Any guys(girls too maybe) on here,on the verge of giving up? Maybe been on the site for a year or so,or years and getting nowhere and come to the conclusion that you just ain't going to get lucky. How long will you keep trying?

One here for a year or so...so during a major pandemic and lock downs then? What did you expect?

Give it time for things to normalise again, let people come out of their shells, maybe go to a social or club night

"Have you tried clubs? Seems to be the way to progress on here "

Errrm, look at the OP's location - they're in Inverness in Northern Scotland.

I worked near there in 2016, and the nearest clubs then were 4 hours away in Glasgow or Edinburgh. Nowadays, it's only Glasgow, with the nearest South of that being in Newcastle.

Inverness wasn't awash with FAB users either. Nearest meets then in 2016 were in Perth, 2.5 hours away by public transport, with last trains or inter-city coaches north at around 7pm.

Location is everything on the Highlands!

you joined in the middle of a pandemic that has inflated the amount of men on the site it was hard for guys before the pandemic and its alot harder now ... men will always have this problem for as long as the out number women by a zillion to one ..

so being a guy on a very overloaded with guys site and thats even before all the real stuff starts like who attracted to you who like your personality wise and on and on it goes ... by far the best way for you to make a mark on fab is to get known at clubs make yourself known and then get some real meets veris and that will start the interest from others.

I would say that things are just as bad now as before COVID. I reckon meets are pretty much back to normal and fab is as useless at getting a meet as it's ever been.

You could always ask for advice on your profile as that's the primary way of selling yourself on here, a bad one generally means you'll get nowhere fast.

I've tried various versions of the profile. Doesn't matter how you sell yourself,if you don't have whatever it is that the ladies are looking for,you've no chance.

But no 2 ladies are looking for the same thing as in the guy, the meet, the scenario. Theres room for everyone. Its unfair to blame "the wanted ones" for how you deal with rejection. Afterall there is no "wanted ones" group of guys here to blame.

But you DO need to give yourself the best possible chance.

In my mind, anyone who couldn't be bothered to put any effort into their profile, has a greater chance of being uninspiring in bed. Though I appreciate that's a very sweeping statement.

I've thought now and then to give the site up due to the sheer amount of effort I have to put in compared to what I get out if it

But every now and then you meet some real sparkly diamonds that make it all worthwhile.

I've no intention of giving up. It's all about finding a balance.

You have to make an effort in everything you do including pics, bio, messages and forum interaction.

Some people take this to the extreme though and are guilty of trying too hard in all of the above and that often backfires.

For example, being overly complimentary can be as much of a turn off as not complimenting at all.

Find that balance in your expectations as well and throw in a healthy dose of patience and it will happen organically.

Without being rude your not giving enough away to get them interested

I know I'm not alone in that I always read a profile before opening a message & well yours just tells me nothing, I know it says you're trying to be discrete but you've said yourself it's not getting any interest, your profile is your shop window you need to sell yourself, make yourself stand out from others in your area etc

Here and There

I’m not thinking of giving up. I don’t meet through Fab, I’m only really here for the forums and to keep up with friends. I really enjoy the bits I use so no plans to leave.

If you’re not enjoying it anymore, or if it’s making you frustrated then you should take a break or leave. Definitely the right choice. Good luck OP.

Don’t ever give up. You have to keep going. Yes no one likes to send a hundred emails to get only one back but then that one could make all the difference.

You get out what you put in. If people don’t make the effort then you can expect zero return.

Read profiles, construct proper messages. Don’t cut and paste. They stand out a mile away. Most of all don’t just expect. Be relaxed and it will happen.

"Any guys(girls too maybe) on here,on the verge of giving up? Maybe been on the site for a year or so,or years and getting nowhere and come to the conclusion that you just ain't going to get lucky. How long will you keep trying?"

Your last veri is from 4 years ago...so it's a lot longer than a year.

Now we don't meet single guys but I can tell you this much, you get out of the site what you put in. Your profile is non existent, you have no public photos and it all comes across as minimal effort.

Facts are, Fab is over populated with single guys. Something like 75% to 80% of the site seems to be single guys now and we're also still in a pandemic.

Fabs a facilitator for meets, not the only way to meet. You get out of it what you put in.

I'd suggest trying socials or clubs but lets be honest, clubs and socials will limit single guys as well.

If you're not willing to do everything you can to stand out, you wont stand out. For every woman you message there might be 400 other accounts messaging them as well.

There's no quick fix, no easy solution and no guarantee's to get meets. Either put in maximum effort or sit on the side lines forever.

"

If there is one statement on Fab I cannot stand it's the "you get out what you put in". It never seems to be single men who say it. Always seems to be single ladies and couples coming away with it. Trust me, things are not equal here, for most men around here they can put everything in and get absolutely nothing out.

It can be demoralising leaving many questioning themselves and ,I don't mean just questioning whether they should be here it not I mean questioning what's wrong with them that nobody finds them attractive enough to meet. It can be quite a brutal place for many men no matter what they put in.

I've certainly changed my approach. Unsurprisingly I've realised that married 61 year old men aren't the top of couples lists so I'm now just looking for a bit of horny chat with anyone who is interested. If it leads to a friendship that leads to something else then great, if not then so be it, it's not the end of the world.

Society is a lot more narcassistic then it was. Swinging used to be about fun and debauchery and linked more with the fetish crowd. Now it's mainstream and trendy, now you got to be gym fit, it's about quality over quantity. Especially if under 30.

Most people under 30 I find I'd sooner chat to a brick wall. Constantly on phone, lack basic manners and courtesy.

I completely agree I came into this scene as I thought is considered more accepting and inclusive something that society lacks these days due to narcissism, sense of entitlement and basic disassociation from reality but unfortunately I see similar problems here. But I won't give up just alter my strategy accordingly. Each tool is useful and maybe this site is more useful for keeping in touch with people rather than actually meeting and clubs would be a far better option on that front.

Facts are, Fab is over populated with single guys. Something like 75% to 80% of the site seems to be single guys now and we're also still in a pandemic.

Fabs a facilitator for meets, not the only way to meet. You get out of it what you put in.

I'd suggest trying socials or clubs but lets be honest, clubs and socials will limit single guys as well.

If you're not willing to do everything you can to stand out, you wont stand out. For every woman you message there might be 400 other accounts messaging them as well.

There's no quick fix, no easy solution and no guarantee's to get meets. Either put in maximum effort or sit on the side lines forever.

If there is one statement on Fab I cannot stand it's the "you get out what you put in". It never seems to be single men who say it. Always seems to be single ladies and couples coming away with it. Trust me, things are not equal here, for most men around here they can put everything in and get absolutely nothing out.

It can be demoralising leaving many questioning themselves and ,I don't mean just questioning whether they should be here it not I mean questioning what's wrong with them that nobody finds them attractive enough to meet. It can be quite a brutal place for many men no matter what they put in.

Society is a lot more narcassistic then it was. Swinging used to be about fun and debauchery and linked more with the fetish crowd. Now it's mainstream and trendy, now you got to be gym fit, it's about quality over quantity. Especially if under 30.

Most people under 30 I find I'd sooner chat to a brick wall. Constantly on phone, lack basic manners and courtesy.

I completely agree I came into this scene as I thought is considered more accepting and inclusive something that society lacks these days due to narcissism, sense of entitlement and basic disassociation from reality but unfortunately I see similar problems here. But I won't give up just alter my strategy accordingly. Each tool is useful and maybe this site is more useful for keeping in touch with people rather than actually meeting and clubs would be a far better option on that front. "

It probably was 10 years ago. Then you had all the types who would go on Love Island/X Factor join up and it become superficial and narcissistic like it is. Just glad I am not in my 20's now. Most of these people are shallow and have no personality at all.

"Any guys(girls too maybe) on here,on the verge of giving up? Maybe been on the site for a year or so,or years and getting nowhere and come to the conclusion that you just ain't going to get lucky. How long will you keep trying?"

I’d suggest heading to a club, though I know it’s been said before.

There’s a stigma around young black guys I have to overcome and people are usually more welcoming after interacting in person.

I have heard that a lot of people who go to clubs avoid this and other sites as its seen as a "meat market".

So there are probably "two scenes", a internet based one and a real physical one mostly club based. Some people probably do both though.

I struggle to find people I am attracted to sexually which is a pity as there’s so many people I’ve met that I get on with like a house on fire socially.

Most recently I’ve had a poor experience with a cuck couple (jealous husband) which wasn’t enjoyable and a recent social with a lovely girl who seems more preoccupied with who else is on the site.

Tinder is shite & Iv no interest in dating leaving options limited.

I use fab for the forums mostly now

I don't meet most people locally (Wales) as I find most people here sexually boring or chavy, not all just a lot of them.

I can just see clubs been cliquey and people who run them and their friends a false sense of importance.

You might appreciate weird people with some social _kills. But even being a single guy in clubs, I notice the dudes who just lurk all night.

Those are the guys who had the courage to show up in person and pay to get in. There’s any more people like it who just casually sit on the internet. A self improvement advice section here would go a long way.

I do try to use the forums but unfortunately I tend to find that it's not very inclusive, cliquey even. But that may change over time who knows.

Some of em are. We’ve got clubs back in the states that straight up require single guys and couples to buy room time upon entry. Since it costs a ton for yearly membership, people are usually more invested in the lifestyle and being social.

Still got plenty of creepy dudes and couples who just come to watch, but I think it made things more enjoyable.

I have often wondered if there is also some Geographic's to it as well, people more open minded in certain areas then others perhaps. Very few clubs in Wales. Does that mean people less open to idea of it?

There’s some of those people, yeah. But unless you’ve got hundreds of messages, a few seconds long conversation and a few pics back and forth never hurts.

Socially awkward people can be fun, creepers not so much.

When you say North, do you mean North North like you, or mid North as in Leeds?

South, London, home counties yes, doubt there is little in somewhere like Rye or in West Devon. Nothing in mid Wales but sheep.

"I've certainly changed my approach. Unsurprisingly I've realised that married 61 year old men aren't the top of couples lists so I'm now just looking for a bit of horny chat with anyone who is interested. If it leads to a friendship that leads to something else then great, if not then so be it, it's not the end of the world."

Same here only I'm even older but I have had some lovely chats with people. I did even arrange a meet with a couple but it was just as the pandemic was kicking off so we both decided to cancel to be on the safe side. They have left the site now so can't pick up where we left off regrettably but I'm not giving up...

Don’t see an issue with that. If I went with one of my regulars to a club, they’d probably just want me to use it. Some people are just there for the fantasy.

While Newcastle has some lovely clubs. If you’re not used to the crowds that frequent em, the local high end clubs can be nice too. Just strike up an innocent conversation with and couples who seem to be looking around.

Apparently people are nicer the more north you go. Only been as far as Whitby but hope to visit more north at some point for holiday. Problem is, rural areas are shit for kink and I guess people will have to travel further for clubs.

I’d concede that. Y’all would probably fit in more than I do up here, being a couple and all. If I find success, checking out a few clubs and being social will definitely pay off. I’d suggest sticking to Hull and Leeds for clubs, can’t speak on Manchester.

While Newcastle has some lovely clubs. If you’re not used to the crowds that frequent em, the local high end clubs can be nice too. Just strike up an innocent conversation with and couples who seem to be looking around.

Apparently people are nicer the more north you go. Only been as far as Whitby but hope to visit more north at some point for holiday. Problem is, rural areas are shit for kink and I guess people will have to travel further for clubs.

I’d concede that. Y’all would probably fit in more than I do up here, being a couple and all. If I find success, checking out a few clubs and being social will definitely pay off. I’d suggest sticking to Hull and Leeds for clubs, can’t speak on Manchester. "

Wales has charms but given its the only club, I'd be conscious about running into someone I knew. After that its Bristol, Gloucester or Swindon I think.

Oh that’s no concern, after ya get over the initial shock. If you find people attractive and think both parties can keep a secret, go crazy.

Most clubs have no camera rules. Being recorded, seeing my boss or meeting a member of the media who knew me was what always scared me. Never happened and I’m thankful.

Went to a fetish club years ago, they had a dark room and things went on. Seeing someone I knew (and thought odious) getting blown off didn't really appeal.

Some good advise given by many, maybe something to consider is taking time out as opposed to deleting account!

Also, there are a lot of great clubs where you’ll find plenty cock and pussy on tap.

Give it time, don’t rush and or be put of by quiet spells, knowing we’re still trying to get passed Covid-19 pandemic, etc.

We were also struggling as a couple here. Too many fakes, pics collecter and time waisters. So Most meets are clubs only now. Op try clubs/parties (check club section or organised events in forum) near you and you have more chances of meeting someone and then keeping in touch with them here.

Before you give up, OP, rather than thinking of it as 'How long will you keep trying' reframe it as 'How should I change my approach'

You are probably an interesting, fun and gorgeous guy.....you should showcase yourself

The old adage of 'get out what you put in' is definitely true on here, I have a terribly boring profile to 99% of the people I am old. . . . no mature I should say and a single male of which there is loads of competition, but every so often there are some real gems.

I have two or three friends courtesy of fab, its not for everybody but thats life look for the 1% that just might be for you.

Just my pennies worth, enjoy the site be well mannered, respectful when rejected and enjoy the forums, its a great place to hang out for some of your time.

I have certainly thought about quitting Fab, as I very definitely don't get out what I put in.

However, then I'd *definitely* never get anywhere, rather than almost certainly never getting anywhere, so here I am. A 0.0000001% chance is better than a 0.0000000% chance.

"you joined in the middle of a pandemic that has inflated the amount of men on the site it was hard for guys before the pandemic and its alot harder now ... men will always have this problem for as long as the out number women by a zillion to one ..

so being a guy on a very overloaded with guys site and thats even before all the real stuff starts like who attracted to you who like your personality wise and on and on it goes ... by far the best way for you to make a mark on fab is to get known at clubs make yourself known and then get some real meets veris and that will start the interest from others."

I have seen multiple comments you’ve made in the forum you’re very sensible and straight to the point that’s a very nice quality I like that about you.

I tried looking at your profile…. I would be interested in seeing your summary and maybe some of your verifications. It hidden at the moment

I'd say try and make it to a Club venue (mentioned on Fabs) and see if you can make a connection there...Sometimes easier to showcase yourself in person.

Even in London it can be v hard for a single guy to get noticed as there is allot of us all messaging the same pool of ladies, couples ect..

Once you have had a really good experience via fabs, the wait will be more than worth it hopefully. Good luck.

I was speaking to a few ladies I know who are not on fab why they left and they said that they got fed up with the constant dick pics with opening messages. So I came to a conclusion but it’s just a theory, if people stopped sending dick pics with opening messages then we would have more women on the site redressing the balance slightly allowing women to be less overwhelmed. But as I can’t prove it it’s only my conjecture

Thats because swinging is a meat factory now. It's like if Love Island and Tinder had a bastard child. When I first went out, we had a conversation about interesting subjects all night, the last time the people were shallow, pretentious and dull and that's if they could put their phone down.

At 61 and married (albeit honest) I suspect I'm too old for this game and I don't have the enthusiasm to put a lot of effort it to be regularly rejected. I have chatted with some nice people and would like to make friends with people, even if just for a chat and the occasional tribute. If there are any over 50s who just want a chat, sexual or not, then feel free. Kik is _ickdasterdly51 (but I'm not bi so don't waste you time asking me if I want my cock sucked!).

I used to go to clubs, but they were so packed with single males it all seemed pointless. Lurking online is less awful than trying to strike up a conversation and you just get actively ignored.

So you take the hint and sit around looking for someone else to talk to, but they aren't interested.

So you then end up sitting alone. Standard creepy male behaviour. Don't imagine that all men WANT to act like that. Some clubs are so cliquey that going there is almost impossible without being ignored.

"You get out what you put in" is sometimes a stupid and pointless comment. Competition erases that possibility.

I'm sure other people have different experiences.

You make your own luck on fab . Plenty of guys do well but put effort in with socials and club events . No good if you just write a profile put a few pics up and send a few messages.

Mostly for men on fab you have to expect fuck all! Anything that does happen is a bonus.

Everyday i see several status updates looking for good looking, fit, well hung males. Any man fitting this description must do ok!? Lol. I know that isnt me so think whats the point in trying as always a better offer. Im not bitching about it, just its fact and just stay to be nosey and read the forums and perhaps one day there may be someone you click with.

That's really disappointing...

Sigh. I have pointed out that I did more than that. I am trying again but I am prepared to accept that there may be too many other men.

Honestly, if a couple say "it's tough and you may never get anywhere" then I can accept that. However, if you only ever say "you get out what you put in" as if life is bizarrely fair, then it comes across as unrealistic. If you want to sound tough, acknowledge there are alot of single men that might dilute people's effort through sheer quantity and stop implying that everyone who is unsuccessful is lazy. It's gasslighting and pointless.

Been here 2 months now.

Got a few Veris and met quite a few people.

But that's because I got up, went to a Club or 3 and spoke to people.

Yeah, it's difficult if you're reliant on messaging contacts owing to location and clicking that way as the ladies/couples will get lots of messages a day..

Keep at it, be yourself, get yourself to a social (most have plenty of notice so you can organise travel/hotels) or speak to people at a club (you don't have to play) and you'll be fine
