Everyone is entitled to use the site anyway they want to and as long as there not creating discord why would you care how anyone else would use the site. You probably use the site very differently than for instance we do and we don't have any problems with that at all |

I haven't been meeting on this profile for 5 years for personal reasons and I don't really care who has an issue with that.
I'm one half of a fab couples profile and for similar personal reasons we aren't meeting through that either.
Anyone getting their knickers in a twist over how others use the site says more about them then anything else.
The site is anything people want it to be. It's only a matter of time before someone pops in to say that single people shouldn't be here either. |

I’m confused about is it a double negative with “am I wrong or is this not…”
I wasn’t here back in the day so I can’t comment but I will say is it seems there is a social or play party nearly every week now |

It kind of looks like that to me at the moment that single males should not be on here, also alot more people stating that they are not meeting, maybe I am wrong but what is that all about.I know it is all not about jumping into bed at the drop of the moment but surely this is all about introductions and meeting new friends. |

Single males have as much right to be here as anyone else.
Many people have been here for years and are only using the site to keep up to date on socials or see it as a good way of expressing their exhibionist side target than just a way of meeting people.
The joy of fab is that there is no one size fits all. It would be pretty boring if everyone was doing the same thing. |

Well if we are getting technical this site is about couples meeting other couples but as has been said not everyone uses it the same |

I’m even more confused by this statement!! Where does it state the site is for couples only? Swingers can be single men or women, couples or groups, there’s no one trait to “swingers”.
If you look at the search icon, it gives plenty of options there, if the site was just for couples, that’s all you’d be able to search for surely??? |

I think historically "Swinging" is about couples only in the real world
Now with sites like this it's for everyone

Op it looks like you fall into the not meeting category also looking at your verifications.
Its up to every profile to use the site as they see fit.
We use it for socials and forums mainly atm.
But we also like to play together in others company so it works for us. |

This is 100% spot on ☺️ |

Op you need to understand the history of swinging for one.
Then update your entire profile, not going to say what or why.
But like everything else swinging evolves, you either get on board with that or continue to have your usual success here. |

Often the problem is just that some people view everything through their own lens and then get annoyed that everybody else is not complying.
People are free to interact whatever way they want on here. Just because it doesn't suit you, is totally irrelevant. |

This happens every September. It's back to school chaos in most family households, so it's hard to plan meets with similar couples. I never put up a " not meeting now" status, I just hide my profile when I'm not available. |

To me its odd. Is this not a site for meeting people for sex. Like if someone wants to chat try kik. As for the couples wanting to meet female..I suppose the lady is bi and is interested to explore that side. The boyfriend or hubby is hardly going to say no to that lol |

People really don’t get the lifestyle every fella thinks that it’s a fuck and go site and that’s not what it’s about ! It’s not all
About sex but fellas just want to build up numbers and no meet socially first and I think that’s what’s wrong read up on the lifestyle first |

"May be I am wrong, but not meeting to me means no social meets either and that to me defeats the hole purpose of getting to know new people."
Very well may be people trying to make it clear they're not wanting to meet new people as they're happy with the the friends or occasional play partners they already have and are still here for their own purposes such as having a bit of banter on the forums, lurking and perving or even seeing what events are coming up.
Could also be in a situation where real life has gotten complicated and made it tough to organise things so this place becomes a nice distraction.
While many guys may see this place as simply somewhere to go when horny and wanting to find someone new for sex or whatever, it's far from it and seeing it as that leads to you missing out on so much. |

Yes to all that. 👍🏻 I didn't have the energy to be explaining 👍🏻 |

Sure a bit of self awareness never hurt anyone.
Actually introduced a friend to fab last night (she knew about it and tried before but decided to try again) and was hilarious being in the car just chilling out laughing at message after message coming in. Too bad the actually genuine ones seemed to be in the minority.
Just as a new profile, she'd gotten more messages in less than 12 hours than I've had in an entire year by quite a lot, and it was clear so many of those messages were by guys that wanted something happening near instantly, without much interest in getting to know each other.
Definitely need to try and get through to them that this isn't a "straight" Grindr. |

Well said. Personally, I interpret 'Not Meeting at the moment" as simply stating a position at a particular point in time.
There are as many reasons for using this site as there are people on it (well almost, but you know what I mean!).
If I state that I'm 'Not Meeting' but don't hide my profile, It simply means I'm not actively seeking to meet people in person right now (1 way to use this site) but I'm very much open to chatting (another use), having banter on forums (yet another use) and making new connections (do I need to labour the point?!).
I personally don't view 'Not Meeting' as a deterrent, rather a way of saying "approach with curiosity, not intent".
I wouldn't expect everyone to share my pov, but that's my tuppence worth...  |
