"Looking at the thread "what's your goal on fab", many of us are looking for friendship as well as sex.

Other friendships are not as obvious to others, but I would equally sit and talk to them all day. When I see other friendships on here it warms my cockles, and see it as fab bringing like minded people together. And it's only human to want to connect to one another. Guess my questions are have you found friendship on fab? Is it something you actively seek out or something that developed over time? Or do you find it nauseating when friends are chatting on the forum? " Not as yet but I’m totally open for this. So hey everyone. Have noticed it’s a bit cliquey with the same people popping up over and over but trying to jump in there and get involved. It must be intimidating for some newbies who don’t get how fab and the forums are. X | |||

"I mean theres people I'd go out for drinks with and have a laugh with from fab, but I wouldn't call it a proper friendship. I have a small group of actual friends outside fab, friends that are there for you and you them no matter what. To me that's friendship not just people you know for giggles. " | |||

" Bizarrely enough, the more I talk with connections, the less sexually focused my relationship becomes. I've made connections on here over the years and drop texts to them and meet for a coffee when life allows. Odd I know, but having casual sex with them, would almost feel like I was using them. I like the connections I've made. Sometimes we take people for granted on here...they're just as human as my real world." Love this..my good friends on here I don t think we ve ever talked sex..sexuality but not sex... | |||

" Have noticed it’s a bit cliquey with the same people popping up over and over but trying to jump in there and get involved. It must be intimidating for some newbies who don’t get how fab and the forums are. X This. Friendships are eluding me. " But like any kind of friendship (real world or anywhere) they build over time, finding that person you instantly "click" with is a rarity (one to be held onto for sure but a rarity all the same). Those "groups" of friends referred to above have all evolved over time and been forged through people just throwing caution to the wind and getting stuck in. I'm not saying it's easy, because it's not but give it time, keep plugging away and being you and you'll find them, and often in the least expected places. Someone I'm friends with here, at face value is polar opposites from me, but we found a friendship all the same and are actually very alike in the way we think. | |||

"I've never been friends with a female that I didnt want to pump! Even my male friends partners! . You kill me It's only funny because it true! You’ve proved my theory my dear!!! Haha....what was your theory? Men want to ‘pump’ even female friends! Men have argued this does not happen but you’ve proved me right. " Not all men are the same though.....I still think if a girl smiles at me, shes wanting pumped! | |||

"Looking at the thread "what's your goal on fab", many of us are looking for friendship as well as sex. And it's got me thinking, I've made several friends on here, both male and female who'd I love to sit and have a natter down the pub with. Which often spills onto the forum as chat and banter. Other friendships are not as obvious to others, but I would equally sit and talk to them all day. When I see other friendships on here it warms my cockles, and see it as fab bringing like minded people together. And it's only human to want to connect to one another. Guess my questions are have you found friendship on fab? Is it something you actively seek out or something that developed over time? Or do you find it nauseating when friends are chatting on the forum? Not as yet but I’m totally open for this. So hey everyone. Have noticed it’s a bit cliquey with the same people popping up over and over but trying to jump in there and get involved. It must be intimidating for some newbies who don’t get how fab and the forums are. X Totally agree.

"I've been here 5 yrs and only made male friends. I don't trust anyone on here anymore, everybody seems to have an agenda. It is lovely when friendships form but I'm a loner, and don't want to get close to anybody on here again. " You still want pumped though, right? | |||

" Have noticed it’s a bit cliquey with the same people popping up over and over but trying to jump in there and get involved. It must be intimidating for some newbies who don’t get how fab and the forums are. X This. Friendships are eluding me. But like any kind of friendship (real world or anywhere) they build over time, finding that person you instantly "click" with is a rarity (one to be held onto for sure but a rarity all the same). Those "groups" of friends referred to above have all evolved over time and been forged through people just throwing caution to the wind and getting stuck in. I'm not saying it's easy, because it's not but give it time, keep plugging away and being you and you'll find them, and often in the least expected places. Someone I'm friends with here, at face value is polar opposites from me, but we found a friendship all the same and are actually very alike in the way we think." This is so true. Also be brave and send those messages. I've made some great friends from seeing someone who intrigued me and plucking up the courage to drop them a message. | |||

"I’ve made friends with a few and then there are those who I thought were friends but turned out not to be " This is true but I believe on here we are meant to be in each others lives for a while when we need each other, then it naturally fades as we come across different people we need, sometimes its a long while friendship, sometimes its a short one. | |||

"No I’m yet to make any friendships on Fab though I’d like to. The forums can appear to be somewhat clicky which is the nature of many clubs and similar where folks engage a lot. The Chatroom doesn’t work for me - not a place I’d choose to hangout really. Bottom line is I’m v relaxed about what will come and in whatever form. " Great attitude, stick around and join in, it will happen when you least expect it | |||

"I think I also find it hard to express my full self on here. In reality we are all multifaceted beings with lots of idiosyncrasies and the connection of these qualities with others is what allows us to form lasting friendships ... On here, I probably accurately portray around 5-10% of who I truly am. That’s likely why my relationships on here feel less connected or authentic than my real life friendships. But I think that’s natural. And I’m definitely open to developing the friendships on here that I’ve begun to form more deeply. " Absolutely. The strongest ones for me are those I've met in person. I don't think its impossible purely online but it sure takes longer. | |||

"Yes.. a lovely group of ladies. And some others I speak to individually. Always searched for a friendship based relationships on here. Some didnt turn out to be and had hidden agenda, but that's life. Disappointments do happen, but that's why those who remain and make it easy to be around them are true gems.

"I always hold myself one step back from really being friends with people, there are lots here I feel I could be good friends with, but feel I lack the energy to be a good enough friend" This for me too if i’m honest. I just don’t have the emotional energy to take the time to get to know someone. When i come on here, this is my “me time“. | |||

"Nice thread Frida! (my bestie) I won't deny I've made a few misjudged friendships here in the past, HOWEVER I've also made a handful of really, really great friends here who I talk to most days outside of fab about non-fab things and sometimes their opinions and support have been invaluable to me. Forever friends if you will who have opened me up to new ideas and ways of thinking and I'm better for that. If people don't like seeing me chat with my friends on my threads then they can choose to ignore them, and I think tbf some do but I also think that's cool. I'm always inclusive and reply to everyone but occasionally a conversation with a friend will develop and often that takes a thread in a new direction and we all learn something from it and have a laugh and old friends are introduced to new friends expanding our experience for the better.... " Exactly there is no need to get your knickers in a twist if people get along. Ignore it if it's not your thing, but there's no point bitching about people who are friends.

Forever friends if you will who have opened me up to new ideas and ways of thinking and I'm better for that. If people don't like seeing me chat with my friends on my threads then they can choose to ignore them, and I think tbf some do but I also think that's cool. I'm always inclusive and reply to everyone but occasionally a conversation with a friend will develop and often that takes a thread in a new direction and we all learn something from it and have a laugh and old friends are introduced to new friends expanding our experience for the better.... Exactly there is no need to get your knickers in a twist if people get along. Ignore it if it's not your thing, but there's no point bitching about people who are friends. See it as a nice thing, that's what I do when I see friendships on here It's nice to see ppl getting along, aye.... Just a bit, it makes me happy " No need for the fear or jealousy or for anyone to feel sick about others being close or enjoying themselves.... ....just tap into the conversation and contribute where we can and suddenly we're ALL friends, innit.... | |||

"Yes.. a lovely group of ladies. And some others I speak to individually. Always searched for a friendship based relationships on here. Some didnt turn out to be and had hidden agenda, but that's life. Disappointments do happen, but that's why those who remain and make it easy to be around them are true gems. As for nauseating part, I do not like 'groupie' mentality, so just avoid those kind of conversations with private jokes etc. Friendly banter is good though and happy to join those I have really enjoyed chatting to you and the other ladies recently. Same! I will be more attentive once I have steady Internet connection again I haven’t been on our little group for a while... work has been crazy! But I haven’t forgotten about you all x this shall pass! And this is why I need our little group!! x" .... damn you two, you got me soft side showing..... briefly | |||

I often turn to that group for advice / a rant / a cry first before my family and closest friends! | |||

"I’ve made some really lovely friends on here, who supported me when I really needed it. I’ve also made some really special close friendships, and one who I consider one of my best friends as well as everything else he is to me . Like all walks of life you will come across problems in friendships, but I think everyone comes into your life for a reason and you learn from it. Hippy you are awesome as, always so positive it's lovely " Thank you lovely. What a gorgeous thread to read | |||

"I would be happy to make more friends among the Fab community. The issue I have is that I am a chatty person once I know someone but I find it difficult to start a new interaction. " Try messaging if a thread interests you, this is how I found some of my friends. Some threads move too fast to establish connection | |||

"I always hold myself one step back from really being friends with people, there are lots here I feel I could be good friends with, but feel I lack the energy to be a good enough friend This for me too if i’m honest. I just don’t have the emotional energy to take the time to get to know someone. When i come on here, this is my “me time“." This is totally understandable also | |||

"Made a few friends I chat with regular and they aren't forum users either" Friendship is friendship I have both and they are both equal in value | |||

"To be honest, not really. Not yet anyway. Totally open to it, but it just hasn’t happened just yet. I have good friends who are on here, but I didn’t meet them here. I find not getting notifications on the phone can be annoying for that as it stifles conversation. " Yes it does make things awkward I would agree with you | |||

"I'm not the type of person who can call someone I've had a few online conversations with a friend, so I'd say I've mainly made acquaintances ...some more fleeting than others. They're almost exclusively male, I think I must be a tad too forthright and blunt for some of the ladies on here, although I definitely feel that some of that is purely to do with some of my friendships and not actually anything to do with me as a person. Saying that, I have made a handful of friends, proper friends who have earnt my trust...including someone who I talk to every single day and I would class as one of my best friends." I definitely don’t see you as blunt or forthright | |||

Yeah I understand your viewpoint. And I can be a bit direct on times too. But again with friendship quality is far superior to quantity I believe | |||

I first joined 13 years ago and honestly can't imagine what my life would be without the people I've met from here in it!

I disagree with friends all the time but talk the disagreement through or find a middle ground and agree to disagree and *that* is the sign of a strong and true friendship when you can disagree and yet the bond remains intact. | |||
