Girls is it just me that seems to get nutters, bullshitters and weirdos from this site - unfortunately been talking to a couple of guys the last few weeks and they have either constantly let me down, turned aggressive or harassed me to the point I’m worried to meet people now.
The last one even resulted in a barrage of funny phone calls shouting abuse down the phone at me and knocking the last bit of self confidence out of me……..I’m just glad I didn’t give him my home address tbh.
I’ve been in the life for the last 10 plus years as a single fem and loved it with some really fantastic experiences but I’ve never encountered this behaviour before.
Now I just feel like I’m ashamed of my body and it’s too dangerous to meet men on here. |

In the past few months, I have noticed an increase in the number of guys who become aggressive or abusive when you decline, the number of “woe is me guys” who have self pitying personas and their messages reflect this and general negativity.
I’m not sure if it’s through frustration at the sheer competition on here for single guys but it’s getting a bit out of hand.
I rarely reply nowadays and would be very unlikely to meet from here again. |

1. Don’t give out your phone number, or if you must then use a phone specifically for here.
2. These people are strangers on the internet, why do you care what they think?
3. Raise your standards. Any hint of something you don’t like then block and move on.

There seems to be a lot of impatient people on here now who lash out verbally if they don’t get the answer they were looking for. The whole site seems to have been diluted with chancers and fantasists which makes finding the genuine people harder work than it should be. Too much like hard work for us at the moment anyway! |

This place has always been like this, a cesspit with an occasional diamond or two.
The whole Tinder thing where you can literally try and pick from a catalogue is slowly distilling into society (and mostly men), whereby they think if you're on here then you are attainable, and take it incredibly personally when the truth is not in line with their expectations.
I have a number of longstanding (female) friends on here who have all experienced aggressive or harassing behaviour from people |

It’s scary the entitlement that some of the guys on here. They believe since I’m a woman on this site I should be sleeping with every bloke that asks. A lot of them don’t handle rejection well, I’ve blocked some that turn weird or were rude and then they send abusive messages to me off another profile.
I’ve been on and off here for years but now as a single woman I keep my profile hidden a lot of the time just to reduce the number of obnoxious messages. |

This!!!! The guys all assume that because I’m here I will sleep with anything - some of them are absolutely ott with their messages and continue to harass me for weeks so now I block too |

Sorry to hear that OP, maybe switching on the 'verified only' message filter would help a little bit, although that could do with being split up to photo verified and verified in person...but please don't let a few (/1000's of) wallys spoil your fun xxx |

This is why I only won't do quick meets. If a guy is not happy to chat on here for a while till I have sussed him out I won't meet him. (after a few days, and some searching questions, the nutters normally give themselves away)
They only get my number once we are actually arranging to meet. |

Don't let them get you down, your unique and gorgeous.
We prefer social meets first, s out the d*unks and idiots.
Then followed up to a club visit.
Chin up and get back out there, you will smash it.

"In what way have they constantly let you down?"
Initially the guys will use the following tactics
Feed me a story of them being single and then find out they are married but there wives don’t love them blah blah
Make out they are genuine and looking for the same and then either keep cancelling socials or not turn up etc
And then u have the whole if I say no or they are not my type or I change my mind because I’m not going to meet u at a strange location or you have mentioned that if I refuse to do certain acts you will force yourself on me blah blah they turn aggressive and start belittling me and just vile behaviour
To then getting funny phone calls throughout the day and night shouting vile comments down the phone to the point the police are involved
I class all that of being let down by basic civil behaviour within this lifestyle |

Agree and i think it is now becoming a problem in society in general,you only have to look at some of the stuff on facebook and twitter to see how things are deteriorating.
There are definitely a lot of angry people on society these days and seems to have got worse since the initial covid lockdowns.

I feel for you OP my guess is your a normal caring trusting respectful adult woman and thought you was dealing with guys who were normal caring respectful adult men .
Sadly these men were not and it now seems that such men don't exist on sites like this and somehow its your thought that you have been treated this way .
Remember this it's not ypur thought and there is nothing wrong with you , you just got unlucky and responded to guys who have no respect for anyone who is not giving them something they want . they will behave exactly the same with every woman who dares to turn them down in the future remenber that fact .
There's been some good advice in here from a couple of the women in future op if you give your number out and change your mind during the seducing state of the chatting. just send a short message saying sorry I've changed my mind and then instantly block that number , that will stop any abusive phone calls or messages from any little boys that can't handle rejection . It seems harsh but it's not you owe it to yourself to protect your wellbeing from the nasty types that sadly exist everywhere in the world especially in the anonymous online world .
Take care chin up listen to the good advice from the women in post and put it into practise in future to protect yourself as much as you can from this sort of thing happening again . |

For a bit of balance OP it’s not just men. I had a scary experience with a woman off here last year. Won’t go into details but , threats, stalking and false accusations. I’m sorry to here of your bad experience but be careful broadcasting on here as it tends to tar all men with the same brush |

Sadly this site in utterly flooded with misoginstic incels currently. Which is driving the 100/1 male to female fab ratio in many areas of the UK.
It makes searching for the genuine single male swingers who embrace and are a credit to the swinging scene hard at times.

I think it's disgusting that some men on here are abusive and disrespectful to.you ladies.
unfortunately as in most things in life, there's always going to be a a arseholes that think they can say and do as they please. in my experience, these are keyboard wankers,.and probably never do anything about it anyway. So OP stay strong and forget about those losers . your a beautiful lady as you all are . |

Yep
All the genuine single male swingers that we know actively call out the bad behaviour that most often is done by single males on this site. Many of whom don't have the decency, personality, charm, respect and confidence required to be able to pull in real life. So they come here thinking it's a quick fix to sex when actually social skills are just as important to success in swinging.
I always question single males who feel the need to defend or balance the bad behaviour of other males. If your a decent, genuine respectful single male then none of the complaints are about you in the slightest.
I was chatting to a very good friend who is a single male and credit to the swinging scene and they are equally disgusted at some of the behaviour that single women and couples have had to deal with recently. To quote him single women are few in number on the scene and we should be doing everything to make sure they feel safe in all aspects of swinging and call out / challenge any bad behaviour.
But if you feel the need to defend single males on every thread that their bad behaviour is called out then you keep doing you.

Very much this, OP! I only give my number to people I have met/arranged to meet, but also I am very familiar with how to block unwanted calls or messages on my phone, in case things get out of hand. |

There are no excuses for some of the abhorrent behaviour some have encountered on here but I do think the model for the site’s operations doesn’t help. The male to female ratio is hideously skewed, meaning it will bring out the worst in those already aggressively minded and pathetic tendencies in those feeling sorry for themselves. It wouldn’t be a bad idea for FAB to kick out constant abusers or limit the number of new males on to the site. Having said all that, all men on here need to exercise patience and lower any expectations to avoid disappointment- Bob |

I'm keep tight filters and only get the occasional message. I get the odd strange or abusive message but they are rare and I honestly couldn't give a rat's ass about them,I just block them .
I don't give out my phone number either on here for exactly the reasons you mentioned if that makes someone not want to meet me that is their issue not mine they can move on.
I chat for a while before I do any meet and if someone won't chat for a while or there is any red flags showing I stop chatting .
I also am happy enough sending a first message to someone if their profile appeals to me when I am doing new meets and I find that's an easier approach and less hassle,rather than getting a load of messages off people I have no interest in interacting with .That's why I tightened my filters. |

J, I’m out of your age & height range (another post) but the lady above covers the basics.
Not all guys are nasty idiots but there’s good & bad in all walks of life.
You are clearly a caring lady but giving your No out too early is not good. Kik or other non NoS helps. Stay positive & be way more careful in future. Big hug to you. You seem genuinely lovely & I wish you well in your fun.  |

Absolutely this!
The alternative been suggest which is effectively to put up or shut up / suffer in silence for fear of upsetting other men is quite simply abhorrent.
It would also lead to even more new single women members leaving the site after the inevitable torrent of abuse and vulgar messages that can be received on anew profile (especially to a new profile who hasn't learnt about effectively applying filters yet).
I'm pretty sure that's the last thing any genuine respectful single male wants!
It's absolutely key that women can feel confident to post about these issues and seek support from other members of the community.

Honey so sorry to hear this, unfortunately, the ratio of male profiles on here is large. Some guys seem to think you owe them fun. Which no one does.We have both been in the scene for a decade plus, and only truly meet a handful of self entitled men.
Some guys needs to learn how to behave, and a meet is just that. If anything does happen, then that is a bonus. |

So I am actually complete opposite. Due to work I have been dead quiet with people for last couple of weeks
People must think I am not interested but as I know due to family items over next few weeks I am not making plans to meet others.
I may message people at random times but I don’t expect an answer then. Sometimes is when I think of something, sometimes it’s because I can’t sleep. |

I'm not interested in meeting single men but still get the occasional graphic or stupid message.
If I was actively looking to meet men, I would probably block everyone and look for myself. I would imagine that this would reduce the amount of problems... sadly there's always going to be horrible people. Just report, block and move on. |

Fab can get you down at times, it’s sometimes easier said than done to just say ignore it or block them.
I’m only interested in clubs these days. Private meets just aren’t worth the stress or time. I’d rather go to a club and make a night of it and never have my time wasted and be in a fun, safe environment. X |
