"It's because lots of guys on here are timewasters, fantasists, or both. Thats why genuine guys find it harder to meet. I've met lots of couples who say they are messed around by guys all the time." That's what I get told alot and why I gave up in the end | |||

"ah thanks guys, im tempted to upload a few pics, but whats wrong with private messaging pics? i come across nice and genuine but it just seems like a no go" Because a lot of people browse for people Instead of waiting for messages to land in their inbox. And most of those people will pass by profiles with no pics. You don't have to put face pics In public just a few nice varied body shots. Also ignore the negative comments on here. There's plenty of single guys that get lots of meets!! X | |||

"I seem to get some interest from couples. The problem is i'll be in bed at 1am trying but failing to sleep, when a couple will msg asking to meet there and then.

"Single men by en large are fine on this site the problem is the percentage of good guys to idiots is about the same as with all the demographics but as the site is about 75% single men it makes it seem worse. Just remember there are a huge number of guys and not many single females and couples who meet guys so it exasperates the difficulty of getting a meet. " This. | |||

If I went out with friends this Saturday and managed to arrange a sitter which is something I don't get to si very often and got home and thought is see if anyone was about and wanted to meet. If there wasn't it could be weeks or even months before I have chance again. A hell of a lot of people on here have young families, shift work and god knows how many other things that they prioritise before they can meet. They aren't all sat by their laptops dressed in stockings waiting for an offer. | |||

Hundreds of negative men on here, hundreds . Ladies don't have this problem as they can pick and chose" Then why not try and be different and be positive? It's no easier for women on here than guys! Yes the numbers work in their favour - but then single guys don't seem to have the same problems - dealing with constant inane messages and an expectancy that they will drop their knickers just because someone's decided to send a message! You'll get out what you put in. You're profile is your shop window. This isn't 'insta-shag'. Look at yourself and your messages and ask yourself would you reply/be in any way attracted if the shoe was on the other foot? There are many more 'standard responses' to any thread showing negativity or expressing disappointment about life on Fab - but those will do for now! | |||

"You'll get out what you put in. You're profile is your shop window." No, you really don't. The shop window analogy is pretty fallacious, implying that a single male profile has its own, fairly positioned placement in a shopping district where its likely to garner however much business as the shop keeper is willing to work for, when in effect a single males profile is more like a single stall in an exceptionally loud, messy and vastly overcrowded market. Sure, you can dress it up, make sure you have the best wares, display them in the best fashion and even advertise to the fullest of your ability, but regardless of all of this, the sheer, utter excess of supply vs demand when it comes to single males will always work against you - thats the real reason why single males are treated like shit, theres just too many of them. | |||

We all havelives outside of here (as you do too)..... so dont think that its your profile or you that is wrong, its just circumstances. Enjoy the site, chat, forum, cams etc and when it happens enjoy the meets. xxx good luck xxx | |||

Yet again - we'll have to agree to disagree! And I'm pretty sure you'll find most guys that are meeting, having good conversations, enjoying the social side as well as the sex - and who find themselves in a position where they both send AND receive initial messages due to putting some effort into their profile content, their posts on the forums and if in chat, show respect and an ability to keep their duck off cam - might just agree with me? | |||

But it is your shop window! Most women will read the profile of a person who has just messaged them, before they open the message (myself included) and if the profile is extremely lazy, ie 'Looking for fun, up for anything' Then I will not even bother looking at the message, yes us females can be very fickle at times | |||

I know it might sound wussy but I am more likely to respond to a message that shows some interest in me, not what the guy wants to do. Also, it gets said again and again but I see the guys who admit to going to clubs and socials being much more successful. Not always, but mostly. | |||

"I object to any sweeping statements about single gents being treated like shit. Some deserve to be treated with contempt because of the way they treat women. Others deserve to be treated with respect as they do not treat women as a piece of meat or just a notch on the bed post, or holes to stick their dicks in them. " Absolutely. And likewise the vast majority of women are great fun on here - but some feel the need to be quite what I can only describe as "anti men" and I am not sure what that is all about? | |||

"So many guys with a sense of entitlement on here. If you aren't getting replies to your messages then reassess what you're saying to people. Personally i wouldn't reply to anyone on here who is bitter and moany. Its meant to be fun - if you find it isn't then just leave. " This. A female friend on here told me too many men think this website is called instant shag not fab swingers. She said too many men think sending a message should guarantee a meet. She got a message the other day from a guy who clearly not read her profile. It was a one line message. She deleted it. He sent another message calling her an ignorant bitch and blocked her. She simply blocked him back and go on with her life. I know not all single guys think and behave like this but there are a fair few that do. | |||

Uv opened the door for sarcasm and insult there buddy lol, single guys are bottom of the food chain unfortunately, i went thru years of trying to be nice and polite and humorous and and, not much changes here when ur a couple so dont get disheartened. Pics are a good idea tho, a good facial and body shot or two. Check as much about the person/people as you can to see if they are into single guys as they usually dont even acknowledge you, with the attitude that you shd have looked/checked. Conversation is a complete mission with most here anyway, you can write a nice long and detailed intro and ul get back....yes mate, any face pics! lol We dont look at faces, not first anyway, we look for intelligence and personality, the former usually covers risk issues the latter self explanatory. Its tricky for most mate, lots cant even be bothered to read your profile if its over one paragraph....no idea that oral sex poses a huge risk, condom/safe sex shouted all across every page...huge libraries of pose material and all topped off with the funniest deciding factor ever, the face lmao | |||

"There seems to be a few negative men on this post, that would be an instant turn off for me! Not all females treat single men like sh*te, it works both ways and yes I do meet single men! Hundreds of negative men on here, hundreds . Ladies don't have this problem as they can pick and chose Then why not try and be different and be positive? It's no easier for women on here than guys! Yes the numbers work in their favour - but then single guys don't seem to have the same problems - dealing with constant inane messages and an expectancy that they will drop their knickers just because someone's decided to send a message! You'll get out what you put in. You're profile is your shop window. This isn't 'insta-shag'. Look at yourself and your messages and ask yourself would you reply/be in any way attracted if the shoe was on the other foot? There are many more 'standard responses' to any thread showing negativity or expressing disappointment about life on Fab - but those will do for now!" never a truer word spoken!! | |||

"Most girls on here seem to think im a timewaster just cos im a single lad, any ideas on how to get past that?" Are you sure, why do you assume this? We dont assume every guy we speak to on here is a time waster unless weve been let down for the 3rd/4th time or strung along with lies. I will say though, weve been on here for over a year now and whilst we've had and met some lovely guys the majority of the messages we get off guys are either to waste our time/string us along for webcamming or disrespectful. It just paints a bad picture for the rest of the guys on here, we do bare it in mind and know single guys get it hard on a whole on here but it doesnt really help the cause and kind puts me (Mrs) off anyway when we do encounter those who mess us about. Good luck anyway hun, Mrs | |||

" Or they've been out down the pub or for a meal and have got home horny? " For a meal?? When I have a meal all I want is a nap after, must be an age thing | |||

"Face pics probably best as it shows you're open about being on here (although you can always legitimately cite professional discretion as a requirement) and allows you to be ruled in/out on the basis of attraction. Otherwise definitely body on profile, maybe a cock (although that's a turn off for some- but can be a vital selling point for others) and always a face pic with your initial message AND every subsequent message. I reckon that because some ladies/couples have such cluttered inboxes they sometime delete ANY message they see without pics attached even if it is someone they've spoken to before just because they can't keep track of the usernames they're corresponding with." Unfortunately true, not so much the deleting, (though I have done it ) but just being able to remember who I'm talking to, a profile pic really helps, and for me it's preferably anything but a cock pic. | |||

"It's because lots of guys on here are timewasters, fantasists, or both. Thats why genuine guys find it harder to meet. I've met lots of couples who say they are messed around by guys all the time." but ain't they entitled to a chance ! Maybe some women and couples know they can be choosy so they choose the ones they think are great and a boost to their ego and then let down ! Oooh controversial | |||

"The same person making the same negative remarks! If the site is that bad why are you still here? I'm truely interested! Whilst being here as a single female (for over three years), have I had a meet in months? No I haven't...Am I complaining? No I'm not... Is the caliber and the approach of men a low standard? To 'me' yes they are! So in that case I will then choose who I meet and who I wont, I just get so fed up of peoples attitudes, I'd just rather go without! But as they say'each to their own' So for the time being I will be going without! " I already dispensed awesome advice to the very same on a different thread, have a search and see what you think | |||

Its the way we are treated and spoken to at times. Not all couples are like that but many do like to think all they have to do is click their fingers and I will go running . When I don't I get shitty messages about timewasting etc etc . Its clearl a dent to their egos that someone should say no to them That was all I was saying , if this has upset anybody I apologize. I will now behave Goodnight | |||

"I've been a member of this site for some time now and still haven't had a meet to this day... I understand the fact women get tons of messages daily and can't reply to all but for some guys it must really kill them inside to send bitter messages back lol I believe I'm respectful and have a rounded profile not too crude yet not too vague but still struggle... Guess you just have to stay positive and think to your self where your going wrong... A part of me believes it may be my age or the simple fact I have no verifications to vouch for me " I would suggest you are definately doing something wrong! | |||

"I find a lot of the single men who message me either obviously haven't read my profile,have the conversational skills of a teaspoon,or are just plain rude.Not all men are like that though,some actually manage more than a one line message saying "Suck my dick tonight" or "I want to make you my slut" to you single guys that put some thought into your messages,actually read profiles,and don't demand meets instantly and don't become abusive when you don't get the answer you wanted,thank you,it doesn't go unnoticed and your decency is appreciated,keep it up and you will find what you desire if you are patient enough.I've chatted to some lovely single men on here,so they definitely exist,it's just the idiots and dreamers unfortunately outnumber you and give you a bad rep xx" appreciate what you're saying but I've wrote nice messages with a pic and it's just been deleted ! Purely because ' oh I've so many messages ' ! So don't worry OP you have to keep plodding on for the sake of the ' male army' lol | |||

" but ain't they entitled to a chance ! " ...and herein gentlemen is the key to some of your problems! NO!!! You're NOT entitled to anything. Once some of you come to the realisation people are on site for their own hedonistic pleasure which might not include you, the happier you'll be. I only meet single men. I don't receive 100s of messages a day. I could reply to every message I receive but I don't. I receive about 10 messages a week. I've responded to ONE this year, we're meeting this week. I have on my profile if you don't meet what I'm looking for: no reply. There is no ambiguity about the type of man I'm looking for. If my inbox is anything to go by I can just imagine how inundated some can get. Be selective, don't take a scattergun approach, accept you won't float everyone's boat and avoid the negative, bitter, entitled attitude as displayed by some on this thread! | |||
