Ok single guys how long do you give it before you delete your sent messages?

Me - about two weeks then I just delete and block for about four to six months then try again if no response then after two weeks delete and block.

What do you other guys do knowing that women on here will get loads of messages and won’t read all of them?

You should delete them as soon as you send them and then you won't have to worry about whether they are read or not

Why block? Just delete them straight away then there's no temptation to sit staring at the "Unread" all day.

I wait a while, normally a few days and then delete and block, if they are read and no reply i wait till the day after and then block not intended to be nasty by blocking but if someone clearly is not interested then i dont want to message them again; just now and again some profile has such sexy pics, i delete the message hotlist them and enjoy the pics without bothering them again. but everyone does what they think is right for them, there is no one size fits all solution to anything on Fab.

Secret hideaway in the pennines

I used to delete all new contact messages after they had been sent, as I have stopped looking it isn't an issue now anyway

STOP. OBSESSING. OVER. YOUR. SENT. MAIL. BOXES!

All it does is upset and frustrate you lol its out there for people to do with what they wish. Rqad it. Delete it. Read it then reply. Read it then not reply. Mark unread. You lose control.

The right place

I don’t delete them. But I don’t stress about getting replies. People have busy lives and not everyone will want to reply.

I don’t obsess. I might not come on here for a few days sometimes weeks so if after a while there’s no reply setting as a lot of people don’t spend a lot of time on here either I delete and block

I block so I’m not tempted to message again

Your message may not have been read for several reasons.

It’s hidden amongst several other hundreds of messages.

Sent at the wrong time, that person isn’t on or communicating with someone else.

They’re on the forums and not meeting.

They’re not interested in your message, after looking at your profile.

They’re not interested as your message is generic.

They’re not interested even with a well thought out message.

They’re just not interested

Delete when sent and hope for a reply and if no reply, just enjoy your day

I understand all that I just rather not have a message hanging there like a limp dick at a lesbian orgy. I haven’t and don’t send frequent messages one or two a month

Self deprecation failure

True I over think and disappear for a few months then do the same again. Maybe should delete messages straight away as well.

Then add to your status, that you’d appreciate your messages to be deleted, replied to etc.. if they’re not interested. As the majority of people who receive plenty of messages, generally read the guys profile first before deciding to reply or not.
