Exchanging face pics.

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

I don't have many pet hates but one of them really bugs me on fab.

When a woman asks to exchange face pics then doesn't keep her side of the bargain. It hasn't happened that many times but when it does it really gets my blood boiling.

Why do people do this?

Usually a ' no reply' means they are not interested. All woman on here arm bombarded with mail, some of my meets get up to 400 messages a day, so responding to everyone isn't going to happen. They should reply but it says a lot about a person of they can't be arsed to send a pic

If I make a promise to exchange a face pic I will even if I don't find them attractive because I don't go back on my word.

Yes I understand all that and it could be due to the amount of messages etc. I'm talking about the minority who lie there ass off just to get a peak at a face pic. Gladly it doesn't happen often but enough to make me very wary of people.

You have to accept because there are many more men on here than women that they have to power to ask for a face pic and not send one in return. It just means they are not interested so move on. It's never really bothered me, but then it doesn't happen very often as I like to build up a rapport first as if they are only after looks then they probably aren't the right person for me to swing with.

We often send face pictures first. We would find it strange if someone did not fancy us but nevertheless chose to send us a face picture back.

I tend to find that most male face pics are disguised with hats, and sunglasses, or a far away pic by some landmark, where as mine are clear and close up, so it's not really shopping like for like. So if no clear photo then no I sometimes don't send

I don't really need to send them, as have face pics on my public profile. But to be honest, men have done the same too. When mine were hidden. I'd send a face pic, and not get one back, or a reply now and again... I just took it as not being their type. Some are rude on here. Men and women. I just take a deep breath, block and move on lol... No point in getting pissed about it. It's just the nature of the site, unfortunately x

ladies can ask for this or that , it doesn't mean you have to follow the request. I know my own worth .I've always thought if I send the first message I'll send the first picture, likewise if the lady has contacted me I hope they'll do the same, if they don't, I'm ok with them moving on to someone else

I ask for a face pic straight off cos I don't see the point of chatting to someone in not intrested in. Likewise if they send me a face pic n I'm not intrested I just don't reply. Harsh maybe.

I don't know where this myth comes from that some women 'get up to 400 messages a day'!! I can honestly say that the only time I ever received upwards of that amount of mail was when I was completely new to the site, didn't know how to set my filters or age limits etc but I soon learned!! If a woman tells you that it's her way of saying you are way down on her list of priorities and don't be expecting a reply any time soon....

You Dont Need to Know, right now

Attraction is frequently not mutual. Unless you agree that face pics will be exchanged at EXACTLY such-and-such a time, someone receives a face pic before they send their own. And if the first-to-receive isn't attracted to the first-to-send, then why WOULD they send their own face pic? "Sorry, you're not my type, but look what you could have won?" It would be just silly.

It's not about mutual attraction and it's not about sending unsolicited face pics and expecting one in return. This about common courtesy and honesty, two personal traits I'd hope most decent people have.

This is about two people agreeing to exchange face pics then one bottling out for whatever reason. It's not right no matter what your excuses.

If someone asks for face pictures and doesn't include theirs they don't get one from us, if we ask for face pictures we include ours with the message, it seems rude that someone would say do you want to swap face pictures and then not include theirs, even ruder to ask for face pics and not include yours and then not respond with yours when you get a reply because you don't like them

One side is likely to swap first and the interest and message exchange stops as soon as one or all parties realise that it's not going to be going anywhere.

He who dares wins. If you're not willing to put yourself out there, risk being rejected, not getting the meets that you think you should etc, then Fab won't really prove to meet your expectations.

Unless there's a service where an external body accepts and releases all parties' photos as soon as they have received them (unlikely to happen), then it's likely to fall to the single guy to have to invest first. Single men will face more rejections, if they're using numbers in their favour, by messaging lots of appropriately matched prospects.

For the people who won't take the risks, there will be others who do - and they'll likely come out on top. Otherwise, there are always clubs, where your face can be seen in person and people can determine if they like you there.

Fab - no reply = no further interest at the moment.

To be honest OP this happens quite a lot and on a previous profile it truly did piss me off; if you agree to exchange face pics and one side doesn't like what the get so refuse; it is rude regardless whether they want to meet or not.

I now just put my face pic in public and don't worry about it. Everyone else has a choice as a single guy you will have to accept that you are always going to be on the back foot and develop mechanisms to just accept what 8s deemed acceptable behaviour. Good luck.

I can see how that goes. You send a face pic, you're not there type. They send you a message saying they're not interested 'but here's my face pic regardless'. You can then reply 'you're ugly anyway'.

I can see no other reason you'd want pics of someone who doesn't fancy you and never wants to meet.

I often get a request from a couple or lady asking for face pictures, but on my profile it says to send one if they're requesting one so it's always a good way to see if they read even the most limited profile.

I'm verified and not bad looking, but with no public pics and verifications that aren't shown, so I'm sure you can just ask them to send you one too, rather than send yours if you're not comfortable. Or just get to socials and parties

I think that respect should always be shown to everyone: it's something that's diminishing a bit around the globe today. But the context here is that Fab is quite a bit different to many sites - it has the rule that no reply means not interested.

It's generally right to follow through with what you've agreed: I'd be very annoyed out there if friends didn't.

But I think the bigger picture here is that single men, from all I've seen of you in the years I've been here, have things a little against them, by volume of them vs the rest of us. It means that guys must have a thick skin, in order to weather what will probably be a tough ride. You will send more 1st messages to others, compared to us: I'm assuming. You will get more rejections and seemingly the raw deal sometimes. Probably requests will come in that are somewhat unbalanced - some will be unreasonable. It's important for you to only do what you think is right for you. If someone's too pushy or very unreasonable, then I'd probably not continue dialogue. Find your own level.

But if continued experiences like this will leave you drained and unhappy, then balance pursuits here with other avenues, such as clubs and socials. People are different face to face of course.

You Dont Need to Know, right now

OP, in your first post, you asked why people do this... and several of us have told you that we wouldn't send a face-pic with a 'thanks for your face pic but you're not my type' message.

And yet you're still insisting that this is rude. So can YOU explain why you want a face pic from someone who isn't interested in you? Do you just like to torture yourself with pictures of people you can't meet? Or does it make you feel better to be able to say "I don't fancy you either".

Either way, you're evidently not going to change your mind (despite asking why people do this), and other people aren't going to change their behaviour just to suit you. So I would suggest that you bring yourself less angst by NOT agreeing to exchange face-pics. Good luck with all your blind meets, in future.

But surely it would be polite to do so?

I did - and responded to some. You are taking politeness to an extreme. If you send a face picture to someone that you do not know properly, to expect one returned is silly, if not rude in itself."

You're either lookin for an argument or just not reading posts fully before replying. Some great replies in this thread. ..have a read.

This is about two people agreeing to exchange face pics then one bottling out for whatever reason. It's not right no matter what your excuses.

But what's the point in sending them a face pic if you didn't like what they sent you and have no interest in meeting ?

It's common courtesy and honesty. Nothing to do with mutual attraction. It's all in the thread but you're forgiven as it's getting quite long.

I've read the whole thread !!!

If someone sends me their face pic and i have no interest in meeting them once i have seen it then there is no way i would send ours. Its pointless !

That's me me being honest and showing common courtesy rather than just ignoring them and blocking them lol

What do you do with photos of people who don't want to meet you ?

From now on i will make it clear that i will only return with our photo if i like the look of them ... lol"

Throw darts at them

she either never intended to send you one in return and just wanted to get a look at your mug

your face totally turned her off

or you were so goodlooking she had a sudden attack of insecurity and didnt think she would be pretty enough in return

pick which ever one makes you feel better and stop moaning

I would wait for theirs before sending mine, you might not like the look of them.

And if the person who receives the picture first does not fancy the other, what would be the point? Not going anywhere, is it?

It is polite to open the door for someone. Do you spend all day outside your local department store opening the door for everyone?

If I do open a door for someone I don't slam it in their face if I don't like them.

"I've done this before, quite a few times. I do it if I'm not attracted to the person! I'm not going to send pics to a person I have no interest in!

This! What's the point sending a photo to someone your not interested in. I'd just send a polite no thanks and delete there message.

Its not the end of the world if you don't see the face of someone that's not going to meet you or continue conversing with you, in fact it's quite pointless, so chill out about it.

If you want to argue the "common curtesy" angle do you say hello to every single person you pass day to day because its curteous? I highly doubt it, they'd probably find you a bit weird for doing it

If seeing the persons face is so bloody important just contact profiles that have them publicly displayed, problem solved!
