Who have you blocked, and why?

The thread "Oh Lawd" below inspired me to ask this question...

Who have you blocked from contact in an OLD site, and why?

I'll start with my most recent: This guy e-mailed me and made a LONG case in his first e-mail why I should go for him. He seemed really great, and we e-mailed a few times - exchanging likes, dislikes, etc. He then asked for my phone number, never called - and then made excuses by e-mail why he didn't call.

After about a week of no call, no e-mail -- he sent me an e-mail telling me he'd met *the perfect woman* and gushed about how sweet and wonderful she was and how she could be *the one.* Wow - flattering to me, eh? (note the sarcasm) Well, big fat surprise -- two weeks later, he e-mails me to say it didn't work out with her, and would I still be interested?? Oh, yeah, buddy - please, can I sign up to be your back-up girl?

I wrote him back to tell him that he didn't handle himself all that well, and blocked him.

AJ, enjoying life with C.

one guy emailed and made a case also as to why we are great fit. I did not like his profile so did not respond. He emails again saying he was wondering if I accidentaly forgot to respond. so I blocked him.
I met one guy who misrepresented himself on the site so I blocked him kuz he is a liar :)

I usually block the guys who write emails calling me "babe" and telling me how perfect and beautiful I am. Just too creepy.

Good thread!


Here's my recents:


1) Penis boy... no explanation needed. LOL


2) Philly boy... during our first convo (which might I add was very intellectual) he mentioned going out to meet girls. Well, that's nice but I thought you were trying to meet me?


3) Narcissitic boy... Our emails were great but via IM, one of his first questions was "so what attracted you to me? my boyish good looks?" It just got worse from there. I'm no one's ego booster. Oh yeah... BLOCK.

I blocked Guy #2 (hunter/biker guy from Iowa) who instant msg. me after 3 months of no contact saying he had some "free time" between hunting seasons. I blocked him after that last conversation. His profile is back on yahoopersonals for the THIRD time since I first met him.

Oh yeah, I had a 20-something guy send me a penis picture--don't think he even had a profile on any site. Told him to grow up and get a life then blocked him.
