"Without ignoring the intentions of Fab and what it’s for; have you ever found a friendship on this site that goes beyond the be_room and the physical?"
Yes. A number of my Fab friends are friends irl and the relationships do not involve sex. Some great people from Fab who I see for meals, picnics, walks.... |

I haven't met this guy in person yet, so I can't say how we'll get on in person ( we're meeting next week ) but there is someone I've really clicked with via messages more than I have with anyone else on Fab and I've been on and off here since 2017. We chat about anything and everything, and unlike most on Fab they don't make me feel rubbish for reacting to things a certain way.
I think they're hot, so I hope they are sexually attracted to me in person, but even if the sexual side doesn't happen I think we'll be friends. They're non pushy, which is difficult to find on Fab, especially with a younger guy. They're nearly a decade younger than me but seem wise for their age and have been a big support to me.
I don't seem to have been good at making friendships on here, so it's nice that I seem to have found someone who gets me. |

Yes, I've been very fortunate to have connected with a few very lovely peeps...!
One I've yet to meet but I feel we kinda know each other quite well having conversed on and off FabSwingers and FabGuys over the years. Now I'm only on FabSwingers so have lost contact with a few good peeps from there but still manage to keep in touch with one guy I met from there who I got to know very well. We no longer play like we used to (which was pretty hardcore) but still keep in touch and sometimes meet up for coffee...! |

After my sons suicide 6yrs ago all my forum friends rallied round me, from top to bottom of the UK I had support which in large part is why I still breathe today.
Simply put friends drove for hours just in support & I'll never be able to thank them enough... |

I'm so sorry for your loss, but I'm glad you had a good support network. Due to life circumstances I don't really have one currently and I know how important they can be. |

I met a guy on fabguys over ten years ago. We have had many good times in bed and have had a kind of friendship but sadly that’s gone now. The guy drinks too much and gets nasty if he has seen me online and I don’t reply INSTANTLY to a message. Despite the fact he normally starts sending messages about 8PM and know I start work driving a lorry at 5PM.
I think he is a bit lonely but hey ho |

Oh thats so kind of you, he was 27 and it still haunts me of course.
The attention though was directed towards my friends, all the top forumites were so instrumental in me surveying. I felt like they were all affected as for 8 or 9 months we battled his addictions, depression and numerous attempts.
I keep 2 pics of him on my profile and they're the ones of him on his blue bike, they were taken 2 weeks before his passing. They're there because he teased me that if he had a profile his pics would get more fabs than mine, hes probably right too... |

I consider myself extremely lucky to of made some wonderful friends on here. Some local, some hundreds of miles away. We've all been a nice bit of company for each other over the years, through good times & occasionally not so good times. If you are one of them.... Thank you❤ |

Love this! I think this is what the site is all (within reason) about! Hope you have a lovely time |

We’ve been very fortunate to meet a man on here who has become a true friend (we have lots of mates, only a small number of close friends). I arranged to meet him when he was working in our home town to show him around, Pie came along only because there was a drink involved, and here we are nearly two years later.
Ladies of Yorkshire, you are missing out. |

No.
We find it difficult to mix FAB friends with our vanilla friends.
How would we introduce them, as most of our friends are naturally inquisitive and would be interested in new people's lives etc.
We tend to keep vanilla friends as real friends and FAB friends more as acquaintances, if that makes any sense.  |

Thank you! I've been getting a lot of hassle on here the past couple of days, and my home life isn't much better so I could really use the distraction of good company! Some people on here are very spiteful. |

Just out of curiosity.
How does everyone introduce their swinging friends to their vanilla friends.
It sends shudders through me at the thought of all being out in the pub and hearing a vanilla friend saying to a swinging friend "so how did you meet Liz, do you work together?"
"At a club "
"Oh really, which club? Didn't think they went to clubs"
"Never heard of that club, is it local"
As I wish for the ground to open up and swallow me. 🤣🤣🤣 |

We have kept all of our FAB connections apart from our regular friends, with one exception. When we introduced him, we said we’d met in a pub. Same when we meet his mates ‘oop north. It’s technically true, as we did meet in a pub (just via this site). |

The bloke you met in my local, let's keep him anonymous, assume he is called Phil and drinks Amstel, still thinks it's bizzare I could meet southerners in a pub 🤣 |

One thing are “Fab friends” that actually aren’t- I am always amused of how loosely the term “friend” is used in this country. Where I come from, when you use the word “friend” it is because you have a deep connection with them and are part of your life.
So, my fab “friends”/acquaintances stay in the Fab world.
The two who have made the crossover to my everyday life/world and I to theirs, we just say with one, we met at a night out in London and the other one at the airport while working. People don’t need to know any more. I have had the good fortune of being (excitedly) introduced to one of my friends’ very wide circle of friends and it was an absolute privilege and honour.
If you want the earth to swallow you up when you’re in their company and you bump into a “real” friend, then they are not your friends at all. Keep it to the be_room only. 🤷♀️ I am always extremely proud to be in the company of my friends. 🩷🎀 |

My friends are rated more on the level of relationship that we have than where we met. I have both lifestyle and vanilla acquaintances that would probably never be introduced to each other. I also have some amazing friends that I would have no issue introducing to each other. Most of my closest vanilla friends know about my lifestyle choices anyway. |

We have Fab friends that have even gone in a be_room or physical direction. We just get on well. |

Can't remember if we meet on fab but have a kik group of friends who meet a few times a year for drinks. Including Londineers, out of Londoneers, a Texan and a Dan. There's been some scandles in the group too. They probably know me better than my long term vanilla friends. |

Yes, there are friends on here which value dearly - although we may not have sex now I am part of an inner circle of like minded non judgmental people who you can be very very open too, unlike a muggle world where communication sometimes needs to be guarded |
