FabSwingers.com forum: Is it OK to thank people for looking at your profile?

By (user no longer on site) OP

I used to message anyone looking at my profile and just say "thank you for looking at my profile" I stopped a little while ago because I wondered if people just thought I was being a bit creepy. What do others do? I'm assuming couples and single women just ignore as they don't have the time, whereas us single guys only get a few views a day/week

There’s one couple that view me all the time like multiple times a day at the weirdest times and it’s been going on for ages. No interaction or anything. Made me feel a bit weird so messaged about it. Nothing. Considering blocking but feels a bit harsh.

I don't think it's creepy - just odd. You might as well write to every company that puts a flier through your door.

I reckon it would be very rare to get a response. If they had wanted to communicate with you they are like to have done it when they were looking at your profile.

I think it’s borderline creepy. Sometimes I click on a profile by accident so it would just be awkward. I don’t really look very often but if they wanted to contact they'd wink or message

And couples.

OP you don't know if you'll be interested in a profile til you look.

And when you look you may well be interested. But equally you may no. And sometimes you may find yourself reaching for the eye bleach and wishing you possessed a time machine to go back to before you clicked on that very profile.

If you haven't received a message then there's no need to thank them for looking.

Do you reply to all the junk mail that drops through your letterbox and every bit of spam email that hits your inbox, just to thank the sender for thinking of you?

Hey apologies fella, I didn’t actually realise you’d started the thread. What a Buffoon I am.

I hope all’s good.

It’s a good profile name

I'm nosey. I will look at profiles for a huge variety of reasons, and I really don't need a message about it.

Hi Bella, thanks for being a nosey cow..... no ta!

I look in shop windows all the time, doesn't mean I want an email to appreciate my looking.

I wouldn't message them just for looking OP, or even if they fabbed a pic. Only if they winked me would I message because they've actually shown interest

It would give me a strong internal NO if I was thanked for looking.

Whether I looked with intent or by accident

Sounds a bit desperate to be entirely honest.

Also, you don't know if they dropped their phone and ran off screaming or had to bleach their eyeballs after looking. Looking doesn't mean liking.

We're all worrying about how many eyeballs we've caused to be bleached now!

You don’t know the reason they looked at your profile in the first place.. maybe you wrote something and they were curious about the person behind the post…

So yes, tad creepy… sorry

It's a bit cringey I think...

If they've not winked or fabbed a pic, given no indication they liked your profile, why would you thank them?
