No shows


We have been on FriendFinder-x as a couple for over a year. We have had chats and emails with people who say they want to meet and have even set up actual dates. But we have been stood up EVERY single time. It does get frustrating, but what is the psychology behind that? Anyone else have these experiences?

It's best to weed out the posers by moving slow.....take your time, and build a trusting relationship first then set up a meeting. You'll have much more success!

You are correct that there a an exceptional number of fakes on here. I have found over time that it can take as many as 10 messages back and forth to weed them out. I go into meetings with low expectations, positive attitude and willingness to be the best for each other and always have a good time. Best of luck to you two and if I can bring a little sunshine into your playtime you only need to reply

Yep, my GF and I have been stood up a few times. I think sometimes on here people are phony and use it to get off. Quite a few are creeps. The thrill of interacting is what turns them on.

If you make a date, you should keep it. You can always have an exit strategy on the meet and greet if there is no connection.

Yeh I had a no show we arranged to meet at the train station and go to my apartment.
I went to the station probably waited close to an hour and she did not show up and did not reply to messages I sent her after asking why she didn't come

I have not had any no-shows but then again I talk to ppl for a while, find the actual ones I am interested in then seal it with some sort of one on one viewing type situation

We have had very similar experiences, in 4 years the people who have stood us up, far outnumber the ones who actually meet. All we can say is "Good Luck"

As others have said, you arent alone. I am a professional grade handsome guy who has apparently been ignored by the females and couples here because of all the low life losers, no shows, and creeps this site has to offer.
I, like you, am really hopeful that the new year will shower me with new opportunities to meet others and develop lasting friendships.
As for why they dont show...probably because they are hiding something. Typically I'd bet they arent supposed to be here in the first place due to some other committment.

I guess some people get scared or unsure and back out...I can understand but it seems like you've had some shitty luck...

The emails and chats and even face to face meets . To get to know someone . Then the actual meet to play is set . Then the cancel . Then they set again and don't even cancel ... Or show . Now that sends my over the top . Why ? What did i do wrong ? All the self doubt and second guessing starts . So i totally get where you are coming from . And i have no simple answer to why it happens . I wish i knew as i would share with everyone . Just keep working at it . As i have also meet some great people on FriendFinder-x as well .
