Sick of sending a face to then being blocked

near you .. but not too near

Can I offer a suggestion please? .. Can this site not make it fairer for everybody but particularly men who when asked to send a face picture. Of course invariably the guy sends it and then is blocked straight away with no reciprocated picture sent. If there was significant distance between those people I wouldn't bother but when engaging with locals on here discretion gets very difficult to maintain. This is why I only really chat to women a good distance away and not in my town, but surely there can be another way..

Can identifying pictures be held in a kinda joint location between two profiles and both will only be released to the other party if both parties have sent such a picture to it to be sent. If one party doesn't allocate or send an identifying face picture to the kinda middleman (like an escrow account) then they won't receive a identifying picture of the other person.

Surely this will guard against people who recognise you and then don't send a picture of themselves but unfairly they know who you are and you don't know who they are ..

And for the record no I'm not cheating on anybody 🙄

How do you know they're blocking because they recognise you?

I get sent face pics. If I'm not attracted to them, I won't be meeting them and I don't send a face pic in reply. Could this be happening to you?

It's just how it is

Maybe they recognise you, maybe they don't fancy you and didn't feel like debating that

If they've blocked you and your face didn't end up all over the place I wouldn't worry too much

Happens to everyone

A block is pretty damn clear - no more contact or association desired, in the strongest possible way.

For better or worse, that's not the norm here, and it isn't likely to change.

(The reason I never say thanks but no thanks is that it attracts abuse. And I know that you would never do that, but everyone says they wouldn't do it, and yet the abuse happens)

Nobody owes you a message. A block is a pretty clear message saying sorry not for me. I don't understand why it needs to be a written message for you to get it.

I think a good many of the replies haven't read my opening message .. this isn't about not replying and whatever clear message blocking is supposed to say (other than I'm ignorant and can't be arsed saying sorry not for me thanks). The point here is giving away your identity when they haven't. A mutual temporary Holding location for both identifiable pictures from each party only release to the opposite person on receipt of same from both parties. It's just a simple bit of IT programming surely.

Tbf if you choose to send a face pic that’s your prerogative, you’re in no way entitled to receive one back if they don’t choose to share it. If it turns out your not to that persons taste, why would they send one in return? That would just be worse as it would be leading you on.

Fab's rules have always been very clear that no reply = no thanks. A block makes it certain and prevents future wasted efforts.

Women are especially vulnerable to trouble, after being identified, including stalking and attacks

Two people have to find each other attractive to move things forward OP . You are gallant enough to send your face photo which has not had the desired effect . There really is no point in a woman reciprocating if she is not going to take it further . It feels hurtful I know but she has to protect herself and prior experience will have told her this is the best way.

I do see what your saying OP, for each person to upload a pic to a neutral place and once each person sees the other they decide to respond.

I'm sure you are looking at it from a safety perspective of one person's pic is seen but the other doesn't send a pic so it can feel a but scary....but it's individual choice to send, you don't have to, and if it's demanded then that should be a red flag for people

We do this a nice sorry not for me (the female) and then we normally block, only because it’s stops another message weeks/months later down the line asking to chat and see how we get on.

But we have found after a while a new profile is set up and then another message but it’s the same guy again with the same photo.

If the person asked for a pic of someone maybe the confusion comes from not having a reply to the mail saying something like you are not for me thanks anyway. They could obviously still block after that so they don't get any other mails

I think it is like a chicken and an egg thing, who goes first, do you take the chance they are not going to send back. Although we didn't used to send pics (when we were meeting as we used to show face on a webcam instead while having a conversation ) I (Mrs ) would probably have not sent a pic out if someone asked for it first, just incase they didn't send me one back.

I can understand your concerns OP, men can be vulnerable the same as anyone else, but if someone is on here for the same reason as you then they would hopefully have the same discretion as you.

I don't know if what you are asking is doable but to what you suggest you would still have to show your face somewhere and they still may recognise you. You have to decide if sending it is worth your worry of someone knowing you if you do.

Sending a face pic, especially when you don’t have one on your profile is a good thing, but it doesn’t mean they have to like you.

You could be one of 20 or 30 or more messages that day, they can’t reply to all, maybe when they have said no thanks, the guy keept messaging, so it’s easier to block.

There should be a “Thanks, but no thanks” reply, that blocks any further messages but not access to the profile.

A genuine tip, send a message, then delete it, that way you won’t be invested in something that probably won’t happen.

I actually ask to be blocked in my profile if I'm not for someone I think its best that way i know in ab years time I'll probably approach them again .

Saying that if I've been chatting for someone for 2 or 3 days and then send a face pic I would expect "sorry you're not my type " at least out of curtesy , I can understand if they know me why they'd not want to send a pic back if someone I know sent me a face pic I'd probably not send one back either .

New fake profiles appear all the time I do worry about the face pics I've sent out in the past !

What a good idea a block from messaging be a good new feature maybe it could have options too like block anyone from more than 30 miles away so someone doesn't get messages from all over the country!!

I think sending a face picture is an act of trust. Probably the first, if you meet the person.

If you can't trust the person to treat your picture appropriately, can you trust them in an intimate setting?

People need to take a leap of faith. Sometimes that doesn't work out. I imagine that abuse of face pictures (identifying people, etc) is pretty rare, so rare that it doesn't need a whole bespoke system.

(If abuse of face pictures happens, it should be treated harshly, but I don't think that's what's being discussed here - this feels more like unfairness. Sometimes life isn't fair 🤷‍♀️)

I never do. Surely Fab should at least ask that a couple of public pictures are added to every profile before it goes live and get photo verified I know people could still upload fake ones but at least le out a lot of false profiles.

People don't have time to say thanks but no thanks to dozens/hundreds of people. You just need to get over yourself and your idea that you're entitled to a reply.

I think we get it.

You can't handle the fact that people don't always reciprocate.

Rather than accepting that it's an act of trust you need to go through, which won't always be rewarded (and is rarely abused), you want a system set up to institute what you call fairness. A technological infrastructure to ensure you see all the faces of all the people who aren't attracted to you.

That, and some subject drift, has been discussed in this thread.

But I suppose, as the flip side to the "typical modern", it's very typical decrepit to assume that you're right, and that anyone who disagrees can't read.

I kind of get what you are saying but some people are more happy to share face pictures than others early on in messaging. What if for instance you send your face pic and the other person/couple knows you and for some reason won't want you to know that they actually swing?

It sounds like you want a face pic in reply to the face pic you send regardless of whether the recipients are interested in you.

Why would people do that? You insist you want to be discreet but don't believe that your correspondents would require the same.

If there's no mutual attraction, there's no point sending a picture in reply.

To the men asking for a reply saying “no thanks”. We’ve tried this and often just get abuse in return “good, your Mrs is fat anyway.” So it’s easier to just follow the rules of the site that says no reply is a “no thanks”.

The amount of effort couples have to put in to get the level of honesty and acceptance in their relationships to get into this lifestyle only to get “single men” chucking them abuse for saying no thanks.

The power lies with women and couples due to the numbers game. If you don’t like that. Leave the site…

If I’m chatting with someone and they send a face pic I’ll delete it if I’m not interested or if I recognise them. As a woman on the site we get inundated with messages. We can’t reply to everyone. As per fabs guidelines a deleted message is a polite no thanks. No one owes you anything. I appreciate sometimes it’s a bummer but we gotta suck it up and move on.

I expect to exchange face pics within the first few messages not days 🫣 I need to know I’m physically attracted to the person and if I’d been chatting for days I would feel like I’d been leading them on if I eventually saw their face pic and there was no attraction. If no face pic is on the initial message I generally send mine and ask for one in return at the same time which most times we receive.

Purely for safety reasons, absolutely not.

That's what you're not thinking about from a man's perspective.

Imagine having the worry of someone you aren't interested in trying to approach you in public? Because they can't take no for an answer. I mean they do it in messages all the time, so I don't think they'd think twice in real life either.

This site hasn't been updated since 1998. This isn't going to happen anytime this century unfortunately.

And yes, it can be uneasy to have your photo out there, but I think I can speak on behalf of a lot of women on this site and say, we aren't looking at your profile or pictures ever again if we've blocked you.

And with the amount of messages received by women, there is a less than 1% chance you'd have done or said anything so memorable to warrant someone going back to your profile after you've been blocked.

Hope that helps

Manners, respect cost nothing.

Shame that's been forgotten.

My way around this is talking to them first, if they are interested enough from our conversation then I’d suggest Ftime or tgram on cam so we both see each other at the same time, a non negotiable for me, if they don’t want to do that then that’s the end of that.

My face is on my profile so if someone wants me to be interested then I want a face pic. I don't know if I think someone is attractive or not without knowing what they look like.

I guess I'm just not cagey about being seen on here. I understand some will be though.

They just don't find you attractive that's all. I've done it and had it done to me.

I live in a very small town and I've never recognised anyone who's sent a face pic and lives here. Just forget about it, you are over thinking it way too much.

"That’s why I don’t send pictures anymore, especially if you private your pictures, if you are asking me for face pics you will have to send one with your message "

You have face pics on your profile

I think if a profile is demanding a face picture they should have one on there profile and this is primarily a.sex meet app not a beauty contest

I don’t think they need to have one on their profile but should be prepared to send one if you ask for one. It’s a swinging site with some people using it for a sex hook up site, anyone can use it as they wish, it’s not a beauty contest but people are not going to want to have sex with you if they are not attracted to you. It’s not a strange concept, in the vanilla world people only sleep with people they are sexually and physically attracted to , it’s no different on here, if anything especially with couples they already have someone they fancy and love to play with on tap so they can afford to be fussy and only go for someone that they find attractive. We don’t invite anyone into the bedroom that we don’t fancy and why would we?

That was quite a hard read but what I’ve got from the jumbled text is that you don’t care who you fuck or what they look like. That kind of thing is a red flag for most couples or single women as they will want to feel desired not just you will ‘ fuck anything with a pulse ‘ that in its self will be enough for you not to be successful. Also just because you fuck anything doesn’t mean couples or women will, if anything as I mentioned earlier we are more likely to be fussy because we can be. Unicorns are rare so they get inundated with messages so they can pick and choose who they see and likely to only see people they fancy. Your approach won’t work that much.

"On a slight tangent I find profiles with no pictures showing at all unjust when in the bio it says no face pictures no chat.....as if you would just send your face picture to someone you have not even seen anything of.

Don't message someone who asks for unreasonable things.

I never do. Surely Fab should at least ask that a couple of public pictures are added to every profile before it goes live and get photo verified I know people could still upload fake ones but at least le out a lot of false profiles. "

Why should they?

If you see a profile with no pictures then just scroll past 🤷🏾‍♀️

It's not mean or horrible, it's just a clear message that they are not for you. Would you actually feel any better if they sent a message saying thanks for your face pic but now I've seen you I'm not interested? Both ways of doing it give you the same message.

For goodness sake this type of thing comes every day, to the O P based on your post it comes across as you feel entitled.

Whether someone is in your area or hundreds of miles away if someone decides they do not want to go further.

Respect people's wishes its that simple nobody is obliged to respond to a wink or message.

Moaning is not a good look

Spot on. Suck it up and move. My friend who is a single woman gets at least 200 messages a day. There isn't enough time for her to go through them all, let alone reply.

"Can I offer a suggestion please? .. Can this site not make it fairer for everybody but particularly men who when asked to send a face picture. Of course invariably the guy sends it and then is blocked straight away with no reciprocated picture sent. If there was significant distance between those people I wouldn't bother but when engaging with locals on here discretion gets very difficult to maintain. This is why I only really chat to women a good distance away and not in my town, but surely there can be another way..

Can identifying pictures be held in a kinda joint location between two profiles and both will only be released to the other party if both parties have sent such a picture to it to be sent. If one party doesn't allocate or send an identifying face picture to the kinda middleman (like an escrow account) then they won't receive a identifying picture of the other person.

Surely this will guard against people who recognise you and then don't send a picture of themselves but unfairly they know who you are and you don't know who they are ..

And for the record no I'm not cheating on anybody 🙄"

Hang on, you have a hidden profile. That is funny as fuck.

It happens to women too.

It is rare for me to send my face first but when I do.. I've been blocked a few times.

Don't take it personally.

It maybe recognition, maybe not their type.

Feel free to inbox your face. (OP only)

It's not about fairness, it's the reality of a site like this.

If it upsets you that much, maybe it isn't for you.

In my experience when a guy sends a face picture and l dont find him attractive l will reply with thanks lm really not interested, lm usually met with a barage of insults. So not replying is the easiest option. Mutual attraction is everything
