Not a dent on my ego because I don’t have one (on here). I’ve been lucky and met some amazing people and had the fortune to find someone who is truly special.

What was the question?

Twice I would say. Well felt hurt. I am not sure that equates to ego though.

I am not sure how I feel overall. There's aspects I like and some that I don't.

There's a lot more effort going into being understood than understanding generally. Which means people are talking at each other instead of discussing things. It's all fine on fun threads but once it gets into any kind of debate it turns into a clusterfuck.

Yep, I concur - well put actually.

It's most understandable when you look at the maths and research. I'm not just talking about the male to female ratio. I'm also talking about the dating trends of women and the small percentage of guys out of the wider pool that the majority chase. From a pure numbers/statistic point of view its logical that many will be disappointed.

I think this is partly where the online world distorts personal interactions and damages people. Meeting people in the real world changes the game and I think is far more health. So support your local clubs/social events.

I enjoy the massive challenge on here being a single man.

I was part of a couple years back and know how some males are and our opinions of them at the time.

I don't get offended, hurt or down beat..

My ego is not that big so it don't matter tbh.

Take the hit, take a chance or nothing gained.

I'm talking to a couple of ladies and couples, earning trust and if it burns then so be it..

I'm not just here for fuck, it's nice to engage in chat and laughs too.

Maybe friend gained will be a club buddy who knows?

I take the site as I find it and most of what is said with a huge pinch of salt.

My ego has never been hurt but I have dented a few egos over the years.

Sometimes deliberately if they come across as entitled but more often than not by simply saying no or that I'm not interested.

That little word seems to trigger certain people.

My ego hasn’t been dented, it’s not that big to start with really, this site has its fair share of shallow and entitled people on it, so I tend to just sit back and if some one messages me first, great but if i don’t get any messages at all, then it’s just the way it is. Can’t get stressed out over things I have no control over.

Sometime you just have to accept that certain things aren’t for you

I’ve never struggled pulling on a night out, and I’ve had plenty of success on the dating/hookup apps, but I’ve had basically nothing on here, most messages go unopened

So I just guess I’m not the type that does well on here. And that’s not my fault, or anyone’s fault. It’s just the way it is

Had I been having no success anywhere, I’d look at myself as the issue, but that’s not the case, so I can only assume it’s just not a good fit

I understand going to socials is a great way to get involved, but last time I tried it seemed more like a clique Meetup where strangers could kinda come, but not join. Didn’t feel very welcoming to anyone that wasn’t already a part of the social crew

Ultimately, your ego is your ego, no one else can hurt it for you. Keep your chin up and you’ll do alright

The site is an abomination of code.

The people on it are much the same a people everywhere even though they seem to think they’re special. Much like people everywhere.

My ego is fine. I’m indifferent to others’ opinions - they’re none of my business, after all.

Tinder is far better but you need a decent face like mine for that.

I feel very lucky to have met some outstanding women here for fun, long term partners and friends etc.

I mean this genuinely you get out what you put in .

Not just trying hard or sending lots of messages, often the opposite but when you interact if you give yourself properly, no mask, and treat people seriously with respect you will have respect back.

The dynamic of the site has changed dramatically since the beginning. I put my ego down years ago so the no reply isn’t an issue with the ratio of male to female surprised most are even read never mind replied to. It’s must be really difficult for single women to make to choose.

I often wonder if that’s the issue

It’s the paradox of choice

Having a constant stream of new messages means you have to really stand out from the crowd to get anywhere

And I’m honest enough to say that I’m just an average guy. If it really is 100 to 1 on here, I’m not going to stand out enough

Stick to what works

I’m sorry to hear you might have had the same experience?

Running up to the social I noticed lots of local statues saying they were looking forward to it, and I’d message saying I was new. Kind of nervous but looking forward to meeting new people. I got zero responses and on the actual night it felt like I wasn’t welcomed

I’ve been on and off for a long time, sadly it’s just never clicked. I’ve had the odd random meet years ago, but in comparison I’ve had 3 meets from the apps this month so far.

Similar experience but as a woman, people will chat to me a bit.

There's often single men on the edges of the room trying to join in. People claim to be friendly but they are really just there for their existing friends. Very few of them are self aware enough to realise how cliquey it is and will deny it. Which actually makes it quite funny/ sad.

It's not just you.

On the socials this has been similar to my experience. Couples cliqued up with their friends, blanking the single men who have come along because it was advertised as a social. The men I’ve chatted to have all been friendly respectful sociable, all the things we are told to be, but little opportunity to show this to anyone but the other single men.

"how do you feel about this site? And how many time has your ego been hurt be honest. Mine quite a few "

What men have to accept is that unless you are in the 3% of what women want especially bbc your getting nowhere. This site is all about fantasy and those fantasies are specific and most men do not meet them.

Another is a lot f omwn are on here for validation. Outside of these sites in the real world their desirability is not as high as here. Be I looks, size, or even the state of a relationship. On here a single woman no matter who she is I'd desired and wanted. It's a nice ego boost. But they have no intention of meeting.

It pointless getting upset if you get ignored or belittled on here.

Speaking for myself my interest is partner dancing and I am better than most.that makes me an object of desire by women in that circle. Outside of the dance world I am not.

Getting upset by a site like this is a totally pointless exercise.

"how do you feel about this site? And how many time has your ego been hurt be honest. Mine quite a few "

The site is great. Does what it says on the tin, lots of ways to meet people through Fab, so I use them all.

I don't have an ego to dent. People are attracted to me, or not. In the same way I'm attracted to some people, others not.

What men have to accept is that unless you are in the 3% of what women want especially bbc your getting nowhere. This site is all about fantasy and those fantasies are specific and most men do not meet them.

Another is a lot f omwn are on here for validation. Outside of these sites in the real world their desirability is not as high as here. Be I looks, size, or even the state of a relationship.

Not sure about 3% but your probably not far wrong

Men outnumber women here like 100 to 1

You have to be pretty high up the flag pole to get noticed

That being said, some of the guys on here, the flag pole isn’t that high

But on the other hand, most profiles are looking for some combo of tall + hung which s out a lot

But your final point is great. Don’t get upset or beat up by the fab world. It’s not the real world and your worth isn’t determined by unopened messages on a swinging website

You really do seem to have an issue with women going by recent posts I've seen from you in fact, I'd go so far as to say those views would be a concern to me. If things are so weighted against you here and women are of such an undesirable quality, it begs the question...why are you still here? Surely the sensible thing to do would be to think hmmm this isnt the place for me and just delete your profile. However, based on your aforementioned posts, is this possibly an outlet for your views that your dance partners wouldnt like to hear?

"how do you feel about this site? And how many time has your ego been hurt be honest. Mine quite a few "

I've had the pleasure of interacting with some amazing people on this site, so in aggregate, I'd say mildly positive although that's not how I'd say I feel at each moment.

I think if you've ever faced rejection or criticism for something you're insecure about, it's bound to hurt your ego a little bit at least. The important thing is knowing those feelings will fade (hopefully, lol) and that it isn't the end of the world. If you need time to sulk, you absolutely should take that. A word of advice though: I'd definitely recommend not posting/sending messages during such a time (or at least thinking twice about it) because it rarely will be something you would've been fine with if you weren't in that headspace. This is something I've been guilty of and regret doing. Let me end on a positive note though, remember: "Failure is a bruise, not a tattoo!"

Not at all. My expectations of fab are quite simple these days, I have different interactions, some are friends/chatty but unlikely to meet (this is quite regular). Once in every while someone will wink or message me, the conversation is “natural” and we meet up for a social or sex (or both). My expectations are that the friends/chatty stuff is likely to continue and that the meeting people where there is mutual attraction/desire is infrequent. I don’t expect to have a sex meet once or twice a week but know that these things can come in bursts of activity and then none for some time.

I am fairly open in my views to everyone. Even at dancing. If anything I have more female friends than male ones.

I'm not just here for fuck, it's nice to engage in chat and laughs too.

I'd say the same. I realise it's worth playing the long game. I've been here on an off for a couple of years. Was very close to meeting a couple of times in 2020, this incarnation I've not met anyone but keep checking in and subscribing, starting to get a few winks and chats.

Women get 100’s of messages in a day. If they don’t reply or delete your message, don’t take it too seriously and move on. There are always some who will be rude and nasty but you learn to ignore those types. I use this site for my own benefit and it works well.

Do I expect more rejection yup but I also know I'll find meets that are right for me and the other person/people in time. For me it's as much about the community as it is about the fun.

"Sorry but am no blaming woman or couples, am just saying that it can be hard for single guys. Straight single guys "

I didnt mean that as it may have sounded, just the fact women have allegedly more choice shouldn't be a reason for your success or failure. That's totally yours. If there 100 women or 3 women and none are attracted to a man then numbers are meaningless yes? Its maybe not that it's tough for a single man its maybe more about what he thought would happen on jpining? Also I find it pretty hard going on here but just gotta roll with it till I find those people I gel with. If you take a figure 100 men to every woman, a woman's not going to be attracted to all 100, maybe 10 will be her type if shes lucky so the odds arent as bad as you think.

Reply privately (closed, thread got too big)

 

By *AABMan  over a year ago

Not far

I’m not sure that things here are so different from the real world; the same rules of attraction, supply and demand still apply. The difference is often in people’s attitudes; the idea that because this is a social sex site, then somehow finding a meet should be easier. But it isn’t, which doesn’t meet some people’s expectations. I’m fully aware that I’m probably only going to appeal to a small number of women/couples, but that’s no different to the real. As I’m walking through Tescos, it’s only a very small number of women who are going to smile at me and check me out. I have had some good conversations here but they will always suddenly come to a stop if either one of us determines we are not a good match.

Anyone who gets upset here about rejection or feels their ego is affronted, needs to get a sense of perspective.

Husbands get turned down more than single guys as people think many of them are playing behind wife’s backs , apart from that they should not feel disheartened , it’s just that there are so many on here ,so we just stuck to meeting them at club where wife is more relaxed chatting with them , after two successful meets we are now going back to meeting outside of club scene , but we are extra careful at checking them out as unfortunately the bad ones on here make it harder for the nice guys

Two truths about men/women dynamics to “soften the blow” for single men:

- the ridiculous asymmetry in the men:women ratio on dating websites/apps. I’ve read reported ratios of 7:1 or even 9:1. The numbers are stacked against single men; nothing we can do about it.

- by default, the vast, VAST majority of women will not want to sleep with you - ever - for a wild variety of reasons that are often too mentally exhausting to figure.

My best advice for single men on Fab would be to have a nice bio that shows respect and manners, display those manners when messaging and let chance do its job!

** I think most men are aware of this and that's why they come on Fab. Because they think Fab women are more likely to be fucking around all over the place and so they are in with a chance. And then they get super pissed off when even the 'slaggy*' Fab women won't fuck them.

You’re 100% correct, Fab being a website that is openly about sexual encounters probably makes things worse.

This is also why I mentioned women refusing “for a wild variety of reasons”. No need for us men to try to understand the reasons for a “No” because it’s probably too complex to anyway, and unhealthy for our mental health. We might as well just learn to move on.

".

Some do but many men's profiles are so dire it gets depressing.

Even with a low flagpole.

Also my ego isn't boosted by sending messages, it's boosted by receiving them. "

I agree about most men’s profiles. They are clueless.

As for your ego…

… you’d to well to let it go to a large extent. ??

My life improved immeasurably the moment I stopped being driven by mine.

Tinder is far better but you need a decent face like mine for that.

Narcissistic much? And thank you for putting me in my place, telling me I'm of "poor standard".

"I love this site. If you are precious and sensitive it’s probably not the place for you. "

With respect that's easy to say when you have over 25 meet verifications.

After almost a year and a half on here ,with zero meets, I can see how single blokes can get down hearted and depressed with the constant rejection.

I'm not precious or sensitive , I'm thick skinned, and realised after my first six months on here I'm never going to get a meet . I worked out how ,and who this site benefits .

1/ Couples and single women will only meet single blokes who have meet verifications.

2/Couples and women will only meet single blokes who attend clubs and organised socials.

It took me six months of sending messages ,all of which were unread ,and months reading threads on the forums to work this out.

Then I worked out that if you are a single bloke with no meet verifications, who isn't interested in clubs and organised socials, then you have no chance what so ever on Fab.

Now ,I'm at ease with what is required from single blokes on Fab,and I only log on to read ,and post on the forums.

I've long since given up on having any chance of a meet on here.

I've realised Fab is predominantly a place for couples, single women ,and a select few single blokes who have all the meet verifications.

The rest of us are wasting our time.

You message people, end up friends some how, an they hide there profile but keep checking yours out

Probably worse I think are the profiles that say I will delete messages from people I'm not interested in,, you message, they read it, don't delete it, nor message back

Not true, I've met loads of unverified men for a social. Sometimes it's developed into more.

What would put me off is posts like this, Comes across so negative and I don't really have the time for extra negativity in my life. I like to keep fab fun.

"how do you feel about this site? And how many time has your ego been hurt be honest. Mine quite a few "

I like the site. I see it as social platforms for likeminded people. It’s has its benefits of getting along a bit of fun and comms.

My ego hasn’t been hurt by this site and it can’t be hurt by ANY online dating site or platform. It’s as simple as online world isn’t real world. But I know my real worth. When you go outside (to a club for example) you can get attention and chat with someone would not chat to you (your profile actually).

Absolute nonsense!!! You have been advised 100s of time that it's a person's attitude that garners interest. No one is looking to engage with a misery guts.

You only ever seem to post about not getting meets. How about joining in on threads about other topics. Show people that you have a personality and are not just hung up on lack of meets.

Yes I have met unverified men on a 1 to 1 basis for a coffee to verify them. Clubs and large socials are not the only way.

I would never meet someone who only moans about lack of meets its an absolute turn off. You've also been told this on numerous occasions.

Oh god here we go again. The usual moaning and some of the usual suspects spouting some of same negative woe is me stuff. Fab can be wonderful. Just be positive and fun and sell yourself. Clubs and socials might help some but really not needed. I've been here a long time on and off and met loads of ladies and couples direct from the site and I'm really nothing special looks wise. I honestly don't know why some of the woe is me brigade stick around. Oh and this 100 to 1 male to female number has come up again. Where is the proof for this? It is closer to 10 to 1 but I guess saying 100 to 1 makes it easier to justify why nobody will meet you. Easier to just blame the odds being stacked against than take some responsibility for how you interact and present yourself.

"Sometime you just have to accept that certain things aren’t for you

I’ve never struggled pulling on a night out, and I’ve had plenty of success on the dating/hookup apps, but I’ve had basically nothing on here, most messages go unopened

Had I been having no success anywhere, I’d look at myself as the issue, but that’s not the case, so I can only assume it’s just not a good fit

I understand going to socials is a great way to get involved, but last time I tried it seemed more like a clique Meetup where strangers could kinda come, but not join. Didn’t feel very welcoming to anyone that wasn’t already a part of the social crew

Ultimately, your ego is your ego, no one else can hurt it for you. Keep your chin up and you’ll do alright

That sums up socials brilliantly!

I’m sorry to hear you might have had the same experience?

Running up to the social I noticed lots of local statues saying they were looking forward to it, and I’d message saying I was new. Kind of nervous but looking forward to meeting new people. I got zero responses and on the actual night it felt like I wasn’t welcomed

Who knows

On the socials this has been similar to my experience. Couples cliqued up with their friends, blanking the single men who have come along because it was advertised as a social. The men I’ve chatted to have all been friendly respectful sociable, all the things we are told to be, but little opportunity to show this to anyone but the other single men."

I have spoken to quite a few single blokes on here who have been to clubs and organised socials, and they have said exactly the same as you .The couples and single women all get in their cliques with people they have met before ,and the new single blokes are just stood around like spare parts ,totally ignored . Yet the single blokes get ripped off with the enterence fee.

It's bad enough feeling like a Lepper on here ,and I've no wish be humiliated in a public setting.

This is typical though. Some have had a bad experience. Some have had a good exerpience but you choose to focus on the bad. I'll give you two examples.....

1. Pub social with some knowing eachother and some not. Yes some single men were sitting on the side not chatting, being ignored and looking socially awkward. At the same time some men were mingling, saying hello and being decent people. One ended up getting invited to a private party a few weeks later and had group sex and MFF for the first time in his life. At the time he had two veris from attending a previous social. He was in his 50's and average looking. But he got out there and threw the dice.

2. Pub social in outside garden. Arranged this one myself a few years back. Struggled to get men to attend - loads said yes but backed out as got close. Almost ended up with more ladies than men. This social was near a hotel. There was a mini after party in a room with anybody invited - three single men came along and had fun. At the social itself one guy was sitting at the side looking shy and lost. I went to chat to him and then brought him over to a ladies table - I think six ladies sitting there with no men at the time. Started chatting and ladies were all friendly and having a laugh. I wandered off. 10 minutes later I looked over and he was back sitting on his own at his old table. He was completely intimidated. You can lead a horse to water....

I don’t take things personally. Yes there’s messages that go unread but that’s life. The best way to navigate fab is to go to swingers clubs and events. Meet people there talk to couples and ladies and let your personality show. If you click then exchange fab details and keep in touch.

It's funny really.

The single guys only feel the women are unattractive after they have been rejected..

local, but not too local

I pretty much just chat on the forums.

I’m not pushy enough or an 11/10, and between work and elderly parents don’t get much time for meets anyway.

No, it’s not true. The perception that single guy will fuck anything and everything is really wrong. Like single ladies and couples we have standards. Like for anyone else they are very subjective. I was told no here and and in real life few times, I don’t think these who rejects me are unattractive. It’s opposite, they are attractive otherwise I wouldn’t approach.

There were few topics on forum from couples concerning they aren’t getting any meets with single guy that prove the point.

"It's most understandable when you look at the maths and research. I'm not just talking about the male to female ratio. I'm also talking about the dating trends of women and the small percentage of guys out of the wider pool that the majority chase. From a pure numbers/statistic point of view its logical that many will be disappointed.

I think this is partly where the online world distorts personal interactions and damages people. Meeting people in the real world changes the game and I think is far more health. So support your local clubs/social events.

Hallelujah"

A very good point.

The online world certainly only allows you to go so far to make an impression. In the main decisions are made solely on a profile and any pictures posted. However, the big piece that is missing is what are you are like as a person?

Your profile can only tell so much about you - even a comprehensive one. What is your personality like? What vibe do you give off in person? If you were to meet would there be sexual chemistry? Would the person you approach flirt once they get to know you? Can you make that person laugh and be fun to be with? Don't get me wrong, obviously physical attraction does play a part, but is not everything.

I often wonder how many times there would be a change of view if the single males got the opportunity to be invited for a social meet (as many stipulate as a requirement, prior to any fun). I think some people would be genuinely surprised if they were to meet some of them in person ......... and to be fair that also goes for single females, couples and TV/TS who get overlooked when people are looking - not just the single men.

All of my verifications have so far been at camping meets. These take place over a weekend and so there is more time for people to get to know me rather than a comparably shorter time at a club or evening party - where some people do stick to known groups. Though these should not be discounted and are still the perfect place to demonstrate what you are like as a person and not be assessed by just a photo/profile alone - thereby allowing people to get a fuller picture of you as a person.

The thing is, you're a single man. You're not really the one who can say what a lot of other single men are like because you're not interacting with them say after day. You're basing your view on the forum which is a tiny percentage of people on Fab.

Women and couples get the messages from single men daily who do see Fab as a sex site. Who would "fuck anything". And I know that isn't all the guys here. I am not saying that at all. But it's a huge number.

I suppose I've been more fortunate than most. I never had trouble meeting women through fab. I did put effort into my profile and interaction which clearly helped.

I was rejected a few times and rejected others as well. Took it in stride as we can't please everyone.

"how do you feel about this site? And how many time has your ego been hurt be honest. Mine quite a few "

From what I read on joining this site, it was pretty obvious to me single guys are wasting their time, so I just use the forums and open my front door and go outside to find my kinks.

No use in saying one cannot find meets, messages unopened or unread there is no point as you can read no one cares.

Except if you pay the fee and that from what I read is pointless and not my thing, money and sex shouldn't go together imo.

Put on your glad rags, shine your shoes and go out in the real world see what you find.

All this woe is me poor single guys that don’t get meets.

Some of you have absolutely no clue and some of you do it well. Guess who gets the meets.

Most Profiles are shockingly poor. No photos, or photos of your cock, no description of any detail, shit messages. And then you are on here bemoaning that you can’t get a meet.

Yes there are loads of you but stand out and make an effort.

I regularly meet single guys - that’s why I’m here after all but I have standards (despite the comment of one lovely poster - thanks. Now added to my block list)

If it’s not working for you then change it.

To me it's a simple no thanks or yes please. There are lots of ladies I would love to have fun with and others no thanks. It's a sex site , if you don't like it's a no, why be offended if they reply and no thanks . Just carry on looking

When I signed up to fab, I couldn't believe it. On the first day,my inbox was flooded with messages from hotties asking for my address so that they could literally queue up to shag me. I had no photos or profile information but that didn't stop 'em. Hundreds of the buggers. I was living the dream! Shortly after, I woke up, realised that anyone who thinks this is what will happen is a complete nob cheese & should leave.

In reality, I came here to find out about social events, go to them, try to make some friends & not be a twat.

If you have an ego you need to leave it at the door, along with your expectations!

When I first joined fab, more years ago than I care to remember I met a lot of people, single females and couples, but I was in my 30's then, even though I'm not the most attractive of people. But I quickly learnt I'm not for everyone as everyone isn't for me. Fab, like me has changed over the years. Very few socials to go to, unlike now. I've never been to a swinging social but have been to many kink socials and like everything, some are better than others. Some will be welcoming and inclusive, others won't. I originally joined fab from contact magazines to meet and play with people. I'm still here for those same reasons, not to just chat or socialise. I too have a choice on who I choose to message, but I never have the expectation that I will receive a reply even as a single male who can accommodate. There is always someone better looking or suits requirements better than me. No expectations! Then you'll get on just fine.

I enjoy fab and haven't found it hard on my ego. I enjoy the social scene quite a bit and my goals are centered around making friends in a sex positive community. Sometimes I get to have amazing sex with my friends.

The scene is smaller in Ireland so I'm not sure how comparable my experience is.
