Blocked for no reason?

Ok just wondering. I've recently sent a few polite emails to single ladies and couples. Only to be blocked for no reason.
Would be nice if I was told we are blocking you because you are Indian or that I'm an ugly sod. I can accept that.
Anyone else experience the same ??? |

They may look and decide your not what they are looking for..and where as in an ideal world they would send you a message they simply may have to many messages..
Or you may well have not read what they were after so they automatically block.. I do that with some..

three words for you...

It could have been an error, and blocks are reversible, so they may be in touch at some point. In general, I think it's good etiquette to not persistently message someone that one doesn't hear from, either if one has been blocked or not.
As others say, just accept that they're not for you, and you can continue having your hot fun with others. |

People always have a reason. They don't have to say what the reason is, they don't have to mail you. Its all about choice and if you can't accept others have a choice then you might have a problem. |

Our policy is to simply delete messages from people who very clearly haven't read our profile properly,but to send polite rejections to those who clearly have, but in whom we are not interested. Most of the recipients of these messages thank us for taking the trouble to reply, or just 'move on', but
a few take umbrage. One, funnily enough, called himself a British Indian and asked us whether we were 'racist'.I resisted the urge to give him a lecture on the real definition of the term 'racism' and to tell him that having been to India twenty times, each time for a minimum of two months, I had therefore probably seen more of India and Indians than he had, and simply blocked him.
People are different, and there's no pleasing everybody! |

Hi mate. I wouldn't worry about it and it isn't you that has the problem by any means.
You ask a reasonable question and as ever it gets the bones picked out of it.
I think probably the answer is that there are so many guys that people look at your message and profile and if they decide you aren't for them (for whatever reason) they block so you can'tmessage again.
Bit of a screening process to whittle people down. I wouldnt worry about it at all. |

I noticed that too! OP as you've noticed a lot of single men get blocked, it doesn't have to be because you're Asian: lose the chip! |

I dont have anything against people having their opinions on the colour of a persons skin. Didnt mean to come accross like I have..
As i said before it's their loss.. |

but the point sassy is making is that is isn't really there loss... they made a decision... move on!!!
and you were the one that brought up you were asian twice... no one else!!!
if this is the way you take rejection again i would suggest this is not the activity for you.... |

Probably best if you dont get a reply to take it as a no and dont go looking at their profiles or contacting them again, I block if ive said no and they still scour your profile for days its creepy.
And as for the its their loss comment, get over yourself, its about not being suitable and that comment makes you sound very immature. IMHO |

That is a very good point. The your loss thing just makes someone look petchulent. |

Don't let it bother you,some people find it easier to hit the block button than have to explain any reasons for you not being what they're looking for
You have a few meets under your belt so you're doing something right and having fun along the way
Just concentrate on the fun side of being here |

Lol ok I was just saying im not really that fussed was just wondering if its common practise to block people without sending them a message..
Ive been on here a while now and met some great people. And yes there is a larger number of males on here than females or couples and appreciate that they must get inundated with messages.
It was only a general question......
