Many profiles that you stalk in or out of the forums but just don't have the balls to message as you think there either out of your league or you just fear the rejection?

I'm a culprit of this with a few. Should we bite the bullet and just do it? What we got to lose?

Forum people I tend to only message in relation to threads, mainly because I'll eventually, hopefully, meet in person at socials. I've stopped messaging randoms, unless there's something extremely interesting in the profile or a status update.

Don’t fear their rejection although it’s easier said than done. Put yourself out there and say ‘Hi’. If you’re an emoji person or a ‘lol’ person put them in there too. If you’re not matched then enjoy better times with someone more matched to you. Sex, friendships, situationships can be great but even greater with someone who is on your level. That person you’re questioning might be as dull as dishwater.

I don't think you either have to worry about being out of their league or getting rejected. Just go for it and as you are truly gorgeous and it would be a fool who turns you down.

I used to be like that. Thought those things like what will they see in me and I wouldn’t be good enough. But I’ve been very surprised over the last few years and people I thought “was out my league” although there’s no such thing as leagues it’s down to each other’s preferences. So now I will message if I like the profile and if you get knocked back that’s fine at least you know. Just go for it and message who you fancy. At least that way you will know and not be constantly wondering. Why waste time thinking do they don’t they like me. Message and find out!

There are some profiles out there. But we rarely message because of a lack of free time/opportunity and not into endless back and forth messaging without meeting in real life, if that makes sense? We tend to leave things to the clubs and obviously if we were in the same place at the same time we'd go say hello in person and see where it goes.

It means you are not for them. It doesn't mean you're not good enough. I no longer have the energy to reply to all of my messages. It doesn't mean those who messaged are less than - it means they're not for me. That's all.

They're the ones that go in my hotlist until i got the balls to message. 99% of the time ends up with a read/delete. If it's read but not deleted i live in hope for a few days.....

I don’t believe anyone is out of anyone’s league on Fabswingers, otherwise we wouldn’t all be on here!

There’s something for everyone on here, and yes it’s always good to talk and say hello if you take a liking to someone. Yes we can be shy and nervous but shouldn’t be afraid of rejection (no one is that special or better than anyone on here), and I believe what’s meant to be will be.

Some are simply here not to play but make friends, others are purely here to have fun and have sex, so no need to be shy (worst case scenario they can say no).

Nothing ventured nothing gained!

We are definitely guilty of this. Our dynamic seems to be quite niche (even for Fab) so we tend to convince ourselves either:

1) they wouldn't be interested

2) they'd not believe us

3) were not hot enough/good enough shape.

This is a good point. We've been reluctant to message some of the ladies who regularly appear in Hot Pics, as let's face it, of the thousands of messages, fabs and winks they receive... Why would we stand out? We have messaged a couple over the years and chatted, but not sure our attraction to them is mutual.
