Many communications flooding my inbox, needless to say, simply said “hey how are you” because no body is initial, particularly on POF.

I do want to simply simply take a moment to see that I’m sure men and women have a selection of viewpoints on what much to take into account politics whenever finding anyone to date. We have addressed this prior to in a write-up which was acquired by consideration Catalog me) if you want a more detailed explanation of my opinion on this (that’s not my real last name, so don’t bother stalking. Nevertheless the point is, they are MY values and the choices with regards to dating. We don’t expect everybody to feel because highly as me personally on this problem, plus some non-Trump supporters may extremely very well be prepared to date a supporter, and that is their option. That connected post goes in why we won’t do this, but irrespective, the purpose of the site that is dating to locate a person who meets your personal choices. And once again, I don’t think my description on my profile for why i did son’t desire to date somebody who voted for Trump was at any real means disrespectful, it had been simply describing my views and just why these people were crucial that you me personally.

Anyhow, within the last couple weeks, I’ve gotten some one-off that is random supporting communications such as for instance:

I obtained a few from individuals who started off rude then weirdly seemed enthusiastic about me personally:

We’dn’t have boring wedding. Wtf. We reported this 1 but he could be nevertheless here.

I obtained some that simply arrived out of the gate with a lecture

Ahhhh, the classic move of calling a girl who disagrees with you fat. We reported this person might 2, he is still here.

I obtained a few that started off non-political but later on chose to make use of it as an insult once I wasn’t tripping over myself to speak to them

This is basically the ONE individual through the past few weeks that POF did eliminate. I assume “salty cunt” is when the line is drawn by them!

That is merely a sampling of exactly exactly just what I’ve gotten throughout the the adult hub last three days. We have sometimes had this issue elsewhere it right away, and it has happened maybe twice on OKC but I contacted them and they eventually removed the profiles in question— I think something like this happened once on Bumble, but their awesome moderators took care of. But on POF, this matter generally seems to run rampant — and once again, that is ONLY an example of JUST politically-related messages I’ve gotten in three months. I’ve had a couple of other rude communications that We haven’t bothered including right right here.

My plan would be to keep this up for a couple more months and carry on screenshots that are collecting get this post also funnier, but final night/this early morning another thing occurred and I’ve decided it is where i need to draw the line.

I acquired these communications from a man yesterday evening:

Their profile stated he had been a company owner, and so I could be sure to never patronize it so I did a reverse image search on his pictures to try to figure out what his business was. I came across their Instagram and Twitter, and also the individual from their photos is truly a man that everyday lives in Las vegas, nevada (extremely definately not where We reside), and it has held it’s place in a relationship with a person since 2015. At this stage we either knew that their pictures was indeed taken or that some random guy that is gay Nevada had been posing being an East Coast right guy merely to harass ladies. He previously great deal of pictures of the man, too!

This I messaged his boyfriend about it morning. I happened to be a small afraid to message the profile straight in the event it certainly ended up being him, but We felt like some body should be aware. He confirmed they’re certainly taken photos so we had a great laugh about any of it, but despite me personally reporting this profile for rude messages as well as fake pictures, and tweeting at POF in regards to the problem, their profile remains up. Provided, this has just been 1 day, but that is this kind of violation that is egregious of privacy that there’s no reason because of this. If this situation is remedied we shall formally be deleting my POF profile, maybe maybe maybe not “hiding,” actually deleting, for forever.
