A polite no?
So as I’m here looking for an IE lots of people spring up that I’m not physically attracted too, how do you let that person down without sounding horrible and blunt?
I’m a nice person and I find telling people you’re not my type really offensive so I end up ghosting them which is also bad but how else can I say it?

Ghosting is disrespectful and annoying, we are all adults and can take rejection if we can't then we should be on here. i have being toasted several times and its not nice ,everyone deserves respect no matter if they are your type or not .
i treat people how i want to be treated

When in real life someone plucks up the courage to ask you out on a date (OK, for some of us this was a long time ago) you wouldn't just walk away and ignore them or avoid them indefinitely so why do people think its OK to ghost/block just because its an electronic platform and not a physical one?

Ghosting is disrespectful and annoying, if you don't like to happen to you then don't do it others.
Be polite and respectful, we are all adults and a rejection is part of life. We should all be able to handle a rejection and move on.
I'm sure there is someone out there for, just be patient and keep trying

Definitely agree a polite not for me but good luck looking is far better than ghosting ... although I do find it difficult when someone then says comes back and asks why .... if someone said that to me I’d just move on ... : ) absolutely understand I’m not everyone’s type ... but everyone’s different ...

I think a nice polite, thanks but no thanks would suffice. Although some folk on here don’t take no very well. Ghosting really isn’t okay in my view.

How about "Hi, we all have a 'type' and I'm afraid you're not quite mine. Thank you, though and good luck".
Clear, concise and honest.

I struggle with this also as don't want to come across as rude. I do find it funny though when you see how old some of the men's pictures are 😂

I'm totally puzzled as to how it is rude to send someone a polite "No thanks" but not rude (as well as ignorant) to ghost them!!! 😲🤷🏻♀️

All this ghosting and there was me thinking I’d turned you all to stone!! It’s truly a relief to know you just didn’t fancy me. :-)
