My observation would be that you should try a different approach. You have successfully found a method that doesn’t work. That’s a win because you now know one set of things not to do any more. Try something radically different and see if that works. If it doesn’t then try something else. Keep on going.
For example, your profile is not for you. It is for other people. Are you setting yourself out so that they will like what they see as opposed to what you want to see?
Are you sending messages to everyone or do you know what you are really looking for (that doesn’t just mean a shag) and appealing to those people who have/are interested in that thing?
In my experience people keep on banging the same drum and then wonder why nothing changes. |

In honesty, I do think your age is likely to be a limiting factor. You could send the best tailored message in the world and people won’t reply if there’s no attraction. The main reason for people not replying is that it allows that person through filters and encourages further replies despite no mutual interest. |

Women get hundreds of messages a day. Yours might get lost in there. They may read and think "ill get back to him" then get distracted and forget.
There's way more men than women. The lads with a hot body definitely do better but after that its just luck and chance.
But it can happen  |

I found lack of responses were my own fault and nobody else's.
Check everything in their profile, age, bio, looking for etc etc before messaging. Don't just get dazzled by their pictures.
Find people that actually want the same and you genuinely match their preferences.
I now send far less messages, but to those that do seem a good match and I get far more replies.
Good luck op. |

Depends what you are on here for OP. If you think that all the women on Fab are just gagging for any dick, then your time here will be full of disappointment. If you're here for the banter and then build a rapport with people, who knows what might develop.
Having said that, there are obviously some people who just want The Sex, so who knows.... |

The silence is pretty much normal I’m afraid. A lot of women/couples seem to be content to do their own looking or hang around here for the social side of things. They also get so many messages from guys that it just ends up as noise.
You have to be lucky enough to get the right message to the right person when they’re in the right mood.
For your profile, I’d suggest going to “can travel” (because you can and no one expects you to go across three counties to see them anyway), set your age range to a more realistic range (30-80 just says “I’ll have anyone” and work on your profile text because currently it’s one super-long sentence with lots of commas. Making a profile that’s easier to read and has the right information demonstrates that you’re a good communicator. |

"Tell them your rich and own a nuclear power plant"
The fair all most men don't get many replies if you get 1,back out of multiple your quite lucky and for every reply it won't probably turn out for a meet either
The best bet is try and find a club to go to and meet face tor face |
