Anyone else struggling for meets? Ain’t had one for months, I think my profile is pretty good, I’m always polite when I message, I send photos of myself with messages, only thing I can think is that I live in Pembrokeshire, back of beyond, I don’t mind travelling but this is getting really hard work just to get a reply let alone a meet,

Are you wanting profile feedback?

I think everybody struggles to be honest. Especially in rural areas.

I just looked at your profile and your photos are 2 dick pics and the other 3 seem heavily filtered. Your profile text is one sentence with a load of commas. On your profile alone we would not open any message as it doesn't show you as a person, what you like, what you're looking for etc

Group socials are the way forward especially for single guys. Yes they can be daunting to attend, my first social I sat down and couldn't even look at anyone, never mind talk to them. Now with Kisses I am hosting them! We get very nervous newbies and my advice always is to let the hosts know if you are nervous etc and they maybe able to introduce you to other fabbers.

Due to pic collectors, fuck boys, not "real" swingers etc etc on here people are tending to only meet potential playmates at group socials or clubs.

Also we see a lot of quite abusive statuses calling people c*** etc just for not answering a message or saying no thanks. These types we block or ignore as if they're abusive on a keyboard what would be like if you refused them in person?

There are a few socials nearish you if you dont mind travelling to Swansea.

Good luck op

Absolutely agree with above!

Socials are really nerve wracking when you first walk through that door, especially if you’re alone like I was. But I promise you, it’s worth it.

I’m one of those that does not arrange meets outside of clubs and socials unless I’ve previously met you and got on with you at one.

If clubs and socials are not something you’re willing to do, chances are you’ll be waiting a very long time for the next opportunity to meet

Best of luck ☺️

you are in part of the county where lots and lots of men are seeking women... so the women have their pick.

Its ironic I could choose to meet men every night of the week if I wanted to, the offers come in night after night, but few women seem bothered.

Carmarthen or Swansea or Cardiff might increase your chances. Cardigan even. But meets for men in Milford is going to be difficult.

Wishing you better luck soon

Agree totally with Talulah and Dory. Socials are a must. First couple can be tough. In no way is my profile amazing, but not sure whether you make the photos particularly appealing and a capital every now and again may also help in your profile.

Socials! I made more friends on a social than years on here! Now I dislike getting to know anyone via messages and pics....its like a dating app! Attend a social, meet some good people in the flesh and youll soon surround yourself with amazing people and better verifications about you as a person rather than your bedroom antics!

Pembs cardiganshire Carmarthenshire all have fairly low numbers of fabbers compared to further east but just when you find things go quiet I find things can take an unexpected turn upwards all out the blue . ...most important remain polite and positive

I find it better to meet people at socials than on fab.

It's easier to let your personality shine chatting to people in person than trying to get someone's attention by a message.

Plus, you can know if you click with some one or if there's nothing there

I've just had a look at your profile and could see three heavily filtered pics and a bio that is difficult to read.

Can a suggestion multiple paragraphs instead of one large chunk

I'm personally not a fan of heavily filtered pics. You can have pics that offer some discretion in terms of your face without the 13yr old Snapchat filters

Also, your "looking for" says you're looking for MF couples and FF couples, so not single ladies. Also, 18-99 years old... Which to me gives 'anything with a pulse' vibes.

I would rethink the profile not much but you're cutting yourself off from a lot of potentially very attractive women who are very good in bed, maybe keep a slightly more open mind to preferences as I've found in the past if the chemistry is right then preferences can quickly go out of the window

Just my observation and opinion. We're all entitled to one when someone is asking for feedback. I'm sure this person doesn't feel that way, however, some may interpret it that way.

Alright buddy, don't take this as bad criticism, I've been around for a long time, most of the women on here have seen guys wanking, and a list of things you like to do is probably best shared with someone once you've peaked their interest.

What I would suggest is have a look at some of the profiles of some of the successful males on here and try and relate your profile to something that applies to you, the main thing is the biggest exogenous zone with a female is her brain, if you can engage that you will be off to a good start keep the main course for when you meet

I can only agree with the advice already given. Socials are so important to meet people here in Wales.

The key to anything on here as a single guy is patience! You are competing with thousands of other guys here and unless you put effort into meeting without any thought of physical interaction you will find you will make some fantastic friends and you will meet more people off the back of it.

Because of where you are, your going to have to balance who you are talking to and what you want as a guy. Being prepared to travel and being prepared to be let down is something only you can deal with in your own way.

Again I can only reiterate that Socials and clubs are the best way to get meets on the scene as people can see you and make their own judgement rather than compete with other profiles.

Be you, be nice, and understand that no thanks means no thanks !

Good luck

We really struggle with meets on here… could be our way of play? Also find we aren’t always able to attend socials, but have found these great ways to meet people and arrange other meets from there.

We need a good decent club in Wales!! Please!

We’re so much better at meeting people in person than on message! We continue to try

I'd suggest the same as everyone else, the site is more a gateway to 'The Lifestyle' than a place to hook up for casual sex.

Yes, plenty of people do hook up but most of the people we've met and become friends and more with over the past few years go to the socials or clubs.

"I would appreciate some profile advice please as I'm not getting anywhere here."

Stop referring to women as "females". On Fab they are a 'people' and not a genus.

Run a 'spell check' on your profile narrative (not that there is much narrative to speak of).

And get rid of that ridiculous legal disclaimer at the bottom of your profile. It's meaningless, superfluous and smacks of gullibility.

You need to add some tasteful and teasing photographs. In fact you really need to add a lot more detail to your profile. Ask yourself how you are different to other men, what would make you unique and stand out. There is very little substance in your profile.

Exactly, it's the incels who spend all their time complaining about women not jumping on their cock when they just message them 'meet now' that are the issue.

Doesn't matter what someone looks like to me, but if they go round insulting other people's appearances and have the audacity to think they have more of a right to meet than someone else because they have a 'better dick' then that's what screams arrogance

Consider that you are the problem

First thing to do if you are finding yourself struggling, is not to take it personally.

Check through your profile and ask if you would respond to you. Interact with the forums in a positive way, and let people see your personality.

If you can find one get out to a local social meet. People are more likely to respond if they know you better.

And most importantly, rejection or no response is a part of the experience on fab for single guys especially, but not exclusively. Don't take it personally.... The more chill you are the better your experiences are gonna be.

Hang in there everyone, your people are out there I promise x

Do you think your profile has enough details and pics to appeal to a woman that gets 50 messages a day? That's what you're up against. I can hear your cry of 'not fair!' from here, but creating interest in you can only be done by you.

You and your attitude is why you dont get any replies or meets.

Change your outlook on swinging and stop the pity party. Your appalling statuses slagging off members here calling them cunts will just get you automatically blocked

Plenty of people chat and meet on here actually. I know at least 5 people on this thread alone who I've met via socials and online chat.

What they all have in common is that they are prepared to make the effort to get out and meet people, engage in stimulating conversation and generally be decent people.

Works far better than bitching and moaning that nobody chats and how you feeling like you are owed anyone's attention.

I’ve been struggling for meets for a while. Been trying to get my first veri but proves more difficult without already having veris. It’s like applying for your first job, they say they need someone with work experience but you can’t get the work experience because no one will give you the chance to work😂

If you don’t mind can someone give me feedback on my profile? Preferably F because that’s what I’m interested in. Thanks all, happy fabbing x

Sorry to be blunt, but your profile put me off. I find your profile name infantile so any message would be an automatic delete just on that.

You say you're a dom BUT I don't see that in your profile. I see a fake dom (had plenty of experience with them). What experience do you have? If you slapped me in play, I'd throat punch you, any type of "rough" play is negotiable, so to put that on your profile shows you do not unserstand kink at all. What experience do you have in restraints? Just tying up or using duct tape is so dangerous and can damage nerve endings.

Group socials are the best way to meet people and gain verification. You will get your personality shown.

anything kink wise I would advise you to go to a munch which is a social for kinksters. You would find people who could mentor etc

Likewise, but thanks for the feedback I guess😂 although I am slightly confused of your concern of tying up/duct tape “damaging nerve endings” but being completely okay with throat punching someone?😂😂

As for my “fake dom”/experiences they’ve all been within closed relationships in the past, where any photos/videos are either deleted or kept private as sharing without the consent would be highly illegal. As for that, I don’t have any to share on here as I’m new to the site and struggling for meets.

You asked for honest feedback and you act like a child over it. No wonder youre struggling for meets if you cant take constructive criticism.

If someone just slapped you are you saying you wouldnt retaliate

Acting like a child in what way? I agree that I’d retaliate certainly but I wouldn’t be prepared to express concern of something a lot less fatal (throat punching someone could be fatal).

Acting like a child in what you replied to me. Slapping someone hard, tying someone up incorrectly, what you assume is rough play could also be fatal.

Like I said (from experience) go to a munch if you want to explore the wonderful world of kink safely.

Your profile text as it stands is very off putting and is probably why you are struggling for meets.

Just take the comments on board and have a think as if you continue like this you will still struggle.

Your pics are dark and vague. Clear pics would help.

Your profile seems to be your sexual bucket list. Its all about your wants, nothing about what you offer.

I get the impression that you think this site is for easy sex. It isn't, it's for swingers to connect. Attend socials and clubs if you're interested in swinging, you'll make friends and connections that way.

And some of us do meet unverified guys - I did last week. Because he had a good profile and sent a good message. No veris isn't always the reason people won't meet.

And finally...your name and status are off putting.
