I've been on here on and off since I was 26. I always come back haha.

Only you can make that decision. Fab is frustrating and it's not an easy site to find what you want, but ultimately I find it worth it.

You just need to decide if you do.

"is there a way of building confidence up "

Confidence comes from within yourself. My advice is accept who you are and don't try to be something you aren't. If there is something you can change about yourself that you feel will give you more confidence then do it, again this comes from you.

If you aren't happy on here then get out. The dating scene is far easier, for guys, than fabs will ever be.

If what you're doing isn't working then the only sensible choice is to change what you're doing.

Just being here guarantees nothing. Trying the same unsuccessful approach will just get the same results.

Good luck

I’d say stay… take a break from fab a week or two comeback and see how you feel.

It’s your choice and only you can say how you feel, and make your choice

Maybe take a break, place your profile into hidden, take some time away and if you choose to come back, you carry on where you left.

Try to avoid the mistake of deleting, coming back and trying to start again.

Take care, OP.

19 verifications pretty good for a guy on here, delete and you lose the lot. Hide your profile instead I do when I’m not feeling it.

All posts are ‘attention posts’ you don’t create or contribute to a thread if you’re not looking for some attention.

Most single guys on here don't speak to anyone most of the time. 2/3 in one night is very good going. I'd stop moaning about it if I was you

"seriously debating wether to stay on fab or leave "

My advice is hide your profile and don't log on for a while.

You may feel differently in a few weeks.

Much easier than constantly leaving and returning.

Don't forget your password though

It's amazing how many people say they are leaving a d you then see them online the next day.

It's tough on fab as a single guy. But as in the real world not everyone is attracted to each other and just because the site is whatnot is, doesn't mean your guaranteed a meet.

Just hang in there and chill.

I have been using this site for over 15 years now. The first time I left I deleted my profile, which I definitely regretted when I decided to rejoin.

You can hide your profile, you can just turn on all your message filters. Either of these options work well if you feel the need to take a break.

If you feel that your only problem is your lack of confidence when you attend a club, then you probably just need to keep going to clubs. Eventually, chatting to others becomes easier.

Meh, I dunno -- it's easier to get laid on conventional dating sites, so if you're just here for a shag you will drive yourself barmy.

Me too, so leaving wouldn't really bother me tbh. My sub is up today so having similar thoughts. I have previously just hidden it especially when I meet someone and start dating I've either deleted it all or hidden it all. The dating apps are way more fruitful as a single guy, plenty kinky folks out there who've never heard of this site or just dont feel the need to be part of 'the scene' or lifestyle but they are plenty fun in the bedroom.

There are a few on here who routinely post, or put on their profile, how they are leaving, they are fed up , it’s not working, it’s too much … etc, etc - but never do!!

Then there are others I have spoken, or are friends with in here who simply just disappear - maybe for the reasons cited above.

The bottom line is, those who talk about it often don’t, those who don’t talk about often do.
