Fab - what I've learnt

Jump to newest
 

By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

So I attended my first party on Friday night and stepped very far out of my comfort zone, from been flogged, stripping off in front of people I barely know and been tied up, getting naked with 4 other beautiful women to take photos.

I'm on/off fab 4 years and I have discovered a lot about myself, I've definitely come out of my shell ( still a bit to go) but I'm thankful to the people I've met, the ones that I now consider good friends, the ones that have been nasty which has thought me that's not my fault or issue its theirs. I spoke to a guy who met me at a social over 2 yrs ago and told me at a recent social that the difference in me since than is unreal.

I know its a swingers site but I think a lot of people miss the point, a lot join here thinking it's dial a ride, but its also a great community with great people, normal everyday people who enjoy sex.

So I want to say thanks to you all, even the twats, life is too short to be nasty and mean if you don't like someone that's OK, stay in your own lane. Live your life the way you want to live it, not the way you think you should because of others expectations or the way other people tell you, don't get to your deathbed and regret stuff. None of us are getting out of here alive.

That's great to hear. It's certainly a platform for one do discover what lies inside oneself. A road to self expression and discovery.

Great for you DD and sounds like it was a wild one .

I am very keen to discuss a similar topic with a slightly different angle in the coming days, as I had been thinking through how being on here changes us , if at all.

Hope you have a good rest

Well done DD on stepping out of your comfort zone. It's never easy and doesn't always end on a positive note but it seems like yours has.

What I've learned from fab is to continue as I see fit and not take advice from those with ulterior motives.

The positive responses I receive in the forums and private messages are a result of not bending to suit others.

I have learned that it's more than possible to be respectful and mannerly without resorting to sychophancy and lip service.

I have also learned that not everything is as it appears. While some are genuinely and rightly nonchalant towards the site in general, it is eye opening to see how many are selectively myopic to what is said or asked and by whom in the forums.

Discretion is preached but not practiced.

Fab hasn't taught me anything about myself that i didn't already know.

I have learned though only lately, not to dismiss all unverified mens profiles. I have discovered a hidden gem that im excited about meeting.

Fab has also taught me that are an awful lot of crazies out there.

Great post DD and I'm so glad you are really enjoying your fab journey now and finding the confidence to be yourself and explore your interests.

There will always be people on here who will want to ruin others journeys and experience on here. Why they do it I don't know or understand, it should be a place where people are more open minded but quite often it's not .All anyone can do is learn how to carry on and not allow others who don't have their best interests at heart to influence their experiences.

I've grown in some confidence since joining here and met people who I consider to be true friends there are even some who I haven't met yet but I still consider to be friends.Fab to me is not just about sex the social side is important as well .

But like I said everyone has their own journey and it would be boring if we all looked for the same thing on here.

Great to hear OP

And you are right lots of people do not see this as a lifestyle choice and think it's just dial a ride. Good thing is we are a community that talk and look out for each other and the later type of people do not get very far.

Hope you have lots of future adventures!

Good on ya DD I'm delighted you had such a great experience.

I know I'm not in here that much but it's still lovely to come and read these little treads that make everyone get that warm and fuzzy feeling inside and just pause and think for a minute and about all the good things about this community instead of the not so good. Everyone is here for the same reason to enjoy themselves.

Great Post and great comments too from everyone.

wouldn't you like to know

Oh DD, what can I say. I had the best fun with you on Friday and Saturday. Even the transformation from when I walked into our sleeping quarters and not even realizing you hiding in the corner until you moved, until you were leaving the next day, was amazing.

I'm only on this fab journey 5 months but can only agree with you.

It feels amazing to life your best live for a change. Feck the begrudgers, don't listen to the haters or fat shamers and go for what you would like to try.

I count myself lucky to have already made fantastic friends, and now I count you as one of them.

The social side has given me strength, positive body image, great advice and belly laughs and already memories I will always cherish. Making up for so much lost time in my life. I actually started to cry on my way home in the car when I was asked if I had a great weekend. Not with sadness, but it was a mix of absolute bliss and happiness but also the realisation of knowing now how unhappy I've really been for years.

Thank you to everyone I've met on my journey so far, even the not so nice, there was a lesson to be learnt from all. And if you are new to fab reading this, there can be lows, but if you embrace this for what it's supposed to be and surround yourself with the right people, this can be the best thing you ever done. Lollyx

For a single man this site is very frustrating. The expectation is absolutely silly. It seems to be a very closed shop and extremely hard to get anywhere here. The most frustrating part is the whole someone reads a message and doesn’t bother to reply thing. That really annoys me as I’m one that has manners and prefers to talk to someone if not interested instead of pure ignoring. I’d love to get involved but it’s not easy. I’ve met 2 women here over the years but can’t verify as you need to be verified first. Really annoying. So it’s great that you have found yourself and feel confident etc but for those of us on the outside it’s very frustrating. As I said. CLOSED SHOP.

Sorry it sounds like a frustrating experience . I was on here for ages without meeting people and having sent many a message which went unanswered . I am glad I Didn’t know about the forum as I would have ranted about it . The angry posts don’t rectify the situation, and might exacerbate it .

It’s actually not a closed shop. I have noticed the odd bloke Here and there getting invited to socials or meets with people fairly quickly. For many others it’s a gradual process . For some it never resolves I guess .

There isn’t advice which will fit you 100 per cent . You ll have to decide whether a review of your profile and pics , a long drive to a social with less restrictive invitation criteria , a genuine rapport building interaction with a fabber you’re interested in or some other way is the best for you . Or whether fab is for you at all.

Best of luck

My main gripe is when you send a message and don’t get a reply. I’ve tried all sorts of messages. Nice ones, naughty ones, long ones etc. Not even an acknowledgment. I’m not angry but just very frustrated. This is a world I’ve tried very hard to get into but I stand by my quote when I say it’s a closed shop.

I don’t think blokes who meet a lot are conformists necessarily Although I am no expert as I don’t interact with most and I am not a socials attender , but hoping for this to change .

Some use humour , and know when to get away with a bit of slagging that’s miles away from angry rants

Some seem to be good to chat to

Some would rely on looks

Some make huge effort to attend things

Some rely on the help of a couple profile if there is a fabber they’ve clicked with

Some use a forensic approach to combing through profiles and sending many messages and hoping one gets things moving

And some will restrain their natural tendencies and maybe try to charm and conform as you say but that’s not a long lasting strategy as the mask slips eventually

Or a combination

And there are loads of categories I have missed I am sure

One of the first bits of advice, if you send a message and don't get a reply, just move on. Some women get 100s of mails. As for the replies sometimes it's just not worth the grief if you reply saying no thanks and I know you say you are polite etc but unfortunately no way to know that.

Secondly there is someone for everyone on here, stick with it. Lose the negativity from your profile, it's your shop window draw us in. Get involved on forums abd enjoy the experience and all going well someone will click with you

"Fab hasn't taught me anything about myself that i didn't already know.

I have learned though only lately, not to dismiss all unverified mens profiles. I have discovered a hidden gem that im excited about meeting.

Fab has also taught me that are an awful lot of crazies out there. "

Couldn't agree more about unverified men, and the crazies.... Well that goes without saying

All good points ,I suppose I use the forensic approach myself, that said I don't send a lot of messages, (I go by gut instinct also, a profile can say a lot of things ,but forum posts and replies give a better insight to the person) and if not replied to,I delete and dismiss. I quite simply wouldn't have as much free time as some seem to on here or maybe it's that this would be lower on my list of priorities.

This exactly especially the last bit about your profile .I look at a profile before I even open a message from someone new if it doesn't appeal to me or has negatively on it then chances are I won't answer. Especially the negative part would be massive turn off and would make me think this person would turn quick if things don't turn out the way they want.

And yes I understand how frustrating it is for men on here but I'm not here to deal with others issues and problems with the site I prefer to concentrate on my own journey and those I get on with on here.I use to try and give advice before if anyone asked but I've found 95 per cent completely ignore any advice they are given anyhow so now I can't be bothered.

I relation to fab being a closed shop I can understand the frustration and yes of course it's somewhat a closed shop because its a lifestyle site which is still somewhat shamed in general society especially for women.

I had as slow a start here as anyone but in reflection it was down to my interaction with the site and not the other way round.

Fab was a means to an end (or getting an end away )

I found the site some night I wanted a ride and logged in and messaged people when I was looking for instant gratification and surprisingly low responses. I approach couples with no real interest in the dynamic because the wife was hot in general I was just a dog trying to hump nearby legs.

I was never rude or graphic and sometimes I was even slightly witty but I was always here woth tunnel vision.

A couple of things happened that changed that for me.

I got fed up of getting nowhere and gave up on meeting and I found the forum.

I found a funny, argumentative inclusive community and started getting interested in logging on when my blood wasn't up so to speak.

I started genuinely being interested in other people's experiences and reasons for being here and slowly I started getting interest off people for meeting.

OK that was longer than intended my point in short is if you want this to be a hook up site soley your going to probably be met with disappointment (there are of course exceptions) and your probably better off on tinder.

If you want to get involved in the site/community in general take it slow message people not because you thing you want to fuck them but there is something that really intrigues you about them and express that in the message. Get involved in the forums and try to get along to meet and greets.

Some people use this site as a dating site...me included... & that's ok too. There isn't a rule to say we can't do this.

I don't understand though what you mean by Quite - "if it doesn't work out on fab then someone doesn't have a leg to stand on when blaming the site or the people on it" ... We're all responsible for who we meet etc... & Why would someone blame the site? Soz I'm just a little confused as to what they means...

Good points ,but what if you don't want to get involved in the social activities/community and are just here for respectful ,NSA ,occasional encounters as best suits your own already busy lifestyle.

Then great. Go for it there is no one right way to use the site. But in my opinion there are other apps that work better for that type of encounter. And if it doesn't work out on fab then someone doesn't have a leg to stand on when blaming the site or the people on it

Put simply if you aren't willing to use all the tools and outlets of the site you can't then turn around and blame lack of progress on "fab being closed shop" or reasons in a similar vein

I get ya now... thanks for elaborating

Another example of not using the Quote - "tool & outlets" would be men not heeding advice when they ask for constructive help with their profiles/bios... & a week later they're complaining again that they're not getting any replies ...& They haven't made the changes advised... They still have the same very close up graphic sexually explicit dick pic as profile pic & more very similar in gallery & also have that they`d meet 18-99 yr olds...lmao...

I have given my advice many times when they've asked...either here in forums or some mail me privately...

But I'm beginning to think why should I bother any more... Lots don't heed the advice given by me & other fabbers. But some do & those that did started to receive replies etc...

So in reference to OPs question... One of the minor things I've learnt from fab is ...Some men never take the advise they look for or request on here & 10yrs later they're still here saying they can't get replies never mind a meet & yup with the same profile photos & 1 line bio & yup saying they`d fk a 99 yr old...

I've learned lots more important things from this site... Safety issues too etc... But I ain't going there.

Soz for the essay... Guess it's a rant also.

It’s that very attitude that has resulted in it being a closed shop for you. Sounds like you’d be better off choosing a different app if you only have time for one.

Thanks a mill for your explanation...so I kinda had it right...

I don't understand though what you mean by Quite - "if it doesn't work out on fab then someone doesn't have a leg to stand on when blaming the site or the people on it" ... We're all responsible for who we meet etc... & Why would someone blame the site? Soz I'm just a little confused as to what they means...

Found that an odd statement myself too

Put simply if you aren't willing to use all the tools and outlets of the site you can't then turn around and blame lack of progress on "fab being closed shop" or reasons in a similar vein

Right ,so do all and anything you can to get up on a cracked plate... interesting

It’s that very attitude that has resulted in it being a closed shop for you. Sounds like you’d be better off choosing a different app if you only have time for one.

Who said it was a was a closed shop for me , I was just pointing out a few not so obvious issues that some single guys may have, if you take the time to read my profile you'll see that the cracked plate comment is entirely the opposite to my attitude and merely a wordplay on what the poster said. Apologies ,I can't help if my sense of humour isnt understood or misconstrued.

To quote one of your own posts above “a profile can say a lot of things ,but forum posts and replies give a better insight to the person”

Precisely

So you agree that your posts here are a true reflection of how you see the site

As I've posted them yes, how others have perceived them ,I have no idea, a lot is just sarcasm which usually doesn't translate well in text. Anyway please let's agree to disagree as I almost feel I'm being harassed here. "

^^^^^^^ Quote - "I almost feel I'm being harassed here."

^^^^^^^

Unfortunately yes sometimes it can feel like we are being harassed on here & sometimes we actually are, Some also just

like to 'nit-pick'

I've no idea why someone is assuming it's a "closed shop for you" either...what's that about... It's clear you weren't referring to yourself when you said that earlier...prime example of misconstrued.

Also lots of times what we say in these forums is seriously misconstrued & misinterpreted & twisted so far that you'd wonder where some peeps brain is at. I find this happens only mainly in the Irish forums to me personally...strange eh...yup ... It does make me wonder...But I find it quite entertaining the reactions & misinterpretations & lashin out that some peeps do... Such is fab eh

What I've learned from Fab is sometimes you need to be very careful as to what you type.

Threads like this can be definitely entertaining but sometimes just as uncomfortable as occasionally it can look like a personal attack on some poor sod that wasn't careful. It can be very unfair that some people will go out of their way to pick apart people when there is no justification, not really. Yes, it's usually because someone posted an easy target comment. Regardless if the context was clear. They see someone mess up by leaving something possibly controversial open to misinterpretation, a chance to I suppose kick someone in public while they have the chance. I mean at the end of the day regardless of what people use the site for or what they get out of it when ya look at it this is a site full of anonymous people looking for sex.

I suppose some people get off on that more than the sex

Right, I'm ready for my roasting

Good points ,but what if you don't want to get involved in the social activities/community and are just here for respectful ,NSA ,occasional encounters as best suits your own already busy lifestyle.

Then great. Go for it there is no one right way to use the site. But in my opinion there are other apps that work better for that type of encounter. And if it doesn't work out on fab then someone doesn't have a leg to stand on when blaming the site or the people on it

Actually no, not without breaking forum rules. So I'll just leave it as is. But thank you for looking for the opportunity to create something bigger out of it. Happy fabbing

Delighted to hear you're enjoying the journey, the good, bad and indifferent.

It's the latter 2, I believe, teach you more than anything else can in life...

Because there's no up without down, there's no happy without sad, there's no light without dark...yet the light throws shadows...but it's those that make us appreciate the good all the more.

As tough as things may get, it's only ever transient, this too shall pass and it will get better! I know, I've been in the darkest of places and didn't want to come back!

Grab life by the horns, don't let it pass you by, we've only got the one, live it to the full.

Most people on their deathbeds will talk about regrets being the things they haven't done, rather than things they did do!

I didn't need Fab to learn this, but Fab has certainly taught me many things along the way

Thanks guys. Some very good points in there. If I’m to change my profile what would be the main points to include? I don’t make a secret of the fact that the only thing on my bucket list is the elusive MMF FFM MFM or whatever combination you can think of. Any advice would be appreciated.

I am no expert on this but would suggest

A profile pic swap to one with the diesel top

Remove the dark tongue sticking out pic

Édit the bio big time: no need to talk not being verified , being messed around , your compromise to bisexuality to achieve your threesome goal . They all need to go

Keep it positive .

Can only speak for myself, but a tongue sticking out makes me question the maturity level of the profile owner, plus I'm never going to read a profile that long

The diesl pic is your best for profile and outside of that I'd suggest making your bio much shorter. Keep a little bit of what you like and who you are to generate conversation.

And when you message someone you want to chat with, socially meet and hopefully eventually play with just keep the chat reasonably clean until they are comfortable with you first.

That's all advice I got and it has definitely helped me, happy fabbing
