FabSwingers.com forum: Is this a dating app?

By (user no longer on site) OP

Being single and looking to date again I'm looking for someone I'd like in the traditional dating sense but who is "open-minded" sexually.

The plethora of Tinder/Match type apps are okay for vanillaville but I always find the subject of swinging to he polarising and "a bridge too far" for many in vanillaville.

Here however, the swinging question is answered but I think of it more of a hook up site.

Have you ever found someone on Fab and gone on to become a couple or have an LTR?

I'd love to hear how that started and evolved.

Lots of people have met their partners here, including me.

I wasn't looking for more, but it just happened. We've been together 9 years in November.

I think many are open to more and here is as good a place as anywhere IMHO.

Good luck op.

What's more important to you...finding someone you can enjoy dating and getting to know or finding someone who will swing with you...however that looks?

It happens.

Many people date from Fab. Many form relationships. Some have gone on to get married.

The site membership is made up from the general population. Why shouldn't people find someone here the same way they do offline?

I've always been told by some men on here that I'm in the wrong place to be looking for anything more than sex. I don't see the problem in finding a relationship out of being here, just seems to be more that just want casual sex

I'm not sure I have to make a choice. Getting what you want in life is about deciding what you'd like to have and then finding it.

The question was more as to whether this was the right place to look.

That was my (very limited) experience about Fab.

In my experience, it has been entirely possible to find a long term relationship through fab. However, not while actively seeking such. It's just something that can develop.

Go with the flow and who knows.

To have expectation though could be a challenge.

Enjoy.

We met as two singles at a swinging club, we weren't looking for a relationship and never in a million years did we think that we would find someone there but it makes our relationship 10 times better x

When we realise we can't always get what we want, sometimes we need to adjust our expectations

Yes. I had a LTR with someone I met here. Neither of us were looking for it, having developed organically over time.

Was mostly wonderful while it lasted.

That's my thoughts too. I'm not convinced I want a LTR but I like meeting new people and sometimes "it" just happens. But I'd rather that if it were to ever happen, that swinging would be part of it.

Getting very deep... And not really the point of the post.

Others (on this thread even) have achieved what i think I want so it's no longer a question of whether it's possible in my mind.

Met my partner on here, she became the luckiest women in the Midlands, the night she pounced on me at a social event 🤣🤣

I think it's social media.

Social media can lead to many things: sex, relationships, flame wars, radicalisation, education.

Exactly this. Loads of people, like myself when I was looking for it, are open to relationships happening, just so many guys that treat the site the wrong way

Indeed. Fortunately "no relationships" and people insisting has a simple solution - scorched earth blocking

It's how we met. We knew sex was a big part of our relationship and having an open lifestyle. We knew we were compatible in the bedroom so it was fun going back to the basics like core values and we just worked!

Obviously it's not easy and you both have to be open to the idea of relationships!

It's not a dating app, no... but you can find people on here when you least expect it, not actively looking for it.

Be open to it, have open communication and hopefully things fall in to place for you OP.

I met my fiancé thanks to this delightful site. And a person. It happens.

We met on here but we weren’t looking for it and trying to use it as a dating app.

Sex is one of the main things you need to be compatible with and it’s usually one of the later things you do or talk about in vanilla world.

On here, whilst you are still building a connection with someone, sex usually happens quicker and conversations surrounding sex do too, so you can establish quickly whether there is compatibility.

Another thing is that you can discuss your kinks openly on here - in vanilla world you may be can’t.

So I personally think this is a great place to meet a long term partner as you can talk openly about everything.
