FabSwingers.com forum: Please tell me if I'm wrong...

mr and I just received a msg from a male fabber who was curious about a meet with us, I naturally had a look at his profile to see what he was about... He wrote that he was a married man and his wife didn't no of the account. This isn't my idea of heaven so politely said no thanks and wished him happy swinging, within seconds he had blocked us. i think this is quite rude for nothing as I was polite, it's not like I was going to track down his wife ffs!!

it might be he blocked you so he doesnt send you any more mail or keep perving at your pics

A lot do this so they don't contact you again. I don't see it as a problem. You said no so there was little need for a reply from him .

If you're not interested in him why are you bothered?...

He had his reasons move on.

Blocking is a site tool which not only stops you being able to see each other's profiles and updates but also removes you from the results of any searches.

Perhaps he was just ensuring that he won't be tempted/sidetracked/distracted by your profile and mail you again mistakenly.

People often use the block function as a filter no need to be offended

I do this if someone i contact is not interested or if i am contacted in same way as it reduces chance of another message being sent at a later date.

In addition i always use the private note section too as back up.

Apparently not on here - people use blocking as an everyday tool to manage their contacts, not as a last resort, as I would normally do.

People don't just block because they are offended or paranoid or have their nose put out of joint. As already said it's simply one of the site tools.

You really shouldn't think it an insult or rude or a comment on you personally.

He simply blocked you to ensure he didn't contact you again.

Yes I get that! Was just voicing my thoughts as usually people tend to just not reply bk instead of choosing to block

if youre not offended and not bothered, he has blocked you, then its all good, , normally ppl say about others getting nasty when they have been told no thanks, , atleast he has just

moved on with little fuss

Think yourself lucky you didn't get a nasty message then blocked before you could reply. It's happened to me not just exclusive to couples and females.

And he's ensuring he doesn't accidentally pester people whose preferences he doesn't match.

Fair point.

If you think that's bad...

I got sent a friend request.

I replied "I'm sorry I don't add random people, I only add those I actually know/chatting to"

She blocked me.

don't sweat it, it's just fab. It's just the way it goes sometimes.

If your not interested, why are you bothered? I would say at a guess 8 out of 10 men on here will have a wife that doesn't know

He did the right thing, he asked, you said no, game over. it keeps his home page tidy and takes you out of the game.

Like the above, but possibly also just to make a point that he's severing ties with people who aren't interested?! It can come across as immature, but then so can cheating on your wife with internet peeps

Why if you're not into meeting him do it worry you ??????????????? people block here for nothing a lot of the time its just fills there time on fab and makes them feel better if people will not meet.

How do you know he blocked you. You obviously must have tried to click on his profile again, why do that if you had said no.

I think you are aghast that a single guy dared to block first. If you weren't bothered you wouldn't have started this thread.

And if a single guy had started this thread complaining that a couple who turned him down had blocked him he would be chastised for whinging and asked why he went back for another peep - was it to perv at pics?..

It isn't a discussion about an individual, its a discussion about peoples actions, perfectly harmless, but enlightening.

It specifically mentions a message from and the actions of a male fabber.

That's a specific member of the site.

Actually he's not the first to block us nor will he be the last I'm sure! I was just simply asking for ppls opinions on it

Thank you, It was intended to be harmless.. If I wanted to be nasty and direct I would have just wrote the mans name instead of saying male fabber

Oh dear oh dear

A single guy decides to block you so that he doesn't contact you again and waste his time and yours!

That's pretty normal for this site, and the block button is a useful tool for anyone to use in whatever way they want.

We wouldn't see it as rude at all!

To be fair, it is about another member as mentioned in the first post.

If the question was "is it normal to block people once they have been rejected" then that would have been fine.

To the OP....the site gives us all the tools to use if we wish, he used them.
