I prefer them to messages! I can check the profile and wink back if I would like to chat ... simple

I usually thank people for winking at me and it's then up to them to keep the conversation going at a level I enjoy,,,

As above, I don’t like ignoring messages because I don’t want to come across as rude. With a wink, we can wink back if we like the look of the profile, if not, we just ignore it.

Whenever I wink at people in the street they look at me with disgust, so I've given up as well. Mind you they still look at me with disgust so I dunno what to tell you.

Most people on fab ignore them and I can understand why.

I've had a number of occasions where I've either winked at someone and they've winked back - or they've winked at me - and I've followed up with a message only to be completely ignored or my message deleted.

It's hard to know why someone has winked.

A message is always much better

I admit I actually don't look at winks or fabs! I'm usually in the forums chatting instead

nae danger.

I normally send a wink back then follow up with a message if there's an attraction or more to find out if there's an attraction, wich is rare as I tend not to send messages on here as see many many status updates of had to delete my inbox so gave up on the messaging front

I would say some don't see them because they have loads and some just aren't interested. I always send a message if I see a wink from someone I like the look of but sometimes they then don't message back which means them winking was pointless

I think winks are good, they show interest without being pushy. I'm still getting used to how direct most people are in the Fabiverse. It's taken pretty much the whole 4 months that we've been here for the yellow unread message not to send me into a panic. I actually almost like it because we have some lovely friends here and I can't wait to see what they've sent (still a little bit of panic though).

That said I'm rubbish with winks, we have accumulated hundreds and I can't remember who I liked the look of and who I didn't I will do a bulk delete I think and try to stay on top this time.

Sorry for the waffle.

I’m a fan of winks.

I think they can be a nice wee ice breaker.

I agree entirely. Wink back and they know you are interested and then exchange messages.

Is there a reason when women wink why they can't message instead?
