"Don't you love it when you send a nice thoughtful message to someone, appear to tick all their boxes, send face photos and all that jazz, which they then read, delete and block you? I love that I do. Love it." I'm glad to know some people do, because that's mainly the way I deal with my inbox. Although blocking might be going a bit too far. You might think you tick all their boxes. You obviously didn't. | |||

"Don't you love it when you send a nice thoughtful message to someone, appear to tick all their boxes, send face photos and all that jazz, which they then read, delete and block you? I love that I do. Love it." 'Appear' being the important word. Your message may be the most wonderful message ever sent, however if someone doesn't fancy you, nothing is going to make them reply, and rather then ping pong messages it's easier to delete , block and move on. | |||

I understand all of this - it's the blocking that I find odd. | |||

They can't have thought you ticked all their boxes Or they didn't like your face pic Or they know you Many reasons for it but don't let it put you off making the effort as it's appreciated by others. Personally even if it was a no I'd reply and say that if someone took the approach you did. | |||

"The blocking prevents further interaction; if you're not what they want, why does it matter?" It doesn't matter - nothing matters - it's just something I wanted to mention. I"m over it.....no really I am......I'M FINE ABOUT IT!  | |||

"Don't you love it when you send a nice thoughtful message to someone, appear to tick all their boxes, send face photos and all that jazz, which they then read, delete and block you? I love that I do. Love it." I do appreciate that its frustrating. We sometimes get right to the point of arranging to meet someone and they just stop replying or even arrange a time and place but they fail to confirm. We accept that its all par for the course, it's a funny old world. | |||

I love that I do. Love it." What's the problem? They've obviously decided you're not for them and doing you a favour really. Ignore/move on. Just because you think you tick all their boxes, doesn't mean you actually do. | |||

I'm not looking for sympathy, and I'm a big boy, I can take it.....it's really more of a point about how unfriendliness on here perpetuates a culture of further unfriendliness, and idiotic emails from men.
It's a vicious circle. I've been doing this about 12 years - I know the drill."It's not unfriendly and it may not be due to prior unfriendliness. Would you rather have messages explaining why they're not interested? What would that achieve? I'm curious what the alternative is from your perspective. | |||

"On the bright side, the block means you won't end up messaging someone who isn't interested in you a second time. So, every cloud has a silver lining..." This...is acceptable | |||

It was about how unfriendly the culture on here is - I know the reasons why. Not every thread is about asking for answers."It's not unfriendly to delete messages. It's not unfriendly to block. And neither of those are peculiar to Fab anyway, as I have been on other sites and used the features to make my experience go more smoothly. You sound like you've been here for a while and are aware of the various features and the way they are used, so unless you were after some sympathy I really don't know why you are so surprised. By the way, you are allowed to ask for sympathy, and you have received some so result, I guess. Don't let an internet site make you bitter. | |||

"Problem is, if a single lady replies with a 'no thanks' and then get's a vicious foul mouthed answer back a few times, then in future, they will tend to delete and block people who don't appeal. Block sounds harsh as it can be the place for nasty people to go. It can also just be a simple admin tool. Don't read too much into it. Also remember the site is swelling in size, including less articulate people than you. Sad, but the way of the world sometimes. Have fun. MrB " I'm going to block you all - especially this couple

"Don't you love it when you send a nice thoughtful message to someone, appear to tick all their boxes, send face photos and all that jazz, which they then read, delete and block you? I love that I do. Love it." Many women use the 'I get so many messages, I can't possibly reply to them all' excuse. All they need to do is use the filters but I guess most of them like being so 'popular' I've blocked everyone and do my own searches
Delete yr sent items, if you get a response great, if not,their loss xx | |||
