By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

I have messaged loads of women on here, but either it never gets read or when it does they don't reply. I know they probably get load's of mail everyday, but just something to say one way or the other would be nice. Starting to think maybe I'm not attractive enough or something wrong with my profile, seriously making think about deleting myself.

Hi op

No reply simply means not interested but they could be busy also.your bio could do with some work,so if you search within the forum Search profile help results from previous folk whom asked similar as yourself and use the tools load of helpful advice so you can create something that fits around you personally.

You're still pretty new man, so stick at it and find out what works for you . Getting the first meet and verification is the hardest, but once you get a good veri, your reputation will improve and you'll see more success. Never be afraid to seek advice from the women on here too - they are always nice and eager to help

Your pics are not enticing. You cannot accomodate (presumes attached) and this will go against you. Your bio says nothing about you or what you are offering.

Profile screams you are here to get your dick wet. So not surprising you aren't getting much attention when plenty other male profiles to choose from

OP.

You have only been on here for a few weeks. This isn't an Instant Success site.

You've joined after a Covid pandemic. Prior to it starting 2 years ago, it could take guys over a year to get success.

Nowadays, it's even longer!

There are 100's of guys in your area all seeking the same goal. So YOU have to make your Profile stand out! Otherwise, the women can afford to be picky from the wide choice of Males.

You have to "sell yourself" just like a CV would for a job!

Your profile is only 3 lines! You have to say what you can bring to a meet, plus what you would expect at one too!

You don't accommodate but don't say why; that's a Red Flag to a lot of ladies or Couples.

Your pics? Come on, could you at least smile in one of them?

Any success is down to yoyr own effort. You'll need Patience and Perseverance in abundance, plus a thick skin to handle all the rejections or simply No Replies (which mean recipients aren't interested in you!).

It's tough out there for Single guys. Getting yourself noticed works, so get to Clubs or Socials in your region.

It can work. Good luck!

Yeah, we are all miserable. How dare we not reply to every message in our inboxes from guys we aren’t interested in. It’s out of order if you ask me.

Calling women miserable on the forums won't help your cause either.

It's a numbers game OP. I'm currently accepting messages of men, hence I have 764 unread ones in my inbox at this moment. I do the odd scroll, I do chat to some, I'll bulk delete a lot!... I can give you my login if you fancy being my free PA for a week? But failing that I actually do have a job myself. So spending hours messaging back 'no ta' is not worth my time

Many people here will look at a profile before reading the message attached.

Often they've already decided on whether or not their interested before opening the message.

Use your profile to sell yourself, express in your bio what you are seeking and what you can offer.

Currently your bio tells us nothing but you're looking for what the majority here are seeking.

My advice is join a club or go to a social get your self out there

Expand on your bio ...look at mine for example and even then I'm still making changes to get the best out of it, with fab you need to put 100% effort in to get 10% back ...but be paitent and keep chipping away at the block

You are completing with guys when for every woman there 100 blokes.

What probably doesn't help you is having just 2 lines on your profile and not being able to accommodate at your age, which usually indicates to most that you aren't single.

Not saying there are none, but it does put a lot of folk off. If I was looking for a guy (I'm not), I would stop reading the minute I saw you were married. T

Of course there are married people on the site, getting around it isn't an option is it, that is making it worse.

You are who you are and you're living your life the way you are, if someone from here wants to be part of it then it's up to them.

Wow! Or maybe they're just not interested in you?

The fact that you are calling women miserable just because you aren't getting the results you feel you deserve is very telling in itself

I'm sure there are others, but the majority will want to avoid you and stick with the honest folk.

The only real way around it is by being honest with your partner....or by getting caught!

The women you are messaging, have you read their profiles and what they are looking for?

I wouldn’t reply as I don’t meet privately nor with people without their partners knowledge.

I think your expectations of the site and the people on here probably differ to others.

Socials ARE the place to start.

With so many blokes on here looking to get their dick wet, its almost impossible to stand out.

Chatting in a pub, face to face and proving youre a nice guy who actually looks like the photo makes it much easier to stand out.

Not to be funny, a social also tends to out those who cant put some time and effort into a relationship. Yes. Its a relationship even if only overnight. Cheat if you wish, nothing to do with us but be aware that very few people are willing to jump to attention when a guy says he only has an hour or two free, or can only do certain times because his mrs might find out.

One who can meet up in a pub and hold a conversation about life, politics, dogs vs cats or cheese and onion vs salt and vingear is much more likely to end up naked in a hotel room with a nipple in his mouth.

Im fairly sure that was how we all used to do it before the internet came along and turned the whole of society into a meat market.

Oh no not another single guy profile bleating about his lack of success on here. Cold hard fact is that “single” guys are plentiful on here so you have to be exceptional or damn lucky to get a meet. Suck it up mate cos couples and single women are not attracted to whingers.

You're more likely to get a reply in the forums as you can probably see. Maybe that's the foot in the door but yeah, women here do get a lot of messages and replying to every single message would be tiresome. I've said in the past that Fab should introduce a feature that makes it easier to determine. If a message is opened, there should be perhaps two buttons beside the reply box. 1. Not interested. 2. Busy but will get back to you. This way we'd know for sure, I reckon.

Whoa there!!

Calling out women as Miserable will do you NO favours at all!

Have you really looked at your profile?

Firstly, 3 pics of your Dick!

Really? Do you think that potential meet people will recognise you by your Cock? Ditch these 3 photos to Friends or Private and put up a Face and / or Torso pic!

Your profile is written as a list of Bullet Points. You need to move it into Paragraphs.

Also, research has shown that starting each point or sentence with "I" in any written description, puts people off reading it.

But read your first line again. The inclusion of "not meeting due to a health issue" is a perfect example of shooting yourself in the foot!

Just say you are looking to chat first and take it from there.

Look on the Firum Index for other threads all asking the same as you and heed the advice.

Look at the FAB advice page for Newcomers. It states quite clearly that a No Response or Reply, is indicative of the recipient ISN'T INTERESTED! It's clear to see!

Consider that women get swamped with messages, running into 100's. They don't have time or the inclination to wade through all these messages and reply to each one!

It doesn't work that way! The ladies can afford to be picky and choose to contact the guys who have put in the effort in both their profile and approach.

They also note those Males who come out with negative comments on FAB.

TRUST the advice given to varied similar threads on here.

Good Luck!

3 photos of your cock dont really entice.

Your bio is a contradiction to the top part.

While you have got t blurb it basically sums up to i dont care i just want sex.

As for what is wrong with the people you messaged, maybe you don't meet their requirements.

They are not obliged to reply.

Maybe they're just too busy being happy getting fun elsewhere

Keep the face pictures and the part about being in a relationship but ditch the rest of the bio. No one is interested in the blurb.

Women like honesty and will trust you now you’ve mentioned your status.

You’ve pretty much nailed it mate.

I’ll be straight with you mate, put the phone down and go outside and put that effort in to connecting with someone in real life. Fabs alright and that but can be a frustrating lonely place for a man. Don’t let it get you down. ( sorry if I come across patronising).

You are not alone OP. I rarely meet someone from site. I visit clubs regularly and in general have good experiences. Having said that, clubs can also be as hard as here depending which one you choose to visit, your social skills and sex appeal.

My advice, if it is starting to get under your skin maybe is time to have a break.

We haven't been on the scene long. I spoke to Mrs about it last year. She agreed to go to our local club. It's quite small and maybe that helped. Anyway we had a bit of fun and still taking things slowly. The point is much better going on that journey with her than leaving her at home.

That doesn't detract from the point if everyone just plays away there just aren't enough women to go around (so to speak). But you get the idea.

Totally get that and I'm sure there plenty who aren't as open as you, but being a cheat doesn't make you a remotely honest person. See it this way, why would a stranger on here trust someone to have reapect for them when they clearly don't have any respect for their own partner?

This. If your relationship is that bad then finish it. I had to let go of a decade long partnership because we'd drifted apart and wanted different things. Yes it was painful, probably one of the most difficult times of my life but we're both better off now than being stuck in a dead end...

Hmmmm…. You’re not painting yourself in the best light here OP I can’t lie.

All of this talk of “records” and messaging “loads of women”. You make it sound like you’re seeking conquests to brag about and gain notches on the bed post.

Maybe you need to dial down on what it is you look for in a woman and message those who match your preferences instead of a scattergun approach.

You need to understand that success on swinging site like this takes time and patience - more so if you are a single guy (us lot are ten a penny compared to females and couples). When I joined my first swinging site nearly 20 years ago, I didn't get my first meet until after 10 MONTHS. After that, word of mouth got around with their contacts and friends, and I was recommended to other couples.

If you're serious about swinging, you need to be patient, and persevere. Don't let a refusal or no response knock you back. Just move on, and keep trying.

If it's just a "wham, bam, thank-you mam" you're after behind your partner's back, may I suggest you look for a site advertising working girls, at a cost.

"Thanks for the advice people, I have altered and lengthened my profile hopefully it will make it a bit better. Anybody want to view it and give me feedback much appreciated "

My top tips:

- Your profile is a little bit all about "you", add a bit more about what you have to offer when you meet someone, go beyond the "give pleasure", remember for women sex is an emotional/ physical experience - not just a quick relief.

- You have said discretion is required but you have a face pic in public, that's a red flag for drama

- "average dad bod to suit (actually not in bad shape if I say so myself)" let people be the judge of that. Body attraction is subjective.

- "and am looking for that naughty spark to get me going." sounds like the person you will meet has to do all the work?

- "Can travel, but not at the drop of a hat we would need to message and arrange what works for both parties." this is good but I would say how you respect people's time also. Everyone is busy

Hopefully that helps a little.

When messaging someone, read their profile, ask them about them or something specific on their profile or in their pictures.

When messaging someone, read their profile, ask them about them or something specific on their profile or in their pictures.

Thanks for the pointers, some really good advice and I appreciate your input xx

"I have messaged loads of women on here, but either it never gets read or when it does they don't reply. I know they probably get load's of mail everyday, but just something to say one way or the other would be nice. Starting to think maybe I'm not attractive enough or something wrong with my profile, seriously making think about deleting myself."

Yeah, it's crap on here. I have better luck pulling girls at work. (Jk, jk). I'm just here for the banter and occasional conversation. Anyhow, It's probably not that you aren't attractive enough. It's just you're not niche enough. Being average on here doesn't cut it pal.

"You have been here 4 weeks what exactly did you expect"

I've used fab on and off for years - never had a single meet up. I'm not bothered, because I don't need it to meet women. However, most guys on here are probably wasting their time if they're expecting meets. It's an endless cycle of messages and ghosting.

And yet I've not had this problem and continue to get meets and chat with loads of people

Maybe it's the way most guys approach others with there opening message

"I'm in the same boat as you. I've sent alot of messages to women, few have read but most don't read and some of them have blocked me.

I have put alot of info on my profile, but still get no reply. What wrong with these women in these days...miserable I guess!!!

Yeah, we are all miserable. How dare we not reply to every message in our inboxes from guys we aren’t interested in. It’s out of order if you ask me. "

It is, shame on you! You’ve let fab down, you’ve let your friends down and most importantly you’ve probably let your knickers down. Go to the naughty step, this instance

I’m on here as a couple and a single. Both profile get very little attention. Been here 6 years. I’ve used the forum to maximise my profile. I’ve realised that you should have no expectations get yourself to clubs and socials find a local Kik group show off your personality

You are attached so that's an instant no for me and many women. But some really don't care so I guess it's just a matter of finding those people. But I do appreciate the honesty.i presume you have worked on your profile because it looks fine to me.

Good luck and I hope you partner didn't find out.

I’m surprised people are getting zero success after several years on here.

I’ve had several meets, mostly very good. (Don’t judge me on quantity of veris. There are enough to show I’m real, nothing else)

I’m not surprised women have free will and choice. I have verifications, mainly from clubs, but don’t expect anything from anyone.

I've heard this a lot - Men should get themselves down to clubs/socials. Thus, making the website borderline useless for most men.

I thought I should just be honest in my profile, thanks for the advice

Socials and clubs are the best way to get verified. Generally if you get good verifications from clubs it shows you are respectful and friendly. The site is always going to be tough as a single guy due to the numbers of single men to single ladies and couples are more interested in ladies then gents.

Just to add to previous comments; I've currently got 208 unread messages from the last 3 days.

I have a life. It's literally impossible for me to reply to everyone!

If you want me to reply - be different. Don't just be another dick pic.

Read my damn profile. Don't just say "hey hows you?". Don't start off the bat asking to meet me in the first sentence.

Give me SOME display of personality! A joke? Something light and flirty?

Also - guys - sending a lady a 400 word bit of erotica about what you want to do to her in your first ever interaction is SUPER off-putting!

You'll figure out your rhythm though

You actually a raise a good point. Getting a verification or two would massively help some men on here. However, this site is literally the worst for ghosting, messages being ignored etc... It's a numbers game for sure. But let's not pretend 'Just adding a few more photos' or 'Editing your profile' will in any way help most men on here. I think we just need to be honest - for many, it's just not worth the hassle.
