If someone sends you a face pic and the attraction isn’t there how do you end it?
Stop replying
Say sorry you’re not for me
Keep it going for a while in pretence then let it Peter out
In for a penny in for a pound? |

I always say there’s no attraction for me and wish them happy fabbing.
That is if we have conversed. If there’s no attraction then it’s as simple as that ![](/icons/thumb_up.png) |

I dont mind what form the rejection takes. I get that I may be an acquired taste, and I’m not so egotistical to think that everyone’s gonna fancy a piece of this prime Stoke beefcake.
I’ll always let anyone down with sensitivity and thoughts for the feelings of the person on the receiving end. |

I hate when people send me face pictures and then want an immediate response on if I want to fuck them.
Aesthetics aren't particularly important to me. No-one has a face so stunning I'd overlook the rest of them. |

Good point but there’s bound to be a level that’s a hard no right? |

Possibly? I can appreciate when someone is conventionally attractive, and I can recognise when someone has features that most would find unappealing. But how attracted I actually am to someone is generally far more dependant on how they excite me in all ways, not just the visual. |

""Not for me thanks"
And if they're cute, but it's still a no
"Cute! But not for me thanks"
Wait why would they be cute but still no?"
Because I can appreciate someone being nice looking, but not quite to my taste |

I just don't talk to people here like its a dating site, in honesty.
So if I see a face after a bit of chat, I just assume they're flexing about having eyes or something.
Which is pretty weird and therefore probably my type of friend.

Definitely agree that it’s not all about the visual |

"Find it very awkward tbh! X

Me three. I just hate the thought of making someone feel bad about themselves or knocking their confidence. I hate it "
But you said to me you'd seen potatoes that looked better ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

My go to is ‘Thanks for the photo. You have nice x; however, I’m looking for someone a bit different than you. All the best. ‘
When I’ve said you’re not my type, in the past, the never ending messages of how they could be if I gave them a go did my head in. |

Last time this happened I said sorry you’re not for me, wishing you well.
Two days of pleading, begging, bribing, negging followed. Eventually I blocked ![](/icons/s/rolleyes.gif) |

Yes you raise a good point because a lot of men can’t actually accept and handle rejection |

Men often take bad pictures so if the conversation is going well I'll usually keep going with it. If after a social the attraction isn't there then i just tell them the chemistry wasnt there. They usually felt the same so it works out well. |

That’s not what you said. You said I had a face only a mother could love. Then I told you she abandoned me to the wolves and you never messaged me again ![](/icons/s/neutral.gif) |

100%! And even someone u think is attractive can be quite the opposite when u meet IRL. Sooo many factors! |

I just "I'm sorry but there's no attraction for me. Best of luck" or something like that. If it's the first messages I just say not what I'm looking for, so they don't assume it's their looks.
I've said no thanks to some decent looking chaps this week. They just didn't float my boat. And I won't float plenty of boats. It's life. |

Is there a nearby office supplies store that sells paper bags at a reasonable price?
Hopefully you’ve got sharpies for the faces

We range from saying sorry you aren’t for us to just ignoring our message box and hope they never message again
Most of the time we are honest as there’s no point keeping the chat going with no interest.

I like a face pic early on and will say ' you dont fit what I'm looking for'. Most of the time they dont know if I meant I was not attracted to them. It could mean anything I've seen on their profile doesn't fit. Or their first message. |
