Curious about people's experiences when attending social events...

Have you come across people you

have rejected/blocked?

Have you been approached by people who have harassed you online?

Feel free to share your stories

Thankfully no.

But I might have a few choice words if it ever were to happen, lol.

It has so far been enough to block, forget and move on

I have to say yes... Happened on two occasions that I can count, both by guys trying to "turn me", one actually approached me in person and the other luckily was only online. Kinda just brush them off and move on.

I've had one guy I told on here that I told I wasn't interested in meeting him chat to me for a few mins at a mng.It was fine he hadn't been abusive or anything when I had told him I didn't want to meet and was the same when we spoke for a few mins that night.

I've never come across anyone I blocked but if I did I most likely would not want anything to do with them,if they are blocked they are blocked for a reason.

Probably... but we pay no heed to that stuff.

The worst thing was unintentionally blanking people we've met before as we have terrible memory for faces.

Laura once spent a while talking to a dude being friendly and she didn't realise she fucked him before and forgot. Oops

Ah no! We've totally forgotten people we've chatted with, probably one or two we've been with

Sounds sooo terrible but awful memory + large enough number + ONS...

I flare at the thought of anyone being abusive to Mrs. in person after we've told them no thank you on Fab.. people can lose their heads in a bad way on here and we're very easy to spot

On a previous profile I had to block a guy who was extremely abusive in a chatgroup. He was removed for his predatory and inappropriate behaviour. I found out later he had been removed from almost every chatgroup he had been in for following women home and on a few occasions using another fabbers home while he was working in it to fuck his fb's.

He turned up at a social last year under false pretences and tried to start a conversation with me and seemed to know a lot about me and what my previous profiles were.

I ignored him as best I could but he used the veries he received that day to get invitations to other socials and as a number of women have since discovered he hasn't changed his ways.

Back in Cork, I was blocked by 3 couples who said they don't meet with none Irish, which was okay, no issue here. Everyone is within their right to have a personal preference.

Ran into one of them at an event, and we had an amazing chat, which developed to a steamy saucy night at the hotel.

Only after the event when it came to verifications that we realized we both blocked eachothers a while ago. It was sooo funny

We are still good friends and met a few times after that

In another context, I recently twice came across a guy (with his wife) who had been abusive to me nearly three decades ago; furthermore they had previously invited me to a meal in their home, but when we went shopping at a local deli, I was informed that I would have to pay for my share of the meal!

At our recent encounters, that I suspected were not entirely accidental, I simply shunned them, even though they were seated right to me, especially on the second occasion.

When they left and walked away they were quite visibly shocked by my complete failure to even acknowledge their presence

They had previously insulted me; I was simply returning the favour by totally blocking them.

I won't hear from them ever again, I am certain!

Had met a guy before and blocked him after found he was mouthing about me behind my back. He approached at a social couldn't take a hint,grabbed me so hard had bruises left on me. Tried to force contact via phone and messaging apps even after my dad died as a way to give abuse. Pure scumbag

"Have yet to block anyone on this site and doubt I ever will. Can’t block people in real life. People have become too sensitive online"

Ah true but there are other measures you can take in the real world.

You might not be taking harassment into account. Blocking people isn't necessarily a response to an offence or perceived slight, but could be due to repeated, unwanted overtures... Which would certainly be dealt with appropriately in person.

Blocking is simply the easiest and often most appropriate solution to this problem online.

Very true, no excuse for harassing someone at all.

I find someone blocking a person without ever having interacted with them is baffling

Not if it's used as another filter. Most of those in my block list are only there because we have nothing in common and they keep appearing in local updates with inane statuses so by blocking them it leaves that page more relevent.

Also when someone repeatedly mentions you by name in their status and makes suggestions for what type of pics you should post next it's better to block so they can't see anymore.

Some of us also use blocking to remember who not to reach out to, as an alternative to the "private note" function, which is slightly more cumbersome.

For example, we've blocked people we've never spoken to before so we don't make the mistake of messaging them when they're clearly not interested in us based on their explicit profile details, e.g. we're too short, our sexuality is too open, we're too local to them, etc.

I wouldn't say it's baffling. I've seen people who have grudges with others on the forums take said grudges to private mails to either them or the people they've verified. Some got around this by using the UNLOS mails (send a mail from a different profile and delete said profile after it was sent) thankfully fab remedied that by said mails disappearing when the profile was deleted. Some would rather not chance bitter people mailing them and just block. Makes for a very peaceful fab experience

There's so many people at some socials I wouldn't know where to start

Although at the last social I saw someone I had a problem with previously so I just stayed away from him completely for the weekend so our paths never crossed

Many have an endless block list, so I'd assume there's a good chance of bumping into a blocked fabber at a social or party.
