For us cold friend requests is the height of disrespect. Our friends pics are for people we've chatted to and are interested in meeting, the word 'FRIEND' is a bit af a givaway really! The second line of our profile is cold friend request will get you blocked but we still get 3 or 4 a day! Are we alone in this?

.....

A lot of people just see a profile photo and chance it. We currently aren't meeting, first line of our profile text yet we were asked to meet a this weekend by couples and singles alike. None of whom took any notice of our profile. A polite no or just ignore

No sweet it's a very common complaint with couples and women! I have to say there is a way around it i think take down all your private pic's and say in your profile if we chat and we like you we will share more! It's just a thought. Best wishes Pedro

I think that says all you need to know about those sending the request. People put information in their profiles to give people a flavour of what they are after. It shouldn’t be hard, read the profile and respect people’s wishes though you can still fab a picture

The crazy thing is, most of the people are pretty well veried, even couples who you think would know better! Its a small thing but infuriating none the less

We're of the same opinion. The difference is your profile pic is Uber hot so all common sense leaves the viewers brain and into their genitals so they want to see more. People generally don't care, they want to see your bits.

It's sad but it's true.

This really is annoying. We don't accept cold friend requests. To us it's just someone trying to perv our friends only pics. A lot of the requests we get are from people that haven't even got one pic up

We don't even delete the requests as they will be able to send one again unless we block them

It's exactly because of those people that we do read the profiles. We don't want to be those people. Case in point: saw your post, clicked your profile and read "straight, looking for men"... we're not for you, moving on.

It saves our time as well as yours.

Exactly. Protip: don't delete unwanted friend requests. They can't send another!

We block on principle, if they cant take time to read a profile then they're not people we want to meet, our block list is impressively extensive

We find couple's can be as bad as single or not so single men, also some single men can be very brash and no charm or charisma about them before building even a slight raport.

3 or 4 a day? I can only dream of such interest

I get the odd one but I just ignore generally. Easier to ignore than the emails from people who havn't read your profile and respected your interests / likes etc.

See you are making the assumption that these people actually read a profile

Totally agree with you though

If that's the height of disrespect to you, you've had a sheltered life!

The world is full of chancers, it's not as if we're forced to respond.

We've made some pics private for a reason and specifically requested that people not send friend requests without chatting first.. yes, we find that disrespectful, which is our prerogative and I dont think we're alone

I don't think some of you have quite grasped the concept of fabswingers.

Fabswingers isn't about you

Fabswingers isn't about what you want.

Fabswingers is all about them and everything they want,I thought everyone knew that

I find it quite the waste of time and energy to take offence at the antics of idiots here, it's easy enough to just ignore them.

I collect and ignore them but I certainly don't delete them. Prevents anyone for sending yet again a friend request.

You could write 'I'm currently dead' on your profile and you'd still get messages and friend requests. It's the nature of the fab beast. Nothing you can do about and certainly not worth getting annoyed about.
