since yesterday, someone has been connected several times, but he does not read my messages any more.
Is it possible that he has blocked me without any explanation? Would I get notified, when I am being blocked or not?

I don't think you get informed. I think the messages just don't appear for you or them. Someone can be signed in and not open messages if they choose, maybe that's it. If I were you I'd just write to the site and ask or look for site info which explains the rules and features. I wish you luck, take care.

I did search the help first and did not find any information about blocking else I would not ask the question here.

My mails are in my outbox as unread. Does this mean that he has them in his inbox just not reading them?

When a site has a feature like blocking, it should be known how it works.

Hallo, well if your mails are still in your outbox, marked as unread, they have not been read yet. Your receiver hasn´t got on them or may be has deleted them in the status of unread.

I believe he just may not be reading them. I would write the site and ask that question because the feature may have changed.

i recently had to block someone and her letter was still in my outbox as unread but that was before the block and i had just deleted her mail without reading it.. then i blocked her and i'll never know if she has mailed me again or not....
i think Lene is correct when you are blocked it just does not show up in the other ones mail.

this site does no help with problems - I have a problem with advanced search not working, I used the 'give feedback' option and I never got a reply, nor did I get any help on a thread asking the question to the admins.

I just remember last summer that there was someone (not mentioning names) that was misrepresenting herself with a photo and insisting it was her. I found proof it wasn't. A couple good souls who gave her the benefit of the doubt blocked me. My e-mail to them would just disappear like nothing was ever sent. I couldn't even see them.

thanks adj4u for your cooperation. I am not usually getting blocked, so that was helpfull.

When I tried to send you a message, there was the following error message:

_______________________
Your email has been blocked:

You may not reply to this message. Mail to this member has been blocked
_______________________


So now I know that that guy did not block me. Anyhow, after pestering him with several emails and greeting cards he finally had the civility to reply and make the excuse that I am too far away as the reason why he does not want to continue the contact.

Fact is that he is in the USA, Ma, and I am in Germany. But then, it was his initiative, he contacted me first and he seemed to be quite interested in getting to know me and the distance did not seem a problem at all.

The distance is just a stupid excuse, I think he is just a coward not capable to tell the truth bluntly. He maybe did not like my photo, which I had send to him on his request, or I just happened to be the first reacting with a positive reply to his initiative, and then someone else replied, whom he likes more.

In both cases, it is very bad manners to keep silent, not open my messages and make me wait for a reply. Well, I know now, so I can calmly shake the sand off my feet and move on. I hate uncertainty.

one day you might feel irritated about someone not answering your mails without an explanation, I wish you that then someone else mocks you.

I dont understand why people take not being replied toso personally.You dont even know the person.I would rather they didnt reply than say oh your too ugly or fat. People get busy and sometimes lose interest and thats that.At least he made an attempt at a reply so be grateful for that. If he has read your very bitter posts then i can see why he changed his mind.Lighten up a wee bit. :)

I can take any reply from someone, even someone saying that he does not like my picture. I would even take it, if ever anybody were to bluntly tell me I am ulgy. The main point is to KNOW that there is nothing more to wait for. Waiting in ignorance is so much more unpleasant than any truth.

To write very nice mails and then suddenly stop without an explanation is a very cruel game. I spent more than 24 hours waiting for mail before I posted here.
I am indeed very gratefull that he finally made it clear that the correspondence is over. Even though I wanted to continue the contact, I do feel relief to know the truth.

If I contact someone and there is no reply, that is no problem, but no reply after an exchange of several long and meaningfull mails is a different situation.

Just let this go. No one deserves this much of ur time when they're being this inconsiderate. I've had this happen to me a few times and it doesn't really bother me that communication suddenly stopped as much as he thinks it's ok to treat someone this way and i'm glad i didn't get involved with him. It's their loss and that's all u can say about it. You can't change it nor stop it from happening again. That's why dating sucks whether it's on the computer or in person. You always have to weed thru the losers to find that one special person. Stay hopeful but don't give this guy another min of ur time.

DBeauty, I was done with it.

But then you wrote this:


"A sigh of relief is in order for that man."


I interpreted this sentence as telling me that this guy should make a sigh of relief to be rid of such a horrible person as me, even though you do not even know me, and I felt mocked.

Have I misunderstood you? As English is not my native language, I am prone to misunderstand sometimes.
