"I did post this on the advice section but was thinking more people might see this so mod feel free to remove. Hey I thought I'd make a thread with some thoughts I’m having and was hoping anyone that’s been on here a while and has had success can offer some advice too. I’m feeling a bit discouraged and disheartened today about my chances of having any success at fab. I feel like on the forum people enjoy my threads as I’ve opened up about my struggles with anorexia and binge-drinking and other issues I’ve faced and my positivety , but, on fab generally, I don’t feel I’m attractive enough to have success. I think I could improve my photos and going do to try and do that over the weekend. I’ve seen a lot of advice to have a few shirt less, but I don’t think those look the best right now due to struggling with an eating disorder. I lost muscle , but one of my goals this year to build muscle again. I’ve found it really difficult so far to make my profile show the best version of myself, but I feel it’s better now if anyone has any honest opinions on it ? I’d appreciate it. I’ll probably get some negative comments on this thread that it’s impossible as a single guy, but I don’t have that belief that anything is impossible in life and I think if you put maximum effort and hard work into something you’ll achieve it. I’m extremely determined to have some success on fab and get into the lifestyle even if it takes a lot of time. I would appreciate it if any ladies could look at my photos and tell me your honest opinion on the thread or privately if I look unattractive or not. I just wanted to make this thread as it’s better to show how you’re feeling instead of keeping it inside. If anyone else is finding it difficult to succeed on here, I wish you luck and hope you succeed. HAVE A FANTASTIC AND WONDERFUL WEEKEND EVERYONE ON THE FORUM " Well you seem like quite a nice person when you’re posting on the forums and your profile pic is clear and not a dick pic. Anything other than I can’t say cos you have me blocked for some reason | |||

"I think your profile is quite good - I find my own is one that evolves over time, and you might find the same. Add photos, add text, that sort of thing. But you've kept it positive. Age is probably your main limitation, that and the fact that guys do find it hard in general. But it's not insurmountable. You're not unattractive. I wouldn't put my self esteem on Fab - people are fickle and sometimes thoughtlessly cruel (or just thoughtless). What you get out of Fab in terms of general feedback is not so much "am I good enough" but often more like "do I scratch this other person's itch in this moment". (There are exceptions to this, but what I've described is probably a reasonable starting point). If you're struggling with mental health and associated stuff, Fab can be brutal (isn't always, can be) - be aware it can be a trigger and be prepared to step away when you're feeling a bit fragile. " Pretty much exactly what i would have written. | |||

"Thanks for all the comments so far. If anyone would like to hear what my opinion is on success here, it’s not at all about just having loads of one-night stands. I believe in building a connection with people here and in the lifestyle in general. For me, it’s about having conversations with people and making friends, and I know that’s not easy either." Socials can be a good foundation for friendships. | |||

I do hope to get to a social soon but last one I looked at in London had no spaces for single guy’s left | |||

HAVE A FANTASTIC AND WONDERFUL WEEKEND EVERYONE ON THE FORUM " Hi, I think your amazing and are so brave to share this much information about yourself. Please treat yourself kindly and maybe look for a real therapist to help with all the other issues that are impacting right now. FAB is not a real place, its an escapism for a lot of people, unfortunately there are some that are not as kind. Don't use it as a therapy room or you may find it hits hard on your self esteem and mental health. Create what you think you would like to see, be who you are. A great way of getting others to like us is to like ourselves, that can be a journey on its own. You have a lot of advise on here - your age probably is against you. Go to socials, enjoy and have fun on the forums and keep yourself safe. Don't try to hard, and the rejections do hurt, but they dont know you remember that and dont take them too personally. AND if you need someone ever to message - my inbox is always open and i will happily listen. Enjoy fabbing xxxx | |||

"3 veris in 7 months ... am I missing something here ? How many meets are you expecting? only the first one was an actual meet.

Keep leaning that way to do counselling first then maybe a diploma in DBT or CBT and clinical after. Ask your gp for self help in the mean time. I am not qualified yet. Waiting lists prefer Santa's Fab is whatever you decide it to be.May take ages to find folk you want to meet. Life is about finding right people right connections and honesty.All hard work here.

"Thanks to anyone that has commented on this thread. Even though I asked for advice on here in some ways it was about opening up about how I was feeling. " please do remember that this is not a therapy room and people do not have a duty of anything to you. This can just a quickly backfire on you. Stay safe. Even in the most controlled groups with qualified facilitators they advise you to only share what you can deal with and can keep safe. I wish you all the best with this, take it for what it is and with a huge pinch of salt. You should see the abusive message when when I say no thanks to someone. Just be careful. | |||

I totally get that this is not a therapy room and if anyone has criticism of me at all for being honest, it doesn’t bother me. I’m proud of the struggles I’ve got through in life. The great thing about fab is that anyone that sees this and decides they don't want to chat or meet me because of my issues, there are tons of other people they can chat and meet with. | |||

I’ve seen a lot of advice to have a few shirt less, but I don’t think those look the best right now due to struggling with an eating disorder. I lost muscle , but one of my goals this year to build muscle again. I’ve found it really difficult so far to make my profile show the best version of myself, but I feel it’s better now if anyone has any honest opinions on it ? I’d appreciate it. I’ll probably get some negative comments on this thread that it’s impossible as a single guy, but I don’t have that belief that anything is impossible in life and I think if you put maximum effort and hard work into something you’ll achieve it. I’m extremely determined to have some success on fab and get into the lifestyle even if it takes a lot of time. I would appreciate it if any ladies could look at my photos and tell me your honest opinion on the thread or privately if I look unattractive or not. I just wanted to make this thread as it’s better to show how you’re feeling instead of keeping it inside. If anyone else is finding it difficult to succeed on here, I wish you luck and hope you succeed. HAVE A FANTASTIC AND WONDERFUL WEEKEND EVERYONE ON THE FORUM " Meh, don’t try so hard. Chill. Ultimately it’s a numbers game. But half the battle is being passively not interested. Sometimes you try really hard for something and it doesn’t come your way. You just relax a bit and you’re on your way. Also, throw in a bit of ‘fuckitude’ Where you just go ‘fuck it’ and do it rather than over think it or over complicate it. Fuckitude gets you far in life as it opens up many doors. Fear holds a lot of people back. But when you just think ‘ahhh fuck it’ you can land yourself in places and in situations you never dreamed possible… However there is a caveat. It’s like flipping a coin. Odds are 50/50 but remember this. Logic makes you think you can flip a coin ten times and it won’t be tails every time, but there’s just as good a chance it will be in reality. Point being, sometimes you win sometimes you lose. When you lose it doesn’t matter. Fuckitude saves you as you just say fuck it and onto the next passive disinterested flip of the coin and away you go. Works in all areas of life. Not just on Fab. | |||

Dating apps are the same, as single men we are massively overpopulated, women/couples have the choice to pick and choose as they please and set themselves high standards. And there isnt anything wrong with that, the alternative is then dedicating your mindset to pleasing others which would be silly. Dont have any crazy expectations, dont spend enough time to start feeling like you're wasting it and try accept and be confident in who you are, or make the changes you need to do that. | |||

HAVE A FANTASTIC AND WONDERFUL WEEKEND EVERYONE ON THE FORUM " Also I may not be able to relate as you mentioned anorexia so you might not want to be as skinny as you are, but if you do there is absolutely zero wrong with it. My figure is one of my favorite features, I would not change a thing about myself neck down. Plenty of women have a preference for slim guys, while others will have it as a turn off. You cant suit everyone but theres certainly many who will appreciate your figure | |||
