Sometimes when out of no where you get blocked it feels incredibly childish

Blocking is sometimes easier than explaining why you aren’t interested.
Some don’t take being told that well. |

They blocked you for reasons you don't know. It may appear childish and petulant to you, but to them, their reasons felt appropriate. |

This.
It's not always personal. It often happens with zero contact between you.
It's just a permanent filter to cut down on profiles someone will never be interested in showing up repeatedly when searching and browsing for potential company.
I often wonder why people get upset when they find themselves blocked by complete strangers on the Internet? |

People have their own unique objectives for being here. If someone doesn't fit their ability to achieve their objectives, it can be sensible to block them. It saves unnecessary, avoidable time wasting. Most people are not mutually compatible with most other people. People need to get used to being blocked |
Reply privately (thread closed by moderator) | |
It's more of an oh I can't be arsed to waste any more energy on you.
Although, I don't block without replying usually, so it's rare I'll just read a message then block.
They'd had to have been a complete dick for me to instantly block.
I don't think that's childish. |

We block for a few reasons
1. Unsolicited friend request as first contact
2. Repeated emails when we’ve said we’re not interested
3. People we’d not be interested in such as bi guys, married guys.

massive blocker and for many many reasons and it makes my fab experience way way better and easier ... and because of word of mouth from swinging friends the block button has gotten rid of nearly all timewasters ... its semple press it and move on no drama no hassles just press ...
if those being block feel better thinking im stamping my feet and being a drama queen then carry on lol if that makes you feel better but for me and many others block is the best tool on fab and can save so much drama / letdowns ... pre blocking really works well too |

The block button also helps filter those that have stated that they aren't interested in me or if I'm not intending in them, no foot stamping involved. |
Reply privately (thread closed by moderator) | |
There is always a reason for a block, even if you don't think so.
I block for all sorts of reasons, I don't like their profile or status updates ie if they're ranty or name others.
If I realise I'm not compatible with someone after chatting, I block. This could be due to something they've said, or they become pushy & put me off.
Also if I've seen someone be pretty unsavoury more than once in the forums.
It's a very useful tool and makes fab a better experience in my opinion, it doesn't half wind some up though.

I would think profiles will block for all kinds of reasons. No matter what you think or the actual reason for the blocking. The bottom line is, they, for whatever reason, are not interested in you. End of story. As a man, take the rejection like a man and move on. |

The levels of irony here.
Bitching about being blocked on a platform, in such a way that people you may want to interact with block you, not only reducing your ability to interact with people, but causing you to bitch about said people blocking you.

A few weeks ago whilst at a club, a woman started talking to me and we got along, didn't do anything other than chat. As we were leaving, and because I had my phone in my hand, she asked me to send her a friend request on fab. We searched her name on fab and couldn't find her. She went on her phone and checked why I couldn't find her. It turns out I was in her block list without me ever having interaction with her in the passed at all. No winks, no messages, never seen each other in person....nada
I think some women just love to build their block list up as it may make them feel more validated and/wanted

To the OP, the site gives us the tools to use. We all get to choose who we speak to. If it bothers you then you might not be able to enjoy the site as it probably won't be the first time.

As I said I wouldn't know as I've never looked at your profile. Makes no difference to me if you have or haven't |

I find that I can get repetitive messages from the same person. But not that they are interested in me specifically, more that they’ve looked who is around and are messaging so many profiles that they don’t realise they’ve messaged me multiple times over the course of days or weeks with generic openers.
If I politely say I’m not interested, it has opened me up to abusive messages in the past. So it is simply easier to press block on those individuals. |

Do you know I've never been blocked by the OP/person I'm commenting to/about, always someone who gets offended on their behalf. It always makes me |

Not necessarily offended on anyone's behalf.
Sometimes it's just apparent that that's someone you'll never want a private interaction with and the button is right there |

I really don't understand why people get hung up on a block. It's a tool of the site and people block for all weird and wonderful reasons I.know I do |

"While I absolutely agree the block button can erase some of the idiots that frequent this app
Sometimes when out of no where you get blocked it feels incredibly childish
Like an act of petulance
You can almost see the blocker stamping their feet and wailing "
This post and your silly little jabs at people show you don't really get the idea of consent. You came and cried to everyone because people exercised their desire to not want to converse with you.
Some of us like to wave our freak flag high but you should put down that giant red flag and have a think.

As we have in excess of 20,000 in our block list, it's no wonder my legs are worn down to stumps and I have lost my voice |

The only time being blocked bothered me was when they blocked immediately after seeing the face photo they requested. I either thought I must look like the back end of a bus or they knew me ha
