Decided to delete message and no more will be said, however was tempted to message back referring to his real name , but decided that would be cruel as the site should be based on discretion

The people that matter to us are our parents and children and I certainly won't want them to know about fab

Saw a girl from here in the street, but cause I was in male mode, didn't say anything.

Plus it is rude to just randomly approach people you don't know and mention a Swingers site. After all you might not be correct in the recognition.

We did chat via PVT about it a little though.

I've been approached a few times in public by people who recognise features or my height, I normally just "bluff" my way out of it. Easy to do when you're hiding behind a wig and makeup normally.

We've seen people we know on here. We've also had friends joining because they knew we were on here to do their nosey.

As we've gotten to know people we have found how small a place fab really is. We've got loads of mutual friends with people on here and our kids are even in the same class at school as others fabbers kids lol. Small world

We told most of our friends we were on here to begin with but it was a bit of a mistake. People started staying away from us incase we 'groomed' them into bed with us

that was what one friend actually told us why they hadn't been down for drinks alot lately

I was on for a few years with my ex partner and we received a few messages from people we recognised. The closest we got was an old classmate from school and his partner emailed after joining the site with pics attached. We agreed it was only fair to send pics back, let them know who we were and also advised they took down the public profile face pics lol

Never met for anything other than nights out. Still have them on Facebook

Should it really matter?

As has been said before, we are all here for the same reason

If a colleague or neighbour sees or recognises you there is no need to feel obliged to playing with them. Just about courtesy and discretion really

We've seen a few people we've seen on here or at CJ's out and about but would never approach anyone after all its all about discretion.

We did however have some of our pics fabbed by a guy I (mr) went to school with. He got a really hard time at school being bullied etc (not by me I might add, he lived round the corner from me was a decent guy) and one of the main reasons he got bullied was cos he always refused to get changed in front of others after PE (I know right who cares, kids) for the life of me I now cannot work out why, judging by the pics on his profile he had absolutely nothing to hide if you get our drift lol

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! cue the crying and the nose snot!

Not sure the severed hand is necessary!

Honestly I'm mobile most of the time and rarely in one building more than 2 nights in a row... I'd probably be harder than a oak tree trunk in no time if a lassie from fab walked up and propositioned me at work

Sorry but I'm a manwhore for women in satin blouses.

First week one here whilst browsing profiles I came across a couples profile,thought to myself I recognise that girl in the picture, clicked on the profile and it was a couple that use the same gym as me at the same time slot lol didn't realise back then that I would show up on the who's looked at me section lol was a bit awkward to begin with but we had a good laugh about it, strangely enough though they don't use the gym anymore lol

I have been spotted quite a few times. And then they message me on this and say they have seen me, I have also been approached or my name shouted over on the street... I'm not exactly bothered by it but I will admit I don't really appreciate it that much either.

If I recognise anyone from the scene in person I tend to just walk past them and blank them. Not sit and converse unless they are actually a friend of mine.

I was getting a good chat going last week,got to the stage to swap face pics,which I duly obliged to as we agreed a swap and was instantly blocked.

Either she knew me,or I'm fugly,suppose ill ever know.

I would rather someone said though,if someone sent me a face pic that I recognised and I wasn't comfortable,I like to think I would say so,as discretion is the most important thing,it would be a well kept secret.
