" We arranged a group sessionn recently and all but one guy turned up.We always invite people we have met previously or recommended by friends or well verified... And one or two newbies .it was the newbie that showed up. Sadly with fab being in the media so much lately we think it's getting worse. | |||

" but if the same thing is happening to you again and again.... then the common denominator is you... and that is the point I think is being made... and thats why people talk about selection processes... lets say you were 0-10 in meeting people... would you really do the same thing on the 11th occasion, or would you expect a different result... it happens with regards to couples, it happens in regards to single women.... but yet again single men are being held up and bashed like some sort of pariah's | |||

" I have no idea why you feel so attacked by me. but it's probably not my problem." I don't feel attacked by you at all.... I just pointed out something that you didn't which is that is not just single guys who do this..... you were the one that picked on single guys in your OP... I said its not just the domain on single guys.... someone else asked you if you would be so loud in your complaint if it was a couple.... its a question you didn't answer what i said is that "being an arse" isn't exclusive to one group... I don't think that is a controversial thing to say.... | |||

"Yes a pain in the backside! Especially couples or women who turn down at the Last minute, esp when I pay for hotels. But it is common, I presume its nerves. Best to have a social first. Before any real physical fun." People don't turn up for socials either. Less of a pain though, I guess. | |||

"rubbish. and sorry, I didn't see that question. where was it? and you guys have to go back and to read my postings again. I said I knew that women and couples do that. but that I am surprised that single guys do it. the only explanation I have for you attacking me here is that you might be some of the single guys who are oh so poor and badly treated here. other than this I can't explain your reaction.

"I didn't say it happens to me again and again.... and I'm not bashing single guys.

It is indeed usually mainly single guys that complain they are treated badly and not given a chance. They probably got cold feet and chickened out. | |||

Are the guys that complain about being treated badly and not getting meets the ones that don't turn up? A | |||

"The point of the op was simply that it is puzzling that do many guys complain that they can't get meets , yet plenty say they will turn up for a meet , and don't. We used to believe that couples and single women were the worst for this , but believe me , single guys are the worst by a country mile ! Our block listt for single guys not showing up with no excuse is now nearing 100 ! We only have 5 couples and 2 single women on it for the same reason . And no tv's . Hard facts , but facts all the same " But as I said earlier - are these no shows from guys posting forum threads bemoaning their treatment and their struggles to get meets - or are they from the 99% of the male Fab population that don't set foot in the forums? The higher volume of male members will undoubtedly mean there is a higher probablility of a let down. It's simple numbers. But whether you're looking to meet guys, women or couples there's always a risk. And many things you can do to minimise (but never remove) that risk. A | |||

I've learnt not to arrange things around fab, I arrange fab around my life. cool idea! " is there really anything else but fab haha .... Just kidding before anyone picks me up on it Being serious though ... i always arrange to meet anyone for the first time socially for a coffee (where ever Im going to be at the time) ..... or at a club as there's no loss then if they don't turn up. From my experience there are lots of fabulous genuine people on fab and long may it continue. | |||

"why do some single guys react so angry on this? I explain it again....... the fourth time? I know that couples and single women sometimes don't turn up to meets. it happened now that single guys didn't turn up to meet us. I am personally surprised that this happens. because I see it very often that single guys complain here about not being treated well. and therefore I would have thought they would take a chance and turn up. this is all I said. I didn't bash single guys. I didn't say women and couples are better. maybe I thought single guys are more honest, because I don't see a reason why they would lie. behind a single girl there can be a guy who pretends to be a girl. or a girl who just wants some attention. behind a couple profile there might also be a single guy. I thought if you have a single guy profile the changes are high that you really are one. and that you are genuinely looking to meet someone. got it now, guys?" I cannot see what the OP has said wrong !! And I am a single guy. She was pointing out that it's mostly single guys whinging about not getting meets so she is surprised when they don't turn up for one. !!! Well that's how I read it. Obviously others did not | |||

"If I ever secured a 'date' to meet I'd be there. Trying to wade through the fakes is getting tiresome, I see so many negative comments about single guys but my god the so called single women profiles that turn out to be fake is unreal. I trust no one on here now and treat them all as fake until proven otherwise. There has to be a better vetting system than the one in place now. " Gut instinct - nothing's more reliable | |||
