Apologies if a repeat post...have trawled back through a couple of pages and couldnt see it.

How do you know if you have been blocked by someone? I sent someone a message - I know she looked at my profile but now the message has been completely erased from my sent items - never seen this before.

^^^ you can? when did this happen?

When I end up having to block guys, the mail they sent completely disappears so I'd only imagine it's the same on their end. We could try it. Send me an email and I'll block you

I block all women who just want to have sex with me, but I don't bother to check whether their mail gets deleted. I thought the block was from that moment on. On second thought, who cares? They are blocked for a reason...

Ok, I blocked you. Did your sent email go POOF?

Yes, I do have to block guys quite often. Some won't take no for an answer.

This means you were blocked. Why would she do that? Most likely due to the fact that she has received nasty second emails in the past from guys who were upset at her for not responding to the original email. Blocking you eliminates this possibility.

My goodness, what did you say to the poor girl!?

Don't take it personal. Some have just gotten uptight around here, some rightly so, others just paranoid.

For whatever reasons, people don't want the person they block to know but there are signs.
They will disappear from your favorite lists
They won't appear in search results
Emails and correspondence to and from will vanish.
Oh and you can send a random email to the handle if you remember it and it will tell you if that person has blocked you.
One more thing is to try logging out then performing a search in the same area, if she appears when you are logged out and not when you are logged in them you have most certainly been blocked.
P.S
I am not a stalker, i am just very technically minded so given a problem like this i figure out how the site works and how to circumvent things like this.

I never get women who just want to have sex with me.

Ugh, I feel left out :-/

You'll be complaining when they do, because its easy for women to find that offline so the ones online tend to be a bit nuts..

If she did not reply to your message, it means she is not interested. So what does it really matter if you have been blocked or not?

Many women block guys they are not interested in just so they don't get follow up messages either begging for a 2nd chance or insulting them for not replying. Why do women block guys? Mainly because so many guys are a-holes and can't handle rejection.

This.

I don't *THINK* I've even been blocked, but then again, I've never sent a second message. Although I'm not against it.

never been blocked before but my female friends block any guy they do not like on the pic or income is not to their level so they filter out only guys they may accept , my friends even laugh when they do it saying , "eeewww, ugly poor dweep e-mailed me , gotta block the undesireable" , they are women , it is in their nature to reject guys for any reason when they are way older they only dream about that poor ugly dweeb they [passed.

Do not take it personally , it is in their nature to them guys are abundant and come and go, that is why so many dating books and foreign women sites exists that is because of that attitude.

You guys don't get it, for as many crazy women there are on here, there's a corresponding number of angry men. I get guys who are so pissed off because I don't respond. If I don't respond some will email me over and over or just email me nasty angry stuff. Thank goodness for the block feature. I don't need to be harassed while I am just looking for love. javascript:smilie('')

If I block undesirable women (like your friends), would this keep them from showing up in searches?

Thats what I was wondering. The only time I have blocked someone is they used inappropriate language or were a total pest.

Really? That sounds rather unbelievable ... I didn't know there was a place for us to list our income for all to see? Besides, they can't block anyone until they have at least received an email from them.


If I block undesirable women
How do you want to block these women if they have never written to you?

OT ...
Read/Deleted, Unread/Deleted, Blocked, No Answer ... it all means the same = they are not interested.
