With Tinder if you live in a busy area, it's good, if you live in the middle of nowhere I wouldn't recommend it.. POF is similar to here, but obviously very vanilla in comparison but I've known people to have success on POF with dates not sure what it's like for older types, but I would of thought it's good x]]] |

If you're actually a single guy looking for a single woman, OKCupid is great for quality and Tinder is great for quantity.
Both are better than here IMO for specifically single people seeking other single people.
I think PoF is for the kind of people that also used Friends Reunited back in the day  |

I had no joy with Tinder... And when I went on PoF one of the first people I found was the ex wife... So steered clear after that!
I was warned off the likes of Adult Friend Finder as they are just a con. Much happier with Fab, though yeah I'm not sure who the discrepancy between men and women is more irritating for- the men trying to get noticed or the women sifting through hundreds of messages! |

I find and it has just been proved tonight to me, men have NO regard to safety where single females need and expect to be!
They want to meet now! No getting to know you, No face pics, we're just a sex object!
They just want to meet and fuck now, change your fucking attitudes and you just might, and I mean might! You might just get there. it is all down to YOU!  |

The problem with men is that they have achieved the singularity. |

I get a lot of messages like this, and every single one like that gets flat out ignored, would they approach a girl/woman like that on the street or in public places? Probably not, it's all because they're on a keyboard ^.^ And I agree so disrespectful and those types won't get anywhere with anyone I know that x |

Lol no definitely not having a whine , as a couple we met some great single guys and also were pestered by some terrible ones.
As always genuine guys get the flack caused by the bad ones.
Not all ladies want to be part of the swinging scene but perhaps like the nsa scene ? |

I'll thank you not to tar us all with the same 'wanna-fuck-now?' brush.

It wasn't a rant to be fair, when I pointed out he had to consider his own safety measures, I think he started to consider them! |

I met someone from POF almost as soon as I joined. And I found it easier to get chat's with women on tinder compared to this site.
I havent used either of them for ages. I heard about fab through tinder and I've been here ever since with very little success. |

Best approach with the dating apps is to use them all in my experience. Take the time to develop your profile on each and to be original and interesting with every girl you interact with, and after a while you’ll reap the rewards. |

I (Starlord) was on Tinder & POF I had lots of success on both, plenty of contact with women of all different ages had a few dates and I met Willow on POF, when we started getting serious she suggested swinging which has opened up this world to me.
I agree with the poster that said a lot of guys don't do themselves any favours with how they approach to start off with, as any single women on any of those sites will have their inboxes bulging with 'hey' messages, I would always start with something different, something to get noticed and strike up a conversation that way, always had lots of success that way |

Tinder is hit and miss. Out of all the sites it's the one with the most algorithms affecting who does and doesn't see you. If you've had the account a while or swiped right on too many profiles it treats you like a second class citizen even if you pay.
I've had a couple of dates with Bumble but only after I paid for a month's subscription as otherwise if you match with someone it times out in 24 hours so it's quite likely they won't see or have time to message you otherwise. I cancelled immediately though, because it's expensive.
Both will also try and sting you for further microtransactions even if you've got a paid subscription, which is poor form IMO.
I've heard a lot of people rate Hinge but so far in my area it doesn't seem to be very well used. I've not had much luck with it yet but it clearly has potential.
OKCupid - used to be a lot better. I met my ex there back in 2012 and dated a decent handful of women from the site in the preceeding years. However the site has been reworked and now feels like two different apps in one. If you use the classic search function, it only gives you low-quality matches. You only have one shot at an opening message and then the profile you mail vanishes for ever until the recipient responds. If you use the new 'Double Take' feature, it shows you better local matches, so obviously the 'classic' search is either deliberately gimped or broken, however - it also doesn't seem to take your age or location filters into account so you also see a lot of junk profiles. The other result of this is you end up getting matches from all over the world, which whilst nice, just makes you feel like there's nobody local for you.
POF, I've not had much luck with at all. I haven't seen anyone I'm even interested to message on there in ages. Plus the app itself is quite clunky and not user-friendly. |

I've just had a run of guys who can barely manage answering a questiom, it's purely about coming around, immediate sex and near 100% no elements of compatibility checking, social engagement etc |

Tried pof, great for short term flings and one night stands but people have so much choice and I think they get a bit addicted to the thrill and the dates that everyone just ends up short term.
I was on there, left, came back and loads of women were still on there from the last time!! |

some are just too locked down and difficult to get past the criteria theyve set up to meet, so as a result haven't achieved anything, to find what you need in this life you have to occasionally look outside the box |

Any men who ignores requests to meet safely deserve tarring with the same brush because you are one of them guys.
The same guys who think they are the exception, the "nice guy" who swears they will offer a good time or a social chat even at stupid o'clock in the morning.
Single guys do themselves no favours.
Empathise, put yourself in the woman's position. What would you say to a female relative that is deciding to meet a guy who says let's fuck/meet now that they've never met before?
Be the actual nice guy and support a woman's decision to meet safely trust is earned not a given.
If a woman is looking to meet don't take offence if she doesn't want to meet you. Being local or the fact a woman is looking for sex doesn't mean she's going spread her legs to anyone who offers. Many of you guys seem to think that's what fab is about.
So many single guys don't understand the life of a woman. When we go out clubbing it's a different experience, just the same when it comes to meeting guys for sex. It's a completely different world for guys as it is for women. THINK with your head not your cock.
Don't want to be tarred with the same brush then be the kind of guy that respects women and their choices.
You're a fuckwit if you demand to meet now, insist on private meeting when the woman wants public meet. Demanding pics, vids and meets. When all you obsess about is getting your cock sucked or ramming it in her ass. Objectifying women is an obnoxious way to treat a woman or anyone for that matter.
When you get the horn control your behaviour and attitude! Self control!
When you can master that I'd say you'd do well being a single guy on here.
Don't be like the majority. |

Swinging is no longer for me, it doesn't meet my needs anymore. Or rather the men didn't meet my needs as a whole person. I'm a whole person not just an object. I'm single and decided now I want to find a mental attraction then, physical maybe. I've enjoyed myself but, for me it's run its course. Ms (we are good mates, not a traditional couple) |

Some people really need to think before they say something. He's on here for starters and we're here because we love to play. Plus you're the same person regardless of which site you meet someone on.
Anyway, you're lush!! Xx |

I’m on PoF, Tinder and Hinge, no luck on any really. I’m looking for a relationship not just sex, seems I’m one of the undatable’s, so along with FabS I’ve pretty much given up now. I grew with a few comments, PoF is clunky, Tinder to hard to be seen, Hinge is ok as an app. |
