"A.Have you tried being yourself? B.Its not ghosting, just because you get into a conversation doesn't mean it's gonna lead anywhere. C. See above, action doesn't have to follow the talking D. Have you considered penis? Guaranteed action." Penis is not my thing. As I said Im always my self, I do take note what is said on there profiles and have that as a starting point. Im not into " hello hows things" I like conversations not chit chit. Someone saying if English is my second language nope im 100% English. I don't send dick picks, yes I have them on my profile but more of face n bodie photos. | |||

" I play nice guy, bad boy and gentlemen. " Why are you playing different parts? Be you. Women aren't one homogeneous group, we all have our own individual characters and want different things. However, we do see through play acting pretty quickly in most cases. Don't just rely on Fab, get out to clubs and socials. | |||

"I've come to the conclusion I don't understand woman. I play nice guy, bad boy and gentlemen." · OP, my dear esteemed chappie, you are wasting your time and eroding the very fabric of your life trying to make sense of women. As Øscar W¹lde once said - "Women are meant to be loved, not understood". These arcane creatures that we give so much to and receive very little in return will be the death of us. Just find a few and bonk them without affection or feelings. | |||

"I've come to the conclusion I don't understand woman. I play nice guy, bad boy and gentlemen. Conversations start well. Then ghost. Or is this what most people on fab do. All talk no action. " Stopping talking to you isn’t ghosting. At that point you’re just chatting. People change their minds. That’s why chatting for longer helps you get to know people a bit better to see if you do actually click so that hopefully any socials or meets go well. When someone stops chatting it’s because they don’t want to take the comms any further. | |||

"I recognise your frustration and that you say you aren't playing a role. Or perhaps you are just trying different things? Apart from the obvious answer of 'supply and command' sorry I can't resist a Rickyism. I can only give my own experience. I believe (and I have been told so) that women appreciate talking to me as I don't have the misconception that many men have that because it's a swinging site women are just looking for a fuck. The issue I have is that it's rare I find someone I feel a significant attraction to and it can take time. What I can say is most women take this well, or even find it amusing.

Getting frustrated is fine, but taking it out on fab or the people you are hoping to ya know have sex with, won't change shit. I've never known someone to change their mind because of that. If you can't change the world, you have to adjust your expectations of it. You say you don't understand women, maybe that's where you should start, by listening to them? " The only review I have you will see i listen to women. Maybe my typing/texting is my floor. Maybe im better off just doing face to face or video calls. | |||

"I was on here for a long time before leaving and now joining back again, I'm a sucker for punishment!! I've tried to be myself but that's not worked very well, I only had a handful of meets on my previous profile, I found clubs were better for making friends. maybe I'm just not that appealing to most outside of clubs, and that's just the way it is. you can't change who you are or how others see you, and as others have said, you won't be everyone's taste. plus as single guys, you are 1 in God knows how many so you need to be different from the rest.. which I am obviously not very good at myself "Maybe thats the way forward going to the clubs. | |||

"I've come to the conclusion I don't understand woman. I play nice guy, bad boy and gentlemen. Conversations start well. Then ghost. Or is this what most people on fab do. All talk no action. " Your words point to the problem in my opinion. First off, women aren't a homogeonised mass to be understood, they are individuals that differ. 'Most people on fab' are just people, they're no different to any other people, so don't treat them differently from those in normal life. To us, dick pics on a public profile demonstrates a disregard for basic consent, perhaps those women that have 'ghosted' you came to the conclusion they couldn't trust you. As others have said, don't 'play' anything, just be yourself. K. | |||
