After all, you've been here 4 months with no meet. No cam veri....no social veri. Are you seriously telling me no one wanted a coffee with you? Clearly the women are not timewasters because they have verifications, not inspite of them! I don't know what you've been doing so can't advise you on what you've been doing wrong. Obviously, your 'window' is your profile. If there's nothing in the window, ladies won't stop by. | |||

Why should they when the have so many guy to choose from. Good luck | |||

In many ways it's the golidlocks of ages.....although you know that crap expression that life begins at 40? Well.... B) you don't know who is going to attend nor can you find out so you can't know the ages of other people C) don't blame your age - younger people sometimes do because it's something out of their control and so absolves them from responsibility. | |||

A lot of people on here don't even read message they will just click onto your profile, so now can you see how when people have said your profile is your window? It's not insta shag on here, just because there are women on here does not mean they are going to shag every guy that messages them..... Think majority of guys that join this site think that if they join they will have women queuing to fuck them... Then are disappointed when that doesn't happen.

Just write tons then edit it. Spend sone time looking through the advice section on here and see what advice other people have given and look at sexually successful mens profiles. Get ideas from their profiles. Join in the forums and chatrooms. Socials are good cos you get veris and more importantly, you meet real people who know people who know people..... | |||

Show some of your eccentricity in your profile - show some of your personality and character....write something that ladies will read and make them think 'I wonder what he's like for real?'....More than 2 pics? Why not show them then? No need for cock pics - body bits pics! | |||

"Hows it looking now guys?" Too restrictive you not had a meet in all this time and your blocking loads of meets with your profile After all your only meeting for a drink and you can filter any offers for dates yourself after Bear in mind that there are sime stunning over 30 ladies on her and over size 14 ladies let me tell you the best sex I have ever had has been with over 30 and over size 14 and some of the best laughs have been too dont take it so seriously mate meet people with open mind to age and size and body hair then if you are lucky enough to be asked for a second date make the choice if you find them attractive Just see I was hooked on over 40's in my 30's have found the older the lady the more they kniw what they want and are more relaxed about enjoying it Good luck and remember your only fishing for a social by your own admission and then see where it goes | |||

"Hows it looking now guys?" my advice is this my friend. dont use fab to meet women... seeing as you say you dont want to meet anyone over size 14, you basically just crossed of 95% of the site anyway. you should just use fab to have a good giggle on the forums and get yourself on POF, tinder, badoo... ive met about 30 people in the last 8 months on those and over half of those turned into sexual encounter. (Just be honest on your profile though that you dont want anything serious, dont mislead anyone). There are an abundance of stunners on there. your not a bad looking guy and you will do well I think. Thats My advice anyway. good luck | |||

" Im too fat lol size 16 " I never used the word 'fat' someone can be size 16 and still be proportional and sexy, but as a very slender guy I don't think id be compatible is all. It's just like a women doesn't want to tower over her man | |||

Pictures paint a thousand words and all that If that doesnt work get yourself down to Smokey Mo's on a Saturday night lol. Good luck either way | |||

"I think you probably could have said the content of your profile in fewer words. You emphasize the body type that you want, and this narrowness may deter some, who maybe uncertain they fit your criteria. Add info on what geographical area you'll cover. Clubs and socials get you meeting others-you say you're confident so that should be easy. A better range of pics would work more strongly. Try some taken by others as you'll relax and smile more." Thanks will do some of that, as for the body type I feel it is justified as alot of women on here describe their preference too. Thanks again | |||

"Just checked your profile and it looks pretty good tbh! Get yourself to a club (townhouse isn't far from you) or a social, meet a few people (but don't go with any expectations of playing, just go and mingle and see what happens). Once you've met a few people and been verified you might find things a little easier on here Good luck mate " Ahh cool thanks | |||
