Why are people so impolite on here? Had a few conversations where you get asked a question, and then when you answer it they don’t even bother to read the message and totally ignore you.
I appreciate I’m a single male and there are a plethora of us, but half these people have contacted me first. Is it too much to say you aren’t interested? Manners ffs |

I’m always friendly and never pushy, just trying to get to know people.
Biggest bug bear is when they go on about how much they like your cock and then blank you about meeting, I dunno it’s just a bit disheartening. |

If this is happening with more than one person that you are talking to, I'd suggest looking over what you are saying. |

Always going to get the pretentious folk who have a sense of entitlement on here mate.
Always remember as a single man you can be choosy to!
I have a couples profile with my swinging buddy and yeah we get mithered like most but a little no thanks never goes a miss.
Remember it’s a swinging site so not all are looking for singles, I prefer clubs myself although I’ve never been as a single guy.
Get to a social somewhere meet people I know clubs are for everyone but it sure helps newton the genuine face to face rather than the keyboard cowards on here!
Good luck mate! |

"Tbh most of the time I don’t even get past initial pleasantries. Frustrating lol"
With this on your profile, I am surprised you get any response:
"I don’t have much free time, but looking for some stress relief now and then.."

Happens to us all. Unfortunately just the nature of Fab as there’s so many people on here. Perseverance and a thick skin are needed at times. Pays off eventually  |

To be frank OP, are you sure they have ghosted you? Could it be that they have got their rocks off already and then moved on?
My suspicion was raised when you said a lot of them have contacted you first.
You might want to think a little bit more about who they might be, not who they claim they are. |

They are mostly couples looking for guys, seem to like the photos and dm me.
Get past the how are you’s, get asked about what I’m into etc, I respond and then the message stays unread. Seems to me like they bulk message and then can’t be arsed to make the effort. |

It seems to me by the way you are writing that this has happened to you many times? If that's the case then you are the common factor, so maybe consider how you interact with people on this site.
Have you had this problem with single male profiles? |

So you get contacted first by lots of MF couples that then stop speaking to you without reading your messages?
Sorry, but I suspect they were never real couples in the first place. I also note that you have had this exact problem in the past with single women.

So once again the common factor is you.
Don't get me wrong, There are plenty of assholes on here, and they do have a massive negative effect on all of us. However if you keep falling for the same thing, then you should really be looking at yourself, and not blaming others.
Fools me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. |

Sorry to have caused you offence, but if you are having lots of couples and single women contact you, and then blank you when you reply the only common factor is you.
Being strongly prejudiced against women is unlikely to be any deterrent unless you plaster it all over your profile, which will no doubt not end the way you would want, so I don't suggest that lol. |

Mate, don't moan. I shaved my legs and the guy messaged to say he was on his way then he deleted his account and his WhatsApp 
This was the second time he'd ghosted me!

You have women/couples contacting you first?

Sounds like they're maybe just getting their thrills from looking at your pics and the dirty talk. Once they've got that, they're not interested any more. |

Chill out and don’t take it personally mate. At the moment I have 127 messages unread. I’m not “ghosting” or ignoring those people. It’s just too overwhelming to reply to everyone and every time I think “I’ll reply later” more messages arrive.
So I imagine that’s the case for a lot of other people too. In you chill then they’ll respond when they are ready.
PS nice cock |

See with me if I’ve agreed to meet someone I turn up, the other person has made the effort too. It’s just rude not too.

Yes.. why?"
That is a rare occurrence. Women and couples generally receive more messages than they can handle and often have to delete without reply. Yet it seems it happens a lot to you?
You mention they say they like your cock?
Sounds to me like you've met the fake brigade. |

^^ This
I've been on this site since it began and have 10s of male friends. None of them have women or couples contact them first more than once or twice in years on here.
If you are being regularly contacted first, complimented on your cock, and led to believe they are going to meet you my thought would be they are men, not time wasting women or couples. |

I usually try to let people have a 'thanks but no thanks' after chatting for a while, but this is less likely after exchanging a couple of messages. And even less likely still if that person has demonstrated that they are quite negative and morning about their experiences on here (as then a 'thanks but no thanks' sometimes prompts a nasty response).
As others have said, if you're the common denominator it's time to figure out what you could be doing differently. |

This isn't ghosting, it's just someone you've exchanged one or two messages with losing interest. Yes it would be good of them to say so, but no big deal really, better sooner than later. |

I'd imagine, from your description.. it may be a case of them being the time wasters and your responses may be scaring them off from pursuing the wind up?
Hard to say without reading the exact conversation. Even then it can be hard working out who is on the other end of the line.. and why they behave the way they do. |

You’re profile is quite bland, four pictures of your naughty stick (one of which seems to be in a disabled toilet, the other in a family bathroom) and your bio says nothing about you at all apart from “I don’t have much free time” (instant red flag for us, is it because there’s a partner/family who don’t know you’re on here?) and that you’re looking for couples or single women.
If your responses are aimed at just getting a filthy response (like you’ve referenced with the TV/TS statement, they were a lot more “filthy”)
Then we’d be put off as well.
Yes it’s a website for play, but we want to know the people as people first. |

Sounds like they are probably guys faking being couples/single females.
Got to be honest though, you have come across as abit whiny,its not an attractive trait. Try being abit more positive, good energy attracts people as much as looks! |

Maybe you said something they didn't like or just decided the chat wasn't going anywhere.I have done this if i don't feel i am gelling with someone and they don't take the hint
Don't let it drive you mad ,we will never know why people do what they do. |

I've been on here over a year and have probably sent less than ten messages unsolicited to guys (excluding friends and forum chat). It's a potential red flag in itself, I get enough messages that I couldn't handle it.
But people disengage. It happens, nature of this place. (one, because it can be more ephemeral, two, because the inbox can be overwhelming, three, because you never know when thanks but no thanks will be met with abuse/ threats, so it's not worth it) |

What is rude is expecting a reply from strangers. None of us are obligated to mail anyone back. No matter how much rejection hurts them |

Why do people get so wound up if a stranger decides they don't want to have sex with them?
Why is it it's the entitled ones who moan about "rude" people ignoring them? You just know if you politely ended the communication you'd go from sex on legs to fat slag in a nanosecond.
I think the sooner people realised they aren't owed anything from strangers, the happier they'll be: I don't even expect anything from those I love, let alone on here! |

There is also a chance if like me they’re a site freeloader that your reply is below the horizon of their inbox if it’s filling faster than they can keep up and so they don’t know you replied. |

We get ghosted all the time and take no offence to it at all. I just figure people have lives to be getting on with. If someone wishes to talk to us, fine. If not also fine. |

It said they were already exchanging messages, in that situation I always say a polite no thanks as it's better manners than just leaving. If it's first messages then reply is necessary ... It might be just me but good manners are important to me |
