Who leaves the first verification? I always leave one but 50% don't leave one back. Why???

I do one first. I don't always expect one if it's just a social meet. But we don't do them for repeat play meets unless someone wants one.

I rarely meet anymore but in the past sometimes I've left them first on the odd occasion the person or persons haven't sent one back but it has never bothered me.

If someone I met veried me I would veri them back.

I would generally ask if they'd like one before leaving.

I've left quite a few verifications that weren't returned, often by people who claim they don't write verifications at all but have done numerous times.

I just mark it down to them not wanting anyone to know they had met me so that's their issue not mine.

Back in the day we used to ask for one, but once you get a handful then it doesn't matter.

I will often genuinely just not get a chance and then forget, but if im sent a verification, I do my best to return. But you really shouldn't take anything personally on fab.

Just pisses me off, like I don't need them but if I leave one for someone who doesn't have one then I do expect one I return. I don't know why, maybe just manners

As someone who recently got back on Fab, I’ve reached out to old meets for them. But after I get 5 or so I don’t really care if I get them or not.

On a side note, I did notice some fake profiles on here with quite a few verifications. Wonder how that happens?

Have found this a lot particularly with giving a first veri to someone..I wait a week and then block..doesn't cancel the verification but it can't be shown..pet hate of mine too..

I always make it a point to verify after a date, but it's rare to get the same courtesy in return. Honestly, it feels like some folks are just not using this site the right way. I'm starting to see why some people just vanish from here. I've got way more romantic connections in my real life than I've ever had through this site.

That's just crappy...like even if you don't "need" one, that does make you feel like they don't want people to know they were with you which is just plain rude!

You leave one and then a few days later, they mail and say oh did you want me to leave you one too. Drives me insane but there’s other shit that drives me insane too but I think that’s for another night.

Well that just is absolutely shit of Him. Good enough to be with, but not good enough for a veri? How can that not hurt and how inconsiderate esp after spending all that time with someone. Ugly on the inside.

For me, if someone veries me, I try to veri them back, but i wont veri first lol

I don’t leave the multiple veris unless it has been a longgggg time since we have met. I don’t understand why you would give a veri 6 times to the same person.

Thanks for that everyone, I thought it was just me acting like a spoilt child lol.

But it's not great when you don't get one back.

Last night I left one after a social and he's asking to meet again but still no veri lol

Did you ask for one back?

Sometimes people don't expect you to want one back, unless you ask.

Sometimes we get personal messages instead of veries, which are better for us personally, as it is more intimate.

You only met him last night? Maybe he just hasn’t gotten around to writing it. Maybe he doesn’t do veris after a social, only a play meet. Maybe he just isn’t great at writing them.

I really wouldn’t read too much into it. If you liked him and thought you’d want to meet again, before the whole question of a veri started, why wouldn’t you just meet him again?

Some people think veris are important and others, not so much. It's like anything in life and it's why I stopped trying to read people by their actions a long time ago.

At this stage for us, veris are a PITA but it doesn't mean that we didn't like them. We'll always do one for the first play meet but not necessarily for a social. Don't overthink it and just have fun

We only do one in return as a courtesy or if the person requests one. Couldn't care less if we never got one, they're pretty meaningless

I wouldn’t write a verification after a social unless I was asked or to return the compliment. Social verifications indicate the person showed up, can manage to transfer liquid from a cup to their own mouth and didn’t give off stalker vibes!

A wise woman of fab told me it’s the profile with second and third verification from the same profile she looks for, as that is a better indicator of someone. Most people are on their best behaviour on the the first meet.

SSHH, I told you I'd was getting round to it. THANK'S for letting the cat out of the bag on me NOW.

Joking aside, that's VERY bad form, to that to anybody.

I've never though to ask someone, did they want a verio, nor have I asked them to give me 1 either(must MAKE a mental note of it, for the future). Mine are from socials. So some have verioed me first, other's I verioed first. If I get 1, I always give 1 bad. I'm not great at them, out of respect & fair is fair to give 1 bad, weather they ask for it or even need it(In my book, so to speak). I did give a verio, didn't get 1 bad, wasn't happy about it at first. NOW, can't be arsed about it.

I don't know why I think it matters, you're right it really doesn't matter at all. I just need to get a life eh but it was his first verification, he hadn't met anyone before me so maybe he doesn't know how to

It's happened to us more than a few times where new profiles (say single profiles where we know them already as part of a couple) would ask for a first veri, but they don't return one.

I do think it's good manners to return one when someone has done you a favour. But it's no biggie.
