I was blocked the other night after being asked for a pic. I wonder do people think when they do it how it might effect the other person's self esteem.i really do believe people should instead of blocking someone just say that sorry you are not my type. Now I'm OK if the person gets abusive by all means block them then.I'm sure this has happened to both men and women here and it's not a nice feeling when it happens. |

My opinion, its a random stranger online, I wouldn't let it get to you, don't take it to heart just move on from it, I don't think the person who blocked you will give you a second taught sorry  |

Now I know it's easier for couples, but if we're asked for a pic, we always then ask for theirs first, because they asked first. I think its quite rude to ask for a pic if you're not prepared to send yours first. So I'm not surprised that they didn't have the decency to message to say that they weren't interested.
You can tell a lot from people by simply not being so willing to accommodate requests. That's my opinion anyway - Mrs  |

The way I look at it, with "online dating" as Fab technically is, it's a lot easier to approach someone, make the first move and break the ice. Say hello and try make conversation with a perfect stranger. However by the same rules, it's a lot easier to just break things off and just cut contact I'd you arwnt feeling it. It's just the nature of the game and you gotta take the good with the bad. It sucks, but in real life, if you seen the same person standing at a bus stop, you probably never would have approached them to ask them out at all. |

ya I know but also I basically wouldn't call them ugly to their face either and by blocking someone after seeing their pics is exactly that

Welcome to the Jungle my friend , youre not the first and certainly wont be the last ..please do NOT let it affect your mojo or self esteem ..absolutely not worth that ..that some faceless person from God knows where ,who for all you know, could have a face like a bull dog chewing a wasp ,could affect your self esteem or well being..think of it that twas you that had the lucky escape.. |

Its exactly because they dont have the balls to say it to your face that you got blocked. It's hard to say that to someone. It's easier to block. It sucks..but try and see that these people were never going to have sex with you anyway, so you didnt lose anything really. |

I agree. its very hard, its probably happened us all. i understand its online and ya need a hard neck on here, and just move on and all that people say, but its missing the point. as someone above said, if they took the time to ask for the pic, a simple your not my type woulnt kill them, rather than just block. just because some people get loads of messages should not give them the right to be rude to people that dont. |

I don't think it's someone calling you ugly. It's someone who, for whatever reason, wouldn't tell you that you're not their cup of tea.
I used to let it get to me too OP however, as someone else pointed out, it's a random Internet stranger.
Try not to let em take up space in your head. It's not worth the hassle it causes |

It does happen to everyone and it will happen again. Don't let it get you down at the end of the day they are random strangers on the Internet. She may not have been what you were looking for either.

Happened me on an old profile a few times. The feeling is worse when you overthink it since they never send you one back. I'll never send one again unless I'm sent one first. |

It happens a lot here.. Chat away for ages they ask for pic I oblige and soon after blocked... And for the record I'm not an orger because I used to do well when the world was open and we could go out lol But it still stings when it happens.. |

I never ask for face pics because most conversations dont seem to go on long enough to where I feel like theres going to be a meeting. A few times I sent pics I was asked 2 or 3 texts in and at the time I said fair enough they want to know what I look like. Some would keep texting for ages after you send one then suddenly stop but you never really know who you're talking to. I'm from limerick and see loads of great local profiles but prefer to meet with outsiders because of the not knowing who you're talking to and sending pics to. |

Relax there’s probably a sensible reason for it, she’s probably your mother/daughter/neighbour/boss (delete as appropriate)

Women are like bouncers they decide who gets to come in and who doesn't and sex is no different.. Granted many women here have very high expectations like wanting 10 inch dick and wanting someone from a modelling calender.. But thats the reason why they join sites like this to meet men I've just described.. They can get the average Joe in real life anytime  |

"There is nothing wrong with asking someone to send a pic first if they are requesting yours. "
This was my point earlier. We would never ask for a face pic without sending our own first. If someone asks us for a face pic, we respond that it's no problem but that they should send theirs first.
If you want to avoid this happening again, this should be your policy. Single guys should never skip to the tune of ladies or couples. |

I am not responsible for other peoples self esteem although it would have been polite for a person to say no thanks if they had asked for a pic |
