I might be having a wobbly day, we all get them.

Do you ever look at someone's veri's and think"I can't live up to that!".

Conversely, you see a veri from a profile and think "Shit, that is a rough profile, yet they aren't interested in me?".

I go through phases where I wonder ‘why on earth would anyone want to meet me’ (currently there)

And phases where I think ‘fuck they’d be lucky to meet me’

It can be about the same man, just depends on my mood

Although I am very anxious (always have been) and my anxiety has been awful for the past year or two...so I often wonder ‘why are they interested in me at all?’ Not because of anyone else, I just have a lot of self doubts sometimes

There and to the left a bit

Not so much someone's veris, but I often look at people's profile blurb and rule myself out not so much because I don't match their criteria necessarily, but because I don't perceive myself to, if that makes sense?

I think that is partly me being overly self-critical and self-analytical, and partly me being realistic.

In our head we are no better and no worse than anyone in here. There may be people with more “attractive” bodies, but that’s only part of the equation. We are who we are. If people want to meet us, great. If they don’t, I’m sure someone else who tickles their particular fancy will be along shortly.

Fab is a roller coaster if you, like me, are prone to periods of self doubt and anxiety. Take comfort though that there are a lot of people on here who feel the same way and though we might appear to be ok about baring all physically, and full of bravado, the truth is that letting our guard down emotionally is a challenge. The fact that you are acknowledging your self doubts and confusion instantly makes you a better more rounded human being.

For me it's the other way around. I do go through spells of not feeling myself and have self confidence dips. These are the times I'll take myself off here as I know this will impact how I interact with others.

I get very little attention here.

It’s incredibly rare on here to read a Male profile that has more than a one line at best and more often than not no veris!

Those decent profiles that punch above my weight are more often than not fake!

As for any others if they draw my attention I’m confident enough to contact. If the veris read well all the better. Those that have a list as long as your arm I tend to avoid..... I have no desire to become another ‘notch on the bed post’

It is more of a case of being supremely confident in yourself and you feel invincible. Not that you look down on someone, but that you feel you have your "A- Game" going on.

I personally feel that people take fab way too seriously and it impacts on their self esteem. We are frequently told publicly that due to one preference of ours people wouldn't meet us under any circumstances. If we allowed that to influence the way we feel about ourselves we wouldn't be able to continue.

It's superficial, internet transaction. Verifications are like the blurb on a book's dust cover, they're not going to say "this book is crap, don't read it".

Believe in yourself people!

I never used to, but I do now. I've been wobbling for ages and have come to the conclusion that I'm past my sell by date with regards to who I really want to meet. I like younger guys and most in my area have an age range under my age. I can't get to clubs and meet either so that's not an option. Meh.

I know my limitations but that isn’t going to stop me at least trying to get to meet someone I fancy. However I do bide my time while waiting for an opportunity to express my interest. I don’t know how successful that will be having had such a long time out of the ‘game’.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Veris are generally overly biased. And sex is different every time, it's not just the individual. So much more yes into it. You could have incredible sex with a partner one day, but the next it could just be 'Meh'

I never really do the "I'm the best they'll have" thing but I do remind myself that I will be the only me they have. I might not be as sexy or as confident as others but I am me and the experience we have together will be different to those they have with others.

I do all the time. Not necessarily through verifications though.. For me it's more because I want to date and have been single for over two years..so that leads to "why does no one want me" and "what's wrong with me". Even though hopefully there isn't anything wrong with me and I'm not desperate for a realtionship. Especially when I've been jejected a lot. I like to think I just haven't met the right guy yet and some things are worth waiting for.. I've been through too much shit to settle.

I think for fab to work you have to be in the right mindset that's why I have long breaks or don't have any meets.

Sometimes you need to just go with it.. Ride out the wave but then dust yourself down and think of all your amazing qualities and be confident and positive... Also remember a lot of veris are BS anyway... And with the right person it will be great anyway... Hugs x

It is quite daunting esp as most men go for very distinctive looks which is far from my own look.

"Do you ever look at someone's veri's and think"I can't live up to that!". "

No (because no one will see say they were a shit shag in a not fooling around way) but I have had the "what the fuck do they see in me" wobble.

But on the same hand I think "Ah fuck it, I must be quite hot as well" and then it's like a weird ego boost? You know if someone has met a few stunners and then you start believing you could be one too because they clearly have bloody brilliant taste. Yeah that sort of ego boost.

Conversely, you see a veri from a profile and think "Shit, that is a rough profile, yet they aren't interested in me?".

I've never once had that feeling, when I do I'll let you know Op.

A rough profile.

Yes veris put me off more than anything. I won't meet anyone with more than 4 sex veris showing because I'm not the type of person they're looking for. It's not the number, it's the fact they're on show. I'm not at all bothered if they've got 1 hidden veri or 1,000 hidden.

I can't compete with other profiles so I don't, and I'm happy with that. Rough profile- sounds like mine. I'd prefer if people didn't show veris from me as I know it puts some people off, and that's not fair on the people I met.

I'm easily influenced by others behaviour with me and how we interact together. To the point in can send me on a bit of a downer at times.

I cope with it by reminding myself I am worth the effort I'd like others to put in. Though I'd never assume I'd be anyone's best shag ever. I find tgat level of arrogance really unattractive in someone else, so it's not a method I'm going to adopt.

More reminding myself of my self worth and it's just the internet. That if they'd met me in person, hadn't made an incorrect assumption, had stronger communication skills or a more open mind.. then it may have been. Plenty more people to play with who may meet the things I want from Fab... eventually.

Not far

I'll have a look through many profiles, but decide not to send a message as I know I'm not going to get a response:

1) I can't live up some profile demands so no reply will be forthcoming

2) For whatever reason, I think they'll judge me a desperado so again no reply.

3) Some profiles are so lame with very little content, that unless you're a mind reader you will miss the mark and not get a reply.

Notwithstanding being a middle aged male I'm virtually untouchable anyway.

It's not rude not to reply.

Some ladies and couples get hundreds of messages a day so it simply isn't possible for them to reply to everyone. If you don't get a response, you should assume they aren't interested. If you're getting a lot of "no-replies" then you should consider your profile and the messages you send. Are they giving the right message? Are you standing out from the thousands of other guys on here?’

Getting into conversations with people I like, and then meeting, getting veris, is a huge ego boost in moments of self doubt.

My previous profile had a few veris from circa 3-4 people. This time around I've taken a while to get going again as I wasn't a "face" in the forums etc, and the majority of the people I was talking to have gone unlos.... From small beginnings grow bigger relationships and opportunity.... And I see this as a journey that will have its good days and its bad.....

I’m too young for most men I fancy

You’re not that young x

It’s not veris I get funny about and this sounds really sad for someone of my age but I just cannot for the life of me take a sexy photo and I try lots, I quite liked to be liked and even to get 100 fabs in a day would be nice but I never get them and then I get all upset about the state of me, of course doughnut is my biggest supporter and while it doesn’t matter in the wider picture, it bothers me that no matter how hard I try that I’m just not sexy.

"I might be having a wobbly day, we all get them.

Do you ever look at someone's veri's and think"I can't live up to that!".

Conversely, you see a veri from a profile and think "Shit, that is a rough profile, yet they aren't interested in me?".

I'm easily influenced by others behaviour with me and how we interact together. To the point in can send me on a bit of a downer at times.

I get like this especially cause I just message people I genuinely fancy and are probably way out of my league. but what can you do if they don't message you back absolutely nothing. I'm not going to message them constantly that's just weird. and to be fair to them they get hundreds of messages a day if mine goes unnoticed that's the way it goes move on

I know. Surprisingly so.

I only really got back in to the swing of things when I started talking to someone who's a bit of a dick so often but also wonderful. It was him who helped me in getting out of my funk and changed my mindset about here into positivity again. And I'm having a lot more fun and rediscovering myself again. So yes. The right person can do wonders.

Can your self doubts lead you to a negative outlook despite evidence to the contrary or are you naturally more inclined to put on your big boy/girl pants and say "Fuck it, I'm the best they are ever going to get, they just don't know it yet"?"
I'm not going to place a bet on being the best they'll ever get but I'll be the best I can be. Is that good enough for them? No idea. Will it be what they're looking for? That's what profiles are for. If you see veris as a competition you'll undermine yourself before you start....

I’m a bit torn on this one.

A veri alone won’t give me self doubt, there’s always someone who’s going to be younger, prettier, slimmer, sexier etc etc than me - I won’t dwell over something I can’t change.

However if it was very obvious from the veri’s shown that the person was definitely into a certain type (as described above) and then wanted to meet me, that would make me think twice.

Sometimes it’s hard seeing the veris Mr leaves, especially if he mentions how hot they are, wants to keep them, jump at the chance to see them again, etc. Probably because I’m older, and they’re always younger, hotter and fitter than me. That’s just my insecurities though.

We all have wobbly days, and being the age that most women have as a cut off point, doesn’t help.

Strangers veris don’t bother me though, I can kind of guess that they won’t be interested in me through them xx
