I am wondering the same thing. It's so demoralising. I could understand a simple "No thanks" but 99/100 messages I send are either unread or read and ignored. I get it that people are inundated but I only message people who say they are looking for what I can offer. I am clearly just an ugly fucker 😭

Do not take it personally.

There are tonnes of single men and far less women or even couples.

This gives the women a very uneven view of their power in here that does not really match the real social world and

they don't need to acknowledge or reply to your messages.

There are a lot of rude people on here too.

It's not you but them.

Try going to sober socials or clubs if you want to.

It's different that way.

Well! apart from the obvious that men out number females and couples about 100 to 1, for a start its not a "Fuck site" most ladies reading that opening line will immediately ignore any approach, and as often repeatedly said on forums " no reply means not interested"

I guess you don't realise OP how many messages some women receive in a day!

No-one asks you to send them a message and no-one owes you anything one here.

Do you reply to every leaflet that comes through your letterbox or every spam email you receive to say no thanks???

Nobody owes anyone a reply on here at all. Just because you message someone does not mean you are entitled to a reply by any manner or means.

If someone reads your message and does not reply, take that as they are not interested and move on. The "common decency/politeness" arguement doesn't slide here either as most profiles will likely be drowning in similar messages. The time it would take to reply to all those is ridiculous so most chose not to. Posts like this dont help your case either.

Additionally, your profile is very limited in terms of content with very basic descriptions of what you are offering/looking for in your bio.

Not only that, but your main title suggests you are attached and after "discrete" fun. This reads like you are in a relationship and trying to keep this as a secret from a partner. Thats a major red flag immediately for a LOT of people.

If this site is making you feel negatively about yourself, it would probably be best to not engage with it to protect your mental health.

Are single guys hurting you?

If they bother you, filters exist. Turn off messages from guys if you don't want to see guys.

Plenty of guys do well here, and they're welcome in plenty of dynamics - including with couples, including in a more traditional context.

I'd rather rid the site of couples who want guys to go away, personally - they're much worse for Fab.

Tbf we had a couple profile and got 100+ messages a day - i imagine its much worse for established fab women and couples.

I reach out to maybe 5 profiles a day and get limited replies. Usually none, but the odd one comes back and ive had a fair few meets.

Here's a post from the Fab FAQ page.

There are too many rude people on here who don't reply to my messages!

It's not rude not to reply.

Some ladies and couples get hundreds of messages a day so it simply isn't possible for them to reply to everyone. If you don't get a response, you should assume they aren't interested. If you're getting a lot of "no-replies" then you should consider your profile and the messages you send. Are they giving the right message? Are you standing out from the thousands of other guys on here?

It's worth reading the FAQ, when new..

OP - it's essential that you look after your wellbeing - so, if you're finding lack of responses affecting you, consider taking a restful break.

Most people are not mutually compatible with most other people. This, most initial messages don't result in good relationships and sex. And, for the reasons in the advice from the FAQ above, people will not generally get physical replies.

It's good to be using the forum, as you can potentially reduce your sense of isolation, etc. Consider going to Fab socials and getting to visit clubs.

I have been a single guy in here and also have a couples page now so have seen it from both angles.

Best advice I can give is be yourself and be patient. You need to put a bit more detail on your profile and have a lot of respect for other people.

I have been very lucky I think it took me a little while but I just sent messages with a bit of context to what they are looking for if you match. It is a swinging site not a “sex site” so don’t focus on the sex side. Be a person. Talk about normal stuff too.

I also think the best advice I can give is go to a club. I had a couple of meets outwith that but everything changed when I went to a club.

It is true. I’ve seen it from a couples page and the messages you get is mad.

I won’t sugar coat it, it is hard for a single man in here but you really do need to be patient and be yourself.

I've sent quite a few messages out and get minimal to nothing back even with all my messages being respectful.

Everyone has a type and I know I'm not for everyone.

Never take it personally.

Just respond respectfully and move on.

Ladies and couples get so many messages and loads of griefy replies so not surprising they don't reply to a lot.

Mostly decent people with a common interest

OP, so many people on this thread have given you some great advice. The odds are stacked against you: there are far more singleton men trawling this site than women (and couples). Your message will be one of hundreds in their inbox and most women typically look at the profile first before even opening the message, if at all.

How do you feel that your profile stands out compared to your peers? What is unique about you or your profile that will pique the interest of the women you are messaging...? In essence you really need to polish up that profile.

You have every right to be on here just like anyone else. This isn't solely a swingers site - it's an 'anything' site because not everyone is looking for the same thing or the same outcomes. However...

...how you conduct yourself on here is important; self loathing, negativity, unsavoury status updates and (perhaps) you being attached won't do you any favours or improve your odds. If you are frustrated it's understandable (I would be too) but don't feel entitled either.

Whatever you decide - best of luck.

"I only get the occasional message but I always take the trouble to reply. Even if the person whe sent it is not the type of person I am looking for."

Yes it’s practical for the occasional message but multiply that by 400 and see if you’d have the same approach.

Women in particular receive hundreds of messages, some of which barely extend to a full sentence. There is no obligation for people to respond to messages. They obviously have their reasons to respond or not. If you don’t get a response just move on.

Hey OP, don't take it personally and please try to not let it get you down. This is just how it is on Fab.

I look at it like this, dozen of companies but their adverts through my letterbox, I didn't ask them to but buy having a letterbox I'm saying to the world that they can post stuff to me; I never respond to the adverts, it's not personal, I just don't want my roof insulation or new widows or a new drill or...

There is always hope though OP, it my take a while but you will eventually find someone you gel with and get to meet

Plus, Fab is just for fun and shouldn't be taken too seriously; if you're needing company or feeling lonely then reach out to friends or even a helpline.

I hope that it all works out for you - happy to chat if you want.

"I only get the occasional message but I always take the trouble to reply. Even if the person whe sent it is not the type of person I am looking for."

To be completely fair,single men do not receive anything like the volume of messages that women and couples do.

Unless you've experienced both sides then it's impossible to imagine.

Some of the messages are very gnarly and not likely to encourage any woman to want to meet.

I think it's would be good for men to learn from that and actually talk and give information in their profiles and messages that could open done channels if communication.

I'm not so sure that it will happen though.

I'm pretty easy and relaxed and happy to just chat with no further expectations,as sone people here could testify.

I like a chat.

Incorrect.

The accusation came from the sense of uncanny valley, words being used slightly wrong, alongside overinflated posturing that comes along with prolonged AI use. The final straw of my suspicion - the only thing I mentioned by name - was cadence. Cadence does not mean grammar. I was specifically thinking of the "it's not x, it's y" formulation.

As a stickler for grammar myself, I would not criticise someone for good grammar. To the extent that good grammar contributes to a suspicion of LLM use, it's a combination of good grammar with other factors.

"I reply to all but anything threw the door

but do you fit what they are looking for? If you did, you would have got a reply, surely.

And please read site's FAQs, it clearly states there that no reply is a reply and no, it's not rude not to reply. Also, an example: I got a message from someone who did not read my profile, and pointed them back to my bio. I normally block after that, to prevent any begging or abuse, but I didn't this time. Sadly, got a very immature reply to say they were only "trying to be friendly", they called me "chubby" (at least it wasn't "fat and ugly") and stated they were astonished how much power "chubby" people have on this site. That only reinforced my previous conviction to block anyone who messages me without reading my profile.

Would it really make you feel better, OP, if you get "no, thanks" replies followed by a block?

Unfortunately, the way the site works means that women can't do that. We get too many messages, it attracts too much abuse.

Manners aren't just following a strict set of rules. Manners also entails understanding the position of others.

You'll learn, or you won't. Just like everyone else who makes this complaint.
