"Sometimes it's a "nice" excuse, or a sign of low confidence. It's difficult to know why unless you ask them directly (but a no is a no and some won't like that). Just see it as a compliment either way." I hope for their sakes it’s not down to confidence. I actually hate taking selfies, so my pics aren’t amazing, so if it is a confidence thing, they must feel pretty low | |||

"I get asked to send a face pic which I don't mind but then the message thread gets deleted and never hear from them again. Makes me think I'm ugly tbh " I feel you on that. Its quite difficult to actually past to the messages stage since my plainspoken profile its the main filter. However, after face pic is sent, thread goes silenced... and most of times I get no responses at all or sometimes I get a polite one implying a “sorry not my type”. I guess The reason for this is that I don’t look my age, I look a lot younger. So yeah that sucks haha | |||

The worst is receiving a very enthusiastic message to then reply with face pics only to get blocked with no reply. Happens loads! | |||

"I had zero confidence when I joined fab, years of rejection makes you believe you must be repulsive to all women. The ladies I've met through fab and one in particular have helped me to love myself again (some may say too much ) If someone told me I was too good looking when I first joined here I would never have believed it and told myself they were taking the piss because I was unattractive. Now I might believe it. It still may not be true but it's a lot better for my confidence to just accept it and move on. " That was beautiful | |||

Happens evenly between girls and lads. However, I’m afraid girls tend to be more affected by it. | |||
