^ Yes. Fastest and easiest way to handle it.



It is disturbing how rampant overdeveloped senses of entitlement are in society, unfortunately especially amongst het men. I do admit having some of that years ago, until more clearly understanding that no one owes me anything beyond basic civility to the degree they choose to interact with me—and same the other way around.

No wonder (in general) women don’t respond: the probability of hostility is extremely high no matter what her answer. And every non-response is time not wasted: saved for productive life activities.



I’ve had a sample of this since putting up a femme-presenting avatar pic here on FF. It’s eye-opening, and in my case usually amusing.

Soooo many, I can usually tell which ones are catfish but some of them are getting pretty good! I've changed my profile to say I'm a gainer and I like mutual gaining. However, I still get some of them messaging me asking me to send them money for food lol. Nope!

C00kie who usually runs the FF Team account has been off this last week and it really makes a difference when she’s not hear. Just goes to show how much she does working in the background to keep these scammers off the site.

You’ll know when it’s Real.

I've definitely gotten a few messages from people more so looking for money. Especially feabie. I can usually tell as they don't read my profile and assume I'm here to hook up or again they are hoping for money. They usually lose interest quick when you don't go along with either sending money or fawning all over them. Whether it's people from outside the community looking for a few bucks or to take advantage. People from in the community looking for the same or scammers pretending to be something they aren't. No matter who you are, just take it slow and be careful. If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

Half of my "viewed profile" notifs have left the site by the time I check them, and I'm on here a lot.

Yeah, I've been getting some lately too. It's strange, I'm hardly ever active.
