Question for couples, how many times have you tried to arrange a meet but others have lost their nerve or failed to show up

In almost 20 yrs on the scene i cannot recall ever being stood up as a cpl or when meeting on my own ... and only very few that have fizzled out before meeting for whatever reason

Its never happened but now we stick to clubs so it's not relevant if it did happen.

To be honest, every time we arrange a meet we have some who message before with apologies and on there who just don’t turn up. But that’s par for the course arranging group meets.

Lost count over the years to be honest . Just a matter of dusting ones self down & crack on

We've arranged to meet people, mainly single men in clubs and they haven't turned up but as we were meeting in a club there were plenty more fish in the sea. We only really meet in clubs now for this reason.

"Countless times x"

This. Especially recently.

Meet arranged and literally around the time to meet they go UNLOS.

Loads just don't turn up and they all claim to be genuine. Now, until they're through the door we don't believe anyone is genuine we just have to chance it.

I find the longer you leave it between first conversations and meeting the more likely it is that it won't happen

I never give people a second chance, there's plenty more fish in the sea as they say

They likely never had any intention to meet, plenty of people are just on her for the flirt and chase, to give them some new material to wank over

Block and move on

With some, I’m sure they are genuine reasons when they message before hand. But others just stop reading/replying to messages. I guess some may get nervous, for some the fantasy is great but the reality is scary and for the others, they have too much time on their hands and think it’s fun to meet others around. Probably not who they say they are anyway. Block and move on!

Never had any let downs as all arranged meets have gone well. We do find the occasional conversation fizzles out with nothing arranged though.

I reckon 3 out of 4 let me down, either social or meet.

Never before but twice in one day recently.

Two single guys…both made excuses after agreeing to meet.

The good thing as a couple is it doesn’t affect you so much as we still have each other

Everyone seems to encounter no shows. Have had single women not appear or cry off with an hour to go.

Being let down is part of the obstacle course in this game.

Unfortunately some people are not reqdy yet to the real meet, and just like to fantasies about one, so will drag you on with them to their selfish journey. Unfortunately people are selfish, they do know they will not going to show up at to the meeting but luckily there are plenty others who still do and that's why we are all still here x it's part of the game. My suggestion is to go with those who have verifications and at least more than one from different people, that usually minimise the risk of stood ups or at least for a real reason and not for fulfilling thier virtual fantasies x regardless... wishing you all the best with others who will be willing to pit a smile on your faces x

When we first started swinging we used to go to a swinging club to meet people.

Haven't been since the pandemic hit and decided to try meeting people through socials to no avail.

2 no shows (had been speaking to both profiles for quite some time before social was arranged)

2 last minute cancellations

And then there are the people who aren't who or what they say they are.

Meeting people in clubs is so much easier, but not an option for us atm

We've arranged a few meets which didn't turn up and some even vanished off line. It does ruin plans when you have made then. We always ended shagging because it makes us so horny prior to the meet. On one occasion we did try and get some guys spur of the moment after a.meet failed to show but that didn't materialise as aw well

Can't say I've ever experienced a no show in all the time I've been on Fab, I've had 29 year olds turning up as a 59 year old a couple of times though.

Oh and the one verified "couple" who turned out to be just the husband who had split from her 18 months ago.

Not had any no shows, but we’ve had a couple last minute cancellations so we tend to keep meets to clubs these days.

Maybe we should venture into the club scene

Only once for us also but it doesn’t take away the annoyance of it.

We’d chatted for a while with a female and thought we were getting on really well. Booked a hotel close to her and messaged her when we arrived to say we were there. She responded with “great see you soon”. Then we went to the pub next door to meet her and she didn’t show!

It taught us a lesson though and we won’t be arranging meets in hotels that we have paid for again

Yeah that’s definitely wrong people getting you to pay for the hotel and then not show up

It is definitely easier to meet people. Or try an organised group social, they're a great place to meet like minded people as well

All it takes is a short msg somewhere on the lines of sorry cant meet now as something has come up. We met a guy before Xmas for a social, been chatting ever since and arranged to play date tonight, been arranging times etc since Saturday, this morning his profile has gone along with all our msg etc ? WTF just grow a pair and say changed my mind instead of wasting our time making all the arrangements that we have put in place for today which now has ruined any plans we could of made.
