I might be 18 but, I still feel people don't feel comfortable talking to someone my age.

You're cute but you're looking for a relationship, you can't travel, and you can't accommodate. Your age will only add to the fact that many people will find it pointless to message you.

True statement there!

You need to begin opening your opportunities ie:driving, accommodation, straight simple profile, get out there, don't pest just be a upfront confident guy & you might get there in the end bud

Your age is against you, althouh there are more 20 somethings on here, but you need to re-think your profile. It starts "I don't know why I am here" and "want a relationship", that in itself can put a lot of people off.

If you can travel then state how far you are willing to travel, do you rely on public transport or drive.

You need to sell yourself.

Also being totally honest your profile does not come over as someone who should be on a sex site

looking for a relationship

sick of being lonely

just want someone to actually like me

are all warning signs to me to stay away regardless of age

would you be able to cope with someone just using you for sex?

Read your profile and in my honest opinion give up now. You don't know why you are here. You want a relationship. You are lonely. This site will eat you alive snd spit you out.

I agree as I wouldn't really call this a dating site, more of a sharing site haha

Most people here are already in a relationship or are single because the love being single and sexual

You should take your relationship bit of, relax, chat and enjoy some no strings fun, and possibly some experiences you never have before, the best relationships come along when your not looking, perhaps by the time you've experienced some of the hottest types of sexual fun on here you will realise why singles love being singles and carry on

you are an adult so of course you have the right to be here... however just be aware that you going to be far too young for a lot of people, remember that a fair few will have kids your age or there abouts and that will make some uncomfortable.....

Your profile text is immature it def needs re-writing! Doing 'weird things is fine but prob keep them to yourself!! There is nothing sexy or attractive about the text and it dont tell anyine what ur looking for! Have a good think about what ur aim is on here and re write it, you may get some interest then!

So delete this account, and use the one's you claim to be doing fine on. If all else fails plenty of fish is that way -.

Alternatively check out the forum for recent threads similar to this, lots of advice, unfortunately FAB is a numbers game, of which us single males are ten a penny. Patience is a virtue and so is a well constructed message. Your profile needs to stand out, it's your shop window so dress it accordingly.

In answer to your question I don't think you are too young but in my honest opinion you are going to find it hard.

- you beat me to it! Reckon PoF would be far more up your street

I don't really think it's a question of age quite so much as attitude, and reading back through your comments on this thread ObliviousOne I don't mean to be unkind, but I get the feeling you're not going to find whatever it is you're after on fab.

Your first paragraph is pretty weird and off putting. Never read any further and nothing to do with your age

Easy to blame something that you can't influence for your lack of success rather than things you can

Unfortunately my friend I don't think you are taking this seriously. Your delusional approach and inability to grasp the concept of this site will render you without a bonafide meet. You asked for an opinion and you got many along with some helpful advice, to which you have chosen to ignore. My opinion is unchanged, physically you are old enough to be here, emotionally and mentally, I'd hang up your spurs for the meantime and get yourself to a night club.

I have read your previous profile and before commenting I thought I would re read it, however it has been changed.

You say how there is too many peope to write for. Your profile should be about you and what you seek. Don't worry too much regarding what others think. The reason I say this is... those that message you like you for who you are. The ones that won't message you are not a fan and not worth worrying about. As we all have preferences, as a result not all will want to play with you.

Often... if you find the right people they are worth waiting for.

People are not asking you to lie. In fact people are just giving you their best advice from experience which is something you lack, not meant as a negative!

You're quite correct - you shouldn't lie to benefit others... but nobody has suggested that as far as I can see.

In this lifestyle, you get out what you put in. So do what you like with your profile - and reap the rewards of your efforts.

This. People need to have a high level of emotional intelligence. Saying 'I don'tknow why I'm here' is honest but why are you here? For free sex and lots of it? Prepare for some knockbacks....you've already asked that you might be too young....it's a barrier to some. Not to others.

Your profile needs to be top notch.

My God just do the site a favour and leave.

Clearly not here for the right reasons and to be honest you seem like a bit of pessimistic attention seeker.

If you can't be doing with the hassle of writing something vaguely interesting/polite then the closest relationship you're going to get on anysite is with your hand.

i rewrote my profile loads of time over the space of 7 months to get it to how i wanted it i asked the forums for advice a lot of it i took and some of it i didn't, i didn't write my profile for everyone on here i wrote it for the people i am interested in meeting, but if you're giving up after a few tries then im starting to think this isn't for you.

Perhaps the op will realise that the answer is yes ...

Some 18 year olds may get it , he clearly doesn't and a swingers site is not the place for the op to find what he is looking for

And when writing your new profile make sure that you spell things correctly. It's annoying and frustrating reading profiles that obviously haven't been checked for basic spelling errors.

In answer to your original question, if you're more comfortable talking to people older than you then no, you're not too old for this site.

What I would say is that people older than you, generally speaking, don't want to feel as though they are talking to someone much younger than them and if I can be honest, some of the answers you've given in response to the posts on this thread and indeed the newest update to your profile make you sound like the archetypal huffy, petulant teenager.

My advice would be to sit back, watch whats going on, really get to grips with how the site works and accept that its a sex site and thats what people are looking for. Yes, theres sometimes friendship along the way but that not what people join Fab for.

Once you've decided if you're going to stay, I would definitely say cheer up, rewrite your profile in a positive manner and in a way that people might be attracted to your personality as most people want to hit it off with someone as much as get into their pants.

Good luck!
