I know there's always a first and I shouldn't take this personally! But after chatting to a guy for 3 hours he asked me for a face pic. He had sent his photograph right at the start of our conversation and I totally forgot that I never sent one back.
So I sent mine and after having received no reply for a long period (and my message was opened) I wrote back that it's ok if he doesn't like my pics, but can just say it. No hard feelings.
Well, that message was opened too but I got blocked by him after.
I know this is just a general moan and it never happened before to me. But it stings a bit.
I just wish I had sent my pic before so I hadn't wasted 3 hours on him 
Has this happened to you? I always try my best and take my time to thank for for face pics and tell them in the nicest way possible if they're not my cup of tea. |

One can change his/her mind about whether he/she wants to pursuit any further with a potential playmate.
If after I have sent a message, with or without pics attached, and do not receive a reply, I take it that the gent is no longer interested in pursuing any further and leave it at that.
I would not message him and enquire about why he has not responded, as that would make me come across as desperate and needy IMHO.

Aww, I'm sorry to hear that. I am sure it stings but on the other hand, maybe you missed meeting a munter.
It's bad manners, right enough, so if he showed that amount of disrespect for you at this stage, maybe you were lucky?

Aww hugs! I'd be feeling the same. Fair enough we all have different tastes but it's just mean to block you. No harm in saying sorry you're not my type. His loss, plenty of much nicer people out there. Seems there's too many people these days cold as ice with zero tact.

yes of course I wouldnt' be anyone's type.
It's just a general moan about lack of manners that's all.
And I didn't ask him why, I just wrote that it's ok and there are no hard feelings, but it would have been nice if he would have told me so.
Ok, let's just ignore my post... I was just annoyed and a bit confused about the lack of manners.
Thanks |

block him back and move on... plenty more to choose from.
I don't think it is his loss tho, no offence to the OP... it was his choice, not loss.
if a guy posted this, I suspect a slightly different type of response.
good luck with your next meet x |

This happened to us last week. A local couple with no pics wrote to us and asked for clear face pics, which I sent.
Next thing we knew we were blocked.
Now as you can see, we've got face pics on our profile, always have had, but they didn't have any pics at all, and as they made first contact, our contention is that they should show. there's first.
We didn't get the chance to ask for there's, lol.
Mind you, me without my shades is enough to put the shits up most people, lol.

it's really not a nice thing to do... Personally, I stay with my decision to treat everyone with respect. And even if people in here make fun of me now... so be it. I continue having manners and make an effort if others do.
Thanks all for the constructive and even the not so constructive comments. |

Form personal experience women can be really bad on here in taking rejection. You can get some real hate replays and its not called for. Blocking is pretty much to the point and you know your not getting there. If you dont sometimes you get them asking what's wrong with them etc so where do you end it.
A block is a block live with it as its better than getting a reply that upsets you even more.

welcome to my world,
it's not a nice place but i make the most of it.
ask yourself, if they don't even have the common courtesy to say “no thank you” are they the kind of people you actually want to meet ?
silence in some cases can speak a thousand words.
chin up and never forget, you deserve better

Don't take it personally. Some people are curtious and some are downright rude just as they are in the real world.
We try to act in a way we'd like to be seen to be doing, but not everyone is on the same wavelength.
I prefer to just laugh it off and move on.
We were rejected after sending face pics to one couple, and then we happened to meet them face to face at a party. They were very apologetic and said we looked much "nicer" in the flesh, and tried their best to salvage the situation.
I just told them to "do one", they had their chance and missed it. They don't get another one.
Now some might say I acted in a childish way, and you're entitled to your opinion, but I felt bloody great after. |

Also girls men get conditioned by you that its fine and acceptable to delete and block if you are not interested. I've seen it said a hundred times on threads put up by men complaining that they don't get replys and get blocked. So you could say some of you women spoil it for the rest!
Rule of thumb... smile and move on.  |

To the OP...men seem to have the same thing all the time, but sometimes they don't even get to send a pic.
As you say, maybe send a face pic first if you normally swap pics, saves wasting time on mails if you are not suited to someone. |

Welcome to my world too!!!
Can appreciate that not everyone can fancy you but a bit of common decency is all that is required - 'sorry but your not my type', etc
These days when I send a pic I always add the message
You will now either:
A. Block me
B. Say sorry but I'm not your type
C. Like what you see and continue chatting
At least this way I get in there first so it softens the blow!!!
But always keep smiling!!

I think you will find there is a wee word 'maybe' in front of munter. |

I forgot that I didn't send him a pic to be honest... but I agree, I make sure the exchange of pics happens earlier (when I feel happy with it) to avoid wasting each other's time.

No, he asked me for my face pic (He had sent his before) and he blocked me afterwards. anyway, I guess he didn't fancy me which is fine by me.

i don't know about that but at least you had the decency to let me know that i wasn't your type and that i shouldn't let it bother me when i mailed you a couple of months back.
just a few words like those make a huge difference.
i'm a realist and not for one second take anything for granted but replies like yours have been few and far between, so many thanks for showing a level of decency that sooooo many on here seem not to posses |

OP I understand it has hurt you, you will be ok and at least you've learnt a few things from this:
Send your pic at the start of the conversation
If you don't get a reply then forget about it and spend your time messaging any of the gorgeous multitude of guys on this site.
Don't message again asking for a reason, the reason may not be a 'sorry you're not my type', it might be a rude nasty reply because the person is irritated you're asking for a reason. Don't give them the chance to hurt you.
Remember that when the boot is on the other foot and a guy sends you a pic and you're not keen, then treat him the way you want and expect to be treated.
Don't get paranoid about your pic, it matters little what others think of it, as long as you like it.
Keep smiling and confident and enjoy. Too much time has been spent wondering about this guy

You can ask the op yourself lol
and yes, I always made the effort to reply to all emails if they have sent face pics and/or made a good effort in their email. I treat people the way I want to be treated.
But also consider that I didn't send my pic with an unsolicited email. I was chatting to him for 3 hours before that.
Anyway, as previously said. I was angry and confused and shoudl have not posted this. I'm probably a bit too naive for this site sometimes.

Even animals choose attraction and are fussy. If people werent fussy or didnt want mutual attraction we would be dragging anyone of the street for sexual gratification....alas people are fussy

It was a joke, but still I beg to differ.
Just as there are people who need to feel attracted, there are those who don't.... good grief enough profiles state "looks, age, size are not important". |

So what if one has chatted with another person for 3h before deciding to change his/her mind about pursuing further?
I do not believe that is a crime.
There are ways to let someone down gently and kindly.
However, the gentle approach does not always work, especially with those who are needy or have too high a opinion of themselves.
Blocking is a short, sharp and sure way that works, IMHO.

Those people that say looks, age etc etc unimportant are just hunting for anyone that will send them mail. Those that have sent these people mail with no response will know im right. Im not shallow and love chatting but im not going to have meets with people im not physically attracted to. I think aslong as you are truthful in your profile and say clearly what you are wanting then no hard feelings. |

Those people that say looks, age etc etc unimportant are just hunting for anyone that will send them mail. Those that have sent these people mail with no response will know im right."
Hmmm, I wonder how come so many get actual meet verifications.
I don't think anyone who wants to be attracted to a sexual bed buddy is shallow, nor those who want to feel their buddy is attracted to them.... but there's a big difference between stating our own preferences and saying all people need the same. |

I would agree with you totally that not all people are the same. However, thats why we have profiles to state the preferences of what we are in search of. Indeed we do not always state every preference hence some people get in contact and if they dont get a reply take it to heart sometimes. I do understand your point of _iew and we could go on forever on the point. There are flaws on both sides of the scale. |

Well, as I have learnt, here is just the same as any other social group; some people are just scum.
If he doesn't have the social skills to politely let you down etc, then you have dodged a bullet. In al likelihood, if he can't deal with that, there would never have ben anything in it anyway.
The only irksome thing is that there is not a 'rude list' to alert others to people like this. |

I would say 80% of my conversations end at the exchange of pic stage
As a result, I tend to get it outta the way sooner rather than later
I would sooner it be that way
I am rarely offended by a lack of response or a 'no thanks'
What both do is allow me additional time to concentrate on those that ARE interested, rather than wasting time on someone who may not be attracted to me (or me to them for that matter). |

"I know there's always a first and I shouldn't take this personally! But after chatting to a guy for 3 hours he asked me for a face pic. He had sent his photograph right at the start of our conversation and I totally forgot that I never sent one back.
So I sent mine and after having received no reply for a long period (and my message was opened) I wrote back that it's ok if he doesn't like my pics, but can just say it. No hard feelings.
Well, that message was opened too but I got blocked by him after.
I know this is just a general moan and it never happened before to me. But it stings a bit.
I just wish I had sent my pic before so I hadn't wasted 3 hours on him
Has this happened to you? I always try my best and take my time to thank for for face pics and tell them in the nicest way possible if they're not my cup of tea.
welcome to my world,
it's not a nice place but i make the most of it.
ask yourself, if they don't even have the common courtesy to say “no thank you” are they the kind of people you actually want to meet ?
silence in some cases can speak a thousand words.
chin up and never forget, you deserve better
"
Why should people say 'no thank you' when the torrent of abuse you can get back is ridiculous.
The owners of the site have decided it's not rude to block people, THEY installed the block button.
So what if people block others, so what if some don't like the look of some, so what if some don't reply.
Surely it is people's choice when, who and why they use the block button. Sod all to do with manners, rudeness etc..... pure choice!

So.......I'm scum now am I?
Please add me to the 'rude' list. I block when I feel like it...... i'm a bad, bad person..
my rules
my choice
my comfort zone
No one else's business..........
If others don't like it........ THEY need to get over it. |

I wouldnt class it as rude though. You have to distinguish n the first place as to whether the guy was up for a meet or just playing flirt fun to get selfish needs of being wanted by someone when nobody else did at that time. The bubble burst because once seeing a pic that lovely fantasy of chatting nicely and having a nice old flirt suddenly burst because there was no attarction. The debate could go on forever whetehr she was right or he was. I feel whats important is that there are people at the keyboard with lives and feelings and go with that when messaging each other continually. |

This is a good reason to have face pics on profile, that way people can decline without even contacting us......it's less painful.

Let’s be clear about this… people have every right to stop sending messages to someone… without giving any reason why.
May be it was the face pic, may be it wasn’t. May be he was busy doing something else and alarm bells rang when he was being questioned about not replying, may be he knew her…….. we don’t know why. He has no obligation to message her again, no matter how long they have been talking for. For a lot of people not getting a reply is a clear sign to move on…. the OP decided to ignore the hint and pursue the matter further… this resulted in her being blocked. I would have likely done the same as him.

We won't put our face pics on our profile, especially after seeing so many site users get theirs lifted and posted onto another site without permission only a few days ago 
We will continue to send face pics when we feel the time is right .....and 'brush ourselves down and get on with it' if they say "no thanks" or if they decide to delete our message and/or block us.
We will respect their decision and actions at every level. Not one site user 'owes' another anything to another in our eyes x |

I don't see the point of being contacted by peeps I have no intention of knowing.
If that makes me a bad person, then so be it. No skin off my nose.
My life, my choice, la de da! |
