What’s with single guys on fab eh, blocked because we don’t just agree to meet them within 5 minutes of chatting and because my wife prefers husband to do the talking and finding a few suitable guys that have what we are looking for. |

Are you actually complaining that you are not getting single guys messaging you?
If people are blocking you, they don’t want to meet you.
Maybe they are getting the impression that the husband is actually a single man (or has an unaware wife), if he is doing all the talking.
I’m not saying that you are fake, but that it may be the impression others get when talking to you?
Not sure how that could be fixed |

You guys have your preferences and no doubt block people that dont meet them.
The single guys in question block because you don't meet their preferences.
All it shows is that you guys aren't the right match....its not a bad thing really.
We used to be all about couples, and we didn't like it when one person had no involvement in messaging....just feels one sided.
I'm sure that the right people for you will turn up soon enough OP. |

There could be a number of reasons for blocking. Some people do it so they don't come across the same account when searching. If you don't match what they are looking for it saves time. Some people block, some don't. |

They’re allowed to have preferences too and with the recent stories in the news of men arranging for other men to r**e their unaware wife then I don’t think a single man wanting to speak to the female of the couple is a bad thing in fact I’d say well done hes being very sensible |

Only being able to speak to the husband is a huge 🚩
There are plenty of ‘couples’ where often it’s “only male playing” or the woman just never seems to be around but the man wants you to talk in explicit detail what you want to do to his ‘partner.’ |

Entitled because they want to speak to the female half of the couple? I would call that sensible not entitled |

This is a simple answer as others touch on but regardless of single or couples everyone is allowed to make choice, no one is obligated to reply to anything personally a quick thanks no thanks is polite but not everyone does.
Just touching on the bit about about people thinking a couples account is actually a single bloke
I am very savvy spotting such accounts and there are quite a lot sadly. |

I think the entitled twats are those who believe that men on fab don't have options and should be grateful for any attention.
I'm polite and respectful in every conversation I've ever had on fab. Unfortunately a large proportion of couples who contact me have zero respect for me as a person and I'm more than happy to block them. |

From the original post it isn’t clear whether you get blocked because you’re not agreeing to meet within 5 minutes of exchanging messages or whether it’s due to only hubby doing the messaging. As the feedback has already highlighted, single guys like some assurance that you are an actual couple and not just another single guy masquerading as a couple. Unfortunately there are plenty of those on fab. As a rule I request a social meet as a first step in order to verify that they are who they say they are. If they are reluctant to do that it might be a sign that they’re not genuine. |

Every time that happens I would just think well that's another dickhead we are glad we didn't meet. |

A big fat LOL at this post… yes, any man is well within his rights to hit that block button on someone he doesn’t feel compatible with, the same you’d exercise the same action if the roles were reversed.
Me personally I’m not meeting no couple on my own without any prior conversation with BOTH halves of the couple. |

Some believe these things don’t apply or they’re exempt from having it happen to them. To say I’m surprised would be a lie because I’ve been here long enough and seen it all. Have had meets in the past where the pre meet comms was all with the male half & they’ve not been overly enjoyable for one reason or another. |

I don't think a man blocking because only the male half of a couple is talking on the profile makes him a dickhead. In fact I think it actually shows intelligence and shows they are someone who actually cares about consent from the woman involved. And he isn't walking in to a set up like so many men on here try to do with their partners. |

I block for dozens of reasons. You've just posted one.
I recently had this private message from a single guy profile
'Man, 49, from Dudley (staying in a Hotel
You just blocked our couples profile So I will do the same'
I'm not sure why the bloke felt the need to tell me. Massive red flag over the couples profile so looks like I was right.
Life goes on. |

The filtering options on here are limited - you can hotlist people you're interested in but there's no way to mark profiles that weren't interested or didn't reply so if you don't want your search results repeatedly showing people who won't reply/meet then the only option is to block. Single guys (in our experience) predominantly want to hook up so it makes sense not to filter out by whatever means available. On other sites we've used they have a thumb up / thumb down option that is not visible to the other party unless both parties Thumbs Up each other. Kinda miss that on Fabs. |

I tend to block people who state they aren’t looking for single guys or I’m out of their age range. There’s no point in me wasting their time as most will reply back saying you don’t match their preference. |

When on a profile, click menu and your private notes.
It allows you to leave a notes as to why they arent suitable.
Its often easier to just block. |
