    If I had a "Peter" i would not call it that. I would probably call it Francis.

    because he needs to lighten up?

    Sometimes the best response is to ignore it completely, not acknowledging it all and ending the conversation. The complex that the sender gets from that then becomes of his own insecurities.

    I like this, but maybe keep the conversation going without acknowledging receipt. If he asks, deny it was received and he can wonder about where that picture may have gone.

    This wouldn’t work for me. It would feel like playing games and that makes me uncomfortable.

    If it were a stranger I would just block contact and delete or junk box it as evidence in case he escalated.

    A friend who made a faux pas would get a warning most likely.

    Valid point.

    Honestly I think alot of guys who do this are expressing theyre frustration of a lack of a sex life this way so they are just like *kitten* it throwing up a hail mary which will more than likely not be caught.

    I also think its hard to send those kind of pics on MFP....no? Dont you usually need Instagram, or Snapchat or something like that? I dont have any other social media other than here. Anytime i have been asked to send such a pic its because they gave me another way to send it.....or i simply said no i cant.

    Usually, it is done through normal texts. Using Apps is newer and more cloak n dagger, which allows for secretive license.

    so, the cool thing about snapchat is that you can set a timer on the pic so it disappears quickly making it harder to screenshot AND you are alerted if a screenshot is taken. Of course there are workarounds.

    Instagram autodeletes photos taken in app but not ones that are attached. I don’t know much about the different settings because ive never really played with them.

    But yes, if there is trust and/or you don’t mind your photos being saved, text works fine.

    Something about Snapchat seems shady to me.

    because it can be used by inappropriate ages and to keep secrets.
