Yes I do, I want to find someone but they need to be a swinger and that is so difficult on normal dating sites, the abuse I recieve once non-monogomous is mentioned is ridiculous x |

"Nope sorry, not for me "
I’ll quantify this ^
Open dating, surely this is what socials are, two people out enjoying a drink, coffee, meal
FWB - it might be something most of us wish for, one or more regular hook ups, but you don’t know that from day one that you’re going to be compatible. You only know this after spending time with someone and let it develop naturally.
Therefore, everyone you meet is a potential FWB |

I think a conversation is already difficult to find on normal dating sites from my perspective.
OKC is probably best for non monogamous dating but it has a very very small userbase.

"No not on here as it's a swinging site. there's already enough dating sites.
We are here for casual sex and fantasy fulfilment not to chat with people who want to go to the cinema and for dinner!"
You wouldn't have to use the feature so why would it bother you?
And the regular dating sites are an absolute joke. |

Well not quite as a lot of people look for one offs too.
It's just a way to find more compatible people easier.
It wouldn't take away anything from the site, it would add to it. |

Some guys would just use it like dating sites. Say they wanna fwb,swinging partner but in reality just want a one off.
Plenty of profiles stats what they are looking for in terms of fwb etc so target them |

Why can't you use the Meet section and just put out a request on that making it clear you are looking for a regular date. |

What about the singletons that want a partner for swinging?
Go on a normal dating site, mention you're into the idea of swinger they run a mile. So ideally looking for a partner on a dating part of a swinging site makes more sense doesn't it???? |

There are dating sites for cinemas and dinners but I’m looking for a swinging partner as well as the more everyday stuff. I didn’t meet any swingers on match or eharmony!
So yes OP I agree with you |

It's not that.
By adding this feature it's going to attract more and more singles looking for love.
To the point that couples and " others" will be marginalized and pushed outof course I wouldn't have to use the feature but why come on a swinging site looking for Mr or Mrs right?
Aren't there enough post's regards fake profiles and fakers.
These people are just going to exploit probably emotionally vulnerable people who maybe susceptible to being lied to.
Perhaps a separate part of the site like the fab guys.
Fab singles dating perhaps then hopefully you will be in the right place and the two won't get confused???
Just my thoughts not wrong or right . |

Everyone is a one off to start with though, even if you state looking for a FWB. As you can’t start anything saying you are going to be FWBs as that needs to develop over time
I just see it as one more thing to complain about.... I met this guy/lass last week, I thought it went great but now I haven’t heard from them. WTF they said they wanted a FWB
It’s what your profile options are for, put them there. Plus when talking to see if compatible to meeting have that chat there

I agree with most of that, except I’m not vulnerable or susceptible to lies! There are many singles here that can hold their own on fab |

So hypothetically speaking, if you found someone you liked but they're in a swinging lifestyle and you had no idea at all that they would also like some kind of relationship as you only ever thought they wanted to be single.
How the hell would you broach the subject? |

You can't really search for an FWB/open dating/swinging. You have to manually go through profiles, hoping you find one and are compatible with one. |

People are already tricked and used on other sites, that's the part you would still have to deal with.
And you're already in a couple, don't you think others might want that too and still swing and see others?
It would simply allow to search for those with dating interests easier.
Making a sister site to run along would require a lot more resources and a lot of time to built a userbase. |

Fab can't be everything to everyone. It is what it is.
As already said, just make the most of your profile and make it work for you; detail what you're looking for and interested in.
You need to appeal to someone that way inclined anyway so if they want to find you, they will. |

I've found that there are a lot of people on here that are the opposite..they say they're looking for one-offs, then get all clingy because they actually want an FWB or dating.
I personally don't believe that you can "look" for someone to date, it's something that just happens naturally when you meet someone and click... I just approach every new person I meet with an open mind, and if we enjoy it we'll meet again. Some dalliances last longer than others, but that's life. |

I think its a good idea you can still usually work out the fakes etc and you would take things with a pinch of salt. I would love to see single only date nights in clubs as well perhaps. |

Yes. I don't know if the post suggesting this is still open but was started a few weeks ago.
A few more profile interests and user data that would be searchable would be great.
And group interests into priority levels, such as essential, ideal, curious or insignificant etc. |

100% would like this. I think sex is easy to come by especially on here, but a connection and actual dating not so. I also have tried other dating sites and as soon as you mention anything about swinging you are labelled a different type of person or get inundated with losers!! |
