This place must be the most time consuming sites there are..
Hours spent, searching and messaging for a hit rate of about 1 in 250
And 80% are smug arses to boot
Just thought I'd have a rant, not all bad here just frustrating  |

"Why don't you!

Have a wank. I'm one of the smart arses btw. "
Actually one of the greatest arses here  |

Read this the first time you posted. I know he said smug, there's nothing wrong with my reading. I do feel a little smug now too though.  |

Wow I'm impressed you found that many where you believed you met their criteria to message in the first place!

I think sone people put too much effort into trying to make it work
It then becomes a chore as opposed to a pleasant passing of a couple of hours
Fab is just one small way we have of interacting with others
It's best drank with a mixer rather than neat  |

I've been on here years, OK probably not that many but a lot. I probably message 5 new people a day so 35 a week that's about 150 a month..
Plus messages to people I already chat to, it soon adds up to quite a bit of time for not much reward lol |

Depends what you class as reward. The people you chat to might love your chats, reward enough? |

I'll say what I always say...
People who are successful with meets outside of fab are generally successful on here.
People who aren't, aren't.
If you have huge success outside of Fab but not on here then maybe you should stick to that.
If you can't hook up in the real world, why would you assume it would be different on here?
Happy fabbing. |

Because people struggle to ‘hook up’ in the real world. I know loads who are on dating web sites and have dates every week. On here it’s hard for men as there is so much competition. |

Yeah I know, but there's a difference between "dating" someone and meeting people for a threesome etc..
There's no right answer as it depends what I might be looking for at a particular time, last weekend was a "date" with a lady. Two weeks before it was a meet with a lady off here..
Both very enjoyable but the "meet" took two weeks solid texting and we met up. The date took about 10 texts and I picked her up and off out we went
So it's not me, obviously the zillions of guys on here are spoiling the ladies - too much choice I suppose |

Not all down to the competition its also down to those smug people who ask you to be polite and message them with more than a cock shot and "fancy a fuck" and when you do as they ask they press delete and block rather than just say "sorry not our type". |

Yes, exactly. So if people can do better elsewhere then I don't understand why they come on here whinging about no meets when seemingly the world is their lobster elsewhere. |

I wasn't whinging about no meets, I said it was time consuming to get one, as in compared to other methods of meeting people

If a lot of men on here weren’t abusive when you send a “No thanks” most of us wouldn’t have to delete and block.
When I first joined I replied to every message even with a no thanks and very regularly got all kinds of abuse about my race, appearance, being stuck up etc just because I politely said “No thanks but good luck in your search”.
Now, it’s far easier to delete and block to save the hassle. |

Yep 6 of one and half a dozen of the other.
It's nice to be nice, but being realistic most people aren't. That's the way it is |

It sure is nice to be nice.
But getting a message off a stranger on here, you never know what their response will be to rejection. So if not interested, much easier to delete.
As stated in Fabs FAQs, it is not rude to not reply, and no reply means not interested. |

So how much time ideally do you want it to take? Every lady is different so unsure why you are placing a timer on each one. Very strange ideas you have OP! |

Agreed.
I think many on here expect that they will get a meet right away and will be in each others underwear before the nights out. And when that doesn’t happen it’s everyone else’s fault.
Some people like to build up anticipation or a connection before meeting, some people like to get straight down to it. If you think chatting and getting to know someone is time consuming OP maybe it’s best you put on your profile you aren’t interested in chatting and would prefer to meet for fun straight away of that’s what you want.
It’s stops those who prefer to chat for a while from wasting their time & yours. |

well don't bother and stick to wanking off to the underwear section if the next catolog if fab is that hard I meet people off fab, off tinder, plenty of fish and believe it or not i even meet people in real life and I enjoy meeting new people but if you think you can send a few messages on fab and expect to huck up without effort other than a message and then moan about the time it has taken you to Wright the messages I think that may be your problem |
