"I’ve had a some fantastic times here on fab. I think, increasingly, however that it’s a young man’s space. What do others - men, women and couples - think? "
I agree once over 50 or 60 tends to get nothing. Womens ideas mostly i suppose. Always after the younger men. I think age doesn't matter so much for men. My preference is connection rather than just looks or age. |

When I first joined in my early 20s all I met were mainly older men. Now I am nearly 40, my target audience (were I single and looking) would be men in their early -mid 20s. So I have gone from one extreme to the other. My current partner is 30 years younger than my ex husband was. |

That's not been my experience. I'm quite selective who I meet, so it's never been a sex fest for me on Fab, but I still chat and meet people since I made it all the way to 54.
A key thing is not just relying on emails. Once I started meeting at clubs and socials my experience was transformed. |

I only joined in my 50s and have had reasonable success despite being very selective about who I messaged. I've had similar success on Craigslist, Reddit, and Tinder.
Now as a couple we get a lot more interest, though. |

As mentioned above, don’t just rely on messages here.
I’ve met people below and above my preferred ages in socials and clubs and really hit it off with them- but I would have been unlikely to connect online. |

I see a fairly even split of those seeking younger vs older. Although I suspect it's generally that people are more selective due to quantity of male users compared to other profiles. So odds for a male any age stacked against them....maybe |

Ruby has a preference for older men but it's not set in stone, but isn't generally attracted to them.
As people say, personality and communication is far more a trait that gets her/our attention. Have found that a well thought out, or funny first message works wonders for a response from her/us (and reading the profile).
A pattern have noticed is impatience with both younger and older. It kind of kills the mood most times. |
