Well you’ve got several veris, and it’s not for me to judge why you’ve ‘Given up’ (Status update)

But you’ve started a fairly negative thread, then 24 minutes later you’ve made a snarky comment about the lack of responses.

Bear in mind a lot of members will still be at work at 4.15 on a Friday afternoon.

I'm two years older than you.

I'm not 25.

I don't the body of a Greek God.

I don't have a 9 inch cock.

I do have 100+ meet verifications.

I did work my arse off to get them though and used every opportunity the site provides for me.

Make it work to go to your local club or social it is very difficult even for couples to get a private meet with genuine people.

I have been on here for a few years and I'm not the most glamorous person. But I still have fun and have met some very nice people on here. I do get quite a few nasty messages but I just delete and move on. Life's what you make it.

Can't give profile advice as you've not asked for it, but do you think anyone is going to interested based on yours? Or maybe this was just a plea for a pity shag.

Single men have the most competition on here like all dating sites and dating and sex in general, in the UK.

If they want interaction and action then they may wish t consider putting in more of the right kind of effort. When they get what they're looking for they won't feel like they have wasted their time.

If what they are doing isn't working they might do things differently if they have self-esteem issues. Like most times, people are their own worst enemy.

I guess it depends on what you think swinging is.

Getting your dick wet, purely because you joined Fab, with zero effort put in.

Or.....

Finding people where there's a mutual attraction, shared interests and desires, where you take time to build a connection and trust, long before you even think of being in the same room, let alone getting naked.

First one or second one?

Fab is not easy to navigate as a single male but when you can rise above the sea of dross on here it can be fantastic. I haven’t been that lucky post Covid but I constantly work on myself and my ability to sell myself via my messaging and profile. I need to be more confident still but I am getting there slowly. You have to remember you are entitled to nothing.

Being bi, over 50, chubby, average cock, crossdresser with fetishes really seems to limit the people that contact me and since I turned 50 it seems to have really reduced the amount of people's age range I'm in. Have had some good meets and met lovely people on here but due to the last 2 years it seems a lot are still not looking to meet. Had a time waster yesterday, seems a lot on here just want to get off chatting and not meeting. But will stay here as someone might come along you never know.

None of my meets have been 25 year old lottery winners with 9" cocks

Some of my meets have been with people whos profiles were quite bland but I liked their chat, positive people are fun to be around

One of the first guys I ever met from here was as you described OP and wanted to meet me for a social but I wasn't keen, as something didn't feel right when we were speaking.

I agreed to meet socially on my way home from work, as we passed through the same area. I figured it was not such a big deal, as was going to be there anyway.

I knew within two minutes that I wasn't interested.

The fact that he was stereotypically tall dark and handsome, the "Greek god" body you described with a large(r) manhood made zero difference to me.

Those physical and financial things you mentioned OP aren't the be all and end all for everyone.

Some of us don't even have them on our list of requirements.

If I don't enjoy talking to you, I won't want to be in your company. So nothing more will happen. Irrespective of your looks or finances.

I have no desire to be laying in bed with someone afterwards I can't talk to and if I can't talk to you, we won't make it to bed anyway.

I tend to see the site almost like a faceyB of swinging, I’ve had relatively little meets on here but the forums are informative and I enjoy looking at the peoples pictures and using club reviews as a good measure of potential clubs

What I can say it’s been good for is at clubs I can say to people this is my user name, I’m often asked, and it’s a great way to connect or set up something for later. I’ve been on this site for many years. Sometimes a conversation gets struck up out of nowhere and I enjoy it. I enjoy I’m not in the closet with my sexual preferences on here too, whereas every day life this isn’t so easy.

So the point you make is true, it’s probably useless for trying to meet anyone as a direct method but it’s very helpful indirectly and like FaceyB useful for killing some time. I think people get frustrated, there are other platforms more suited to meets, such as tinda but this website operates more as a town centre, people come to it from all places at all ages and all experience levels and can interact in whatever way that takes them, just most won’t hop into bed via this route

I’m not looking for a 25 year old (way too young), Greek god (wait, do they come with beards?!?) 9+inch, (way too big), and a lottery winner is just another way of saying rich I guess, and that’s certainly not on my list of reasons to meet people, so no, I disagree.

As a single guy I had great fun.

I’m 52 now, first joined when I was 44 and I’m bald, carrying a bit of podge and nowhere near 9”…

good.tjing I'm old otherwise you'd never meet me...

Confused by the OP. You admit to not having a great profile, so how do you know a profile won't help here?

Having been on and off, fab feels like it is busier. That probably makes it harder for those making the least effort ..

You've got to treat the women with respect. Go into things with interested parties with little expectations and let things happen naturally. If it happens good and if not maybe a new friend. I always feel you've got to have a bit of a connection with someone.

I've had a couple of meets in my short time on here on and off. With plenty of acquaintaces made.

It takes time, work and effort.

As I've answered many many times on threads like these.

FAB is just one tool in the box and very rarely does the job on its own.

Clubs, socials, and building up contacts are the way forward in this lifestyle and it does take time and effort.

We've had a lot of fun with many single guys from here and the Greek God with the 9" cock must have passed us by.

Bear in mind as well that we have the handicap of not even living in the UK

FAB is a useful addition to this lifestyle but we would never 100% rely on it.

The ones that do usually finish up starting threads like this one.

Things go bad and good things rise from them like the phoenix from her ashes.

Example: WWII was considered a bad thing all round but afterwards the building trade boomed in Pearl Harbour, Dresden, Coventry, London and especially in Hiroshima and Nagasaki for example.

Things improve for a while and then go bad again. You gotta laugh.

No, it really isn't. It might be, if it doesn't match unrealistic expectations that some decide on. That's their choice. And the type of effort that people invest is important.

If some want a young Adonis and older out of shape waste energy on them, I'd say it is misguided. The OP seems to realise this, which is good.

But. For single men entering the swinging world, I'd encourage them to balance their investments of time, energy and money, between a variety of swinging pursuits, including clubs, socials, trips etc and fab.

The Internet alone can be a tough nut to crack, especially if the interest easily to be gained from others to you, is levelled on a wrong side of a bell curve.

People are not just here for sex. There are many ways to get fulfilment here and via swinging. If your sex life is better via the real world, then it's a fairly easy to make decision, over where you'll get all of the satisfaction that you want. If you must have swinging satisfaction, then clubs and fab can lead to more of that.

I'm sure many people will continue this thread long after me.

Many people here have offered genuine advice, born out of many years swinging experience.

That you've not read or understood is not the responsibility of the writer, here or in other threads you've contributed to.

I'd suggest from your comments here and on other threads, you have too many chips on your plate.

Have a cracking time fathoming out the swinging world. Didn't happen to me overnight, took me a while. But I've loved every minute.

I hope you have the same great experiences the vast majority of us here have.

Based on your posts and responses, I think you're either writing a paper, a troll, or just very bored.

Good luck OP, have a great weekend.

Certainly not a waste of time if you look like you and have a penis that size :D.

For most of us, it's tough even getting chat. No one responds to messages, no matter how much effort I've put into messages, and time is precious after all. If you're putting effort into something and not getting anything from it, even in terms of chat and socials, then it's a waste of time

You're a good looking guy. That box ticked.

You're in good shape. That box ticked.

No idea what your old boy looks like (and no desire to), but a penis isn't the first thing we, and most people looking to meet men are interested in.

While it's tough to get a 1 2 1 social, there are plenty of group socials where you'd be welcomed. They're a great way to network, for people to see the warm human behind the cold impersonal written word on a website. And one group social can lead to invites and a welcome at others.

Penis, difficult, other than loose some weight.

Face, noy easy, other than take care of it, shave, get a decent hair cut.

Body, that can be achieved to "fab top 10pc" through dedication and hard work.

Everything's a waste of time if you not enjoying it .

So I guess your post is a sign that your not enjoying your fab experience .

Why is that OP are you here for just just sex OP is that all you really want the sex without the frill of the chance and the disappointment of the failed chase .

If that's the case you can easily rectify that elsewhere with no chase no foreplay needed on your part and the only thing it will hurt is your wallet .

Maybe just maybe your taking your search for sex to seriously and personally and allowing the search to become a much bigger deal than it really should be .

Relax don't expect anything more than some nice eye candy and a nice interesting read from time to time while your on here . Send out a few messages to people but don't expect a response just chill enjoy fab as a distraction from your day ti day life a bit of a escape from the norm and I feel you may enjoy your time here which will come across in your messages and interactions with people making you more attractive to people because of the relaxed vibe you will be giving off .

Hope my thoughts give you something to think on OP and good luck in your search chin up fella I hope you find some enjoyment and don't feel like your wasting your time on here for to much longer .

I know plenty of people who certainly aren't ripped and way over 50 who get offered more meets and parties on here than they know what to do with. They rely on their charm and understanding of how swinging works to get them where they are.

"When I look at fab, and how members are put down by others for their opinions, on a swinging site, I see why some may think its a waste of time.

I guess it depends on what you think swinging is.

Getting your dick wet, purely because you joined Fab, with zero effort put in.

Or.....

Finding people where there's a mutual attraction, shared interests and desires, where you take time to build a connection and trust, long before you even think of being in the same room, let alone getting naked.

First one or second one?

One of the first guys I ever met from here was as you described OP and wanted to meet me for a social but I wasn't keen, as something didn't feel right when we were speaking.

I agreed to meet socially on my way home from work, as we passed through the same area. I figured it was not such a big deal, as was going to be there anyway.

I knew within two minutes that I wasn't interested.

The fact that he was stereotypically tall dark and handsome, the "Greek god" body you described with a large(r) manhood made zero difference to me.

Those physical and financial things you mentioned OP aren't the be all and end all for everyone.

Some of us don't even have them on our list of requirements.

If I don't enjoy talking to you, I won't want to be in your company. So nothing more will happen. Irrespective of your looks or finances.

I have no desire to be laying in bed with someone afterwards I can't talk to and if I can't talk to you, we won't make it to bed anyway.

Yes fab is a bull ache for anyone, not just men. I been here for 4 years and had very few meets which in the end turned out to be a let down as some people are really good at talking but no action. looking forward joining clubs when I get a chance but have made great friends and written fun stories to share with others. So fab is really hard work but the rewards can be fulfilling.

I’ve been like this and I’ve honestly found that the less entitled I am, the less needy I am, the better results I get. I now delete messages from my sent box so I don’t end up harassing people, I keep my messages short and personalised and polite and not ridiculously sexual, and my response rate is about ten times higher than it was before. I’m not tall and good-looking and most conversations still go nowhere, but that’s the nature of these websites when you’re a guy. Focus on what you CAN change about yourself- for me it involves going to the gym more, making myself look better and become more attractive, and learning more about self-compassion so that rejection doesn’t fuel my own self-image.

Realised I didn't specify who I was agreeing with! The fact of the matter is the men outnumber the women significantly. This means you need to be attractive to get meets. And if you're not a looker you'd damn well be attractive in other ways. And threads like this basically make you seem unfun. Look at people meeting today. Five seconds show you that the women have their pick and you have to be as charming as you can be

Make it work to go to your local club or social it is very difficult even for couples to get a private meet with genuine people."

This is so true. It’s why we arrange meets at clubs, parties and arranged socials. So many times they don’t turn up, but we can still enjoy our evening.

It's a tricky place for single men, sure! comes with all the disadvantages of trying to succeed in a heavily oversaturated market.

It opens your eyes and shows you things (brutally honestly) that you might didn't want to face about your "value" as a man on the "sex market"... And even shows a worse picture than the reality, coz of the unlevel m/f ratio.

But if you are not scared of facing this, you can learn and improve yourself too and get a bit closer to what the majority of women want.

Because here women are very straightforward about what they look for, and especially those who are attractive enough themselves will not say yes to anything less than the top 10%. And first and foremost it meant by the look, for sure.

If you are looking for casual sex, then clubs and even regular dating apps are way better options! I do both, and though I would not consider myself a very handsome guy, I'm quite successful both in clubs and on Tinder.

If I didn't have those experiences that tell me that I can be successful with really attractive girls, this page would have destroyed my self-esteem, to be honest. You can find success and great connections here too - I also had the luck, and I'm very picky myself - but the amount of time you need to invest is ridiculous compared to clubs or dating apps. And the plenty of rejection you will face... let's put it this way, not the nicest feeling.

So, be careful, if you are a sensitive person!

Saying that fab is a waste of time for single men, doesn't make someone negative in general, not even negative about swinging.

I really hate when people have a pessimistic attitude, but I won't sugarcoat my experience that says if you are a single man and if you come here for the hope of finding sex partners (seriously, for what else would you come?), then more than likely you are not at the best place.

And when I say it, that actually can help other men to save their self-esteem! If they don't have too much experience in clubs/normal dating apps/real life, probably they would think that the price tag what their performance on this page puts on their head is their real "sex-market" value.

No, don't worry, it's not. Here you play on a very unlevel field which has nothing to do with real life. If you can accept and handle it, then it still can be some sort of fun, but seriously, you will have way more success in clubs or in real life.

For those who mention verifications, 2 out of my 3 veris are from club meets. I had two other which are not visible coz the girls are not on the page anymore, but I also met them in clubs. And I had probably hundreds of play sessions with couples and girls in clubs in the past 8 years, but usually, we don't even talk about this page.

On the other hand, I invested some ridiculous amount of time in this page (it can be frankly addictive) and met 2 couples and one girl from here, but received a number of rejections that would destroy my self-esteem for life if I didn't know how I do with girls in real life. Trust me, even Tinder or Happn are way better for a single man.

I also had a couple's profile for a while with an FWB recently, that is another game, that makes sense!

On the other hand, I invested some ridiculous amount of time in this page (it can be frankly addictive) and met 2 couples and one girl from here, but received a number of rejections that would destroy my self-esteem for life if I didn't know how I do with girls in real life. Trust me, even Tinder or Happn are way better for a single man.

I also had a couple's profile for a while with an FWB recently, that is another game, that makes sense! "

Life is all about how the cookie crumbles my friend! You’ve done well in the clubs, whereas I felt like the invisible man I do well using Fab to find likeminded friends, whereas you have had little success. There’s only so much we can do to influence our chances, some things just have a way of sorting themselves out

That's actually a good thing that each can find the place they prefer and succeed, and sure we can't be a winner everywhere!

Though it's still hard to imagine for me, how can you find this page better than clubs? Getting to the meeting from the first message, then getting to the bed from the first face to face "hello" requires the same as being successful in clubs: good communication skills, good manners and definitely something about your physical appearance. Without these you could not be successful in the meetings you arranged on this page, I guess.

But, having these skills, you can use them in a club where the m/f ratio is much less terrible than here. (If you visit the right place) You do the same with way less competition.

Anyway, it's good to hear that some men are doing well here too!

How can you say the m/f ratio is better in clubs than in here? There’s hardly ever any women in clubs? Least not when I went? Those that were in, were part of couples, and either hung out in their ‘established groups of friends’ (cliques), or plain weren’t interested in single guys.

It’s basically a two hour drive in any direction, for me to get to a club. When you get there, you have the opportunity (in theory), to chat with whoever is in while you are there. You can be lucky, there may be some nice, friendly people in, who don’t look down their noses at you like you’re something they stood in (and I include so-called hosts in that), and you may enjoy your night.

The advantage of Fab is, you can message someone you think you may match with, at any time, from the comfort of your home, or anywhere you take your phone with you, and they can respond at any time. It’s much more convenient, and you can carry on more than one conversation at a time. There’s none of that 2/3 hour window because you happen to be in the same place at the same time.

I don’t know why I haven’t had better luck in the clubs. I know there’s nothing ‘wrong’ with my social skills, and as you can see from my verifications, people who do meet me seem to like me. The fact is; I seem to be more attractive on a screen than I do in person. Or did I choose the wrong nights, at the wrong clubs? The last club I went to was Club Play in Blackpool, and that experience was typical; once I’d paid my money, I was instantly forgotten. Probably the loneliest experience of my life, and certainly no advert for visiting another club as a single guy.

Probably I'm lucky to live in London, there are certainly more choices here. My favourites are OP4F and LeBoudoir, but I only go to nights, when the number of single guys is limited. For example, OP4F has a great Saturday night party, they let in only 5 single men, and usually, you will see around 15-30 couples and 2-3 single girls. But I recently tried Penthouse Playrooms, and their Saturday night party was also good, the m/f ratio wasn't beyond 2:1 (including the male part of couples), which is okay.

My experience says that those couples who attend a party where a limited number of single men are allowed to, usually don't rule out us guys. And there is definitely a better chance of starting a chat, as they don't receive hundreds of convo starters like here on fab.

Also, you are face to face, so you can instantly feel if there is good chemistry or not, which can be tricky if you talk online, and sometimes you/they will be disappointed when see each other IRL.

I'd recommend you to pay a visit to London and try one of these clubs if you have a chance for it but go for an event with a limited number of single men. I can promise, you will have a good time!

"Fantastic! A single male!" said no club ever lol.....

If I do get the chance to visit a club in the South, I will give it a go. There's literally nothing to lose, and it will fill an evening, if nothing else.

While I appreciate your advice about looking for events where couples are interested in meeting single guys, I am really looking to meet single women? I have been fortunate to be invited to play with couples before, but I'm much more of a 121 guy. I need to look for events which are likely to be attended by single women, looking for single, straight, white guys, which appears to be a big ask, in many ways lol
