FabSwingers.com forum: Recognised

By (user no longer on site) OP
over a year ago

Got a message today from someone I've never met asking if I'd been in a certain supermarket at a certain time.

It's probably very silly and naive but I never expected to be recognised in real life, as I didn't think anyone would remember me. It's freaked me out slightly but I'm not sure why as I'm not that bothered who knows I'm on here, with the exception of my kids teachers or other parents possibly.

How have you lot felt about being recognised? Are you bothered or couldn't you give two hoots?

Well at least they were discreet enough to message you here rather than accosting you in the supermarket

Iv decided to become more private as I had a message last week from someone i know from years ago. He messaged not knowing it was me (hopefully) I didn't like that all.

Iv also decided not to meet guys too close to home.

Had people on here say they recognised me from pof in the past, but none from a supermarket etc.

That's totally out of order and must have been a bit freaky - rather like being stalked, I should imagine... I hope you weren't too upset by it.

I'd have been tempted to have said that they were mistaken and, even if they were correct, it was none of their business - then report abuse (because it seems appropriate) and block.

As for being identified myself, I'd rather not be, simply because my life is mine and others have no right to hold me up to public scrutiny for nothing more than their own satisfaction.

Plus if you include your location and recognisable pictures, what do you expect? It's not stalking at all. And it shouldn't be upsetting.

Yeah, I just keep my face off here as much as possible. I've had guys I've actually met of POF come on here and message me without realising it's me - that's a scream!! Someone said something about 'feeling frisky' on a day I had the same status up on here as facebook, so I watch that now too!

If i've spoken to the person before or they have pics and aren't anonymous then it doesn't bother me if someone's recognised me and i'll reply to say if it was me or not.

If they're just a blank profile then it bothers me as well. I don't feel stalked coz people use their eyes when they're out doing their own thing, it's just a bit creepy that idk who it was. I refuse to answer them.

It wouldn't be the end of the world for us for people we know to find out, some of our 'vanilla' friends know, others don't. We're not going to shout it out as the friends who don't know and family don't need to know and it could cause discomfort.

If someone on here recognised us then, ermm, they're on here too..

We have recognised people on here that we've not met through here, other sites, etc. and we've just ignored it and kept quiet. If we happened to be in a situation that it was obvious then we would judge based on body language, eye contact, etc. whether to say hi or not.

Worked in a place with 300 people, One person was looking through the profiles one day and he saw yours truly, He then told someone who then emailed the link to nearly every one in the work place, It spread like hell fire around the office, I knew nothing about it until someone ask me about it, I had to deny it was me and then got the profile removed.

Plus if you include your location and recognisable pictures, what do you expect? It's not stalking at all. And it shouldn't be upsetting. "

My point is so what if you recognise someone, why the need to "anonymously" contact them to let them know time and location? I'd see it as stalking like behaviour.

Though that might be a confirmation to them that they are correct.

A guy messaged us saying he knew where I worked. He was right but I didn't recognise him, and I denied all knowledge.

He was speaking to C through his fake couple profile, when I informed C he stopped replying. After the guy had no response to a couple of messages he posted our username and work address in the status update.

That was the point I blocked and reported, though it was up for half an hour

Beg your pardon, your quite right - I misapprehended the gist of what happened. I got the idea someone had just PMed out of the blue and put the OP on the spot.

I call this place 'like Facebook but for dirty people' to the people I know, so it's the awkward thing when you think about it, like with one of your Facebook friends, you may talk on Facebook etc but when you see them in public you rarely acknowledge them!! Well maybe that's me but if someone came up to me that reconigsed me I wouldn't mind one bit!!

Having said that I did get a message from a guy I saw a few times telling me if I ever saw him in the street to not even say hello, he likes to keep this side of his life private, which is fine but I know it wasn't true!! Lol x

Op here. This is exactly what happened, although I'm not offended by it at all. If anything he's given me a wake-up call so I'm actual quite grateful to him. At least he didn't accost me in the street and holler my username!

"Got a message today from someone I've never met asking if I'd been in a certain supermarket at a certain time.

How have you lot felt about being recognised? Are you bothered or couldn't you give two hoots?"

I love to recognise someone like you in my local supermarket

I would be really unhappy if someone I knew recognized me or Marc. This is a part of our lives that we keep separate from work and family.

Having said that, because we are from the US, the chances of running into people we know are greatly diminished, so it isn't too much of a concern.

We had something like this many years ago the days of contact Magazines got photos sent we sent ours This couple lived in the same area went to meet them in a pub no show or the did not look like there photos.

When you think about it easily done use someone else photos it was the days of the Polaroid camera.

We had swapped phone numbers so us girls could have a chat every thing seemed ok but they never turned up.

We started getting calls saying were we had been what i had on was frightening at first but it just died away in time they must have got fed up

This happens to me fairly often - usually if I go shopping to meadowhall. It doesn't bother me though. I'd hide my face pics if it did. Tbh everyone in my life knows I run an online sex mag so don't think anyone would be that shocked!
