I tried Feabs when it first started back in 2012/2013. I still check it maybe once a year out of morbid curiosity, and see a lot of the same faces that were there before still posting regularly. I suppose it works for some!
I never met anyone new in person on there, but did start talking to quite a few interesting women while I was active. There was a reoccurring issue though.
I'd like to think I'm excellent at communicating my intentions, but on more than a few occasions, I would be messaging casually with someone, and when the matter of meeting up came up, I would say something like "Absolutely! We should meet up sometime." (I kind of wanted to continue talking to someone a little first, so I know I'm meeting a someone I'd get along with when I'm not stuffing them full of copious amounts of food or fucking) and I would continue the conversation normally, hoping to gett to know them a bit more.
On a few occasions, the other person would freak out, acting bitter like I ended the conversation or wasn't into meeting them. I'm not about to rush into driving hundreds or miles or having someone visit me who I barely know- but so many women were willing to dive head first into meeting, regardless of distance or situation.
Same thing would happen if I didn't message someone back for more than a day. It was the days before the app, and I usually like to keep myself busy.But again, women on Feabie would get angry and assume I wasn't interested and end the conversation if I didn't respond soon enough to their liking.
The fact that this happened more than once with at least half a dozen people (some of whom I STILL see posting on the main feed) is interesting. I can understand being jaded on a site like that, men are terrible, and I'll be first to admit it. Most dudes suck at banter and general correspondence, and message girls like they have their dick in their hand. But I was surprised to see so many women just saying "fuck it" without any patience or even asking for (or even being interested in) clarification.
There are some cool, accepting, and genuinely hilarious folks on the site, but there's also a lot of tools, regardless of gender. I do worry that it suffers from being an echo chamber of sorts, it just seems like people on that site create and perpetuate drama where it's really not needed. Some folks seem to treat it more like Twitter than a fetish website, or seem to take it way to seriously. At the end of the day, isn't it mostly a dating/hookup site or a place to express yourself within your fetish?
