How do you 'end' your online encounter?

So, you start chatting to someone from a dating site and you strike up common ground and attraction, then you progress to phone and then decide to meet.

After meeting they then decide that you're not right for each other.

What do you do with their profile? Block? Delete? Leave it so they can still see you online and rue the day they rejected you? :laugh: What???

Or if you reject them?

What happens to all these 'dead' profiles?

    I just leave it and not talk to them again unless they are persuing it more after being turned down. If they keep after it then I will block them.

    I usually just camp outside her house, take photos of everyone who enters or exits, follow her everywhere she goes and tell myself that she truly loves me but just needs more time to sort it out.

    I usually just leave the profile and stop talking to them. I have only had to block a couple of people, but that was because they wouldn't leave me alone.

    I think I have done all of the above depending on how I felt about the guy. If he was a good guy but just no chemistry I might leave him. If he was awkward, I block immediately.

    The rue the day thing only works for about a week and then it's best for your own mental health to delete said rue-er! :tongue:

    Aw Thanks. Maybe the current object of my affection will drive to Iowa sometime and we can meet. Don't worry about directions, I already know where you live. :happy:

    I've never had to block anyone. Usually if there's no chemistry it just kinda fizzled. One guy told me he wasn't feeling it for me. Others just didn't ask me out if they weren't interested and if I wasn't interested I just turned down their next request. If they asked again I just told them I didn't think we were a match.

    But I never had anyone I actually met in person go crazy on me this time around. I did have a couple guys go e-crazy on me when I told them I didn't think we should meet cuz I could already tell we weren't compatible. I just ignored them and they went away.

    If I'm not interested, I poof. I've only had 1 situation where I had to block a guy because he kept bugging me and pissed me off!

    Most of the time, I got a 2nd date. With guys I didn't, I wasn't interested either so it worked out fine for me!!

    My online encounters like that have been pretty mutual, I think. If we didn't hit it off, neither one of us contacted the other. I did have to tell one that I just wasn't interested, but he was very understanding, thanked me for not leading him on and that was that.

    On the flip side of that, there was a guy I thought I really hit it off with (pre-date), then he fell off the face of the planet a few days before our scheduled date. I messaged him and asked if we were still on and I got a message back saying that he would be out of the country for a while and he'd "let me know" when he was available again. Considering he dropped me from his favorites and blocked me, I guess that's an option too. I still have NO IDEA what triggered the sudden 180. Oh well. :ohwell:

    That's the plot of just about every 80's romantic comedy.

    No. Do I have competition? Are you cheating on me?
