Catch 22

This site is like a catch 22!

You can't get a meet without verifications but you can't get verified without a meet!

I've had a few meets planned and been let down each time!

Is anyone else experiencing this? Probably more guys than women I'm guessing

No problem here maybe it's your selection process if you have been let down a few times

Socials are a good way to start for a bit of networking

maybe it's because you are attached, maybe it's because of your poor maths skills

If you've been let down review your own selection process

You'd be surprised, I have been let down on numerous occasions.

Are the people letting you down verified?? There in lies the problem!

I was fortunate enough to get a verification early. I updated my status regularly blatantly asking for a verification and nothing more and one local lady responded. It was something along the lines of "anyone want to meet for coffee today, I need a verification, my shout". We met for nothing more than 20 minutes a coffee and a verification. We did end up keeping in touch mind you and it went further the second time we met.

You can, of course, get verified on cam as well.

Found it ha ha. Believe it or not the below actually worked and it didn't even cost me lunch!

"Anyone in Edinburgh want to meet for lunch? I want to be verified so my shout, nothing more required!"

I was at a club on Monday but unfortunately didn't get anyone to verify me. Didn't really feel like it was the right thing to drop into a conversation at the time. Have been messaging one of the woman I bumped into so may ask her.

Don't go to a club just to get a veri. Go because it's something you are interested in doing. Socials are a good idea though.

I couldn't get into that book because the main character was such a dick.

That's bad logic. Everyone started with no verifications so therefore people meet people with no verifications.

When men can't get meets, they blame anything and everything they have no control over - age, height, lack of verifications, nose shape etc. It's an easy way out. Doesn't achieve anything though. Nothing positive anyway.

How about making sure your profile is top notch and what you say to people is good? That's how people get meets and verified if they don't go to clubs or socials.

insanity is doing the same thing again and again, and expecting a different result...

so if you have been let down "again and again"..... isn't the common denominator you?????

so if the same thing is happening "again and again" then isn't it time to change what you are doing?

just a thought.............

There is no catch 22.

Every verified member started life on Fab the same way - unverified.

Every. Single. One.

Men. Women. TV/TS. And couples.

It's a cop out to claim there is and simply a means of deflecting the reason for a lack of a veri from something the profile owner can control.

. Verifications can be completely meaningless . If you have a well written profile with good pictures you will get meets ..However if your profile just states that you are male and seeking sex you may struggle. As there are plenty of fish in the sea , your profile needs to be exceptional in order to be sekected. Is yours ?.

Wait first you can't get meets but then you say you've planned a few meets?
