So I received a message from a woman last night, we chatted a little then she said she would send me a face pic, if I sent her 1 first, so I sent her a couple, to which she read my message and immediately block me, nice confidence booster haha. Now I know I'm not gonna be every women's type, why settle for maybe 7/10 when there's probably many 10/10 on here, but why not just tell me she wasn't interested , rather than being ignorant and blocking me, especially when she initiated the conversation in the first place. Rant over  |

Would it have helped if she had told you that you are unattractive? |

Harsh I know. But peopl react different ways, I'm unsure how I would tell somebody that I'm not physically attracted to them. Although I get it if I'm told, I'm not comfertable in telling a girl, there not good looking to me.
Maybe blocking or deleting is an easy safe option.
Accept it and move on. |

"Just her way of saying you're not her type..and by blocking you she knows she wont chat to you again unless she wants too"
that's fair, though we didn't speak about arranging a meet, it was just general chat, so her not being attracted to me was irrelavent.

I often think people are somewhat cold when it comes to these threads.
OP, this has happened to me before and it does hurt at first. I can see why it would bother you. However, it is pretty standard around here and something you just kind of get used to. There will be plenty who are attracted to you.
And to anyone asking, yes, I would personally prefer if someone just said I wasn't for them then to be blocked out of the blue. It does make a difference - closure makes a difference. Maybe not to circumstances, but to mindsets.
Everyone claims they want messages that show the person messaging wants them and isn't just copy and pasting tons of messages and then wonders why it bothers someone to be rejected in such a careless way.
People should do what they want, including blocking without rejection. That's fine. But I can understand the emotional response it often redults in. |

Some people do not have the confidence to reject someone with a message as they fear it comes across as harsh so the simple thing to do is delete or block. There is no right or wrong way to do things on here and manners do seem to go out of the window  |

It wasn't very nice of her, some people are a bit tactless. I was blocked by someone because of a remark I made on facebook, some people are too touchy.
She should of just said sorry but youre not really my type. |

"People often describe those who have blocked them as "ignorant", which seems like a strange use of the word.
How are they ignorant? Of what are they ignorant?"
I wouldn't use ignorant either. I would call them cunts x |

Absolutely this.
People whine when they perceive others as treating them like a piece of meat yet do the exact same to other people!  |

I've had the same thing happen to me only a few days ago! I sent the pic as was asked from me, I got blocked immediately.
Bit shocked but then I laughed.
If they can't be arsed to say no thanks, you're not my type, I'm delighted I didn't get to meet their rude selves in person! |

Best thing to do is just have a face pic available on your profile, that way they'll know what you look like before hand saves a lot of trouble
But I appreciate many aren't comfortable with that |

It is hard to accept when you've been chatting and get dismissed on a purely physical level, sadly there's not a lot that you can do OP, take it on the chin and move on. No one is attractive to everyone and perceptions of beauty change, keep your self belief and don't become bitter about it. Trust me it will come good |

I know it can be difficult after chatting for a bit to say 'sorry you're not my type' because I don't enjoy doing it myself.
I do do it though. Blocking is pretty cowardly but I know some people take rejection very badly and blocking can avoid comeback.
If I felt I had to block in this situation I'd send the sorry message before blocking.
When I make first contact, (when my face pics aren't public, as they are currently), I usually send face pics with the message. That way people can decide before any exchange of messages, after which it can be more difficult to say no.
It would be easier if everyone had clear body pics and sent a face pic with messages. |

"I got blocked for refusing a second meet.
Its fickle on here .....so get some rhino skin and pour a glass of wine and listen to the Worzels."
If you didn't want a second meet, why did it matter if you were blocked?
Maybe it was sour grapes and they wanted to remove your veri or maybe it was so they didn't accidentally contact you again. |

That is possible.
I've declined people because I didn't think they'd be interested in me in the past.
Now I try to let them make up their own mind rather than deciding what they'll think. |

People need to stop thinking they're ugly if they get rejected. I'm attracted to certain people, but not others, some of the men I turn down because 'm not attracted to are quite good looking, but may not have a certain something that another might |

Op we have blocked lots of people, don't take it personally mate. It just makes it easier. That being said it is a little rude if you've been chatting and then you just get blocked, but then there are some really rude people about. |

^ this. Sometimes a no from me is actually a not right now. I go through phases during which I'm less interested in meets so less likely to say yes to someone, even if another time I'd be over them like a rash!
I think most of us have phases like that.
I've also had guys message me about a meet several weeks/months after they ignored a message from me. Either they missed my message, forgot to answer or accidentally deleted it, or I looked more attractive after they'd been declined by everyone hotter and they'd finally got round to me!
I try not to second guess now though sometimes it's difficult not to. |

She could have said you weren't for her, maybe it was a guy masquerading as a woman so couldn't send a pic, maybe she recognised you. Who knows.
I try not to block but I have if you get those who wAnt to use you as wank fodder. It goes along the lines of -
hi,
hi back ,
how's you?
I'm good thanks,
my cock is throbbing want to see?
No thanks
It's really hard now
No that's not what I'm into
I'll show you
Then I get to the point where I think, they really aren't getting this, the blood is all in their cock and I block. |

I suppose one way of looking at it, is that, someone may not like a person based on a pic but may feel differently if meeting in person, and vice versa. |

I'd have blocked at "it's really hard now" stage. You have more patience than I! |

Yup.
I can tell if I don't find someone attractive (physically) from a photo but to be sure I do, I have to meet them.
I can't easily translate a 2D pic into an idea of a 3D face. |

Nope. Unless you pm a mod and ask them to do it.
Otherwise it will close at 175 posts. |

People overestimate how much they mean to the person who sent the face pic. They daren't say that you're not their type in case you are so beset with sorrow that you immediately set off to Tibet to live the remainder of your days as a monk.
Or. Blocking is just easier. Lol. I'm sure we've all been on both sides of the coin |

I think, actually, she did think I was ugly because she was happy to chat with me before she saw my face. It was only after she say it that she blocked me. |

I don't really see a small avatar of half my face as a real face picture to be honest.
I know I'd want to see a proper face picture if I were me. |
