Confused - got blocked after few minutes of meeting arranged
Jump to: Newest in thread
Hi,
I would really appreciate if anyone advice...
I got blocked within minutes of arranging a meet with a woman.
Don’t know why ? After confirming date, time & venue of the meet, I just asked her mobile number so we can communicate easily and reassured it will be confidential. Next thing, I am blocked. I am totally baffled....
Don’t know who did it ( definitely not me). Could it be site admin or the woman herself ?
Why should she block me ? We just agreed to meet ?
Is there anyway I can ask the woman/ admin why ? Could it be a mistake?
HELP....

Thanks ... but profile was year old, had pictures of her ( she also sent some by messages), 3 verifications seemed very genuine....
Did I pressed wrong button by asking phone number ? Is it what ladies normally do ?
Is there anyway my query can be sent to site admin or the woman in question ?

Wouldn't bother mate. Has happened to me too. The lady in question was quite direct and persistent.
Everything set up and I get blocked.
Some people get their kicks out of stuff like that. Chalk it down to experience and move on.
Lots of decent women here. |

Welcome to the joys of fab happens all too often...
Wouldn't beat yourself up over it nor blame yourself for asking her mobile number just one of those things that happens quite often on fab.
You start chatting to someone build a rapport between each other, decide to arrange a meet and poof they block you or the profile disappears |

Try not to worry about it, strange things happen on Fab. If you attempt to make sense of everything you’d go mad!
Don’t let it put you off either, there are some lovely people around, but you have to dig about a bit to find the gems x |

There could have been a lot of reasons for it, including the person you were talking to was not who they were saying they were.
Do NOT set up another profile and message her, that would be very stalker- like. People have the right to change their minds.
Regarding phone number- I almost never give away my phone number, but do use Kik. Just to communicate, not to swap hundreds of pics or videos.
I have to admit, I blocked someone very shortly after arranging a social with them. As we moved on to chatting on Kik, and the communication went weird, in my opinion. So I followed my instinct and cancelled the meet, as well as blocked the person. |

"Set up a second profile... and message her directly "
I wouldn't advise that. Using another profile to get round a block can result in being suspended from the site.
Op, sometimes it spooks a woman if you ask for their number. Its disappointing for you though. |

It happens on here there are some people like that .they spoil it for genuine people that do meet and give site a bad name for new members. People that been on for ages know the score just move on there is a lot of genuine nice people on here too |

" . On my phone I have frequently visited websites and Fabs is one of them it’s quite handy to use the messaging service on Fabs to arrange a meeting and keep in contact if you are running late or can’t make it so I don’t think you need to give out a phone number until after you have first met and a mutual decision is made in exchanging phone numbers.That could be a reason as to why she blocked although just a politely let’s wait until we meet before deciding to exchange phone numbers would be better. |

This happens to us all. Single men get a bad name but realistically everyone is capable of being an inconsiderate arse. Move on; use the time to watch a film or give a mate you haven’t spoken to a call instead. |

We have had guys give us the big I am saying how good they are with women spoke on here for ages about what we could get up to on our first meet. Arrange date and time then they don’t show or even bother to say why they couldn’t. It’s life there are time wasters and always will be |

My money is on it being a bloke or someone playing mind games.
I had very similar when I first came on the site. A "woman" who was very persistent in wanting to meet and then when I agreed to a social I found I was blocked as I travelled to the meet.
Some eejits out there.

People may and do change their minds at any point in the whole process and it's not worth spending any energy thinking about it. There are reasonable justifications and there may be scams etc but they have done you a favour by making it clear that it's not going any further. You can then pursue all the other people that it's wise to be simultaneously communicating with. Never limit yourself to just one contact |

I also don't give out my number, however I have to say if the person you were talking was genuine then they would have said "no I don't give my number out"
Move on, plenty of delicious women on this site |

I never give my number out, certainly not until I've met the person and decided if I want to meet them again. This is my 'private' private life I don't want it including into my other life work or personal.
I wouldn't know if the Woman who blocked you felt the same but it's a possibility. |

You'd have thought so, even if you don't want to give it out it is not an offensive question. But people can be oddly prickly on here. |

Text messaging itself can sometimes be interpreted incorrectly. Where the recipient reads it the wrong way, takes offence and hits the block button. Leaving you no opportunity to explain what you meant. That’s the downside of relying on just the written word. You have to be very careful with what you write and read it back a couple of times before hitting the send button. We’ve all made stupid (innocent) errors and that is sometimes all it takes to put someone off. |

Can be baffling and hurtful on here but the gems make it worthwhile.
It makes no sense and it is cowardly, low behaviour but you just have to forget it.
The worst is when people drive long distances/book hotels.
It would be open to abuse, but there must be some way that these people can be held to account . A review by admin of messages sent and a ban issued to the worst little shits? |

I am sorry this has happened to you. If it is any consolation, women get messed around as well. It's happened to me, you just have to move on and hope that the next one is genuine. |
