Is it just me or does it seem like a very clicky society in here? I get that people have to protect themselves at all costs and are safe with only the people they know and made aquatinsences over time. Not a problem...but is anyone else finding it difficult to break into this well guarded society?

I don't find it is, you will find the same people go into the same threads, but I don't think its a clique

I'm assuming you mean swinging as a whole rather than the forums.

It is harder for single guys, you're out numbering the ladies and couples quite significantly.

It can seem a bit cliquey but really it's because there are friendships there already, you wouldn't go to a pub and expect to just sit with a group you don't know. Getting yourself known is the best way forward, use the site facilities like chat and the forums, go to clubs and socials.

It can seem like it at times but when it comes to sending messages I don't think it really applies.

Traditional wisdom says that single men find it very difficult to get a response but I don't think it's necessarily because people stick to the same group. We don't anyway

It isn’t easy until you get known a bit and even then most of the time you appear to be ignored. The reality is actually quite different and people do notice, actually far more than you can imagine. They just prioritise their posts to people they know, or ones they want to hook up with more often. Join in and you’ll realise that it’s not all that bad.

I don’t think Fab is cliquey. It might seem that way when you are new, but it isn’t. Just take your time and put some effort in. If anything most swingers are friendly and welcoming. But if someone or a group of people aren’t interested in you, that doesn’t make it a clique.

Hi op. Yes the swinging scene is hard to break into. Especially as a single guy. Look at the site as a tool and use it to the best of your advantage. Have yourself a good decent profile with good pictures and use that as your base. Do you use the chat rooms? There a good way of (eventually) getting noticed but you will probably be ignored for a while but pesistance pays of. Start to use the forums as well. Again you may get ignored for awhile. The forums have a meets section and a club section. Look in there and put your name down for any events you may be interested in. It will take time and patience but if you genuinly want to swing perciverence will pay off. Get a reputation for being a good decent guy and it will open doors for you. Good luck

"Yes mate, I’ve finally plucked up the courage to contribute within the forums as this topic needed raising - this is my first post and I felt nervous posting it.

Welcome. Don't feel nervous many of us are friendly also remember that holding and expressing a different opinion isn't a personal insult.

Thank you , so there are nice people on here then "

Lots of them. The trick is to concentrate on the good and ignore the bad.

"Hi op. Yes the swinging scene is hard to break into. Especially as a single guy. Look at the site as a tool and use it to the best of your advantage. Have yourself a good decent profile with good pictures and use that as your base. Do you use the chat rooms? There a good way of (eventually) getting noticed but you will probably be ignored for a while but pesistance pays of. Start to use the forums as well. Again you may get ignored for awhile. The forums have a meets section and a club section. Look in there and put your name down for any events you may be interested in. It will take time and patience but if you genuinly want to swing perciverence will pay off. Get a reputation for being a good decent guy and it will open doors for you. Good luck"

Great advice...many thanks indeed

We sometimes found that couples nights and big parties at clubs could be a bit clicky, well more there are clearly groups who keep them self very enclosed. Strange to us because well talk to anyone. But the longer we've been on the scene as a couple the more we've understood the formation of these groups and the less judgemental we are of them. Because simply as a couple it's very hard to find people you both want to play with. So I guess once you found a group of people who fancy each other and get on great you want to continue hanging out together and look forward to the next time you all assemble. And when you see it that way makes more sense.

"Is it just me or does it seem like a very clicky society in here? I get that people have to protect themselves at all costs and are safe with only the people they know and made aquatinsences over time. Not a problem...but is anyone else finding it difficult to break into this well guarded society?"

It's the tinternet and a lot of people in a small space. Imagine walking into a a packed arena and asking everyone to stop what they're doing and speak to you. If you did that and it worked, you're either beyond skilled or Beyonce ...Keep coming back and people will get to know you (or not) and it will either be your thing or not.

It’s not clicky on fab as a whole - it’s just very male heavy - so you have to stand out with your message and profile pic to stand a chance of getting noticed - and even that isn’t guaranteed a response if you’re not the woman’s/couples type - or they’re not in a meeting mindset!

Try changing your profile pic to the 23rd April pic though - that would certainly get a response from me if you were local!

"I don’t think Fab is cliquey. It might seem that way when you are new, but it isn’t. Just take your time and put some effort in. If anything most swingers are friendly and welcoming. But if someone or a group of people aren’t interested in you, that doesn’t make it a clique.

That's true...valid point well made

*whispers* it is a bit cliquey.

Why are we whispering? "

It might seem that way but I have never met any forumites in person, some threads get a response some don't. Sometimes people respond to a comment sometimes it goes missing in the flood. I agree with some folk and have the ones who I feel are kindred spirits and the ones I'm not fond of etc but took a while, plus patience to get to know people.

I felt a bit out of things at first but it slowly changed. They were all probably completely unaware of how I felt.
