I just rejoined Bumble. I matched with someone and we had a few messages. He suggested meeting up and I suggested a phone call. I can now not see any of our messages. I assume he has "unmatched" me if that is a thing or is it because I haven't paid the subscription. It seems rather strange. Anyone experienced this?

It's nothing to do with a paid subscription, unfortunately he's unmatched or deleted his account.

Oh well, he obviously didn't want a phone call then! Grin

Either unmatched or hus account got deleted.
Maybe he was a pervert or a catfish and he got blocked.

He seemed quite normal and we had things in common. It's strange that I suddenly can't see any messages on Bumble. I guess that's the way it works

Just sounds like he shat it and vanished then.

Some people can't handle phonecalls. Probably best you found out he was that way early on.

I think having a phone call can be easier to arrange things and you can get an idea if you click. Maybe it's a bit forward.

This is the third Pisces man who has disappeared/gone quiet. They seem keen then back off. Maybe there's something in horoscopes lol

You're not wrong, it's normal to want a chat on the phone before meeting up, if that's too scary for them, then how would that handle a date! Probably just not seriously wanting to date.

Pisces men - just avoid, womanisers with addiction problems, unless most men are like this Confused

Perhaps he was married and therefore couldn't do the phone call?

rooftopvilla · 22/06/2022 19:51

Maybe. He said he'd been on a date a few months ago though. I think he just wasn't that into me. Read the book, seen the movie Grin

I wouldn't want to speak on the phone in these circumstances. I don't see how anyone can tbh! But I have a friend who always phone calls before a first meet up.

It doesn't really matter what the reason was though. Online dating is full of this sort of thing you just have to ignore it and move on. I might have been surprised a couple of times by it when I did it years ago but that's all.

Yeah seems like he's either deleted his whole account or just your conversation. Watch out for him coming back with some excuse. Proceed with caution. Nothing wrong with asking for a phonecall, i always did this and if they didnt want to speak on the phone i felt that it would be abit odd. Even a quick 5min chat isnt too taxing. I was guilty of getting fed up with bumble and then creating a new profile a few days later when i got bored again, it happens.

Deleted account would still show messages but there would be a great/blank circle where his profile pic appeared, and you wouldn’t be able to reply. If everything had vanished, he’s unmatched.

jellybeanrap · 23/06/2022 18:07

He must have unmatched then. I guess a phone call was a little scary for him. Poor thing! I don't he'll be coming back Grin
