its not often we arrange to meet single men as its not really our thing .... but once in a blue moon we give it a go (about 3 times in the past 2 years) so tonight, monday, we had spent over a week chatting and arranging to meet a single guy who lived 30 mins away, we said we would meet in the beer garden of a well known pub, after 30 mins late i emailed to see where he was, reply was i'm lost ?? be there shortly. another 30 mins, sitting outside & freezing we asked again, still very lost, dont know where i am.
at this point we left and decided he never intended turning up ..... why waste so much of our time??? why not be honest and say i dont want to meet???
why arrange with no intention of showing up.
this is why single men have a bad rep .... be honest ffs ... like i said ... not very often we meet single men, now it will be never again |

He was out of order wasting your time like that but not all single men are a waste of time.
I think idiots like that give single men a bad name which is a shame for the genuine ones as they all get labelled with the same tag.
Maybe he had an attack of last min nerves...still no excuse though, he should have been straight with you xx |

Well i have had the total opposite !!!
Am a single (ish) male have been chatting to 2 couples on here for a couple of wks now and keep promising " yeah this wk is good"
Not heard from one in 3 days and the other is saying "we will let you know?"
Not only single blokes give people bad names There are some couples as well?

No.
Single men have a bad rep because certain couples who have met just 3 single men in 2 years think they have earned the right to generalise about us all. |

It makes me laugh that some men in couples knock single men (not refering to anyone on here!) but honestly some do... When they split up he will be a??? before they got together he was a??? come on, if your man is decent, then why would it not make sense that a man is a man and all men are men so man it's all good
peace x |

No!! You cannot judge single males on other single males letting you down every single person in the world is different! There's letdowns and idiots all around the world but everyone should have an equal chance and not be judged by others actions.!! |

"Ooops, think this could get interesting...white choccy button anyone??
C'mon all you single guys, stick up for yourselves xx "
My time is precious so if i say i wanna meet then i will, It is then up to the couple/female to make the other move and say they will.
So far the couples have been the waste of space!! |

...Oh, and, as a rule, anyone who *emails* the fact that they're lost and 30 minutes late probably hasn't left the house.
Better luck next time. |

we have met, or not met in this case, 3 single men in 2 years because that is our preference, maybe you misinterpreted our comment... we were merely pointing out that what we have experienced is why alot of single men on here complain that they cannot get a meet (see many previous posts) and therefore ALL get a bad rep caused by some others who may, or may not, be a minority.
so, we will not be meeting single men off this site ..... and continue, as we have for some time, meeting them in clubs. |

Really sorry you feel this way and you have been let down?
But 3 single men in 2yrs is that right to put us down that hard???
Most couples/females have no problems? |

"as previously stated .... its our choice and preference ... we meet singles in clubs so it works out at more than 3 in 2 years if you count the clubs"
I think that is best choice for singles blokes to get their foot on the door (so to speak) clubs then couples/females know they aint time wasters?

We've met some great single guys and had a brilliant time with them.
The one time we had a 'no show' for a social meet, we just thought 'oh well, never mind' and went on to enjoy each others company instead.
When we got home we reported the profile and applied the block. |

I find it strange how 'misinterpretation' is always cited when the response to an inflammatory post is negative.
Either way, "Single men, waste of time or not" does not leave a lot of room for doubt. |

I think regardless of whether they are single, or a couple... some definitely travel more hopefully than actually arrive. There will always be those more enthusiastic at the prospect than the reality.

One bad meet and apparently all single men are bad 
Never had a single bloke not show,and we have picked up hours before in chat and had meets arranged a week in advance.
You say its not something you often do...perhaps you need to look at your way of choosing,or just chalk it up to experience and move on. |

Also considering that that the mention that you do not meet single men is not there?
Of course you are gonna attract attention. Block us if you have no need for us and prefer couples?

It seems to us that no matter if people are single or in a couple, male or female ; Someone, somewhere on this site will have a moan about a timewaster or a no show. It goes with the territory. We have never had a no show. A guy called us at the last minute when we were waiting in the pub for him but he had good reason for not being able to make the meet.
These threads do get tedious after a while but people need to let off steam. |

Well you never know! I got lost trying to come back to Cleethorpes from Louth after a meet their once!! ( So that means i am fairly local to Louth)
I had met a lovely couple, played (as you do )
then driving home, in the pitch black i got so lost, ended up down bizzare lanes that scarred the shit out of me! And i had my sat nav on! Ooooo still makes me shudder that one!

My only advice to couples who want to meet single blokes, is that perhaps they arrange to meet them at one of the many social events held across the country.
(not floating my own boat here) I have never messaged anyone for a meet on this site, and I have been here for a long time I have seen the single blokes come and go, and some who are genuine that have been branded by couples but have shining reviews from single fems.
Unfortunatly its all a bit hit and miss whatever your looking for here and time can only tell. If your willing to stick at it i'm sure you might just find what your looking for  |

And just because im loving this thread so much, and want to add my penny lol, i have only ever had one no show from a single guy on here!!
Must admit i was truely stunned, but more scared than anything because i had arranged to meet in a lane very late at night! (I know, silly girl taking risks).
On the whole, i have found the single men on here lovely guys. met more than I have verifications because I choose to keep some things to myself. Oh
And i have not got engaged to one of them off here lol xxxx |

We host parties and have been let down by both single guys and couples in equal messure.
No matter what the gender group there will always be people who do not fulfil commitments they have made, especially on a site where you gain free access to the main site contents. |

Just had to join in on this one !! I've been on here about a month and I've had a wink and friend request of a couple , started mailing each other , get close to sort a meet then they go cold ?? I'm not one for pestering so that one out the window . Had a 'couple ' mail me , telling me all the filthy things they want me to do to his wife then the guy wants to webcam but his wife isn't there !! Then his profile changes to bisexual !! What I'm saying is , women , couples, men , there's liers all over this site . Just wish there was a way to rid them and let us genuine people meet and have fun ? |

If it wasn't for single men I'd have a dull time on here so more power to them. He got lost, so that counts as a reasonable excuse. When you're sat in a pub and his phone number is not recognised is the time to get fretty. |

"Not all tomatoes are rotten  "
You aint seen the ones I just found in the botom of the fridge! 
I can't remember having any no shows, but we have stopped meeting single guys. Our problem was we only had one who was hard enough to actually penetrate and that went when we passed him the condom!
Now we have even less time, we tend to stick to clubs on a Saturday or private meets and parties.
But would never tar all of one group with the same brush. I also can't see what the frequency of meets has to do with whether or not someone has had luck! So, three in two years and no luck is still no luck! It may be their way of choosing that is the problem, but they are no shows none the less. |

I have been pleasantly surprised reading through this thread at some, no most of the comments. I think as a few have pointed out, there will always be disappointnents in every walk of life, in every scenario.
If we all gave up on something so quickly, or were so fast to jump to massive conclusions without any real foundation of reason, then the would would be a very dull place. No-one would ever take a chance, nothing new would what happen...we might as well go sit in our front rooms and be dull and uninteresting... The spice of life is key and you know what, a disappointment here or there only makes the good times good, or the good meets bloody brilliant

3 guys in 2 years! And that's sufficient to make such a sweeping statement!
of course couples never let anyone down?

To anyone that says they've been let down by single men (assuming they meet couples and/or single women also) I say "And how many couples or single females have likewise let you down?
The some number? More you say? What's that? You still meet couples and single women and hold no complaints despite this?
Well, I guess that's a different yardstick being used then. Oh well. |

We meet a fair few single guys and have never been let down by a single one. One had to call off as he had to go into work but as we saw that as a genuine reason we didn't deem it a let down.
We once met a guy off another site a d it was his first time meeting. He admitted he almost didn't turn up and he was that nervous it was an awful meet. We understand that not all meets will be great and put it down to experience. What it has driven us to do is only meet guys who have previously been verified. These guys know what they're doing and it takes away all the nerves and awkwardness, bit rough on the guys just starting out but we make a personal choice as is our prerogative.
So in summary there are some great guys on here and it would be a sorrier place without them. |

It's time for some science...
From WankiPedia:
The Single Male (Homo TimeWastia) is reknowned for being untrustworthy and reckless. However, when paired with a Single Female (Homo CanDoNowtWrong) a Single Male can reach the highest form of evolution and become a Couple (Homo DuoFuckingPerfectia). |

It's not just single guys that can be no show's and end up wasting your time. Several years ago I had a MF couple do something similar to what the OP has said. Except that when I kept texting to ask where they were I was told the female half was still getting ready and putting her make-up on. I waited for over an hour before coming to the conclusion they weren't turning up. |

My self I would not get to hung up about it like my self I think my profile is honest and genuine probably to much im sure some look and think he is not single if I told a few porkes im sure I would get a meet but like most things in life you tell a few porkes and you go a long way so the genuine guys are only fighting with the fackers and porky teller thats life on here |

Well we only meet single guys and have only had one ring an hour before the meet to say his daughter had turned up unexpectedly but he came the next week and we all enjoyed a great evening together. We have had some great fun and are looking forward to much more from the lovely guys on fab. |

"we have met, or not met in this case, 3 single men in 2 years because that is our preference, maybe you misinterpreted our comment...
I find it strange how 'misinterpretation' is always cited when the response to an inflammatory post is negative.
Either way, "Single men, waste of time or not" does not leave a lot of room for doubt."
I was thinking the same thing.
I find it funny though, it's always the single men who do a no show that get mentioned most of the time, where there are loads of couples that do no shows to.
It seems though through my own experience that the couples bitch and moan like hell when a single male does a no show a hell of a lot more than a single man would do when a couple does a no show on himself. |

i think alot of guys sign up to this place pretty blind. most of us (imo) are here to fuck and dont know or care to know what this swinging lark is really about. maybe they get coldfeet when they actually realize its a done deal |

For the record, I am a bastard... Yes all single blokes are time wasters, I am quite possibly the ONLY genuine man on here, but I am quite picky, and o be honest your profile really doesn't do it for me.... Sorry was that rude? Insulting? Single man remember, keep tarring us all with the same brush as a few individuals and we might just think, fuckit, might as well be what they say I am.
For the record, I met my first couple last night, after 9 failed meets with other couples, all couples are...................different
Happily, the single inflatable ladies still love me, my degree in pneumatics has finally paid off |

Only ever cancelled once and for that I gave two days notice. Couldn't drive with a broken foot. Have had three promised meets with couples where they didn't show though and all without warning or apology.
But thats folk aint it? Move on!

Sorry to hear about your no show.
I read soooo many times about single guys not showing up..come on guys if you arrange a meet.....TURN UP.......and if there is GENUINE reason ( i.e not MY DOG HAS ESCAPED. THE CAR HAS BROKEN DONE ) have spoke to a couple that were given those excuses.
If you cannot make it. let people know in advance.
It's the time wasting single guys like that, that make it so difficult for single guys like me to meet anyone.
RANT OVER!!!.
CONCLUSION : not all singles guys are a waste of time

Digs deep (very Deep) into long pockets with my short arms to locate my two pennuth worth!
Couples I have had some genuinely great times with a few couples as well as single ladies from here and other sites - So no real complaints about either - However an observation or two re couples.
a) have experienced chatting on line to couples swapping pics arranging meets and only male of couple turns up!
b) have arranged meets with couples having chatted on line for both to turn up and female know nothing about the reason they are in an out of the way pub!
c) have arranged meets with couples and chatted on the phone to both, only for the female to get cold feet and pull out but not let me know!
4) have arranged meets with couples only for female to say I am only here coz he wants to do this/demands I do this - Thats normally When I make polite apologies and leave
E) My all time favorite is the couples who swap dozens of messages ask all the questions under the earth, tell you their fantasy, tell you that you are exactly what they are looking for, then the next day have deleted all the messages and blocked you or hidden their profile. And single guys are only on here to get off on messaging and pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess there are single guys who make a bad name for us, as well as couples who make a bad name for them. I also guess that when you have driven 50 miles or more, arranged meets only for people not to arrive that threads like this pop up as it is only natural to let off steam.
Nothing further M'lord |

We've not had the pleasure of being blocked yet but we have been ignored after sending messages to couples who were all up for the idea on our friends list just to be ignored. So far at least we haven't had many single guys string us along. |

We have met some great single males,its not easy picking one just by reading profiles,sometimes you meet a great guy and everything pans out like you hoped it would sometimes it doesnt.
There are some on this site that mess you around but thats not limited to single males at all its just as prevelant with couples aswell.
One bad experience shouldnt put you off trying what you want. |

such a weighted question and bound to causecontroversy, I am surprised it was allowed on forum. No one has the right to off handedly just post against other groups i think most replies agree. I have met some nice couples but some can be awkward or unreliable same as any human being. Its easier to just get along .I think, but thats just me. Enjoy everyone x lol |

And the moral of the story is ...... in all walks of life there are people who will waste your time, have bad manners, and are generally not worth knowing.
The flip side of the coin is that there are just as many people who will enrich your life, who have manners and are a real pleasure to know - with the emphasis on 'pleasure'. |

To to OP, perhaps you can take something positive away from this that will stand you in good stead for all of your future meets in terms of your selection policy.
When you were messaging the guy and speaking to him on the phone for example did he come across as confident, experienced, fun and positive? Was he able to lead or steer the conversation in interesting ways, or did you have to do all the work ? In short did he demonstrate any skill and subtlety in the wrt of seduction?
Did you check out his verifications? Did you check out who had verified the people who had verified him? Did you spot anyone you knew or at least knew of?
Was he completely open about showing face pics? Did he have more than one?
You can add your own criteria to this but the bottom line is that, while you can never eliminate those who are less than genuine from the site, a bit of simple leg work can reduce your chances of a no-show to almost nil.
While I've had my share of conversations with supposed swingers who have been less than genuine in their stated desire to meet, I've only ever had one no-show in 3 years - and that was a spur if the moment meet when I ignored my selection criteria, so I only had myself to blame.
And remember - a cancellation isn't the same as a no-show - if you've followed a good selection process, a cancellation, while disappointing, is often merely a postponement

its just as well I am not really in a mood to argue....
seriously.... you base your sweeping judgements on a sample size of 3.....
let me say that again..... 3!!!
based on the same sample size.... marmite would be banned, the currancy of the UK would be jelly beans.... and your govt would be the monster raving looney party.......
in fact based on a sample size of 3 I'd be the bestest uncle in the world... who buys doughnuts.... and plays guitar hero...
I'd also be the world champion at "paper,rock,scissors"
sorry... is that mocking enough...... yes that is sarcastic!!! oooh... on a sample size of 3 I bet i could be world sarcasm champion as well |

"It's time for some science...
From WankiPedia:
The Single Male (Homo TimeWastia) is reknowned for being untrustworthy and reckless. However, when paired with a Single Female (Homo CanDoNowtWrong) a Single Male can reach the highest form of evolution and become a Couple (Homo DuoFuckingPerfectia)."
Wonderful! |

Crikey what a long long post!
I would say from my point that I am totally genuine and have had a couple of meets and always turn up if I say I am going to.
However, I do send alot of emails to single females asking if they want to chat and get no reply, not even a no thanks! I have even tried with a few couples and get no reply even when I have sent face pics!
I guess there are just lots of timewasters about who have no intention of meeting, what a shame as they dont know what they are missing lol |

Single men on the whole are great. They put them selves out, are polite and turn up on time. Its the couples here who are a big disappointment as far as i am concerned. |

"we have met, or not met in this case, 3 single men in 2 years because that is our preference, maybe you misinterpreted our comment... we were merely pointing out that what we have experienced is why alot of single men on here complain that they cannot get a meet (see many previous posts) and therefore ALL get a bad rep caused by some others who may, or may not, be a minority.
so, we will not be meeting single men off this site ..... and continue, as we have for some time, meeting them in clubs."
I am not going to get into name calling etc.
I arrange to meet and turn up. I don't meet often because most of my meets are bloody miles away (Im in Liverpool she's in wales as an example) but I always turn up or know well in advance if I can't and let someone know.
I'd say that you have been unlucky in this case and that, as has been said before, if he was emailing he wasn't coming. If you were lost wouldn't you call to ask directions?
Next time, check out verifications. Ignore web and phone veri's, go for blokes with meet veris. That way they have turned up to be verified. Simples. |

Doesn't mean they'll turn up again though! Both times I was stood up were by men who were meet verified. Best thing to do if chat lots beforehand. Nothing is 100% but IMO people are less likely to flake when a rapport has been made. |

well as many may say veris mean nothing etc, I do my research on my meets unless I'm feeling spontaneous.I look at other profiles check out the frequency of meets, who they have met(if its been verified), I know that there are singles,cpls who have been verified from meets but sometimes the lack of, can make me wonder how 'into' swinging they are in MY opinion.
My aim i to normally want to meet some I've met again, introduce them to others I have met and possibly likewise.
Some people are asking for a few veris on a prospective meets profile and in some cases it makes sense.
*and again I will point my personal opinion wich is..I want to know a litle bit about the person(s), so a veri like, "she sucks for BLANK"- gives me fuck all info on if she is fun...which I would say most of my meets have been....even before we start shagging

On a more serious now that I've wiped my chin we haven't encountered many timewasters on here and from our limited experience and talking to others, I think that you get dreamers, fakes, timewasters etc in equal measures like rugby said. A good filtering system and not taking it to heart helps. Ms |

"its not often we arrange to meet single men as its not really our thing .... but once in a blue moon we give it a go (about 3 times in the past 2 years) so tonight, monday, we had spent over a week chatting and arranging to meet a single guy who lived 30 mins away, we said we would meet in the beer garden of a well known pub, after 30 mins late i emailed to see where he was, reply was i'm lost ?? be there shortly. another 30 mins, sitting outside & freezing we asked again, still very lost, dont know where i am.
at this point we left and decided he never intended turning up ..... why waste so much of our time??? why not be honest and say i dont want to meet???
why arrange with no intention of showing up.
this is why single men have a bad rep .... be honest ffs ... like i said ... not very often we meet single men, now it will be never again"
I have another issue with some guys and couples who want to endlessly talk about what they want to do, but don't follow it up with a meet.

Single guys waste of time or not....Not
We have met some great single guys off here and another site. Plus a few that haven't been so great....but that's life.
In general we have been very lucky but then we do choose who we meet very carefully. Have only ever had one no show off a single guy and that was one who we had met already (and he did text to say he couldn't make it)
