There and to the left a bit

The thing you have to ask yourself is, are people being anti-social or are your expectations set incorrectly and have you set your stall out in the right way to encourage people to want to interact with you?

Just because you have a profile on here doesn't automatically entitle you to get meets, and as a result get verified.

If you find you're not getting responses you have to ask yourself why and take a look at things like your profile and pics, messaging style and approach and attitude and expectations and see what you can change to improve things - it's all within your control to maximise your experience of the site but the key is recognising that and taking the appropriate action. It won't guarantee a thing of course, but it will certainly improve your experience.

Not particularly easy if you don't want to put in the effort, I'm afraid to say!

You've got to attend an organised social at least, that's what I ultimately did.

Try reading profiles and finding people of a similar mind set and put some thought into your messages

Your status definitely won’t help or being honest I don’t think this thread will, negativity will only come back at you and maybe try smiling in your Photo and be positive about your time here. Take a step back and think about just how many guys are on this site compared to couples/single ladies, how much choice they have & mail they receive, now think about how you come across and what makes you stand out from the crowd ?? Take a fresh positive approach and you’ll be fine

Good luck

A town near you perhaps

We have only been here for 4 weeks yet have 9 verifications.

You need to be pro-active. Get out there and make the effort.

I didnt sat that just because I'm a member that it entitles me to get meets I am just saying that people are not very welcoming to new people or people that are not verified and yes it may be my fault but how are you ment to know if nobody gives you a chance or tells you and I may not be the best person at starting a conversation but I have tried so it isn't all me if other people are finding that they are getting the same response

I always think fab is a bit like a sweet shop.

So much to choose from

So we pick the beautifully wrapped hand made chocolates that have a good description and a fabulous review. And we leave the unknown, barely described, unreviewed bar on the shelf

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

You haven't asked for profile advice so I won't give any.

You can only control how you engage with people. If you think they are being anti-social why would you want to meet with them? You can get a cam verification if you're desperate for a verification but that still won't get you a meet if nothing else changes about your approach.

Going to a social can get you a verification. However, I have seen men at socials there JUST for the verification who don't bother to make an effort and be social with people.

We do this as our pastime, our hobby, for fun. As such we might be selfish about how we do this.

I used to meet single men to help them along by giving them a verification, but only the ones that I felt I could spend an hour with. Some I genuinely wish I have never bothered to help.

"It's hard isnt it, people dont give you a chance because your are not verified but how you can verified if you cant talk to anyone just running round I'm circles "

My exact thoughts atm..

Plenty of profiles state won't respond unless verified, or without face shots etc... When in fact they aren't verified or have any face shots....

O yes.

Everyone hear is very antisocial.

That's why I have 46 social verys.

Seriously though.

Try to go to a group social.

That will help.

Only way round that is for one of you to pop into the chat rooms and get a webcam veri and then verify the other

It isn't anti social, it just has its own rules; I think this is one of the few places I've heard the phrase 'be proactive' outside of a management meeting, and it's just as pretentious as when used in said meetings.

Don't forget you are a single male on here; you'll be reminded a lot anyway so chance would be a fine thing. You'll either get guys commiserating because they are in a similar situation, or gloating/being condescending because they have had a meet and therefore must be special in some way you're not. Then of course you get the guys posting with one eye on how their messages will be interpreted by the females on here. The phrase 'arse kissers' comes to mind.

Ask yourself did you equate NSA, with easy sex? They are two very different things. You have to put in a lot of effort even for NSA.

Accept that you can take all the advice given about pics/profile text, interacting on forums and it will still get you relatively nowhere unless you attend a social.

You may realise at this point, that it's easier just going into your town/city center and meeting someone in the usual way, or you may not, but those are the rules of Fab.

it is hard but quines are getting hundreds of messages every day. reading them all is impossible. many guys will abuse them for either not reading or not replying to messages. i find you have to show an interest and leave it at that. nothing wrong with trying again in a few days (unless youve been told no) show your prepaired to try but can also have some restraint
