"Very different from a couple but we'd still meet with fwb
V x"I've had a couple of couples whom I met regularly or tired too. One in Edinburgh and one couple in Ayrshire. They were 'friends with benefits' but It was hard to be available when they were but I had some amazing, fantastic times which will always live with me and to this day they are still considered friends and always will be even though we don't play anymore | |||

"Yeah there is How can you say to anyone on here, you wanna date or be a couple, theres a lot goes into it, both have to be in the same mindset etc... Do we stop swinging or do we swing and or do we swing separately and do you trust anyone on here to be a couple with you. So first would always be friends with benefits unless you just wanted a one off fuck or didn't want to take it any further | |||

Then they might become a couple. Wheres the grey area. ?"first of all, lots of people don't want to be a coupe, on here or have a friend with benefits cause a lot don't wanna meet and some just want to have a fuck and move on. Whatever way the Op wanted this conveyed. For me meeting someone on here, I wouldn't be a couple, well not before I got to know them a lot more so even then friends with benefits would come first. Also when Op says couple does she mean a swinging couple or a couple in a relationship outwith swinging ? Makes it easier to answer but for me, on here only, it would be friends with benefits before a couple if I was any of those so way inclined. | |||

"The Ops question is simple is a couple different from a fwb Whether they swing or live in a big house together or meet as singles or whatever, theres still no grey area. Yes they are totally different. | |||

A Fab "couple" is in most cases, either FWB or FB's using the term to further their quest to meet other couples.
Simple really  | |||

"As a couple we prefer to swing with other ‘real’ couples ie not ones that have been created on Fab purely to access all areas. We don’t mind meeting Fwb at all however we don’t like finding out that the only reason they set up a couples profile is to get a chance to meet other couples who ordinarily wouldn’t be interested in the single guy/girl. Some Fwb on fab are very seldom together socially and there are so many that the guy is the only one available for Meets/fun : for me that makes him a single guy and not on my radar but as a ‘couple’ they would be so I would feel tricked into a meet if there was little chance of ever actually meeting both of them together x" I have had couple profiles with guys that I consider to be close friends and I’ve played with for a while. People who didn’t know us have at times thought we were a couple. It’s not the same as coupling up just to get into a club. | |||

We all have our own opinion on what defines a “couple”.
You don’t have to be in a relationship to be a “fab couple”.
Two people who have a couples profile who want to meet like minded people either socially or for fun are a “couple” "Those that know me know my feelings on this. Each to their own though, but I won't "pair up" with someone just to get meets. R | |||

We would most certainly meet and play if the chemistry was there. My only bee in my bonnet was describing themselves as a couple. I have been to clubs with female friends when Mrs She D was working etc and we would have played with a couple if the oppertunity had arisen. But that still doesn't make us a couple . Just 2 friends teaming up to give us other options on top of our singles options. Im not knocking teaming up at all.
I actually think its a good idea for singles to team up. | |||
