We've been on here a while now and had a couple of meets but we are getting so disheartened by time wasters! All we want to do is meet genuine people. Any advice. |

Nowt can be done. Maybe if everyone who joins has to pay ..full stop...and they have to have a veri photo. In my opinion this would not stop time wasters but reduce it considerably. We talk to people who love ping pong txt.... |

Fakes to the left of us, timewasters to the right...
It seems to be a fact of life on here, but that makes it all the sweeter to meet the genuine sexy people when you do x |

That really is shit but I'd never rearrange my life to fit around this. I fit this around my life. I'd never take a day off to meet someone on here unless it was a regular meet I know and would only ever meet for a quick drink in a local place when I was out shopping or doing something else so my time isn't wasted if they decide to no show. |

It would be abused. Sadly there are some bitter people on here that cannot take polite rejection so would revel in that, naming people as such when they are not. How many times have you seen a status slagging of a user as being a timewaster? We don't know what happpend, the person cannot defend themselves and I often think when seeing a status like that, oh dear, they got turned down!! |

Jeez, if a couple with such a gorgeous lady is struggling on here then there's little hope for anybody!

I'd be quite happy for a verified lady to call me ahead of a meet and withold her number, obviously I'd not give mine out unless I was happy she's genuine. |

"Maybe a graceful period and after that no verification means you get booted or a feedback system for actually turning up "
You do know it can take single males anything up to 12 months to get a meet simply because the number of men outnumber women couples and tv/ts right so that to me would be a waste of time also what about those who do meet but don't want to get meet verified |

It can very disheartening but don’t give up. Over time you find ways to wheedle out the time wasters and end up using your block button on a daily basis.
A lot of people on here are picture hoarders and are brave behind their keyboard which does spoil it for the genuine folk who really meet.
How about attending a club? x |

As we have written elsewhere, Fab wasn't like this in the past - we met via here when we both had single profiles about 6 years ago, when meets with attractive people were commonplace. The site is now infested with timewasters/fakes - many verified by the way (it's so easy) - and it is a crying shame because, as with others, we've almost given up on Fab now for actual meets - way too much effort now for v little return. |

There’s plenty of other ways and apps without giving out your number and you get to see them with video and voice yet so many vanish when you ask that hummmm I wonder why lol |
