Ever thought it could be someone who recognised you and didn't want you knowing they are on the site as well?

I wouldn't say it gets my goat but I do wonder sometimes why when I click on a profile and find they've blocked me.

I never dwell on it. The reasons for blocking are numerous and I'm adult enough to accept it and move on, after all I wouldn't want to meet someone I'm not compatible with. I do usually block from my end too, just to make sure they can't keep unblocking to perve.

No. Rejection is a part of life, why use valuable brain energy to someone who has forgotten about you?

Always a pure bliss of getting blocked.

There and to the left a bit

Doesn't bother me in the slightest when a random stranger does it OP as others have said there can be any number of reasons someone may have blocked me and not always because of something I've said or done.

The only time it would bother me would be if someone I had been chatting to for some time, and built a semblance of a relationship with, did it without apparent reason and even then it would be frustration at not knowing why more than annoyance.

Completely agree. It would take me by surprise if it was out of the blue after talking and building a friendship. But, on here, blocked from a stranger? No, We all shouldn’t worry about that.

Likewise, this annoys me as they are too cowardly to wait for a response to their nasty message! If you don’t like someone or their pictures just ignore them, there is no need to be nasty to others.

See this is something that can go either way and it's a shame for single guys. We've had way too many messages to respond to especially in the first week or so. There could be some diamonds in the rough that we've missed and if they only sent one message our paths might never cross.

However, on the other hand there's guys that spam you continually and don't take the hint so we've ended up blocking them.

The only time it annoys me is when we've been getting along for a bit, exchanging a few messages, then I send a face pic.

Immediate block. Not even a sorry, you're not my type....just hit the old block button because you are that ugly.

That doesn't do a lot for anyone's self-confidence!!

Agree, in that situation, it would be nice to get a 'not for us' message before the block

That's why you should swap face pics right at the beginning of the conversation.

I asume anyone who doesn’t quote or reply to my posts in threads have blocked me. It’s quicker than me having to check everyone’s profiles individualy.

It's bothered me twice.

First was a guy messaged me in response to a post I made in the forum, he'd 100% took it the wrong way and was extremely abusive and threatening but he blocked me so I never got the chance to explain

The other was a couple I had sent a message to, emailed me back saying hi and then blocked me immediately

When I was in a couple profile we used to block people we would never meet with. Also people who live close by.

Sometimes when I go into a profile for the first time and I’m blocked I do wonder what I’ve done, but no point dwelling on it...there’s loads more that do want to meet

I know it shouldn't but on the odd occasion it does. When I came on line this morning I had a message from a guy I had never spoken to before who had messaged in the early hours when I wasn't on to be rather aggressive and abusive regarding a status on my profile. Obviously I wanted to know what his problem was....but yea, you guessed it...blocked. Now I can't say on finding that out I wasn't slightly miffed...i wanted, no, NEEDED my 2 pence worth. lol

I automatically ignore messages from a dick pic profile, however good the message!

But I did get upset by a nasty message last night from someone in Belfast I've never spoken to who had blocked me before I read it, made do with reporting to Admin

Some people will block everyone who they've come across that they don't want to meet. People you've blocked don't show on your searches.
