By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

I am new to Fab but over the few weeks I have been on I have had replies to messages and friend invites sent to me which I accepted once we have chatted

Some just send messages which never go anywhere or after giving times I am available I don’t get a reply back etc

I have a few friends only pics I am not comfortable everyone seeing (yet) which they can see as I am giving them some trust but why bother sending a friend invite and going to the trouble of messaging? I don’t get it

Anyone else had this problem or can give me an insight into this?

Not every message is a way to a meet. People want to get a feel for you as it were.

Welcome to the reality of Fab Op

Don’t waste time on hear it’s full of time wasters

Get yourself out to clubs and meet the real swingers and learn about the lifestyle then you’ll have lots of fun

Either that or you join instashag but I think it’s fully prescribed at the moment

You're probably putting people off by giving times you're available...kinda sounds like you're booking an appointment for sex?

We've had single males message us although we have specified it's not what we're looking for. We do respond back and let them know we are not interested. Some do carry on and have a normal conversation which is fine but then there's so many pests that don't take no for an answer so they get blocked.

But I know what you mean with a sudden conversation / communication ending abruptly with no explanation. Quite ignorant of some do do that.

I only say when I am available when asked so I doubt it’s that

But on a positive note I have had one woman message me back explaining my message was deleted in a mass message clear out and another say she isn’t looking for hook ups at the moment

I wouldn’t say that ever

If guys use just for messaging to get a shag then it’s next to useless however if used correctly to find out what’s going on where and when with whom it’s really useful and effort in the right areas will up the fun levels.

That said there was a black guy on here with about 500 veris who posted on a thread that he was willing to help people struggling and guess what he got very few replies .

Looks like I kicked up a bit of a hornets nest here sorry I didn’t mean to do that

My OP was just to get feedback whether this was a common problem and if there might be genuine reasons people send a friend invite and message you and then go cold and I got two good reasons why today off the ladies who messaged me

I will keep at it I am a decent guy and I will find the right people for me for sure also someone gave me a piece of advice,”think of it as a filter for the wrong ones”

I was already thinking of joining the Townhouse so thanks for the suggestion

Actually it doesn't. I think people are getting a bit fed up with helping people who refuse to help themselves but feel fab owes them meets and should do all the work for them.

What's the point? It's helpful to have reasonable expectations, so that you don't become disheartened etc - it takes a long time for you new single men to become established here. This inevitably means that a lot of new single guys give up, so established users often prefer people who've been around some time, as you'll potentially be more reliable.

Your profile's fairly good - if we were matched, I'd be impressed.

In the meantime you'll need to decide if you can stick it out, with lots of effort made, apparently for little short-term reward. As long as you're first messages are targeted well, your profile is top notch and you get known, you're largely doing most of what you can. Attending any Fab socials is a good move too: there are perhaps some before Christmas that would give you a chance to meet others. Having friends and support here is great, so that you don't potentially feel isolated. Other than that, swingers clubs are potentially valuable.

I have a few friends only pics I am not comfortable everyone seeing (yet) which they can see as I am giving them some trust but why bother sending a friend invite and going to the trouble of messaging? I don’t get it

Anyone else had this problem or can give me an insight into this?

Mate look at the other threads? Half of them are about how to get meets? Your in the same position as virtually everyone else? My advice join pof and match.com you will definitely get more action. Go to clubs is also much better. Your wasting your time on fab

Most on dating sites are on here in my experience. "

Yep I see plenty of women on both as well, fab used to be great but not anymore, I'm just talking from experience? Not even close to getting a meet on here for weeks but last 2 weekends I've had dates with 2 absolute stunner, the one from last night is a definite keeper will be coming off fab again because of dating her but to be honest it's no loss and I can't see me coming back.

"I am new to Fab but over the few weeks I have been on I have had replies to messages and friend invites sent to me which I accepted once we have chatted

Some just send messages which never go anywhere or after giving times I am available I don’t get a reply back etc

"Your profile could be improved - both photos and text. I don’t know what your level of written communication is like but keeping a convo going is a skill. "

How could they be improved?

And my written conversation skills are pretty good

It’s a case of Social Darwinism in some ways. Your profile starts each little bit with “I” - it’s very much about what you want. Nothing much about what you can offer. Why would a lady choose you and not me? Think about your unique selling point.

OP give it 6 months and you'll understand that what you mention is normal here. It's finding the good in amongst the dull/weird/creepy/complicated that makes Fab worthwhile. And that does not happen overnight
