Plan B

I have seen advice to others to have a plan B or backup in place when arranging a meet. Then if plan A is a no go, plan B steps up.

.

Sounds good advice BUT how would you respond if someone agreed to meet you but told you that you were the backup in case of a no show. Would you agree to be the plan B?

Lord no, I’d rather they told me they didn’t want to meet me than kept as a “back up”

No I wouldn't like that at all. And I think for me a plan B would be a pampering day or going out somewhere, I wouldn't treat anyone as a plan B if I had a meet and it fell through.

Oh I'd never do that. I don't need someone's life to revolve around me but at the same time I'm nobody's back-up plan.

Likewise if I suspect a plan B will be needed then I wouldn't carry on with plan A.

It would depend at what stage my cock was during the erection process. If it was at full bonk on then I would just continue with the meet

No as I said on another thread I was suspicious with one guy that I was his plan b and he went quiet leading up to the meet and I cancelled it the night before. He then contacted me an hour after we were meant to meet asking was I still up for meeting and I asked did his other meet not turn up he admitted he was ghosted. I didn't meet him.

I've no interest in being plan b for anyone they either want to meet me or they don't. But I won't be a back up option for anyone .

That advice is usually given to single women and sometimes couples, not often to single men who are quite often the back up

Have to be honest some of my best hook ups have been a plan B. They weren’t set up that way just happened when plan A went awry.

The best was I had arranged to meet I drove the 25 miles and then the dreaded radio silence. I was pissed off so went back on fab, within 10 mins found a couple local to where I was. They invited me round had a great time and went back on a regular basis until COVID. Not seen them back since.

My plan B’s are always go to a club/sauna/bar and see what develops. They don’t include having a second person sitting, waiting for a phone call if ‘Plan A ‘ falls through

A plan B should be based on location/situation not people eg have an alternative activity not treat someone as a back up.

If I had even the slightest inkling I was a Plan B, I’d tell them to ram it. I’m no one’s Plan B.

The only back up I would have for a meet is to do something for myself ie a day out somewhere or pop to see family/friends (if they’re the kind with whom I can just pop round for a cuppa).

I did have a situation where I'd been messaging someone for a while. I went for a social with someone else, got stood up, got a message from the first bloke saying he was thinking about me as he was in my area and during our chat I told him what had happened.

Turned out he was sitting outside the same coffee shop that I was in. He came in, we had a great laugh and have met up a few times since.

I think it's a bit different when you've arranged someone as a plan B. It feels colder to me somehow.

Mmm.

I don’t know. Depends who, what mood I’m in, what would we be doing etc…

Maybe, but probably not. I’d hate to think I wasn’t their first option.

And here’s the catch, I’d rather not be told, but if I found out later, that they didn’t tell me, that’s worse.

I never have a Plan B.

I give my full undivided attention to Plan A exclusively when it comes to meets.

I don't treat others as second best or an afterthought, and nor do I wish to be treated so.

In all my time on Fab I've never been in a situation where I was left feeling that I should have had some form of backup.

If I suggest someone have a plan B, I mean that they should have something else planned to fill their time not someone else.

That could be, go to the pub, go shopping, watch TV etc.

I would never agree that people should have a person set up as a Plan B, unless that person is well aware and agrees to be a Plan B, such as when your friends say that if he/she bails comes round and we can do something.

It's not something I would do.

I get why couples and women pursue a number of possibilities for a meet because of how flakey people can be. Yeah, it doesn’t feel great to be a plan B but it feels worse to be ghosted at the last minute, especially if you’re making arrangements / sacrifices to be able to attend this ‘meet’.

But the fucking cheek of it when they contact you four weeks later for a meet and ask you to pay for a hotel in their area

Not a plan B as such but we usually have the whole weekend in a hotel with a social meet on both days which could lead into a potential meets in the night time if things go well for all and everyone is happy.

I’ve never had a plan B. If something happened that meant we could no longer meet I’d just do something else with my time instead.

If I found out I was their second choice and they only wanted to meet me because they got let down I’d be pissed off. That’s such an insult.

Same here although I only spent 8 months being the second choice

This would apply if I was single of course, but if I was attracted to then I'd just go for it and try and make her experience so good that she'll make me no. 1 choice next time.

I'm not going to be first choice for many. I don't take that as an insult if she would actually enjoy getting together with me. If she made me feel like shit about it I we probably wouldn't have got that far anyway. Luke

I suspect I’ve been Plan B before now but either half called it and cancelled when I get bad vibes or accepted a crap excuse for a late cancellation.

Having a back up / side dick isn’t really my style. If I’ve arranged a meet and it’s cancelled I just find something else to do rather than someone else

We have to have a backup plan, we pay good money for our hotels, babysitter etc, we don't have much time so its precious to us, if someone can't make it for a reason it's going to be bad news and a wasted weekend that's why we try and get more than one meet at a weekend.

Nobody is asked to meet and doesn't get a meet, it's just we have two chances of meeting on the same weekend, so the odds of being let down by both is pretty slim.

That being said, there's one person I wouldn't mind too much if they got in touch and said "oh my plans fell through, fancy a fuck?".
