Why block me?

Why do most females I send images of me to that reside nearby block me? I think there’s a good chance I may know them & they think I’ll expose them.

I feel at almost 6’3 I’m more distinctive than most (there’s only 12% of us above 6’ I hear).

Sex is a part of life! Blocking me only after recognising me goes to exhibit the level of maturity some have, surely, I just hope ‘they’ grow up soon!

I can’t answer for everyone here but there are multiple reasons I block someone.

*They really aren’t what I’m looking for

*Their message style/profile put me off

*If it’s a Forum user and they’ve made some questionable comments that don’t play well with my own personal views

*I block people very local to me as I live in a village and have no wish to be sleeping with anyone on my doorstep.

*they’re known to me. If I know them or recognise them from my everyday life I’ll block them to save us both any awkwardness, give them their privacy and wish them well with their fab experience

There are probably other reasons too but those are off the top of my head at 5am

Have you not thought of the ratio of men to ladies here?!?!?!

I think you need to 'grow up' OP and realise you're a fish in an ocean and no one HAS to reply to you...

Depends what images you are sending. Echo what someone else has said it alsi depends what type of message you are sending too. Women get an awful lot of messages and most I just delete or block as not appropriate, crude, rude or just weird

I don’t think it is because people know you. It is fairly rare to see people you know on here.

If it is happening all the time then I would suggest that it is because of the content of the messages. I don’t know what you are putting in them but it clearly isn’t working.

Sex is part of life for some people but they don't have to have it with you just because you are on here. Your post sounds a little entitled so maybe your messages do too and it could be that which is causing the blocks potentially?

Everyone has a choice and just because you say you’re in a small percentage of tall people doesn’t give you a free pass ..!! I’m 5”2 and bright ginger hair, I don’t go shouting about being blocked, and my Glaswegian accent is a dead giveaway too.. so I get recognised easily, have you ever thought that they just don’t want have to explain themselves or say no.!

We use the block button with ease.. get over it.

A lot of people have a 'don't shit where you eat' philosophy to their lives. You could also be sending the wrong type of message, not reading and understanding their profile or the look of your mush could just be turning them all gay.

I agree with your first point that they may block you because you live nearby or they don't want to be exposed but your final point about levels of maturity is illogical and insulting. Sounds much l ike a petulant teen.

You send a photo, they block you.

Well looks like the majority have a lot of “growing up to do”

I block if I’m not interested, a continuation of messages, very vulgar messages they send the list is endless

And out of the 3 years plus I’ve been here I’ve only had 1 person recognise me because of previous encounters with him

Blocking can be for many reasons as the previous posters have said .. maybe you just need to “grow up”

They find you unattractive. It's simple. They may even find you sooo unattractive they don't like the thought of you jerking off to their pics. They don't want to hurt your feelings. They don't want you to be rude or ab*sive in any follow up messages if they said you weren't their type.

They may know something about you that's not great. Women do support each other and will alert other women to creepy aggressive folk. Just because you're tall doesn't make you desirable at the expense of facial attractiveness.

Just move on and maybe review your approach? Good luck.

I’m not (well, I wasn’t before) shy, & want to get the ball rolling, so I (usually) send an image.

I tell them I’m fully aware of the ratio (& how big it is) & I don’t expect a reply anyway.

I don’t recognise them because I’ve seen no image, (but / so I send mine first).

Not all block me (or reply), & I never send a vulgar message (or any for that matter!) to re-annoy them.

If they can’t handle the sex, maybe they shouldn’t be on here! It’s part of life, but maybe shouldn’t be held in such high regard.

Thank you for all of your responses anyway (even the slanderous ones!). Now I’ll expect more.

I was only asking for reasoning behind their behaviour anyway - not to be berated.

I think much blame lies with the guys who can’t handle rejection, & just HAVE TO BE BLOCKED because they have hurt feelings - I’ve not, though some may reckon so. I was only questioning their actions.

I’ve blocked a few lasses from close to me because they’ve granted everyone access to their images, & though I recognise them, I’m not one to see them on the High St. & proclaim, ‘Oi, I recognise you from FabSwingers’!

I’ve been out of their age parameters anyway, but their stance on the subject may be infectious.

If someone blocked me I would guess they either, hate what I have said to them or in a forum post or they recognise me or they just didn't like the look of me.

Its entirely up to them, and I don't let it bother me.

My maturity in Fab has / is slowly evolving

I was too quick to block in the early days when I should have just left alone …

Now I am more relaxed and ready to just ignore rather than block however, for some women. In here it’s a sensible mathematical solution to an endless suffering of perpetual Idiots. I get it!

A) They don’t recognise you. They just didn’t like your photos or the tone of your message or something else gave them bad vibes, so they blocked you and don’t have to interact with you again.

B) They do recognise you. They don’t want to have sex with you, maybe that’s specific to you or maybe that’s all super local men. Only they know the answer to that. You get blocked and they dont have to worry about bumping into you in the local supermarket and knowing you’ve been stalking their profile on repeat.

Could be A or B or a mix of the two. Either way I don’t think it’s immature or wrong of them.

"You were clearly bothered enough to start a thread about it……"

It was only a topic with an obvious answer I may have overlooked.

The only conclusion that I have is that there’s an abundance of touchy people that feel if they are rejected deem it necessary to pester / annoy the people they messaged - as if it achieves anything!

I have people that have read my message to them & haven’t blocked me - but I’m mature enough to take no response as a ‘Thank you, but no thank you.’

What kind of image are you sending?

If you tell someone you don't expect them to reply some will take that as a negative and cynical outlook that they don't want to engage with. Whatever your reasoning may be, some will take it as deliberately looking pathetic to try and garner a sympathy fuck.

People block for many reasons. Sometimes simply because you're not what they're into and it's better to just remove the option for prolonged contact than leave it open. Acknowledgement of a message often leads to at best further messages saying they understand, or questions why, or sometimes just outright abuse. Many people will choose to avoid opening that door by either not responding or blocking people that they're never going to be interested in.

Personally I'm out at the first use of the word females 💜

"I think its a little weird when random people we have never had a conversation with send us a face picture maybe other's feel the same.. "

I also think it's weird.

I consider sending me a random face photo (that could belong to anyone except the person messaging for all I know at that point), to be as unsolicited as someone throwing their dick pic at me, as I haven't specifically asked for it, nor is it wanted.

I think they do it because they falsely believe like so many others do on here, that sending face pictures is some kind of inarguable proof of authenticity, and by doing so they have automatically captured your trust.

A random face pic without context (i.e without the rest of the persons body and a conversation beforehand) may as well be a random dick pic as far as I'm concerned.

I never send any images of my ‘dick’; just a headshot of my mush. I’ve included my height / build in my profile anyway.

I’m quite prepared to leave them alone & never have I sent a second request having been not answered on my first attempt, but just take it as they’re not interested. I don’t see why my actions should get me blocked . . . . That’s all I’m asking.

No one has to reply to anyone on here

I usually block those who clearly haven't read my profile or who keep messaging despite my not replying

I also will block anyone who lives close to me - I've been on the receiving end of being recognised - and they thought it OK to barrack me when I was with my child. I recognised one of them on here and blocked him. His ego then made it acceptable to talk overtly sexually in front of a child - after following us round our village.

And, just so you know, anyone blocking you or not replying to you or otherwise not stoking the ego you possess - well, they're probably far more mature.

You might. Not everyone does. I don't ask for a face picture with a first message and find it weird when one is attached from someone I've never spoken to.

Blocking is just a way of filtering out the profiles you're not interested in to make it easier to find those that you are. Don't take it as a personal attack 💜

We block people we recognize from our close every day circles (ie, friends of our families, local people we know have connections to our kids, their families). I fail to see why anyone would see that as something negative that means I need to grow up.

We don't care if anyone who knows us does recognize us, it's not going to cause us any problems in any area of our lives, we just prefer keeping the two separate.

Depends where you're from. Mrs has spotted at least a dozen people she knows on here between the town she's from and where she lives now. When she moved back to the northwest the first night we went on fab she recognized three people. One was a family member 😂

Well, even if they don’t ‘fancy it with me’, I’m ultimately a person with nowt to hide. I know I’m not everyone’s ‘cup of tea’, I was just trying to understand people’s conduct.

I’d say a few have taken my questioning it to mean I’m really bothered about it - I’m not, it was only a topic for debate, & I’m sorry if I seem to be desperate for condolence. Can everyone just ‘lighten-up’ please!

I’m friendly towards anyone who messages me: the male body holds no interest for me - but I’ll still reciprocate in the same manner they talk to me.

This lifestyle appeals to me because you’re not required to feed a line of bull-shit to ones prospective partner - (virtually) instantaneous action with no drama!

Re: primary question; I must be too extrovert & expect everyone to respond likewise.

As I have only a little knowledge surrounding the lifestyle, & simply asked why are some the way they are - & if I’m NOT suitable from reading their profile - I won’t message with false hope of getting to see what they look like. If I wanted to do that I’d send an image of some male model from some magazine.

As for ‘things of little importance’, it was only a metaphor to state that something that wouldn’t give their I.D. away, you have my apologies & are welcome to your opinion too, I’m totally open to hear it.

Also, ‘inflections’ can’t be (or are difficult to appreciate) distinguished through this medium of communication.

I’m down pub, so in merry state, & I hold no malice towards anyone.

Much of what I’ve had to write has been misinterpreted - not all, but some people have taken I’m what I’ve said as harsher than what was meant, & I’ve been blocked by others that read their rhetoric & thought they were right (remember the inflections, well someone’s misinterpreted opinion has fuelled the desire for others to interpret them as the person’s who’s written them).

Well thank you for blocking me as well! (even though it’s miles & miles away & I have no intention of meeting them anyway).

I’ll probably awaken later on this morning & regard this as a nightmare - it was only a question!

For everyone: I’m sincerely sorry for the people that have misinterpreted me (& I’m getting more d*unk!)

"Nothing to do with growing up, but could be respecting their own privacy "

Well, some of them have even advertised that any interested send a facial image first - they don’t respond - just block.

There must be some strange males out there for the females to be so ready to push that ‘Block’ button!

& the ‘I’m almost 6’3’ wasn’t meant meant to be anything adding to my attractiveness’, but I’m in the 12% of those people most recognisable because of my height (there’s less people to consider when seeking me out) - or am I being pedantic now?

"You send a photo, they block you.

Brutal truth is that they don’t fancy you, and blocking is the easiest way of saying no thanks and getting o comeback from it. "

This and some of the other similar comments … basically they aren’t interested. Move on x

" Why do most females I send images of me to that reside nearby block me? I think there’s a good chance I may know them & they think I’ll expose them.

Blocking me only after recognising me goes to exhibit the level of maturity some have, surely, I just hope ‘they’ grow up soon!"

probably because like most men you send pictures to people on your first message without a thought on whether that person would want you to see them and don't pay attention to what a profile says and their age ranges so you're no doubt complaining about women and couples in their 20s and 30s blocking a man in his 50s sending them pictures they don't want to see they are 100% in the right to block you that's exactly the kind of behaviour the button is for

You haven’t

Maybe others have

Blocking means they don’t show in your searches, so there’s no chance of you messaging them again in a months time when you’ve forgotten that you messaged in the first place. It also means you don’t show in their searches and therefore helps them filter when they’re looking for a meet.

So, you're lying about yourself to trick your romantic partners as they wouldn't like you if they knew the real you, and you're on a website you just described as "virtual instantaneous action" complaining that you're getting blocked by the people you seem to think are lined up waiting for you.

It’s expected that they don’t answer if not interested - I even write that when I message (no response necessary).

If they fail to answer I can only feel sorry for them having to endure seemingly endless abuse from disgruntled males . . . . . That’s all I’m saying.

It's not about being scared of being found out, it's about prioritizing and respecting your responsibilities. For example, we have kids. Now, if the adult ones were to find out about this profile organically, that's a whole lot different to if it had been outed/spread around at an age where it's going to cause problems for them. What you're describing as "being scared" is just general consideration and living a life that has more than one need to consider.

"I’m not (well, I wasn’t before) shy, & want to get the ball rolling, so I (usually) send an image.

I tell them I’m fully aware of the ratio (& how big it is) & I don’t expect a reply anyway.

I don’t recognise them because I’ve seen no image, (but / so I send mine first).

Not all block me (or reply), & I never send a vulgar message (or any for that matter!) to re-annoy them.

If they can’t handle the sex, maybe they shouldn’t be on here! It’s part of life, but maybe shouldn’t be held in such high regard.

Thank you for all of your responses anyway (even the slanderous ones!). Now I’ll expect more.

I was only asking for reasoning behind their behaviour anyway - not to be berated.

I think much blame lies with the guys who can’t handle rejection, & just HAVE TO BE BLOCKED because they have hurt feelings - I’ve not, though some may reckon so. I was only questioning their actions.

I’ve blocked a few lasses from close to me because they’ve granted everyone access to their images, & though I recognise them, I’m not one to see them on the High St. & proclaim, ‘Oi, I recognise you from FabSwingers’!

I’ve been out of their age parameters anyway, but their stance on the subject may be infectious."

"If they can't handle the sex, maybe they shouldn't be on here"?

Who says they can't handle "the sex" just because they don't want it with you.

It's not an extreme. It's simply a tool for filtering the site and making their experience easier in finding what they want.

Someone hasn't replied to you. They're not interested. So why do you need to be able to see their profile any more? It helps save you time on reading profiles you've already had a no from instead of getting all the way through it before the site reminds you that you've messaged them before after you've forgotten you already messaged them.

It's saving time and making your search easier too.

Blocking isn't an extreme. As long as you think of it as such you're going to have a hard time on here. Because you will be blocked. Often. And usually without malice 💜

Different people block for different reasons. Some block anyone who is of no interest to them. They maybe saw you message (probably read your profile before the message) decide you were not for them so blocked you.

Others might be too close to you in distance and they don't like it.

I made the point about reading your profile as there are a couple of bits on there that raise some red flags for me but I won't be helping you by telling you what they are. Women are very intuitive creatures and if they get a bad vibe from your profile it won't matter what you write in your message or what your picture looks like.

"I’ve just seen this in an ad: No response is a response!

Quite right, only block one if one becomes a pest with messages full of vulgarity."

People are free to block for whatever reason they wish. There are no rules on when to block someone.

You want to know something funny. I was reading a profile last night and I was blocked while I was there. I hadn't messaged or sent a wink to them. I was just looking. Now I'm getting preemptively blocked. Beat that one. 😆

Well, some of them have even advertised that any interested send a facial image first - they don’t respond - just block.

There must be some strange males out there for the females to be so ready to push that ‘Block’ button!"

It's not down to any any rules it's simply how they prefer to run their own profile. If you don't like it that's a you problem.

The question might end up being “why not block you” ?

Just go with flow and you sound confident enough so let others be themselves.. questioning this shows a tad of immaturity and not really the place to question other people’s “reasons” to do anything here …we all have reasons to be here and block is a tool everyone has.... let it be .. !

It’s expected that they don’t answer if not interested - I even write that when I message (no response necessary).

If they fail to answer I can only feel sorry for them having to endure seemingly endless abuse from disgruntled males . . . . . That’s all I’m saying.

Dude you may need to back down just a tad.

We block those we aren’t interested in so we don’t waste time in finding them again or seeing them in searches. There’s no malice, nothing other than that person/couple is not for us and we aren’t interested.*

Taking it to heart like you are will get you nowhere and neither will arguing in the forums.

If anyone has particular interests please let me know ahead of time so I can pack the art supplies, climbing gear, scuba equipment as this as a fully inclusive group, as long as you are 6'2" and under

We've blocked people we're not interested in just to save us the effort of viewing their profile in the future, it's just good housekeeping. I can't comment on what reasons you (OP) have been blocked for but your profile, and some of your responses, are not easy to read. The whole text seems to be smothered in brackets (), backslashes/,speech marks "" and commas. Perhaps a review of this might help your success rate.

I ask for a face pic with first message- my bugly is up so it's only fair and yes, I've blocked based on someone's appearance (probably shallow to a point but im sure it's been don't to me too at points and it's Fab life). And, yes, just as with all walks of life, there are some utter oddbods on here too. Anyone on here can and should use the block button to protect their own interests

It's perhaps 1% of people who will find you attractive, if you're lucky. They see the physical you and assess the rest of you, including personality. It's going to be way less than 1% who you should expect not to block you.

There's never any requirement to say no thanks. Blocking makes it clear and simple for all. No further wasted contact

Right, I'm actually going to make a meaningful contribution to this thread, though the WhatsApp Group, the coach trip and the lottery syndicate have all be great blessings.


"There is nothing in the profile and pictures that would entice us to message, if you messaged us with your profile the way it is and the message contained less than 10 words you would be blocked straight away.

More pictures, not of your cock and a better description of yourself would give you a bit of a chance"

This is taken verbatim from a different thread where its the usual single male asking "what's wrong with my profile, why am I blocked?"

Simply put they aren't into you (the generic sender of the message, not making digs at the OP), you don't know their history and what they have experienced before and what they are looking for.

Red flags are very obvious on static profiles as we can't always change how we deliver the information or back it up, no one wants to read a PhD thesis in a profile.

Do you give a damn what someone online says about your politics? About the perceived value and worthiness of your job?

And for everyone who makes these and those kinds of thread.... suck it up buttercup and take you butthurt elsewhere.

It's entirely possible that it has nothing to do with recognising you and needing to grow up, but rather not finding you attractive and blocking to not waste anyone's time.

If I’m not interested, I block. I encourage people to do the same.

It’s simple! Saves wasting time and getting repeat messages in a few weeks.

Nobody on this site is entitled to a reply, nobody should expect a response.

As nice as it sometimes could be to get a response to say “I know you” or “you’re not my type” or “I’m not attracted” or so on. Not everyone is emotionally stable enough to handle a rejection. Sometimes people reply with abuse. Sometimes people play a number of angles to get you to change your mind. It’s often easier to block and close the door.

Some profiles receive hundreds of messages a day and I wouldn’t blame them for deciding not to waste their time replying where they aren’t interested.

Some see it as rude but we all signed up to fab for our own reasons and our own pleasure. I’m not here to waste others time as well as my own, that’s why I’m block happy and appreciate a block off others

"I can’t answer for everyone here but there are multiple reasons I block someone.

*They really aren’t what I’m looking for

*Their message style/profile put me off

*If it’s a Forum user and they’ve made some questionable comments that don’t play well with my own personal views

*I block people very local to me as I live in a village and have no wish to be sleeping with anyone on my doorstep.

*they’re known to me. If I know them or recognise them from my everyday life I’ll block them to save us both any awkwardness, give them their privacy and wish them well with their fab experience

There are probably other reasons too but those are off the top of my head at 5am"

Very similar to our reasons. We even just block people who we don’t vibe with over a single message, if it’s not there, we block and move on, it’s not personal, it’s just our own filtering clean up process

OP you do sound very entitled.

This evening I logged into Fab for first time in weeks only to receive 11 messages from males who all seem to think I’ve logged in for sex, more so with them, I have no idea who they are but my response’s have been respectful and honest with a “no thanks, but good luck with your search” only to have half of them send me abuse and the other half trying to persuade me and not taking no for answer. I have absolutely no interest or intention in meeting them but if men act like that with all females then it’s no wonder most are blocked straight away. It’s tiring.

You may think sex is just part of life but believe it or not we also have right over what happens with our own body and we’re not answerable to anyone including you as to why we’re not interested. As I say I was respectful and polite, maybe I should just block men in future!

I can see how much pressure the males are capable of delivering to females & you’re (rightfully) distrusting of the applicants that you’ve quite easily managed to generate - I’ll end on requesting you to please don’t ‘tar us wall with the same brush’ though. 👍
