I see a lot of status updates refering to what ive said in my title , Pls help me understand why the good guys (ok slightly more boring than the other guys but most those guys who ain't biring and grab Ur attention are fake) I think the "real" guys should get more of a look in , you may find that diamond in the rough ....

I've met a few guys who definitely grabbed my attention. They weren't boring and were absolutely real.

I don't understand why it's an issue. Oh wait. That's probably because I'm not real either.

The men I've met have definitely been real. I did have to touch them, just to make sure they weren't a figment of my imagination.

Im sorry i didn't actually mean all of them im sure there's some that are actually real but the saying "if it's too good to be true then it probably isn't" bodes well on here from what I've heard

"Women" don't. Some women do its true but most of us aren't daft and learn after having our fingers burnt once. The notion that women only go for bad guys is wrong and quite insulting to our emotional intelligence.

I met a few guys who by looking at them would seem to good to be true and they were nice to me as well. So sometimes you can get lucky.

I live by one simple rule on fab;

"if it seems too good to be true it probably is"

So I follow my gut instinct and it's never steered me wrong.

Think you'll find women just go for the guys they find attractive on some level that just may not be you OP

Just a case of what stands out more and peeks someone's attention.

I agree on the aspect I seen a lot of couples and women's status complaining of men/couple/women letting them down but can't always say it cause they was to good to be true cause the same way I could looks amazing to one woman in the same way I'm an ogre to the next.

Its just a case that regardless of looks the trolls or timewasters seem to stand out more and make the large impact.

But that being said those terms get thrown around so much you never know it someone is actually a timewasters or just labels cause that could keep to a meet for a legitimate reason.

All to do with perception and preference.

Your comment confused me!

This is a sex/swinging site (other than those here only for chat/the forums!) - ergo we aren't (in the most part) here looking for love! So surely we're all 'out for ourselves!' ?

It's the way be go about getting what we want that matters. Xx

Most of us can spot manipulation a mile off. To be honest on fab I notice men being manipulated far more than women.

I suspect many of the women on here know how it works and spot these sort of profiles a mile off, as many of us men spot the women's profiles that are just the same

I think the OP was referring to the frequency of threads about single men not meeting and being let down and wondering whether the people concerned are being fooled by profiles that are 'too good to be true' and turn out to be fake and postulating that maybe by casting their net they might have more success

That's not to say some of these 'too good to be true' profiles aren't real because I've met some of the female ones that would fit into that category and they definitely were real!

I've met guys who could be considered too good to be true and never been let down...they've actually been bloody marvellous and exceeded expectations!

There is one guy on here who definitely fits the OP's description though - gorgeous face, ripped body, huge cock and a string of fake veris he's charmed out of women. It's amusing to catch him out on his lies when I'm bored

You win some, you lose some.

Some people let you down for various reasons. It's all about being patient and just messaging people whose profile you have a lot in common with. Read their profile first, and if you seem to be what someone is looking for then say hello and go from there.

Most the guys I go for look too good to be true so I make sure I secure a social meet within hours or a day and exchange kik details and get them to send live pics.

Even met a dude before just because he said my profile was fake and was adamant that I was using fake pictures, I was like right I'll prove it meet me now by KFC drive through! He bought me a fully loaded box meal for my trouble!

it doesn't work with everyone though. a lot of guys are blatant about pretending to be what i want just so they'll get a meet.

luckily this type of guy also seems to have no stamina when it comes to persuing people for a selfish fuck.

You got a fully loaded box meal??

That's a happy ending to a story right there

Then again a lot of girls are the same as the guys you mention, randy and will hump a table leg if given half a chance and some guys are more selective and would rather go without than have sex with just anyone.

I'm going to assume the OP is talking about profiles with pics of big cocks and ripped abs. When someone messages me with those pics the first thing I do is reverse image the pics. If that gives no results I will chat to the man and see a face pic. If the conversation goes well I move onto conversation via my phone. In exactly the same way I do with average or flabby men with little dicks

Are there many women here who suit your preferences?

There are loads of men who suit mine,because,contrary to what you believe,I won't hump a table leg because I'm randy,I have a diverse taste in men and don't just go for a handsome face and pecs. You kind of contradict yourself with your OP. You're telling women they shouldn't go for the attractive men,and your reasoning is they are all fakes,which they aren't. And,women should lower their standards so they don't get fooled.

Thank you.. I actually meant everything I said to him and I would have been fully committed - Ironically, I ended up feeling fully 'Committable'!!!!

It was a very hard lesson and despite my friends, family and even his ex FB telling me he wasn't what I believed him to be - I still found it hard to accept he had used me so badly!!! I felt so foolish - still do!!

From my long time being on fab the reason is quite simply because women on FAB can afford to be picky on this site, with a ridiculously high ratio of men to women, why would they settle for less? granted some women do have "delusions of grandeur" because the reality is that many wouldn't give them a second look walking down the street, but the same goes for the guy.

You need to be able to bring something new to the table, I cant compete with the ripped adonis type on here, but whats the point in looking at something pretty when some their performances are shocking? fortunately i'm lucky when it comes to meets, as i know what I'm doing between the sheets, but i by no means take that for granted to think I am entitled to meet every woman I chat to. Each to their own as the saying goes!

Works the other way too..

My fb who is 60 met a gorgeous 22 year old Latvian lady and booked a hotel room as she wanted wined and dined....unsurprisingly and to his dismay she then requested a £100 in the bedroom before sex, saying it was to pay her babysitter for her kids. He did give her money as he was scared she had a minder, and after a quick 2min sex session she was off. I did warn him but his cock ruled his head!

So if someone is too good to be true it usually is.
