"Genuinely starting to be soul crushing on here. Take so much care to read profiles carefully but don’t get anywhere. When do get a reply just hey after all that or speak then filters out. Tried so hard to read each one and follow what is being wanted etc. Have verifications that are glowingly positive etc. As a guy it’s so frustrating. Even send face pics etc. Of course women have loads of messages so not really anyone to blame for not replying etc just speaking openly. Send about 100 messages lucky if get 1 reply. Ughh frustrating. Started to actually affect mentally. But we preserve. Anyway Happy fabbing to all. " Sorry OP but that is all basic stuff that we all should be doing anyway when sending messages. 100 messages a day ? Everyday? Fab is a tough site at the best of times. If you are not enjoying your time here, maybe its time to take a step back | |||

"You're better off finding a partner elsewhere who's open minded and then trying as a couple. Your profile states you'll only play with women, or couples in a cuck dynamic. That cuts out an awful lot of couples for a start. When it comes to single women on Fab, you're up against it. Keep an eye on the meets, chat in the forums and the cams and get along to some local socials or a club. " This. Don't take it seriously at all. | |||

"But the veri is positive so that shows that meeting me is a good not bad thing. Of a woman sees another woman write something so positive surely that says this guy is good to meet. If the connection is good why not meet then if don’t like how look can just respectfully leave or say not for eachother. Regarding the set up well I’m straight so couples of course I wouldn’t really want to sexually interact with the man side. As for the photos I don’t want to show face but I see the points of the body etc so I’ll change that- thanks so much btw . " I think it's the fact that you met someone without seeing their face first. It gives the impression that you don't really care what they look like as long as you're getting a shag, which you're totally entitled to do by the way, just wouldn't be someone i would be interested in meeting. | |||

"Yeah no for sure I just think like the very eludes to- it shows confidence. I would meet someone without seeing face and then if I don’t like can always leave. Think it takes balls and shows confidence. I’m not forced to be there could turn up and not like and go or the opposite which is what happened. It’s the connection maybe a woman is shy. If you’re getting on why not chat then if meet and don’t like can both just leave. But that’s just me. Appreciate all the input. " OP if thats the way you wanna navigate it there is nothing wrong with it you do you. The forum is a small minority so the rest of fab may not blink twice. I was just giving advice on why a proportion may be put off. I hope you get what you want from here ❤️ | |||

If it is that dispiriting I would suggest leaving. | |||

"Can I give you some advice? I'd remove the photos of other women from your profile. Most women don't like seeing "action shots" or photos of other women on single men's profiles. They are definitely for the male gaze. Seeing your cum plastered allover a stranger would do absolutely nothing for me. Women like to see photos of you that aren't genitals, fully clothed is fine and doesn't need to be your face. Your meet verification implies that you met her without even knowing what she looks like. It makes it sound like you aren't very discerning or don't care about who you are meeting. Many women will find that off putting. We don't like being seen as a hole and nothing more. Just some advice from a single woman, but feel free to ignore 👋 " Good advice. Also do the women in the pictures know he took pictures and posted them all over the internet? Thats not attractive to women who may be the next victim of this. | |||

So many guys ask ‘what I’m into?’ I reply ‘people that can read profiles’ Second mistake is 99% of the women on here are just after attention. They know they have what men want and effectively treat men like shit. Being too fucking ignorant to reply. They treat it like an adult Facebook with look how many ‘likes’ I’ve got. Thirdly the 1 % that ARE genuine probably get 50-500 messages a day. Trust me I’ve been with a woman from her that showed me DESPITE her status at the time saying ‘only friends message please as I’m really busy for a while’. Good luck though buddy and don’t let it get you down. You’ll find a much nicer class of woman in a pub or another non sexual dating site. | |||

You seem nice. 😳 I don’t reply because it allows people to get through my filters. Once you’ve replied people can send messages and they do. So no reply is seen as a reply because of the way the site works. Also, if your friend set her filters, her friends would still be able to message as I just said above. So the question is why so many women don’t set filters (some like the attention) and also why so many DO set filters. And that’s because an awful lot of people see the women on here as sexual favour dispensers rather than as human beings. | |||

I’m not sure if she knew that if she set the filters they wouldn’t get through. I’m fairly sure she was an attention seeker. I met her simply because it was 2 AM and I was close.

"It is hard on here. For women too in a different way. But to find what you are looking for . I think socials are a better way to meet people. Much less intimidating than a club because it's just a group of people meeting in a pub. They also tend to be more gender balanced so you won't be one man in 10 seeking a women's attention. If what you are doing isn't working then do something else. If this site hurts your mental health then quit it otherwise it's like being hungry in a shop full of food you can't afford." Exactly that. ❤️ | |||

But honestly this site shouldn’t even register on things that impact your “soul” or anything serious like that. Also I wouldn’t be keeping track of messages or even messaging huge numbers of people like that. It’s meant to be a laugh. Don’t let it take over your life. It could be that you’re not in a good place all-round, and maybe this site isn’t for you until you’re feeling happier and healthier. Best wishes to you man | |||

"Didn’t meant 100 a day specifically - I was unclear as in- man could send 100s a day or 10 a day and same outcome. Maybe break is needed yeah " Are the messages sex based ?We dont know what you put in your messages but obviously your approach as is isnt working maybe it is just you ,maybe you can't sustain conversation with a woman not everyone can ,i don't seem to have a problem conversing its the meeting part i fall down at ,they are blown away by my smouldering good looks and sense of style  | |||

"Maybe just accept you're not their type or they don't find you sexually attractive? I'm sure if I sent hundreds of messages hardly any would reply even. Would you shag them all if they all replied? " Saying that about 'a hundred messages' when I was on TINDER I counted 100 profiles and I actually swiped right on 4!! And not one replied | |||

You seem nice. 😳 I don’t reply because it allows people to get through my filters. Once you’ve replied people can send messages and they do. So no reply is seen as a reply because of the way the site works. Also, if your friend set her filters, her friends would still be able to message as I just said above. So the question is why so many women don’t set filters (some like the attention) and also why so many DO set filters. And that’s because an awful lot of people see the women on here as sexual favour dispensers rather than as human beings. I am nice hence being with a woman from here. I’m not sure if she knew that if she set the filters they wouldn’t get through. I’m fairly sure she was an attention seeker. I met her simply because it was 2 AM and I was close. I’m sure if she wasn’t horny at that precise time I’d have been ignored too. Your profile says your gay?" Your profile says YOU’RE gay. As in YOU ARE. Never mind that though. It says I’m gay because I wanted to meet a certain man that only allowed GAY men to contact him. If I said I was black would you believe that too??? | |||

Sorry for the autocorrect grammatical error, I'll try better next time, but you understood what I was saying. And I would think you were lying if you said you were black because your pictures are of a white person. Although given you're (YOU ARE😊) lying about your sexuality who knows. And why is it odd to believe that someone who says that they're gay is actually gay? | |||

I was thinking with my cock when I set up the account as I knew this guy wouldn’t accept messages unless it was from a gay man. It’s technically not a lie as when I’m with a man I’m totally gay. I’ve amended it though as I genuinely thought I’d already done it. Cheers. Stay safe ❤️ | |||

" Yeah we have had similar where we have been at the coast and no signal so it looks like we are online but actually not or we read a message but then can’t reply until we get signal and they take that as us ignoring them. The sane non desperate ones will naturally wait for a reply and if they don’t get one in a 24/48 hour period they know they are not for us, we normally allow the same time scale as we know life happens and not everyone can be online and reply 24/7 | |||

Most people are not mutually compatible with most other people. The better your profile and messages are, the easier it is for others to know if you're potentially right or not, for them. It's much better to not have a lack of clarity, as it prevents hopes being built and dashed unnecessarily.
Consider going to clubs and Fab socials, to get more interaction with others. And look after yourself | |||

"It's essential to preserve your mental wellbeing, so consider a rest, when you get negative impact
Most people are not mutually compatible with most other people. The better your profile and messages are, the easier it is for others to know if you're potentially right or not, for them. It's much better to not have a lack of clarity, as it prevents hopes being built and dashed unnecessarily.
Consider going to clubs and Fab socials, to get more interaction with others. And look after yourself "This 100% I often wonder how those who state that life on Fab (or other online sites) is hard, frustrating or disappointing cope in the real world interacting with others? It often seems that many think that because this is a swingers/sex site that they're chances of meeting someone here will be greater than doing the same in a pub/bar/vanilla club or in a supermarket, or at work, or in any one of dozens of other places that people meet those of the opposite sex. The truth is usually the opposite. You have to rely on your photos and the words you type in a profile to generate initial interest. You're competing with hundreds of others for the attention of the same person/people. Anything you write in a message can be ignored, deleted, never even seen, misunderstood or thought dull/interesting without you having any control over the outcome. In the real world, or even in a swingers club or at an organised social you're visible, can be seen and heard by everyone else there. There's no delay in communication. There's no debate as to how accurately you're pictures represent you. There's much, much better opportunities to show your personality and character. Of course there's still no guaranteed outcomes. But in person vs online offers significant benefits when trying to present yourself to others. If online only interactions aren't producing the desired results then there's two possibilities. You're not presenting yourself in a way that attracts and interests other people or you're doing a great job of presenting the real you 100% accurately and unfortunately people just aren't interested. 99% of people will never be compatible with eachother. That's life. The only way to improve your odds of finding the 1% that will be is to not restrict yourself to online, virtual communications. Tits ignored the first message I ever sent her. We met months later via mutual friends at a vanilla social event, became FWB's and eventually partners. I met my previous partner at a swingers social and then a club event soon after. I met my ex wife on Fab. The majority of FB's and FWB's I've had since joining here in 2008 have been via face to face contact. Not via a message on here. You can make life hard for yourself and restrict how you approach things, or you can try a multi-faceted approach and hope for different results. The choice is down to you of course, but if what you're doing isn't working then doing the same thing over and over and hoping for a different result is unlikely to change the outcome. 🤷♂️ Obihaive | |||

"Yeah no for sure I just think like the very eludes to- it shows confidence. I would meet someone without seeing face and then if I don’t like can always leave. Think it takes balls and shows confidence. I’m not forced to be there could turn up and not like and go or the opposite which is what happened. It’s the connection maybe a woman is shy. If you’re getting on why not chat then if meet and don’t like can both just leave. But that’s just me. Appreciate all the input. " I regularly meet people without exchanging face pics. Based on chat etc. I want to get on with them first and foremost so that wouldn't bother me. Definitely your profile pic now is very appealing and a few more photos in like that should help. | |||

" My point is, a club offers way more opportunities to meet people in the swinging world and that can lead to spontaneous fun that you wouldn't be exposed to using an online website. | |||

"I’m glad I’m not the only one finding this out, everyone seems to be so strict and so precise with what is required to even have a standard conversation, sometimes I understand why so many men use services " Really? You need to reset and realise women arent just a hole for your pleasure. Using sex workers is disgusting and wrong in do many ways. | |||

"When the fun stops, stops. Firstly for your own MH. But also because that kinda shit seeps through messages. As an extra observation, you say you read profiles (bare minimum imo) but I suspect you don't read between the lines. The gals have given you gold and rather than understand why they don't like action shots or your veru, you've defended it. Ofc, that's your right, but it then doesn't suprise me that you are striking out. They've told you to open your eyes while swinging and you've defended why you think keeping them closed is a good thing. Take care. ✌🏻" I agree wholeheartedly with this. OP it appears you send a lot of messages to women but you don't like to listen to them. More than one lady has said the same thing in tesponse to you and yet you're still being defensive and justifying why you think it's okay. Perhaps listen to what the ladies are saying as they are the very people you are trying to appeal to. It is really odd and not discerning that you would meet someone having never seen them. It would be a turn off to a lot of women. | |||
