Hello ladies.
I am well aware that you get flooded with messages from gents every day which could lead to missing out messages from genuine, decent guys.
Could you give me some advise how to stand out and catch some attention with a message please. Higly appreciated x |

Your verifications show you are doing ok. You have played with a few. Don't know why you are asking for advice. Some guys been on here years and not met anyone. You are doing good mate. |

A profile has to interest me before I will even open a message and I don't get many messages on here.There is no magic formula for a first message for me to want to reply to anyone on here. It is all about whether I like their profile or not really. |

A lot of women will look at your profile before they even look at your message. If they are not interested the message stays unread or gets deleted. |

You have five meet verifications in your first five weeks on here mate. Many of us on here have been here for months and years and havnt even had one meet. As for messages, I've not had a reply to any of the messages I've sent in the six months I've been on Fab.
Id live to know your secret mate. |

It's because you're not for everyone on fab. I hardly get a response from men i like but still meet men. Just a numbers game. Out of the number that interests you, probably only one or two will be a good match as many factors determine whether you guys will meet. I had loads of men who i thought could be a possibility but their messages, photos, sometimes verifications or lack of them and location puts me off. But I am fussy. Think most single women on here are fussy because we get inundated with choice. If we didn't have much choice and you were in the group of small number of men here, I'm sure you would get more success. But as others said, 5 verification in less than a year is impressive.
I couldn't read your bio as there's no paragraph and it just looked too exhausting to read. For me, you needed to be fairly close, great manners as in I liked what you written in your first message and send me good photos of your body and face for me to reply you. |

Tbf I hardly look at profiles. If they had a username and location and sent me a message that didn't intrigued me. I just wouldn't bother looking at their profile and delete message unread. It's the quickest way to filter the millions of messages |

Too many men message every woman online. So any good messages will get lost in the crap. |

I think most single guys would be looking at your profile asking themselves what are they doing wrong, alot of guys been on here for years and still had no meets. Youv been on 5 weeks and have a good few verifications. Not bad if you ask me! |

There's a difference between having paragraphs and it just being a massive wall of text though.
Some people don't want to read long profiles and some do.  |

I agree with the others. It’s not the content, it just needs spaces!
Maybe a couple more photos, we always look at the profile first before reading the message |

It's the person and right approach that interests, not particularly the message. Keep it away from sex, if you can.
The profile will be viewed, before the message. Invest 99%of your efforts in to this, including having a range of photos. It's the only way we can get to know if we may be interested |

You won't satisfy everyone. Though having paragraphs, with spaces between them, will be more satisfying to view |

Ignore the ones that say CBA. They're either interested or not lol. For me, a detailed profile is a trillion times better than an empty one.
Probably lots of people ignore mine for being too long. If they're not interested in what I have to say then I'm not interested in them lol!
I'd definitely say stick with what u have now x |

I had this chat and had a lot of good tips a week or two ago
Look for the lounge thread, 'First messages what do fabbers write?'
or copy and paste this link when you are logged in
https://www.fabswingers.com/forum/lounge/1390780
if that works here
Anyone is more likely to miss out on getting messages at all if they set their age groups too strictly.
95% of my messages get read eventually but some may have been part of a bulk delete as well
If you are getting meets that does count as WINS though

Everyone is different, but for me, but the following go in the bin unread.
Txt speak
Blank profiles
Men that can’t read
Multiple messages from the same person that clearly couldn’t wait for me to see their 1st message before bombarding me with more.
That reduces my mailbox by about 80%. Then it just depends on what kind of mood I am in and what I am interested in that day. Sometimes I feel like picking somebody for a potential meeting, sometimes just look to see who is interested in me, with no real intention to arrange anything.
The main advice I would give is be patient. Sometimes I can read a message but be tired of replying, but haven’t deleted the message as I might go back later for a closer look. Sometimes I might reply a few weeks later when I have time to look more closely. But if that person has sent more messages pestering or worse complaining about the lack of reply, the in the bin it goes.
Harsh I know, but even a golden oldie like me has no shortage of invitations, so it is fiercely competitive to stand out. Anyone that can hold a reasonably sane conversation and has read my profile at least gets their message read. |
