Men against social meets

Jump to newest
 

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

Since I've been using the forums, I've noticed some men complain about women or couples requiring a social meet prior to sex, on the basis that this is not a dating site. This is not something we have personally come across, as we have specifically sought out men who share our more 'friendship' based approach to swinging. And besides, when meet a man for a social it always develops to sex anyway, and preferably the same night!

However, something was said to me on the forums that made me wonder if some men would refuse to meet if a social was required. I wondered why that was. Surely if there is a choice between an hour or so in the pub followed by a high chance of sex, or staying at home with zero chance of sex, it would be more productive to turn the charm on a put a bit of effort towards having some fun. Are there any women or couples who have been rejected because a social was requested first? What do the guys think?

Because of the potential to be rejected without seeing any boobs maybe?

I have no issue meeting to see if there is an attraction and then go their separate ways if there is not. Or have sex if there is.

I have no appetite for lunches or day out. I know people in this scene who thrive on socials with zero intent of ever having sexual meets, they just love the free lunches and attention. They broadcast to all that they are so popular but, each to their own

Yes. I've been contacted by men who refused to meet me somewhere in public first.

They all tried to change my mind.

It's not just men that won't do socials ....

We wouldn't dream of it either .

Many the time we have turned people down on the basis that there has to be a social first .

I actually don't like meeting strangers odd as it sounds. I like to make friends even just messaging. We want quality over quantity and men who will meet in a club get pushed up the list! To us this is about lifestyle friendship and fun... Who else goes on a night out with friends meal drinks then all end up in bed together.. bonus!

meeting for a social isn't even dating, don't know why guys think that. dating is meeting with a prior idea that you might form a committed relationship with each other, used to be anyway - nowadays seems everyone just goes along with shit to get what they want out of that person.

it's usually for our safety and to check the person out before committing to sex with them. more guys need to get that.

I'm happy to have a social/public meet first. If things progress great if not so be it. There has to be an attraction both physically and mentally. I've been told I look better in the flesh than my pics so it works for me.

On my very first profile I met a guy for a social, we got on great on here but in person I wasn't attracted to him.

I can't engage in sexual activity unless I'm attracted to the other person.

That is so cool, and is exactly why we chose this lifestyle - nothing better than having great friends that you can shag! Even better to have normal drinks party with friends and end up having sex. Mmm

I would never just meet for sex. I dont need lunch buying, hell i brought my own coffee at the last one...

I want to meet people whose company i enjoy as well as potentially a sexual relationship.

In my couples profile i follow the same rules. If i cant enjoy talking with you i am not going to enjoy sex with you

That's crazy. Those guys probably spent the night in masterbating, when they could have had a meet with likely fun after!

I wonder why a guy who doesn't want to meet socially first is expected to change his way of meeting? Surely they just choose to meet in a different way to those that prefer a social. I see it as just another filter. I won't meet for a purely social meet. I just don't have the time.

its all horses for courses isn't it...

for me there has to be a bit of an attraction before I can jump into bed with someone so I would prefer to have a social first and the best place to have one is usually a pub or a café...but although such meets usually result in sex there have been a couple of occasions when I have said 'sorry not for me' and walked away...

maybe if I was single instead of a single mum I would be less inclined to spend my time drinking coffee with strangers, and be more inclined to dragging them back to mine for a quickie

The trouble with a social is that the wife or girlfriend might get to hear you are in the pub with a strange woman/couple and not where you said you'd be

Its entirely dependant on how the individual or individuals feel is appropriate at the time. My last two meets were just fuck and go, which was fine. But my preference is toward a social first.

Each to there own, is it right for any party to do something there uncomfortable with?

Such a mix of people using fab for different reasons, clubbers, lifestylers and some just want to fill a void.

There are enough choices or options available through the Internet that really it's anyone's choice how they choose to behave

No problem on my behalf of a social, find it best for both parties. There has to be something to connect and a spark that makes it go further, also I'm not photogenic so seeing me is better than the pics haha.

Yup.

I figured either they were married and worried about being seen or didn't want to be seen out with a fat woman.

No meet in public first = no meet with me.

The last guy who refused to meet me in public told me as he was well verified I didn't have to be concerned about my safety!

If I'd known others who had met him, maybe, but I didn't know any of the people who had apparently verified him.

I think a lot of men either want sex straight away or are fugly and worry about being rejected. Just keeping it real.....

A social is to see if there is any mutual chemistry before having some fun.....well it is for me anyway

This for me too. Especially about the pic. I want them to see me in person and we can both decide if we still want to fuck.

I meet for just a coffee and a chat then arrange a sex meet if we get on. I've had men say they won't meet for just a social. I don't meet them because we're not compatible.

I like a picnic but weather is awful; aside from that a nice log fire in an old pub. Don't like coffee shops much. Prefer an intimate environment where conversation can flow.

Over all most of the guys I have chatted to and got as far as arranging a meet have been fine with this though I have had the odd few who have not wanted to meet me in public, i put it down to them being ashamed of being seen with me, she's ok for a shag but don't want be seen out with her type of thing

At the end of the day it's their choice as is it mine to refuse to meet them based on this, they maybe happy to fuck anything, I'm not

Well u specifically state this on my profile. It's not really aimed at couples though. I have no problem meeting for a drink but I'm not going for fancy dinners or to cinema etc. I think some single lady's may try to abuse their power on here expecting free meals or whatever and for NSA I don't like the idea of getting too involved especially if they have a husband aswell I think they should do the romantic things. For me it keeps my mindset clear. Some women get very attached easily an seem to confuse this site with match.com I am a 'fucker' not a dater.

Mainly because I'm a single woman and I don't really like the idea of just turning up to some strangers house or hotel room, I like to see them and make sure they are who they said they were and have a chat to see if we get along, I find a thanks but no thanks easier in a public place than in a hotel room alone with somebody

Believe me I'm not after a date, the chances are I wont even speak to you again after we have fucked but I don't think putting my safty first is to much to ask and I also don't see having a drink to see if we want to fuck a date, some people have a wierd idea of what a date is

The next time a lady or couple suggest a social they must pay for all the drinks and food. It's funny they insist on a social but never offer to pay. If someone invites me to dinner I expect them to pay.

The way some people on this site are begging for free coffee , drinks , or to meet at a club . You would think they have shares in Costa , Starbucks , and swing clubs around the UK.....

If socials were called 'pre-fuck drinks' do you think more men would do them?

Because, after all, many times, that's what they can turn out to be. More fool he who declines a social when trudging through Fabland.

I've never had dinner as a social and the vast majority of the time I've bought my own drink. Sometimes I've bought the other person's drink too! On the occasions I haven't bought my own drink, I've always offered to.

I meet in a public place for my safety and to ensure I feel comfortable. I have never begged for anything from anyone on here, particularly not a bloody Pepsi or a coffee and I never will.

Meeting in public is not about being desperate for someone to buy me a cup of coffee.

Often the fuel or travel cost to get to the meet is more than a Pepsi or coffee anyway.

A few women may be spongers but I really object to being lumped in that category too.

But why should you, its your home, why should you just hand your address out to a total stranger on a sex site, could be a nutter just out of jail for assaulting his last meet for all you know, and you've just given him your address

I don't always but my last several socials have led to same night sex.

Sometimes people want to schedule socials in their lunch break or something and arrange a meet for a later date.

Please forgive me ... You are the exception not the rule. When on a social I usually have to buy the first round.... I didn't want coffee nor a drink. I would have been fine meeting at the kebab shop without eating or drinking anything. This is a sex site , not dating site.

"I think any man with any worth wouldn't mind putting a single woman at ease by meeting her in public first

THIS!

Without any bollocks about expecting the woman to buy the guy a drink to prove she's not after a freebie herself!

As if I'd get dressed up and go out to meet someone just to scrounge a free drink "

I know it's laughable

If someone suggests dinner or a fancy hotel there is always the option of saying no.

Women don't have the power to abuse anything on here if they're not given it.

If a guy thinks it's worth the cost of dinner or a hotel to meet a particular woman, that's up to him. He has a choice the same as everyone else.

"If socials were called 'pre-fuck drinks' do you think more men would do them?

Because, after all, many times, that's what they can turn out to be. More fool he who declines a social when trudging through Fabland.

Then I'm a fool.

You're not a 'he'.

Ok....So why is it different for guys then?

Good question "

I just think that guys get really unfair treatment on here. A bit further up _ee viante commented that she didn't want to be lumped with those out for a free meal (or words to that effect) likewise, why should a guy that doesn't want a social be lumped with "guys who just want a quick fuck with the first person that comes along"?

"Im always happy to travel half way for socials

I never expect anything

No sex on a social.

If we decide we like each other they can then come here and shag.

I have no interest in someone who just wants to come straight here

But why should you, its your home, why should you just hand your address out to a total stranger on a sex site, could be a nutter just out of jail for assaulting his last meet for all you know, and you've just given him your address

I think any man with any worth wouldn't mind putting a single woman at ease by meeting her in public first

You can go out by yourself and get bought free drinks anyway, just for chatting to guys who were out as well and they don't even expect sex. I don't expect the drinks, it's just they offer and i say thanks and take it.

No way would I allow a guy just to turn up at my house and have sex without a neutral place meet first. It's less awkward to part ways in a pub if you don't like them in person than ask them to leave your home/hotel room.

If they don't want a social first they're not right for me.

Having a coffee with someone whilst you determine whether you feel comfortable and if you want to fuck someone is not a date.

I'm really glad I'm not dating anyone with the ideas some of the guys on here have about what a date is!

Also, I don't think I am the exception. I think I'm the norm. I think women who expect gifts, dinner and expensive hotels are in the minority.

I don't know what other women do, but I certainly don't go round begging for freebies and giving nothing in return. When we meet a guy for a social, it is always mutually agreed, as opposed to us asking him. He will usually buy a round, and my husband will usually buy a round. If we gonna be really politically correct I guess I should buy a round too. But it first really matter, because later that night we have a fabulous threesome, and everybody goes home happy. The way we do things is not for everybody, but we're having fun, and I certainly don't think the guys we play with feel shortchanged because they had to buy a round of drinks.

I don't do that though.

Socials are for my safety and to give both of us a chance to say 'actually you're not my type' in a neutral setting where the other is less likely to kick off.

I don't think a guy who doesn't want a social wants to fuck anything, I just think he doesn't care if I feel safe and comfortable and that we're not suited to one another.

Have you ever gone down to the village in the valley to visit the little people? Or do you just stay on top of the mountain and look down and spit on people?

Try being a single guy for a few weeks on Fab. Before you say just say no ..... It's not that easy. We don't have 500 messages daily and most messages we send are unread and deleted. So if a couple says meet us socially at the Savoy or Dorchester buy us drinks and if we get on . I might play with you. Many guys will.

Look at the first page of Hot Pics most girls are advertising for party's. Do you know guys are paying to go to these party's and gangbang's?

I'm not beating up on you , but it's hard out here for single guys. Especially if you don't have much discretionary money to spend.

My comment wasn't directed at you btw...i was just musing around something you said that's all. And you're right. If someone doesn't want to meet the way you do then you aren't compatible....but my point is that a lot of the feeling seems to be that the guy is missing out because he doesn't want a social. No he isn't. He just isn't compatible.

And you can go where you want to without having to consider another persons wants or what they want to do for the night.

Don't get why any woman would come online to arrange free drinks off someone, more hassle than it's worth.

I've also paid to go into clubs as a couple even though it would be free for me to go in alone

It's not a problem for me

If I meet a guy and he offers me a drink I'm going to accept, both going to the bar and ordering your own drinks to prove your not after a freebie would be stupid, but I'm equally happy to offer a drink

Sure, many guys will but it's their choice.

It's only hard for guys because they HAVE to get their dicks wet and can't cope with the idea of waiting if it means going without for a bit.

Yes, I get quite a few messages but very few are what I'm looking for. So I say no and I wait for what I want and I go without sex in the meantime.

I've gone months and, on a couple of occasions, years without sex. It didn't kill me and it certainly didn't make me willing to book the Dorchester, even when I could afford it.

Don't want to do something? Don't do it. If you chose to do it because it's a better alternative than not getting sex, man up and admit it's your choice.

As for the majority of the women in Hot Pics offering paid parties, of course they can, they're hot! Guys still have the choice whether to go and some CHOOSE to because they want to meet the hot woman.

I prefer hot men but I'm not going to pay to meet one from here. I've considered escorts before and if I do ever elect to pay, (I can't at the moment because I'm a student), that's the way I'll go.

That's because I have the choice, exactly the same as men have the choice.

If you're going to demand hot meets you have to be incredibly hot yourself, be patient and wait or pay. That goes for women as well as men.

Hot is a commidity.

"Since I've been using the forums, I've noticed some men complain about women or couples requiring a social meet prior to sex, on the basis that this is not a dating site. This is not something we have personally come across, as we have specifically sought out men who share our more 'friendship' based approach to swinging. And besides, when meet a man for a social it always develops to sex anyway, and preferably the same night!

However, something was said to me on the forums that made me wonder if some men would refuse to meet if a social was required. I wondered why that was. Surely if there is a choice between an hour or so in the pub followed by a high chance of sex, or staying at home with zero chance of sex, it would be more productive to turn the charm on a put a bit of effort towards having some fun. Are there any women or couples who have been rejected because a social was requested first? What do the guys think?"

I prefer social meetings in public I have a fab buddy now and we meet people together so much better than just meeting men in private on my own.

Without any bollocks about expecting the woman to buy the guy a drink to prove she's not after a freebie herself!

As if I'd get dressed up and go out to meet someone just to scrounge a free drink

I know it's laughable

And I would imagine most guys would put time and effort into getting ready......

From the comments I read on here, it's almost as though the guys are expected to prove they are good enough.

If the ratio of males to females was the same not so much pressure would be on guys to be performing seals."

That's not the point at all.

We, I, am being accused of wanting to meet for a social in a public place because I'm scrounging for a free drink.

Given the time of getting ready and the time and cost of getting there, why would I bother for a free Pepsi or coffee?

I can stay at home and drink my own coffee or Pepsi more cheaply and easily!

I'm not going to get dressed up and go out just to score a free drink. Plus, as pointed out, regular guys in bars would be just as likely to buy me drinks if that was what I was after.

The day I "abuse my power" and use the offer of potential sex to scrounge a free cup of coffee...well, I don't quite know what I'd do if I ever reached quite such a pathetic point in life.

Y'know I've had socials in the past where I bought the guy a pint and he ended up messing me about and not meeting me. I expect he was just leading me on to get a free pint, right?

I always want a social first. The only time I haven't was with a forum regular when I was local, but that was months after we started chatting!

Someone who refused a social I requested wouldn't get a meet with me.

What other people do is their business tho.

I wouldn't go for dinner with a guy as a first social. Imagine if you didn't fancy him, had nothing in common and he made a noise when he ate (pet hate of mine) you'd possibly have to sit there for an hour or so. No.....a quick coffee is enough time for me to decide if I want to take it further. Either that or I burn my tongue and get the hell outta there!!

And yes I'm more than happy to pay for my own, and his!!!!

Oh and may I just say, that I used to do social meets at my home (stupid I know) and I ended up in a situation I really didn't want to be, ie, I was left practically naked after he basically thought 'I want me a bit of that', thank fuck he left when I told him to, but I didn't meet again for at least 6 months, hence why I meet in public now. If men don't get it? Then more fools them!

No social only first meets for us and we have turned down loads of people who wanted a social first, for us you never know how you will click when you play anyway, so if there is an attraction, get on and play....

So as soon as a woman says the word social they think.....oh here we go another princess out for what she can get

When in reality we just want a flipping drink and chat to see if we like you

A social meet even if just for a coffee somewhere will soon filter out whether or not there's any attraction there on both sides. I've found them to be good ice breakers

I always request a social meet first, this is to check we are who we are and that there is some attraction chemistry. I have been on more than one social meet where the other person does not reflect their pics and swiftly left. I'm more than happy to pay for both our drinks however find that their her person won't let me

Always meet for a social first unless logistics make it difficult. In those cases we'd have gotten to know each other via text & the understanding is already in place that if we don't click it goes no further.

I never ask for a social meet,it's the men who do. If I don't feel any attraction to them from chatting on here I don't go any further. It's worked ok for me so far with only a couple of small shocks that were at the sex stage. I will have a drink before sex but I prefer to be alone with my men.

I prefer to meet for socials first with no expectations of going further just so either party can bail out if they want to. Photos on here aren't always what they seem to be and you can't beat meeting in the flesh and gauging whether they are nice people. I don't enjoy fuck and go but I'm not looking for anything more than nsa either. Friends with benefits is better.

"meeting for a social isn't even dating, don't know why guys think that. dating is meeting with a prior idea that you might form a committed relationship with each other, used to be anyway - nowadays seems everyone just goes along with shit to get what they want out of that person.

it's usually for our safety and to check the person out before committing to sex with them. more guys need to get that.

"I just like to meet in public for a drink and a chat

Mainly because I'm a single woman and I don't really like the idea of just turning up to some strangers house or hotel room, I like to see them and make sure they are who they said they were and have a chat to see if we get along, I find a thanks but no thanks easier in a public place than in a hotel room alone with somebody

Believe me I'm not after a date, the chances are I wont even speak to you again after we have fucked but I don't think putting my safty first is to much to ask and I also don't see having a drink to see if we want to fuck a date, some people have a wierd idea of what a date is "

Because, after all, many times, that's what they can turn out to be. More fool he who declines a social when trudging through Fabland.

If I meet a guy for a drink and we get on I'm going to fuck him that night

"The next time a lady or couple suggest a social they must pay for all the drinks and food. It's funny they insist on a social but never offer to pay. If someone invites me to dinner I expect them to pay.

The way some people on this site are begging for free coffee , drinks , or to meet at a club . You would think they have shares in Costa , Starbucks , and swing clubs around the UK.....

I've never had dinner as a social and the vast majority of the time I've bought my own drink. Sometimes I've bought the other person's drink too! On the occasions I haven't bought my own drink, I've always offered to.

I meet in a public place for my safety and to ensure I feel comfortable. I have never begged for anything from anyone on here, particularly not a bloody Pepsi or a coffee and I never will.

Meeting in public is not about being desperate for someone to buy me a cup of coffee.

Often the fuel or travel cost to get to the meet is more than a Pepsi or coffee anyway.

A few women may be spongers but I really object to being lumped in that category too."

Avoid them then.....either something wrong with them.....or married and arranging a potential second meet would be too difficult?

Tho as the OP said....I can only think of two social meets, in five n a half years on here, that hasn't turned to something more on the first meet. And that was down to me both times!

After loads of time waster never turning up at ours we ask for socials we never expect anyone to pay for our drinks - but we travel 1/2 ways to meet in the middle or near us.

If we click its fun the same night; but many single guys refuse to do a social - tough.

As some one said if they like staying at home staring at a puter screen great for them and all the better for the real guys, girls and couples who make an effort ...

"

Also, I don't think I am the exception. I think I'm the norm. I think women who expect gifts, dinner and expensive hotels are in the minority.

I agree i also think these women are in the minority

You see such demands on a few profiles but you see a hell of a lot more without

I've met many times and paid for the room myself

I used to meet a guy who was unemployed and I'd pay for everything when we met

I've also paid to go into clubs as a couple even though it would be free for me to go in alone

It's not a problem for me

If I meet a guy and he offers me a drink I'm going to accept, both going to the bar and ordering your own drinks to prove your not after a freebie would be stupid, but I'm equally happy to offer a drink

If guys really think the majority of women here are free loaders I have to wonder why they are here "

I would say the vast majority of our conversations with single guys come to a premature end due to them not willing to meet for a social, prior to committing to any kind of play. Doesn't effect us overly much, just use it as a kind of 'arrogance filter'.

Just as not all women on here are dick head nor are all men and it is possible for two adult after they have decided its not going any further to have another drink or two together

I know it's possible because I've done it

If he wasn't the type of guy who could take a rejection and still have a drink them he's free to leave

It wouldn't bother me if a guy turned me down, I wouldn't flounce out I'd still have a drink

My reasons are as many have said for a neutral place to check they are not mad max and that you have a mutual attraction. I would never insist on him buying me drinks and if a bite to eat is suggested that's just a pleasant way of relaxing but would definitely not expect him to pay.

If there is a spark happy to move to next level same day which by the sounds on here most genuine ladies would do too

I met a guy once who even though I said it was a drink and see how it goes still booked a hotel room

When I turned him down he insisted I gave him the money back for the room because I was a time waster

I refused basically because I never told him I would shag him and I never said to book a room so why should I?

When I left he followed me out the pub and pinned me up against the wall demanding his money, which I gave him because basically a few quid for a room wasn't worth getting beat up for

I don't think all men are like that though just because I met Alice the goons evil twin

I met a guy once who even though I said it was a drink and see how it goes still booked a hotel room

When I turned him down he insisted I gave him the money back for the room because I was a time waster

I refused basically because I never told him I would shag him and I never said to book a room so why should I?

When I left he followed me out the pub and pinned me up against the wall demanding his money, which I gave him because basically a few quid for a room wasn't worth getting beat up for

I don't think all men are like that though just because I met Alice the goons evil twin "

Thats awful bet you were scared naughty did you report him

"My next social meet I'm showing up late and there better be a pint or venti mocha latte when I arrive... If not I know the woman or couple is a user

But but but

Surely that makes you a user

No I'll buy the next round if I like you. If I don't like you , I'm out of there , hey at least I got a free latte..

Now how is that different from what women do?

I have nothing to say to that because I genuinely wouldn't do that, I know it's easy for me to say but I have more manner's than to turn up, expect a guy to buy me a drink and shoot as soon as I've d*unk it

At the very least I'd stay and have another drink, which I would insist on buying, if I didn't like him, I'd even stay and have a few drinks so long as he understood it was going any further

You seem to have a very dim _iew of women on here, quite sad really because some of us are decent human beings, honest

yes but by hanging around you might give false hope to the men.

That's why I said so long as he understood it wasn't going any further

Just as not all women on here are dick head nor are all men and it is possible for two adult after they have decided its not going any further to have another drink or two together

I know it's possible because I've done it

If he wasn't the type of guy who could take a rejection and still have a drink them he's free to leave

It wouldn't bother me if a guy turned me down, I wouldn't flounce out I'd still have a drink

Suppose it depends what type of person you are "

see I don't see the point in that why waste your time more unless you are friend zoning them which I doubt. If I met for a social and wasn't happy after 1 drink I would make excuses and leave immediately.

because i dont see it as a waste of time

im out anyway, if i did a runner i'd only go home to sit alone or i could stay as im out anyway and have a drink

but as i said so long as it was understood it was just a drink

we are all different and we do what suits us i guess

oh no nor do i

i only do one off meets so if i dont shag you first meet the chances are its not going to happen

when i say social meet i mean meet in a pub or wherever, have a drink and a chat and if we get along book a hotel or whatever

if ive got ready, arranged to meet someone, spend time drinking and chatting and it obvious we both like each other i want them now not three weeks on wednesday

if i met a guy and he left saying nice to meet you i'll mail you later id take that as a polite no thanks

i just would not go straight to somebodies home or hotel room if i had never met them before

a social meet is how long you make it, some make a night of it then go home, some have a couple of drinks and go for a shag, my idea of a social meet is the later

I'm all for an initial social. As you say its got a better play probability. Moe important;y it gives a chance to assess personality and potential chemistry.

I'm sure most folk perceive men as willing to have sex with anything.

Perhaps I'm the exception to the rule? Single men have standards too, at least some of us do!

Frankly we won't meet for a social only with no chance to play, of course we are happy to meet on a bar and if all into each other go off and play, we don't consider that a social we consider that a meet!

Never ever understood why people would meet for a social only, after all if you meet people, click and don't want to rip each other clothes off, ravish each other and be naughty, right there and then we doubt you would a few days later......

So in conclusion we are happy to meet for a social with the option to play......

I have no objection to meeting socially first and use this as a filter for singles and couples who think this is face book . A lot of guys get accused of being pic collectors who only want photos and nothing else . Unfortunately , there are a lot of couples and single women who have the same attitude to face photos . This isn't tinder . At least a social meet shows some commitment to a possible meet , and if they weren't lying about wanting to see your face , they can see it in the flesh . Whether it is a buyers market or not , their privacy is not more important than mine . I respect theirs , I only require the same . Go on face book if you only want a face pic .

"Well u specifically state this on my profile. It's not really aimed at couples though. I have no problem meeting for a drink but I'm not going for fancy dinners or to cinema etc. I think some single lady's may try to abuse their power on here expecting free meals or whatever and for NSA I don't like the idea of getting too involved especially if they have a husband aswell I think they should do the romantic things. For me it keeps my mindset clear. Some women get very attached easily an seem to confuse this site with match.com I am a 'fucker' not a dater."

I think this is fine if you've got somewhere to go to play but a lot of times neither party can accommodate and I'm not booking a hotel for someone I've never met before as I don't know for sure until I meet them whether I want to shag them so I will always have a social first.

Depends on the situation.

Its not like its a case of get to know each other in a pub/coffe shop and shag each other without speaking.

People do have sofas in thier houses, and kitchens and beds lots of places to actually talk and get to know each other comfortably without wondering if people are listening in.

I tend to keet people fairly far away a lot so im not going to travel ages for a coffee ig we just wanted to talk we can do that on the phone.

If its a cool day out/staying over then traveling isn't an issue and if you dont click doesn't mean you cant part friends.

A lot of the "safety" aspect is over played too.

Im sure everyone has had to sit in a social/work situation with somone they loathe and hasn't had an issue hiding it.

The idea that you're any safer because you've had a chat in a bar only holds true if you've hardly spoke before hand.

Large group socials on the other hand are great decent night out with a big group that i can get behind.

a quandary, could you change my mind?

Social first always, very happy to go to a place the other person will feel at ease.

There has to be an attraction physical and mental.

I don't see a problem with having them at all. The large group socials that are about could be the best way for some.

But as always we are all different and want slightly different things.

"Since I've been using the forums, I've noticed some men complain about women or couples requiring a social meet prior to sex, on the basis that this is not a dating site. This is not something we have personally come across, as we have specifically sought out men who share our more 'friendship' based approach to swinging. And besides, when meet a man for a social it always develops to sex anyway, and preferably the same night!

However, something was said to me on the forums that made me wonder if some men would refuse to meet if a social was required. I wondered why that was. Surely if there is a choice between an hour or so in the pub followed by a high chance of sex, or staying at home with zero chance of sex, it would be more productive to turn the charm on a put a bit of effort towards having some fun. Are there any women or couples who have been rejected because a social was requested first? What do the guys think?

It's not just men that won't do socials ....

We wouldn't dream of it either .

Many the time we have turned people down on the basis that there has to be a social first .

Yea the social we had with you was rubbish. "

Pmsl ... I don't recall a social .... Ok we chatted for a bit first , but if that was a social I shudder to think what a play meet would entail !!!

"The next time a lady or couple suggest a social they must pay for all the drinks and food. It's funny they insist on a social but never offer to pay. If someone invites me to dinner I expect them to pay.

The way some people on this site are begging for free coffee , drinks , or to meet at a club . You would think they have shares in Costa , Starbucks , and swing clubs around the UK.....

do people organize socials for a free cup of coffee? Id just stay at home and put the kettle on i can afford my own cup of coffee"

As a single fem I agree with others in that its all about safery first. Secondly about seeing if we are physically and mentally attracted to each other I don't just fuck anyone. I have offered to pay for drinks and have travelled half / most of the way there sometimes its not about freebies but the above

I actually prefer a social meet first, that way no pressure on either of us.

There is also a very slight chance of just being friends, meeting up now and then for a coffee and a chat.

It does sound like you've had some women who use you for a free night out, and I'm sorry to hear that. However I don't quite understand your rule that the person doing the inviting must do the paying, even with regular friends. In vanilla life whenever I have gone out to dinner or lunch with a girlfriend we have always split the bill irrespective of who suggested getting together. In the swing scene, when we've made arrangements to meet someone, it never really been a case of us inviting him, or him inviting us. It's more been an equal free flowing conversation that results in us agreeing to meet. Modern day etiquette is vague on who should pay with regards to male versus female. Some people still believe in old fashioned chivalry, but for most people the starting point is always fifty fifty. When my husband meets his FB he will buy her dinner before they go to her hotel room for NSA sex. My experience is that the men we meet tends to buy the first round, but if we arrive first then we will get the first round in. We've met a couple of men who have insisted on buying dinner, so we make sure it's on us the next time. But if they have paid for a few extra drinks, it really doesn't matter, because by the end of the night we'll be fucking like rabbits. We did meet a few men prior to using Fab who didn't put their hand in their pocket the entire night. Maybe they had your _iew that we done the inviting so the onus was on us to pay. Or maybe they thought they were there to provide a service for a couple. Who knows, but we thought that was seriously bad manners, and it didn't go any further.

Some people have 'odd' opinions.

I am not an animal, you sniff my ass i sniff yours n we fuck. I want to talk to you whilst looking at your face to see if you are full of sh** beforehand. Personality turns me on and you cant get the real feel for a person via inbox chat.

I understand people not wanting to be seen socialising with the opposite sex locally. My coffee date the other day couldnt grasp i was outside my local shopping centre where a lot of people could know me so no i didnt want a full on snog. A swift kiss goodbye was acceptable but not tongues for 5 minutes

That would put me off meeting him again. It's a good test, seeing how people behave in public.

"My next social meet I'm showing up late and there better be a pint or venti mocha latte when I arrive... If not I know the woman or couple is a user

But but but

Surely that makes you a user

No I'll buy the next round if I like you. If I don't like you , I'm out of there , hey at least I got a free latte..

Now how is that different from what women do?

I have nothing to say to that because I genuinely wouldn't do that, I know it's easy for me to say but I have more manner's than to turn up, expect a guy to buy me a drink and shoot as soon as I've d*unk it

At the very least I'd stay and have another drink, which I would insist on buying, if I didn't like him, I'd even stay and have a few drinks so long as he understood it was going any further

You seem to have a very dim _iew of women on here, quite sad really because some of us are decent human beings, honest

After my last social were Alice the goon showed up after I had ordered a bottle of champagne and appetizers. When I told her to leave .... She could have least offered to pay half the bill

That's why I'm so upset... She knew she misrepresented herself and demanded a social for safety... Safety my ass . She thought I wouldn't be rude and tell her to leave. So by insisting on the social, she thought she could get a free meal....

why did you order champagne? Sounds like your just bad at chosing meets

It's slim pickings in NYC, plus I'm a classy guy . You can't have brunch with mamosa's oh well more fool you. Some people have class and some dont whether buying champagne or coffee. Arguing over who buys a cup of coffee isnt what id call classy

Ohh I never argue.. I just won't pay for anything and show up late. If I invite you to a social I pay .. If you invite me to a social you pay..

I hope you don't ask your friends out to dinner, then expect them to pay half the bill?

Class is very subjective, manners that's a whole different topic "

where not talking about friends and dinner where talking about having a coffee and turning up late to make sure you get your freebie is neither classy or good manners. Just cause you will buy champagne because its slim pickings doesnt mean everyone else is desperate. Someone turning up on time with a smile on their face i like is going to impress me far more than champagne. Compatability doesnt have a price tag
