They saw you looking, checked you out, and didn't like what they saw. To prevent you wasting your time messaging them, they blocked you. Sounds fair to me.

Perhaps they only want to meet those who, like them, show some pics.

I can't have public pics on my profile due to my job, I do however state I have pics available.

I didn't actually look at their profile, all I saw was one pic

Public pics don't have to reveal your identity you know.

I work in a prominent position in a huge multinational that pretty much everyone worldwide knows! My city isn't that big and I'm quite well known internally and externally. I'm pretty sure noone could guess who I am from seeing the pics I have! No pics = alarm bells!!

What a load if tosh!

If you walked past me in the street would you know who I was from the pics I have on display on here?

As someone else said, public pics don't have to be of your face.

I couldn't tell u whether or not I am blocked by anyone cos I don't browse the profiles other than the ones who have looked at me! So is no skin off my nose if I'm blocked or not.

Why make a fuss about it? It's their decision, they didn't like your profile and decided they didn't want to hear from you. No drama.

I think you need to take a step back and look at yourself no disrespect intended as your taking things to personally in relation to your search .

They did what they thought was best for them the why's and wherefores are nether here nor there in respect to there decision .

They did what was best for them all they did was block you there was no harsh words or anything like that.

It should mean nothing to you in the grand scene of things because its nothing by that I mean so what do you really want to look at the profiles of people who are not interested in you .

Best thing to do is shrug your shoulders and move on not even giving the whole incident a second thought .

After all there's plenty more fish in the sea

Because I don't understand the logic?

Just because someone lives "close" to me, I ain't gonna search for them and block them just by virtue of that?..

You have no Face pics up?..you could be anyone.

Unless your getting harrassed or XYZ...then..

I don't see where the problem is. But like you say it's your choice it just doesn't make sense to me bit odd.

...but then again it makes no difference to me, I live miles away.

So you didn't type "So a new couple join fab, post pics. I see on the updates page they have posted pics so have a look." in your opening post?

Must have misread that then!

Ironically, I've just blocked a stranger who was wanting me to pick them up. I pointed out I don't know them from Adam, so it wasn't going to happen and their reply was I could get to know them in the car. So I blocked him, as I didn't really fancy having to send another message justifying my decision then possibly getting another reason why I should acquiesce.

Would many peeps pick up a total stranger and take them out with them?

After six years still amazed people get upset, to the point of starting threads, if they are blocked by strangers.

You can almost hear the "how DARE they! Don't they know who I am?"

You're not for them, they don't want what you're selling, get over it!

Well I guess we never know why ppl block others. I have blocked ppl I have been abused by for not replying or just ones who can't take no for an answer but it's like everyone says their choice and we just have to accept it and move on

If people don't want to put any type of public pic up then it's there prerogative. Possibly you won't be identified at work if you have a chest shot for instance but you are not obliged to put any up. Don't make excuses for it, just say I'm not putting any pics up.

Accept people will block you, for any number of reasons. It doesn't really matter, it's not an insult. Don't compromise yourself for others but accept that you won't be of interest to many people.

Its a fact of life. Get used to it happening. If somebody blocks you they have a reason, you may not agree with it but that's just hard luck.

Don't you know that women have no fecking logic?

Because of where I live and the 'who's near' as well as the Distance indicator on your profile that tells you how far the person is it would be VERY obvious who I am to those local to me. And you won't be that far tonight so mind your arse
