Are socials the key to finding someone?

They are good to meet people yes. Like minded people in one place looking to make connections.

Get yourself to a group social then. More people = more chance to speak to the people you are looking to connect with

Organised socials are a good way to meet like-minded people, as long as you are ok to chat to people.

You have verifications saying you are chatty and friendly.

Is the problem that none of these are sexual meets?

There's one solution fits all to the thorny problem of single men getting meets.

Socials are a great way to meet people and get to know them and could lead to more but it's no guarantee.

Getting back to your original poster. I think if you attend more group social events you would integrate very well as your verifications show you enjoy a chat. Building up connections via such social events will get you noticed and maybe invites to house parties etc, where there's no pressure on anyone to play but more importantly its to create a positive atmosphere, which you would certainly contribute towards.

I think socials are a great way to determine if you are compatible with someone. Not just physical attraction but mental attraction and connections.

Face to face is always better as there's only so much you can feel via messages and texts.

you'll find that most males on Fab get very little interest....

You don't have to drink. Just look at what's going on locally. Pop along, meet new people, that sort of thing.

OP. do yourself a favour

Look at the green arrow, (it's by the side of your name in any box that shows your comment if you didn't know)

It lists the threads that you've started or posted in.

Take a look, take some time out to read all the posts, there's been some good but repetitive advice as you ask very similar questions.

You've encountered some people that may be honest but that shouldn't be a reason to close a thread. Maybe learn from it all

Or

Continue as you are and always get blunt feedback

Thats a chance you’re going to have to take. There is no magic wand that will make things work especially if you don’t try.

I would definitely recommend a social first.

Unless you've been chatting, calling and video messaging for a while.

It is another way to meet people, but not the panacea to meeting people for sex if you’ve not been successful on the site.

Being ND and an introvert at heart, I’ve had to mask my shyness/insecurities all my life-especially because I’ve worked in customer-facing roles all my career. so for me socials are hard as I find it extremely difficult to approach people to say hello. I usually wait for people to come to say hello to me. so a bit of a reverse effect than on here, where I am highly successful as I feel much more confident and I can pour my heart and brain out on messages and take things at my pace.

But I still push boundaries and go to socials- have met amazing people there, including my best friend forever and some really hot people to have fun with 😮‍💨 🔥 would have never met them had I not gone! 💘

As someone who organised the Bradford socials, yes they can help, but it's not guaranteed

Nothing is guaranteed in life. I go to social just to talk and never sex

OP, nobody can help with your confidence but you. I get that sometimes everything seems very dark and there appears to be no hope, but negative attitude is not going to get you far in life.

Take the advice onboard, decide what events you can get to, and just go? Also, you post on public forum, you can't get offended when some people post comments you don't like.

Well, get going then. Message the hosts and tell them it is your first social. The first socials I attended the hostesses made a point of introducing me to everyone and that was so good… it really helped my confidence. I thonk nowadays it’s more of a “upon request”basis as I think there are more people attending but if you ask they’ll be happy to.

"Are socials the key to finding someone?"

Socials are a great way of getting out of the house, chatting to other open-minded sexy people and making life better generally.

You may click, share details etc. it’s a chance for your real personality to shine and be taken at face value not judged by profile cock pics. For guys , couples, single women starting out in the scene or have not had any success with Fab messages, socials and clubs are key

"We've just started going to group socials and they are really good fun and i think they are alot easier than 1-1 socials or us as a couple meeting one other person no awkward moments

It seems easier for couples on here. I’m like a needle in a hay

stack

Plenty of single guys go

Tricky when you work weekends "

I worked weekends. I booked one weekend off a month to go to a swingers club.

I also live in London, so there is a swinger event here every night of the week.

Once the regulars at clubs get to know you, it will be easier to have sexual play.

Why are events not suitable for you?

Too far away?

Disability?

Too expensive?

I rotate between my 3 nearest clubs and once I got to meet people, I went with them to clubs further away.

I'm neurodivergent and I have some perimenopausal symptoms that makes travelling alone scary. I teased one of my playmates and told him he's my carer. Lol! But he knows how to look after me and he's put me in the recovery position before.

I'm on a low income, and many of my playmates are not well-off, but we tend to split the bills on things if we need to.

I've been to clubs and events with many people with physical seen and hidden disabilities and we all just find support and community. It's a bit like where there's a will there's a way.

You might have to put more effort into this lifestyle than you are currently but that doesn't mean that you have to completely give up all your other solo hobbies forever.

Hope that helps.

Sidenote, if you are not that interested in pursuing sex, have you ever thought that you might be asexual or aromantic? It's more common than people think.

Emphasis on fun at some events. I have to travel to clubs as there are no local clubs near me. Usually by train as currently not allowed to drive. I do struggle a lot with walking. When I go to a club, I’d have to book a hotel due to it being far way

I've been going to the same club now for 2.5 years. It's not easy to get to but I go once a month for the social. Others come from that far away too and they book hotels and take taxis or drive. 2 or 3 hours just to attend and then 2 or 3 hours driving back after!! I've met people in London who have come from Glasgow, Leeds and Newcastle just for one social, event or club night. I'm sure they don't do it every weekend but once enough is enough and you end up meeting the same people even if it's only once a month.

Most of the time, we (the regulars) just lounge around and chat.

Sex won't come right away, especially as a virgin. I joined after 2 years of celibacy, a low libido and struggling to connect to my body and others.

My first time attending clubs, I didn't have sex because I wasn't confident enough and I think people can tell when you are not relaxed and not confident so they won't want to have sex with you if that is the case.

I can't advise anyone to jump in the deep end in this lifestyle because you need a certain level of social, physical and psychological skills to cope with it all.

Quite a few clubs have gloryholes but I'm not sure how that would work with your mobility.

Reason why I don't use my phone for this. Lol! I speed type on a computer and I press the wrong buttons all the time on my phone. Lol!

I'm autistic and I can't even stand my therapy on my phone. I hate the phone interface...or rather, my brain doesn't like it.

I had him message me a lot, I ended up having to block him as he clearly wasn’t taking the advice he was given and was asking the same thing over and over. I was genuinely trying to help but there is only so many time I can say the same thing.
