Dating sites VS FAB

By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

Why do you suppose it is that as a single man I have lots and lots of joy on dating sites but absolutely none on FAB.

I know how to talk to people and I have emotional intelligence. I explain within two sentences on the dating sites that I'm looking for casual sex only and I get hunted. Rather than on here I have to hunt and only end up getting my time wasted.

Weird..as this is supposedly the site where the casual sex happens and the other is for dating. The one person I met on here was lovely - but she ignored me on FAB but actually contacted me first on the dating app! Breaking her own rule of not sending the first message. She says there is nothing wrong with my profile and doesn't know why I

Perhaps because there are more men than women on here, and more women than men on dating sites.

Women and coupes on here aren't into dating and are more discerning in that they are looking for swingers, not serial fucks? Its about the lifestyle?

Competition is fierce on here, you have 1 veri but haven't displayed it, single ladies and couples hold all the cards! Ratio of men is very high! You have to become exceptional to start getting much notice on here, maybe try a swingers club or social.

I keep my veri private sometimes but not always. I the dating site ratio is equally high from what I've seen from my friends inboxes on both sites.

Personally I think it's more you are expected to chat more on dating sites regardless of whether it's one night stands, and regular casual sex or a girlfriend.

I'm looking for regular casual stuff with people whose company I enjoy. I can't be arsed with a club yet if I'm honest. Maybe when I've found a woman who would also like to go, it's not something I want to do alone. Not out of fear.. I I'd like to experience their excitement as well as my own on the first time.

ok but if you don't invest in this lifestyle you wont get any reward and you probly post another thread moaning, this swinging is a community.

Got to agree with this ... if you can't be parsed, what does that say about you? I think people can read between the lines and see who is really intent on dipping then maybe diving into the lifestyle and who thinks its a sex site ....

I joined a dating app and within 3 days I had a woman contacting me and when I told her that I was just after fun, she was up for that even though it's not what she normally does! As opposed to on here, contacting females/couples and just getting deleted!

We do play with single guys so we are not knocking them but some of the single guys on here are not swingers they are just looking for sex. Quite a few that contact us are happy to meet up with MrsH but are a bit freaked out that MrH likes to watch. That is not having a go at the OP just our opinion of a lot of the singles on the sight at the moment.

Simple really and highlights the difference in attitude to sex between men and women.

Fab is essentially a simple sex site. Uncomplicated, no strings simple sex - or it should be. There are various profiles where the lines are blurred but these do tend to be from the single women and some of the couples and the couples profiles that exhibit these traits I would assume are 'managed' by the women. We have all seen them, the ones where the posts are more appropriate for Facebook and scream give men attention as opposed to fuck me.

No strings gratification of sexual urges is nearly every mans dreams. However, for the most part, women require more 'connection' - this is mainly down to good old Mother Nature and evolution.

Our nature is reflected in dating sites v fab.

I'm getting quite a few meets from a game app. Not gonna say the app lol, but it's just a game nowt to do with dating. Put it this way the girls aren't backward in coming forward.

Literally just finished arrangements for a sex meet Wednesday with a fit girl I didn't know existed a few hours ago.

Fab is ok though. The swipe left and right type stuff will leave Fab standing within a few years if they don't keep on top of modernising.

Nah, I like the social element of this site. I think a lot of people forget that while they are desperately swiping with one hand while wanking with the other.

Dating sites encourage face pics. And do not allow dick pics. Fabs allows dick pics and so forth and men hide their face for discretion.

Ladies seem to prefer faces to cocks.

That game I go on has my face pic only and I'm beating them off with a stick. It goes from game to kik, and my kik now is pure filth. And I don't think I'm particularly good looking or anything.

This is why men are not smarter than women.

A woman finds a site with lots of hot guys. She keeps quiet and fucks all the hot guys.

A man finds a site with lots of hot girls. He will tell all his friends and post in a public forum about that site before fucking all the hot girls.

Your perceptions are very wrong. Swinging involves a lot more than sex, sex is the icing on the cake from meeting liberated people, that you can connect with mentally and physically.

Perhaps, for some, but the primary focus is sex. Some like the connection and social elements as well. But it's about sex. Talking? Yes, bit of weather and politics then sex.

Sex first, other stuff is an add on.

Yes, it's a marketplace and as such supply and demand affect 'pricing' and expectations.

Doesn't necessarily differ as such. But sex, for the men especially is the big draw on fab.

How many of your friends from other sites are into the group sex scenario? I would guess not many and the ones that are are probably on here too...And that's before bringing the fet/kink fans into the mix. Fab can be as deep as the ocean or as shallow as a puddle...The choice is yours.

Exactly this. I had some lovely dates on dating websites but realised I am not that kind of guy so let it go. If you could just find a website where you could meet people of the opposite sex to go for meals etc. with and not have commitment that would be great.

Women happily join a dating site,tell all their friends and have sex with someone they just had a drink with. Women don't join swinging sites because they don't want anyone to know they are looking for sex,because of the stigma attached to swingers.
