What is it with all the timewasters on this site? We arranged a meet last night, actually was able to get a babysitter (which is difficult for us) even got txt confirmation in the morning from thm and thn was a no show

We would never do that! We can usually spot them but this time they got us. Does anyone else have this prob alot?

ony a couple of times in the few years ive been here.

what I think people forget is some cpls see it as a dipping toes in thing, or some cpls dont know what they would actually do confronted by someone else sexually, and lastly...its always possible that 1 side of the cpl i pushing another against their will of sorts

Maybe they got cold feet and couldn't go through with it in the end no matter how much they wanted to.

Still no excuse to just not turn up and waste someones time, I have had to cancel meets in the past but would never deliberately not turn up x

nothing more binding then time wasters alot of folk on here talk a good game but when you get down to trying to arange a meet all the reason's under the sun come out as they carnt meet at the moment or work has made them unable to meet... if you arange a date and time its only respectfull you try your best to for fill your meet if you ask me.

We've been swinging for 6 years and have never, ever had a real no show. One or 2 cancelled due to life's little surprises but never a true no show. If that had happened to us, we'd have just gone to a club - no drama. Z

We always allow for 90% no shows. Always works out about right.

We don't meet the same people over and over again mind you, so each contact is "new".

I've been on site three years and not encountered a no show. After meeting a guy socially two years ago I only met him to play two weeks ago as our work and life meant we've both had to cancel. Funny thing is he lives 10 minutes drive away.

Some people would have called us timewasters!

We have had similar situations - not 2 years though but chatted to a couple a few times starting in november and met them last night. Not every one is free all the time. Z

never had a no show, but a few cancellations, which, as has been said, is par for the course. we have had to once, so it happens.

think getting a no show would mean we stop doing it i think as she has very little patience for it

I'm really growing to despise seeing the word timewaster on here, how many threads of this do we need really. Some people are dicks, its called LIFE. Moaning seems to be a favourite past time on fab!! Forgive my harshness but in all honesty I really think the word should be banned lol.

As a single guy on here it's really frustrating, lots of idiots giving us genuine ones a bad reputation. There are genuine single guys

idiots come in both sex, its not just single guys in here that mess people about, couples and women can too

Ive only had two no shows in 11 years of doing this so cant moan really but one of them was a couple and other a single guy so its been 50/50 for me

we always meet for a social in a pub or something first, had a few not show up to that, so we just have a good night out and enjoy ourselves, if they turn up then great.

always leave playing to another time, and never been let down on the play night, it also gets rid of the awkward dont really want to play with you moments, as we all have a few days to think about them, and they us

You've got it back-to-front - the idiots do you a massive favour by helping you to stand out - its just a shame there aren't more of them
