Profile is fine but of course as you are very exact in n what you want - and you should be- your chances of finding a match are smaller.

I would recommend some photos taken outdoors on a sunny day for good light. Show yourself in a variety of clothes. Photos taken by somebody else look better to me than selfies in my opinion. Luke

Compared to some I've seen it's very specific (in a good way). Quite a few profiles say the equivalent of "looking for anything, anywhere" which is fine if that's your thing but it does give the impression that they'd be thinking "you'll do" when you turned up.

A non submissive woman would pass you by, as you’re profile quite clearly states what you’re looking for on here.

So in your general area (say 15 miles) how many submissive single women do you think are on the site ?

It’s really good to have a profile that states exactly what you’re looking for, as those looking for the same thing will be drawn to you. But if they’re miles away or don’t see your profile then you’ll be waiting for quite some time.

It’s a good profile but it needs to be seen.

It's a great profile. But the bdsm might put some women off. It doesn't interest me so I would likely pass you by. Perhaps downplay it? A note at the end that you are experienced and enjoy bdsm, but it's not essential? There are sites focused on specific tastes and maybe they are more suited to bdsm profiles, and fab is more suited for vanilla?

As mentioned the bdsm might put people off as it takes a huge amount of trust with someone and I think that would be built in time rather than on an initial first meet, so maybe don’t make it such an important part of your bio unless of course it’s a big part of your life and is what your looking for.

I think your profile is absolutely fine as it is!

If you’re into BDSM then that is your thing and it’s no problem to let others know - if they are put off by it then that’s fine!

I hate how judgmental people can get - my hubby has his own profile too and gets “advice” about things - it’s supposed to be about having fun so relax, you’re all good and do exactly what you enjoy! Good luck x

Your profile is great, but why are you looking for a submissive woman on a swinging site? Please. Take a look at the wellknown bdsm sites (that I can’t name on here) and maybe get yourself to a munch or dungeon events.

As someone else has pointed out, a D/s relationship typically goes a bit deeper than FWB often implies, but it sounds like you’re prepared for that. Good luck!

I think what he is meaning is go to a club or organised social

Can see from your status you were already planning or did go to Pleasures on Friday

If you pick the right night at a club you get to meet loads of people. Can also see you have been to Jaydees too - another real nice club with an amazing Hot tub

VA and Penthouse Playrooms are also fab and all of the above don’t have ridiculous membership fees or excessively expensive for single guys

There is a new club Monkey Business in Basildon that the owners have spent a lot of money on (and a pool too) that has a no membership charge on your first time again a reasonable price too

Not sure if there is a Kent social but there is definitely an Essex one that seems hugely popular so that’s another option

It is hard for single guys to meet on fab so getting out and about may be helpful

I don’t think there’s anything wrong at all you just might not be what people are looking for.

As a fellow single it’s tough to get any traction as lots of folks aren’t looking for singles and those that are have the pick of the bunch.

There’s also a lot of messages traffic and nonsense in peoples inboxes

Stay positive, polite and I’d suggest a follow up if your message has gone unread after 2 weeks it maybe that it has been missed.

Try attending some of the social nights that crop up they are a great way to meet and chat and get urself out there

Good luck

It's a difficult one for you to overcome and we know other guys that play alone and their wives do know, we've met the wives, but unless you can get over the first rejection hurdle, you won't even get the chance to prove that she's okay with it via a cam session or phone call.

It's one of Fab's long standing double standards. *Most* men don't care if a woman is cheating, *most* women do care if a man is cheating.

We don't have a hugely moral objection, but if a guy is married or attached then he's more likely to cancel or not show as there's another person who can suddenly throw a spanner in the works.

Your outdoor photos are an improvement as per my recommendation, but I think you should think about the setting to make the whole thing more appealing. 23 April 2022 is good. Your out in the woods. It's a really pleasant environment. There are others which are just house behind you. If they were old-fashioned cottages it would make a nice backdrop, but what you have is a bit ordinary. Try things like going to a pub beer garden or out on a footpath through fields, or maybe at a concert.

I would still recommend getting somebody else to take them. It looks much better, in my opinion.

Just my thoughts. Feel free to disagree.

Well done for being one of the very very who ask for profile feedback and actually follow some of the advice!

I can't see anything wrong with your profile either and your verifications show you are getting meets the two things I will say are

I know you've said your married and your wife's on here (I'm in the same boat my husband and I have single accounts as well as our couples acc) but lots of women won't touch him even though I'm on here to abd happy to confirm he's ok to meet

The other thing from what I've heard of the men to woman/couple ratio on this site, is for every single guy to get just one meet a year every woman would be needing to meet 3x a week, which lets face it isn't going to happen

You're getting the one meet a year so you're doing well, sadly I think it's just a case of lowering your expectations or trying clubs with and without your wife to try and increase your swinging circle

"Your outdoor photos are an improvement as per my recommendation, but I think you should think about the setting to make the whole thing more appealing. 23 April 2022 is good. Your out in the woods. It's a really pleasant environment. There are others which are just house behind you. If they were old-fashioned cottages it would make a nice backdrop, but what you have is a bit ordinary. Try things like going to a pub beer garden or out on a footpath through fields, or maybe at a concert.

I would still recommend getting somebody else to take them. It looks much better, in my opinion.

Just my thoughts. Feel free to disagree.

Well done for being one of the very very who ask for profile feedback and actually follow some of the advice! "

Thanks I need find someone to help me take some new photos of me without them getting weird about it. The 2 latest where on a balcony as I thought the sky line looked good

My verifications are misleading as they are club verifications

"So still on the journey of self improvement. I’ve added a few new pics and trying to change up my messaging strategy. Not sure if it’s an improvement or a downgrade. Again any feedback that is constructive is appreciated "

Take a look at some of the other male forumites photos, who post in the lounge. See the photo challenge threads... Yours are all very samey. Nothing particularly "fab" inspired

I like your gallery a lot more now. I would point out that "action shots" of guys with other women are often talked of as things that put women off.

I wasn’t sure about them but I also thought it made my profile more sexual without being too explicit. Happy to go with the concenus on it

The profile looks fine to me even though not for me. (I don't do halves of couples, even if they're both cool with it; and am unlikely to play with anyone who describes themselves as dom, although that is something I enjoy on occasion). But for people it suits, it looks like it will suit if you see what I mean. The only thing that jumped out to me was that the username doesn't seem very consistent with the nature of the profile? It made it slightly difficult to imagine what you'd be like in real life. Most people with trades as usernames have more work van / hi viz / gym type pictures. Or at least the ones who have messaged me do.

I must have missed that I’m single now so will have double check i thought I removed the mentions of a partner.

im not a proper builder(i work for a building company as a manager so spend more time in a suit then a hi viz) maybe a name change is in order. i do enjoy being dominant during sex but maybe i should tone it down.

Only criticism some could have, is not using your pics to showcase you fully, instead of having others shown in then.

I’d say your pics don’t match/suit what you are looking for.

Your face pics are book of face type pics - friendly guy so doesn’t really fit the BDSM style your profile says you are after.

I’m not saying it needs to be mean and moody but your pics definitely conflict with your wording so it’s like you aren’t serious about BDSM. You’ve just thrown that in to add spice to your profile.

Just my opinion when I read your profile.

You don’t need to change your face…do you look that Emily when doing a BDSM scene?

Your profile is very specific to BDSM. If you’re wanting to portray one image in words you’ve got to back it up with pics.

Can’t sell a winter holiday with pics of the sun

Sorry to hear that.

If I remember you had a couples as well as both you and her had solo profiles to play separately as well.

Hopefully it wasn't swinging or playing separately that impacted the marriage.
