"Hi op, We met here and kept our individual profiles,we just cross reference our couple profile on each single account. Miss" Do you think cross references helps, or hinders? Specifically, for the male half? We're finding it (very) easy for Mrs to get solo meets - no surprise there. Whereas for him we're met with suspicion - even though we offer a voice call with the missus to check this isn't a cheating scenario. Guys wanting to meet her solo don't even ask about any of that! Surely, if we have a solo profile for him, and cross-reference the couples profile, we'll be back to square one with people just thinking he's cheating? | |||

" I think he's just going to have to accept that it's going to be tougher for him than his other half on here " That's a given.She gets streams of offers on a daily basis. We know how it works on here so absolutely no surprises there. But if the odds can be evened up just a little, it would be nice. | |||

He will learn very quickly that life as a ‘single’ male on here will not be easy. You are going to get waaaay more action than him if you have singles profiles. | |||

I've spoken to women and couples from my profile to assure them that I'm happy for Jack to meet alone. Yep agree ,nobody ever asks to speak to Jack,to confirm he's ok with me having meets . He hasn't done too badly with meets from his own profile in the past. Although he did have a social with a lady who then decided she wasn't comfortable that he was in a relationship,even though she knew before the meet and had spoken to me herself . It does seem to be a fab double standard that mean are viewed suspiciously,even when it can be verified by their partner . | |||

" He will learn very quickly that life as a ‘single’ male on here will not be easy. You are going to get waaaay more action than him if you have singles profiles." He is well aware of this. Remember he’s dealing with single men all the time on our couples account, so he knows exactly how hard it is for them to get dates. He’s also had a singles profile on here before, and did have several solo meets. Although he found that many genuinely single women on here were actually looking for partners! We’re not new to this, we’ve been swinging for 30 years, and we’ve had loads of meets, mainly MMF, but also MFF, MMFF and we’ve both had several solo meets too (I’ve even had FF meets) But we know the score, and we know the game is very much rigged in favour of the women. x Miniskirt | |||

"We meet solo, but only he has a single profile currently. We've found a lot of people find it to be catfishing for him to message from the couple profile about a meet I wouldn't be going to. However it always seems fine when I do the same!! I've had a single profile before, but completely honestly found the attention too overwhelming. Hundreds of messages that never got read." Exactly the same experience we had / have. Miniskirt really doesn't need her own profile - she gets enough attention on the couples one. Perhaps Driver really does need his own solo profile, again. | |||

"We're one of the (possibly rare) couples who meet solo. Should we continue to use our couples profile for organising solo meets? Or would it be better to have solo profiles for that business? We worry that people who don't read our verifications might think we're yet another single man posing as a couple - which, if they do read our verifications, they can soon see we're not. What do think? Especially would be interested to hear from other couples who meet alone. " As others have said, it is very inequal/one sided on the single profiles front unfortunately. And there is definitely more suspicion from women even when mentioning the wife's single profile etc which is frustrating. You at least mention very obviously on your profile that you enjoy solo meets as well as together, unfortunately it's just the way of Fab that you will get more offers from men than women for that. My husband has found it far easier meeting and getting to know folk through in person socials and club nights than online for the above reasons. Could be worth a try and good luck to you both! | |||

" Yeah, good suggestion that. We've been to clubs and socials together and it is a good way to meet people. Probably easier than the single male account option - that's definitely a lot of hard work and frustration. | |||

" This is something that we've just started to experiment with, I have loads of messages but Mr finds that women he does get a conversation with don't put much effort in. I'm super chatty and will chat to a lot of people regardless, apparently that's not how a lot of solo women operate! It's hard work! | |||

Separate profiles would mean constanly logging out to check each others accounts. Just a thing we have. But we're very clear in our bio I tnk. N | |||

"When I meet men from couples, I prefer messages from a legit, well verified couples profile " Or better still meet as a couple first, with solo meets as follow up meets, arranged in person | |||

"When I meet men from couples, I prefer messages from a legit, well verified couples profile " Interesting that you should say this. Because we have wondered if a couples profile is actually more better than a single guy's - even for getting solo meets. We seem to qualify too - we're legit, and we have several verifications that prove we're both real. | |||

" That way you can also see it’s not just a bloke posing as a couple. " Definitely have seen those profiles. Pretty obvious from our profile and verifications that it is not just a bloke posing as a couple though. | |||

" That way you can also see it’s not just a bloke posing as a couple. Definitely have seen those profiles. Pretty obvious from our profile and verifications that it is not just a bloke posing as a couple though. " I think we need to get off the subject of fake couples because it's obvious you are real. Was just thinking meeting singly is doable but to assuage the worries of the person they meet that it's not a single guy pretending maybe they could just meet the couple first. Then do singly later. Sure there are plenty out there that don't care and will meet anyone, but for those that are unsure it's an easy fix. | |||
