Think it would be good to have a "reason for blocking" when you block someone/or get blocked,I have been blocked,and have no idea why,after exchanging some great messages,even pics,and then all of a sudden "whallop" seems I'm blocked by user,strange..

Would rather know why,no matter how harsh,just so I don't make the same mistake again,even if I didn't in my eyes...

Perhaps once they saw you, they realised that you weren't for them, no mutual attraction, as simple as that

Maybe they get bored of the conversation and aren't brave enough to say so they block instead.

I block people for loads of reasons - they're in my local updates & I'd rather avoid them, they can't read my profile, they can't take a no for an answer, I don't like their attitude on the forums. Don't question it, it's just Fab.

Maybe,but I've had people say "your not my type" etc and that's cool...why block? Just seems clinical lol

The messages were fine,good banter etc,I'm no Brad Pitt but certainly wouldn't say I'm Arm Pitt

Just be good to have a reason for block I think,I've blocked people too,so it works both ways..

Blocking stops you from messaging again when they're not interested.

Some men - not all - will just push if you don't nip it in the bud.

If you use 'reply + quote' we know who you are replying to.

Just see block as meaning they don't want to talk to you anymore.

This is why I block my no thanks guys. They mostly come back if you don't.

OP don't worry about and it's probably not personal

There is always a reason for blocking.

If youve been blocked, even after chatting and good banter, then it means they don't want any further contact. They obviously viewed the exchanges differently than you did.

Don't be offended by it, it's simply a tool of the site.

I'm seeing it that way now,it's just an ignorant way of no thanks I guess...

Just thought I'd see if it was an occurrence others found annoying...

Thank you though

I think you'd need to experience some of the reactions women get to a simple "no thanks" before you assume it's ignorance.

Well yes,I can only imagine,but then that's just pure obnoxious behaviour on the respondents behalf,but yes,I can imagine it's just not worth the hassle with some,so an instant block is quicker and cleaner..

This,I can safely say,was not the case from me,but thank you

It wouldn't make you feel better and a lot of the time it would frustrate you even more, because you'd disagree but not be able to say so.

Let it go. They changed their mind for some reason or they weren't who they claimed from the start. You didn't necessarily do anything wrong.

They're saying no thanks to chatting further. There's no need for you to have asked anything before someone can decline to chat further.

I tend to block smokers who message me because I don't want to meet smokers and further messages from them would waste my time and theirs. If they can't read my profile and deduce from it that I'm not interested in chatting with smokers, tough.

Very true,if you've stated a dislike it's crazy they even message you with that as part of their character...seems pointless...

Thank you though for your view on subject

But we block for various reason some would make no sense and seem unfair to the person blocked.

"But we block for various reason some would make no sense and seem unfair to the person blocked."

I suspect the vast majority would seem unfair to the person blocked. There will never be an explanation that makes people bothered about being blocked feel any better.

The only acceptable answer on here is yes, let's meet and fuck.

If you ignore, you're rude, ignorant and arrogant and they want to know what's wrong with them.

If you say no thanks, they want to know why.

If you actually give a reason they argue, bargain or become abusive.

If you block, they want to know why and what's wrong with them...

Basically, no in any form is simply not a satisfactory answer to some people.
