I reply politely to everyone but it generally gets me nowhere. I can see why people do just Ignore and block because its a waste of time repeatedly telling someone you're not interested. |

I used to reply to everyone but then you get the replies saying 'fat bitch' or 'ugly bitch' (generally have bitch in there) and the guys who say 'why not' or 'I'll change your mind' or 'you won't regret me'. And then the ones who say ok no probs but yet continue to harass you thinking you'll change your mind. So I no longer reply. I delete the message and of the keep messaging I'll block them  |

I'm just glad im the one in Ten who wishes them the best makes a note on their profile and leaves them alone when i have been turned down.
I dont get the whole being abusive to someone if you get turned down. Too much anger and hate in the world, and its nice to be nice to people.
And i have met people who have turned me down in the past and it all changed when they met me in person so i'm never going to be nasty to anyone.

If someone takes the time to answer you, and say they aren't interested, I, personally appreciate their honesty. Why people have to persist with stupid "why" questions then, is beyond me.
Is it any wonder it can be difficult here for genuine single guys. |

I've been getting that a bit lately. The male half of the couple messaging late at night looking to 'chat'.
I tell them no thanks and I get the repeated 'but I just want... '
I tell them, again, no thanks I'm not interested and get the shite off them then...
'I'll change your mind'
'if you meet me I'll make it worth your while'
'no need to be such a bitch..' (because I won't indulge their wank material while their wife is asleep beside them, and my man is asleep beside me)' etc etc.
Which just goes to prove I was right in the first place.
Block and delete. It's the only way.

I'd rather be told - blocking them is a bit harsh if all they have done is sent a polite opening message. If they've written something offensive or persist with another follow-up then get blocking! |

Apart from 1 liners & rude/dirty messages, I try to reply to all. Majority I will turn down but I will try to tell them why I'm not interested in even chatting, whether it's cause there's nothing on their profile that interests me or I know we won't click.
Majority will be fine & I won't block them as I appreciate their message & sure an ole perv at my pics won't harm me but I will attach a note to their profile so if they message me again il block. The few who get nasty I bloke straight away. |

Why do I have to reply just because they took it upon themselves to send a message? The risk you take by mailing someone is it not getting answered. They know this. |

"Is it better to tell someone you're not interested, or just block them?  "
I don't see reason to block just a polite sorry not interested should do the trick |

It should do the trick. Unfortunately, it doesn't always do the trick. |

Seems a very reasonable approach which more could take .... Acknowledging the fact that you ladies get 100 s of messages  |

"Surely it's much more fun to tell them you want to fuck their brains out, absolutely devour the lad off them and drink every last drop of their man juice..... then block them!  "
You're evil  |

You don't have to reply - a delete says the same thing. My point was that going straight to blocking someone seems a bit much. The in-between of replying with a no-thanks or just deleting seems more appropriate. |

I do delete. Then they mail again and again until I have to block them. That's my point. I would never block someone for messaging one time unless it was a disgusting mail. But some people use it as a filter to stop people that have mailed and they aren't interested in from mailing again. That's their choice. |

If we had been chatting then yes, of course a polite "we're not going there" would be in order but an unsolicited straight out "wanna fuck" could quite easily be answered with a block. |

Thanks for all the advice, and humour!
I did try the 'I'm too old and too tall for you." But just got the 'I don't mind... i like taller ladies.'
So that hint was lost.
If I share the whole sad saga, I'll almost certainly get a ban for 'washing my dirty laundry in public' or whatever, so I'll just decide whose advice to follow, and we'll see what the outcome is... |

"It depends, if they fail to read your profile and send a generic mail then I think it's ok to block."
Funny you should say that... his first mail to us was so 'generic' that I actually asked if he bulk-mailed that to everyone on fab! |

I wouldn't block because someone is interested, only if they are rude...
Although I find it rude not to reply, and rather than endless messaging that is wasting their time and mine, I put on filters so I really only get mail from fabbers I have winked or started chat with, cos they caught my eye or find them entertaining on the forum....
So I only have a few profiles blocked  |

I agree with you, this would be the best reply in my opinion |

If someone has no interest in me I generally asked them to block me that way I won't make a mistake in a few weeks time by trying to contact them again when I've forgotten they already said no |

Same here... if I send a message and there is no reply then they aren't interested, handier to just block them as it saves having to remember profiles.
Same with messages read, not deleted... block after 1 week. |
