker |

You still have 14 days to recover your account.. But only if you deleted it recently"
