blocking should be normalized. it clears both your chats, minimizes unnecessary drama, and gets your profiles off each other's grids

I usually don’t respond. I sometimes say thanks but that we’re not a match

user4613551248608 :
sadly learned that responding at all was a sign to them that there was some chance.... so i moved to not responding. if they keep messaging then it's a block

“Send a not my type msg” is for someone ur actively in conversations with, not an answer to a first message. Otherwise no response is a response.

Anyone who sends follow up messages, from not getting a response, enrages me

No response is a response at first. If they keep trying/messaging, I either let them m its not a match or block, depending on my mood.

I don’t care if someone says not my type it’s clear communication there’s no reason to be annoyed.

Hey, it’s me the loudest minority. You’re right ignoring is the norm but the norm isn’t right.

Hey so there’s a lot of variables. If they have a detailed profile with interests etc and you message them striking up conversation about those interests, and your profile is also filled out indicating you’re equally putting effort into matching with someone, it’s the mature thing to send a “thanks for the message, but not my type” reply. Acknowledging that the other party actually put some thought into their message. But if someone is messaging from a blank profile or a very-obviously-only-here-for-hookups type profile, then they are already exhibiting a cut-to-the-chase mentality, and a non-reply is simply matching their energy. And it’s okay to leave those guys on read. And similarly, if you message a guy that’s clearly just looking for fun, you have no reason to expect him to reply to messages from guys he’s not interested in. He’s there for one thing, you obviously see that, you shoot your shot, don’t get a reply, there you go. Simple. Remember, Grindr is NOT the same as walking up to a stranger and saying “hi”. Men on Grindr are sending “hey handsome” messages to dozens of guys in a row. It’s completely transactional. Those types of messages are not owed a response. It’s like saying you owe a telemarketer your attention, or you owe a LinkedIn recruiter bot your attention.

blocking is kind. out of site out of mind. nothing like clicking on a profile only to see they left you on read six months ago.

So I’m a fan of replying. However my preference is not saying “not my type” but something a bit more kind “we aren’t a match”

I agree but so many people don't get that no response is a response

It really depends tho... if the person has a full profile and they seem interesting and nice. I'd prefer telling them I find them cool / good looking but they are not my type, what if i run into them or they know an oomf?? Telling someone you don't wanna sleep with them on the hook up app shouldn't be weird lol. If its an empty profile or someone on tina or just sending noods or being weird... block idc. But all of you sound rude lowk 😭

Because I’d rather not be responded to and forget about it and a few minutes then be reminded that I’m not found attracted by someone with a typed out message.

rivertheratman🇮🇪 :
No is a response, it’s a hookup app, people don’t know you and don’t owe you any form of contact. However most guys seem to not get that and spam increasingly aggressive messages until you eventually block them.

Personally it does sting a little getting that kind of message, but then I remind myself that I have also rejected, usually by not responding at all because I don’t want to have confrontation. Also, I prefer no response because I don’t need a confirmation that you’re not into me. It’s obvious.

i answer.. talk a bit.. and slowly answer with single words in hopes they understand.

I think you'd get a different response if one of the choices was "Not interested" instead of "not my type."

This is the problem with our community. We’re so afraid of rejection that we much rather them just ghost so that gives the impression that it’s OK to ghost. It’s OK to reject and it’s OK to be rejected.

Blocking honestly is completely valid. Too many guys take it upon themselves to start harassing guys for not being interested. No response is = saying you’re not interested
