"Blocked by a guy because we dont reply straight away.
We will move on and hopefully find kind and geuine people. His loss
"
Please done take this the wrong way but things like this happen on fab all the time. Don’t take it personally and don’t let it affect you to the point of it being drama. You won’t do your mental health any good. |

See it as a learning curve and don't worry about it as you are here for you  |

I don’t fret over blocks - just move on and don’t let it eat at you.
However my favourite block was when a local’ish couple were advertising a meet wanting a single guy and I messaged them…
They came back with a blunt message saying only ‘Thanks but we said 7 inches or bigger’
I composed a polite reply message saying actually I am longer than 7” and quite a nice girth, blah blah blah, pressed send and….
Blocked. 
I do hope that was intentional trolling because it was genius level blocking… indignant for about 10 seconds and then roaring with laughter. Made my evening. |

I received a message from a guy today, he had a profile pic so I opened the message. It wasn't an interesting message so did nothing. Within five minutes I got another way that just said "Rude"
I just laughed and blocked.
Don't be afraid to use or be offended by the block button. |

being blocked has nothing to do with being kind or genuine... its a tool that is use by most ..its a very much needed tool too ....
if someone blocking you upsets you then god help when you get your first abusive message or when the shit hits the fan..
you need thick skin and be able to stand your ground as a couple or a woman on this scene or it will eat you and spit you out |

Talking for awhile with a woman and then blocked, and I'm thinking well this is going well, she seems nice etc. Some strange folks it seems..."
Were you doing sex chat? |

I use the block button for numerous reasons
I'm sure others use it similarly
I don't give it a seconds thought as to why I might have been its time and energy that is better served on more fruitful activities  |

You weren't compatible and he realised that. He wanted to meet straightaway, you can't. Blocking saved him taking the conversation further. Women are advised to do this. |

I used to feel a bit down about being blocked as it always happens after I've sent my face pic, even if we'd been chatting and getting along before face pics were exchanged.
I couldn't help take it personally and felt a bit hurt by it as the recipient of my pic mustn't have found me attractive.
But over time I understand that it's just easier for some people to block someone they don't like the look of once they see what they look like rather than having to tell them they don't find them attractive or that they are not their type.
It's obviously a great function for pests and people who are rude, mean, insulting or God forbid aggressive.
You get used to being blocked even if you're a nu e person/people and have been getting along with people over messages. So don't worry about it.
I've been blocked twice today already and I thought things were going well beforehand. It's not the end if the world. |

Had someone message last week, reasonable message so went to respond a couple of minutes later after checking their profile (we always do that) but it was hidden so went to respond only to discover he'd blocked us...odd behaviour but stranger things have happened. |

I block to save myself time and energy….i message someone and leave it 2/3 days…if no reply and they have clearly been on I then block them.I am always polite when sending a message and address couples as exactly that. |

I wouldn’t take blocking personally, I’d rather focus my energy on those I’m compatible with. I personally wouldn’t block people who don’t reply as I’m very much aware women and couples get bombarded with messages, sometimes I just slip through the net... I’ve ended up meeting multiple people later down the line where that’s been the case.
I am guilty of blocking profiles that spam my timeline with too many pics and statuses though. Again, nothing against them, the block button just doubles up as a mute button for me too  |

I've had to do this a lot recently! Guys who are one minute lavishing praise on profile/pics, then "you're not all that" (or worse) abuse if you say "not for me sorry" or just impatient expecting FT fab admin is my life! 
Blocks are just a good way to steer clear of incompatible profiles, good luck finding the right ones. |

We have a simple rule, if people message us and they clearly haven't read the profile then we block them. It removes the hassle from those we are not interested in ever connecting with. We are sure many do the same, we give them a simple warning written on our profile, so either they can't read or message before ever reading the profile, which is rude. |

i pre block mainly local but if im 100% not interested then a pre block is good as it cut the unwanted messages right down
i blpck those with abusive status's or sexist racist crap ... and those who name and shame others for any reason i also block all those empty balls type status's too again makes my message box a better place..
i block on forums people i dont like or people who private from a forum post ...or again those bullies sexist racist types or those who use politics as a tool to sort our the childish crowd and lets not forget thoses who think their shit dont stink ...
block really is the best tool on fab it can make your swinging via fab so much more fun by just blocking out what does not interest you thats good and bad use it for how its supposed to be used and thats to make your YOUR journey on fab alot lot better 
you get nowhere on this scene being soft that just gets you walked over ... block the unwanted uninteresting away ..  |

I had the same happen to me, but with a man, we were getting on well, I thought we were going to meet, and then he blocks me, I just blocked him back, once I've been blocked, there's no going back |
