What do you say when ...?

You say no to someone on here and they ask why?

I hate it when this happens but usually say 'I don't fancy you mate', and hope that a tirade of abuse doesn't follow.

No means no

No means no explanation

I just say they're not what I'm looking for and then usually block them. It stops any chance of abuse dead in its tracks.

I never ever say I don't fancy them.

I never ever get abuse.

We try to be respectful in our rejection, explaining that there's no spark for us and wish them well in their search. In general, this has been met with thanks and dignity in their response.

It doesn't happen. They get blocked so we don't waste each others time again

I did respond to a couple that asked why recently,I said if you ask people why then you may not always like the answer

If we dont want somebody we either just delete the message or I tell them why not as nicely as possible. If they still ask why after that (so far nobody has ever done so) then I would just ignore and block them

I just reply with a very simple 'no thanks x' It doesn't really leave it open for discussion.

I don't understand people giving abuse after a simple no

I always just message back "ok have fun" and that's it

Tell them to get over it, and move on buster.

I only ever answered once ( I was tactful and not rude ) and he didn't like it...so I never answer now.

If they don't want a truthful answer in our mailbox then don't ask me a question

If the conversation has been courteous or I'm feeling generous I offer a polite reason, sometimes with some constructive criticism and advice.

If, however, they have not been courteous then I feel free to be honest - it's funny how rude I can be whilst still managing to be polite!

I usually just say I feel no immediate attraction. I automatically say no thanks to men who can't accommodate but I stopped giving that as a reason because I kept getting asked for car sex or outdoor sex

I usually say it in my response to their introductory like sorry 'you're not my type' or 'you're too far'. If they persist in messaging me, I just ignore them and they soon stop

I point out that it is either distance or schedules that get in the way. Very rarely have I had to turn someone down on any other reason.

As a majority male on this site I find that the respectful thanks but no thanks is a great response, and I will always reply thanking them for taking the time and having the courtesy to respond.. No problem

A no must mean no without any further explanation, requests, begging, pleading etc. I keep it simple and just say Im not pursuing things any further. Its hard enough to keep on top of mail as it is without any hounding and ill feeling being caused. If someone causes distress then it is patently clear they were wrong for you. They should put up and shut up and use their energies more wisely.

Asking a reason to a negative response is not a crime nor a social faux-pas; though some genuinely believe it is. 'No' is the hardest basic response to accept, invariably our minds seek to understand why.

The problem is that 'Why?' is more often a gateway for abuse, rather than a genuine questions designed to understand if the rejection is because of some other factor - such as off-putting photos, poor profile text etc, etc.

Sadly, the minority of people with severe rejection issues and borderline psychopathic rage spoil it for the other minority who want to understand if there is something they can do to improve themselves.

The majority sit in the middle of all this and simply thank you for replying at all!

But one thing to bear in mind, to those who like to reply with sarcastic, berating messages to the 'Why?' question - you're just as bad as those who direct their rejection issues back at you. You're feeding the cycle of rage just as much as the other person.

Or, putting it succinctly - 'If you haven't got anything nice to say, STFU and move on'.

No certainly means No, not that we would ask but to learn the reasons why not can sometimes help the person asking, so therefore quite harmless. However, any abuse afterwards isn't nessesary.
