The site gets too much, or they're not in the right place for it or they enter a relationship with someone away from the site and the lifestyle. Or life is just too busy to meet people so they leave.
Then return when the relationship fizzles out, life calms down or they feel like they are ready to come back. |

"Because I can.
I get pissed off with fab, delete, then come back when I feeling it again.
I usually just don't login when I get like that. Don't even remember to hide my profile so I'm curious"
If I hide, the temptation to login is there.
Deleting is a a better solution for me.
Same for many others. No big deal really. |

Some people like to take a break or take a hiatus, temporary respite above and beyond simply hiding their profile to avoid the temptation of logging into Fab.
Others use it as a means to an end: they wish to engage in some sex and frivolity and then, once their appetites are sated, leave altogether.
Others, presumably have a weak constitution, and find Fab a detriment to their mental wellbeing (which is course takes precedence) and will go UNLOS.
Overall there are a multitude of compelling reasons. |

I don't have male profiles on my local updates but there are at least half a dozen single female profiles that have been doing this on a regular basis for the last 4 or 5 years.
I only know this because they just upload exactly the same pics each time.
They usually have 4 or 5 verifications or even more in a couple of cases and then 6-8 weeks later the cycle starts again.
I can understand getting upset or annoyed or fed up after a period of time and deleting but a few weeks seems extreme.
I would question why the extremely well verified profiles who are verifying then each time are happy to do so?
I've had 4 profiles in 9 years. Some of these people have had 5 or 6 in the space of a year. |

I would of thought it be easier to hide your profile than to completely delete it unless you're certain of not returning.
I was contemplating deleting fab last summer but to be fair, but friends told me about the hide feature and I'm glad I listened, otherwise I would had to start all over again from scratch  |

"Delete accounts then come back over and over. Seems to happen a lot, and seems like a lot of work to get verified again, especially for men?"
If they’re here without a partners knowledge they may be concerned they’ve been found out.
Or as others have said they’ve been blocked by locals etc.
One guy near me is into some illegal and morally questionable stuff, I expect he gets blocked by a lot of people. He then reappears a few months later. |

I can only speak for the ones I know of , they need to get away from the site for awhile and this method works for them better than just hiding their profile and staying away.
I kind of understand it. I can’t have any bad food in the house at all as I cannot regulate it like normal people. |

In the early day's my ex was stalking me, so that was a few new profile creations
And then lately I've had a few new ones as I've gone through a really difficult / rocky time...I needed to have a clean break
I think most times when people delete, they imagine they won't come back... It's a total PITA starting over |

A guy I met years ago does this and every 6 months or so I get a message asking if I'll give him a veri again. There have been several reasons over the years but mostly life goes on and this is a small part of it. I do wish he'd just hide it but maybe he doesn't have the will power to stay away if it's an option.
Recently there has been another guy I've been speaking to and he makes an account, has a wank and leaves a d then comes back again a few days later. If he didn't tell me who he was every time I would have no clue because he doesn't put any pics up.

I've probably had around 4 accounts over the last 5 years. I'll delete it if I get a girlfriend or if I feel I'm spending far too much time on here.
It's annoying that I've lost all of my verifications, but not the end of the world. |

What's worse is they always come back with the same old photos.. |

Last time I deleted my profile was to try and drop an old stalker. Hiding and changing names doesn't shift those ones.
And I've deleted couples profiles to create a new single one when they ended. I stick to just keeping my single one now though.
I do see a lot of people do it locally though. Several of them message every time and the new account isn't blocked like the old one.
There's also that flurry of attention and activity with a new account which may be something that's driving them.

I've been on Fab with this profile, albeit, with a profile name change and several profile text and picture updates, for over nine years now
Before my current profile, I had about three different ones in five years; my main reason for deleting them was because I wasn't sure if this site was working for me. Now, although I don't get much success on here, I'm happy with the site dynamics and I feel that I'm able to make the most of it. |

Because I want a break without the temptation of logging back in. And then I make a new account when I’m ready.
Although next time I go UNLOS I’m sure it’ll be my last |

I always think, with some, it's to get round blocks.
Others only join when they're horny and want to get a meet and don't use the site for anything else.
I used to chat to someone who left quite regularly, he always said he wanted to meet, it never happened.
After he left again, I just stopped responding, as it feel pretty pointless.
Theres various reasons, but these profiles aren't for me, especially if they keep asking for verifications. Just hide fgs. |

Yeah I didn't twig for ages that if you are hot listed it makes no difference if you change your name  |

No idea it up to individuals a guess a have been on an off a just don’t go on but I’m a guy and only have the odd interaction.
I’d imagine be a girl on here can be super overwhelmed and there stories of nutters and stalkers so get why some folk have to delete . |

I find it generally a weird behaviour - if you are going to go - then go.
The only ones I don’t really like are the attention seekers who flounce out and then make a big deal about their reappearance a few weeks later. Yawnsville. |

The guy I knew who did it because he’s married and he felt guilty after he had his ‘fun’ and then get his urges again and sign back up again and the same pattern over and over until I had a go at him and told him to focus on his beautiful wife & be a good father to his son. He’s not signed back up again since, but I suspect he’s probably still up to no good! Just probably goes to saunas now. |

Sometimes (although very rarely these days), I get involved in a new relationship. It would seem a little disingenuous to just hide my profile as if somehow I had left myself a safety net of sorts. “Well there’s always fab and my awesome reputation on there if it doesn’t work out” (tongue in cheek). It would be like keeping a packet of Marlboro in the bedside table when you’ve given up smoking, for a “well, I may need a crutch” moment.
I should at least enter any new relationship with a clean slate and an equitable fashion and without, what could be, a devastating to discover for my new partner, singles profile on fab |

I’ve had a couple accounts over a decade. Thought I’d come off for good and then went back 2 years later to see if it’s any better
Sadly it’s still the same. Full of cock picks and no energy or effort from men |

Looks like I may be deleting it again soon, as I feel like I'm starting to spend too much time on here again...😅 |

For a change, I’m gonna go into hiding.
Friends…..give us a quick shout if you wanna keep in touch away from here. I’m going on an extended self imposed ‘holiday’. |
