another way to chat.

So you're chatting to that hottie who gives you flutters/a semi. It's going well. You're intrigued, they're humouring you.

When do you move the chat elsewhere? Do you wait until they suggest it? Are you happy to keep it on here 'til meeting?

Entirely depends on the person again. Some people I can feel the trust easily.

Others there may be a connection but the trust is still being earned.

I have kik and telegram, for trust with those that don't want to share numbers. Only those I really trust get my actual number.

I think after my first wuu2 & 300 cock pics message - the lady has earned my undivided attention… well undivided between her and the 25 others Ive told that they’re the only one im talking to and we should move it to cam sex and private whatsapp Messaging straight away … followed by sex in the back of my Smart car…the next day. No point rushing it is there?

I agree it depends on the person. Was chatting with a guy here yesterday, it was going well and we'd agreed to a social.

He asked for my kik and as soon as he messaged me there he was asking for pics. Instant no from me, so that was me out.

One reason why I prefer using kik to WhatsApp!

I usually propose it when I feel the moment is right, although on occasion I have been asked myself.

The worst is when you've barely exchanged two messages and they start asking for your phone number.

Depends on the person, using Fab messaging for someone who's inbox gets hundreds of messages can delay a vibrant conversation. Happy to use Kik or Telegram. Very select few I added to WhatsApp. But, only people I have met, or intend to meet.

Every conversation if different but I feel you can sense quickly if you're going to move to WhatsApp or suchlike.

Sometimes I suggest it and sometimes they suggest it.

A couple of times I've been told that they want to keep chat on here and I totally respect that.

Everyone is different and you don't know about any negative experiences they have had previously.

We're the same these days. We tend to meet at clubs so if after plenty of chat someone decides somethings come up and they're not attending as expected the it's no biggie.

When we were doing more varied meets it would depend entirely on the people involved. Some we could safely assume were 100% genuine based on them being verified by people we already knew, or on the basis of them being long standing members with easily checkable histories, so no need to check if actually female or a couple - no concerns about single guys pretending to be single guys.

We never did huge journeys or splashed out on hotels to meet people for the first time so weren't concerned about no shows to the extent some are on Fab and we never once had our 'time wasted'or were stood up.

This is an extension to our lives and not a huge part of it or something we need to do. We've made some good friends on here who do have our numbers and are friends on vanilla social media, but for the majority there's no need to move any conversations off the site. Keeping them here simplifies things and keeps things separate for normal life and all the texts, notifications, emails and calls we have to deal with day to day from family, friends and work.

I only suggest it when we’re meeting up. At that point, it’s kind of essential. I don’t want to be fumbling around on Fab while I’m walking the streets or looking for you in a crowded bar.

But if that friend who’s giving me butterflies suggests it herself - moving to WhatsApp, Telegram, smoke signals, or a complex arrangement of hobo signs on suburban gateposts - I’m game anytime. Whatever works best for you. Sorry, her. Forgot I was talking in the abstract there.

Depends really. If I'm planning to go offline for a while (could be hours, could be weeks or months) then I'll send my telegram name and hope for the best. If it is someone I've been chatting to for ages then I'll add WhatsApp as well.

If we are having a particularly entertaining/in depth discussion, or I'm just really enjoying chatting, I'll just ask. I don't like messaging on here really, mainly because I don't like opening the inbox just in case I left filters open after a game (like the 'my mate fancies you' thread last night... oops).

If the other person doesn't want to move elsewhere that's cool, but it does make it easier for me.

I dint like chatting on here, you can’t send voice notes or photos/videos easily , you can’t share Spotify , it’s just a really limited experience.

So I move to WhatsApp as soon as I think it’s someone I’d potentially like to meet.

In my experience , people who don’t chat on what’s app are much more likely to be flaky and not meet anyway so it’s a good test to get out the way early

The problem with WhatsApp is it is your number they have. If things go tits up and they are a bad egg, they can cause quite a bit of potential chaos. Both men and women can be very vindictive.

KiK or telegram less so since it is a separate account without giving your number away.

Once we’ve exchanged a few messages we move the chat onto Telegram to ramp up the flirting.

Too difficult to have a 3 way conversation on here and it also shows their commitment to actually wanting to meet us. If they don’t already have telegram and they download it then it shows a willingness to engage in conversation.

We chat to people first to see if they are on our wavelength and also filter through any red flags.

I can understand why sine people who have had a particularly bad experience would he nervous about giving out their number.

Personally it’s non negotiable- I wouldn’t ever get in my car to go meet someone who wont disclose a contact number. Big red flag.

Luckily, most people aren’t concerned though and much more concerned about messages and photos ending up on the internet on some disclosure sites or worse - it’s simply not possible with WhatsApp

Exactly! All the other stuff, memes, funny vids, pics, voice notes etc I like to share with those I get on with.

Number can go to dark levels of stalker, that a simple block won't fix. Obviously can change your number but that means updating lots of accounts etc. So much effort that could be avoided.

When do you move the chat elsewhere? Do you wait until they suggest it? Are you happy to keep it on here 'til meeting?

The chat on here works just as well as any other system. We keep the chat on here.

Telegram is my defacto and then over to WhatsApp if I want to share numbers or converse on the phone.

With that said, I'm happy to remain on the Fab messaging system.

I've had instances where we've reverted back to Fab because we both missed the missives and romanticised epistles that brought us much joy."

Ah I've done this before! It's rather lovely isn't it? Hot. I quite like the odd flirty message on here as a reply to a post even though I might talk elsewhere with them.

Depends on the person, how long we have been chatting etc, as to how quick we exchange numbers as I prefer WhatsApp for communication x

Me too! I don’t know why but messaging through Fab holds an unexplainable mystique aura about it. I often get “you know we’re on telegram, right?”

I owe you a letter. An Aerogramme, in fact.

(Those of you who are old enough will know what an Aerogramme is...was).

"Very rarely. I learned from mistakes early on having switched to KiK with someone I was messaging with.

They became a different person (or maybe their true self) as soon as it went private. Made me wise up very quickly."

I like doing this, the slow fade happens much more quickly off fab

I find Kik absolutely unbearable. All the adverts, attention grabbing, and spam. And I find Snapchat a bit awkward. WhatsApp I’m okay with. Telegram is just about alright.

In comparison, Fab is pleasantly old-fashioned. Like a comfortable pair of slippers.

I actually prefer to just keep the chat on fab. My phone is overloaded with messages and I don’t want to add more.

On fab I like that I can go in and answer messages when I get round to it.

There's a bit more urgency on other platforms and an obligation to reply quickly. And since I still haven't replied to my own sister on other platforms since the weekend tells you I'm a bit crap at that.

"another way to chat.

So you're chatting to that hottie who gives you flutters/a semi. It's going well. You're intrigued, they're humouring you.

When do you move the chat elsewhere? Do you wait until they suggest it? Are you happy to keep it on here 'til meeting?

I do move pretty quickly. (too many funerals to attend including my own) Might be a London thing. I usually suggest a meeting quite quickly to gauge the level of interest. With in a week or two of messaging on Fab. I don't trust my flutter until I've met in person because my brain like to turn me off in real life those people that I fancy online.

Also I do not want to spend ages talking to someone if we have no chemistry and no common interest. That's like talking to a wall and I've got 4 at home.

I access Fab fairly easily on my phone but I can use telegram or kik if I could remember my kik password. Lol!

As they say time waits for no man...or woman....I'm definitely not on Fab to find a life partner. All my previous life partnerships have been dastardly unpleasant. I'm 9 years flying solo and 7 years poly and I'm not keen to give any of that up in the near future.

Plus I tend to scare most men off anyway.

I keep it here.

The only other place I could move it (text) would require my number and that’s a long way down the road.
