RESEARCH - obsessiveness - IMPORTANT

RESEARCH - obsessiveness - IMPORTANT

I have a question for you all - I didn't feel like making this a poll.

Please spend a minute let know your experience - I'd appreciate that.

When browsing either members online or the home page where members' thumbs show, I often hover see people's basic stats and slightly larger pics, location/distance, etc.

Recently a member has been contacting me telling me that I've been obsessively visiting her profile. I explained her that yes, I visited her profile, read it, and loved her pictures, etc. once, some time ago, but after reaching out and not hearing back, then hearing back with her concern that I was 'always' visiting her profile, I purposefully try avoid it. Then after she kept reaching out , I began wonder what she was talking about. She sent a screengrab of the recent visitors showing a few minutes earlier.

make a long story short, she keeps doing this... hounding about it, but I am not visiting her page, though I do occasionally hover on her image (she changes them so there are different ones showing up fairly often, which I don't recognize as her's).

She mentions multiple times in her profile that people should not obsessively visit her profile, and because I'm an easy going person, I've not gotten pissed about this yet, but find it very annoying that she warns against obsessively visiting her profile but then obsessively points out each time I show up in her 'recently visited' list. I rarely log out of here - and yesterday while I was listening music videos and taking an online course, she chimed in and said I'd done it again. I was not visiting any profiles, or even on the site, though it was open in another window.

Previously we'd had some conversations about this, and we even tested see what was triggering it, and she seemed understand at that time that I'm not actively visiting or even hovering. We discovered that all I need do is rest long enough for the profile preview pop up (less than 1 second) and she gets a notice that I've viewed her profile. I thought she'd accepted that it's a fluke and does not actually mean I'm visiting her profile, but then she has continued contact telling I've done it again.

So the question is - do others (women in particular) see the same people visiting constantly? If so, does it worry you, that others might be obsessing on your profile? And have any of you run into the profile I'm referring to? She said this has never happened before, but then her profile, eloquent as it is,, has several mentions of obsessive visiting being unwanted, so that tells me she must have had it happen before.

I welcome your thoughts!

OH - and one more thing. I HATE IT when she is on, because I have to be so careful to avoid her profile. Again - she changes pictures regularly (unless there is an algorithm that does it automatically, but I've not seen other profile pictures change regularly, so I don't think that is the case.)

Just accidentally dragging the cursor over their thumbnail on the front page while scrolling down the page registers as a profile visit. I am amazed on what pops up when I see which profiles I have viewed. Sometimes, it appears that I was Mario after he a caught a star and ran through all the thumb nails on the entire webpage.

If she's not happy about the attention, then she should block you.

Thanks - I suggested that several times, but finally told her I'd block her instead. She is still showing - maybe the reason of the member being annoyed by this isn't enough reason to block her? Thanks!

Im curious about profiles, so I do look at them more than once, or at least hover over one to see if I've already seen it. I was accused of "leading people on", so I've just changed changed my privacy settings so people can't see when I've viewed them.

These are most likely "Site" generated views, Hookup.Date Naughty Affair Dating does that to make people think they r popular and to keep u interested. It seems to run in cycle, ie ur situation where someone thinks u r viewing them. Even blocking them doesn't stop it.
She needs to get on with business and ignore it. Her constantly sending u msgs just keeps the cycle going!

Great point! (about it perpetuating the problem) - if I hear from her again, I'll note that... thanks!

...Me gusto tu curiosidad y ponerle un rótulo como "obsesividad" me pareció un poco ilógico...uno hace su perfil...por ende es para mostrarlo...y lo VEAN...y ...si pensaramos a la inversa...nadie mira mi PERFIL? cual seria la lógica de esta usuaria?
...la otra... Simple...llana.. lineal...sin rodeos ...ni discusión...que te bloquee...

Gracias
Estoy de acuerdo y le he sugerido que me bloquee. Le pregunté por qué le importa y nunca respondió. Quizás es un poco obsesiva compulsiva.

I have a few who constantly appear as - having viewed me.
I went and put out a friend request. She stopped, or went PRIVATE.
I have a few more who do that. I don't worry about it. But I get your point.
Hey.. if they have no sense of humour... fuck em... Ugh. I mean Ignore them. 😶

I dont worry about it, I know its the site generating views. I am careful with my cursor but I believe for local people when they show up on my main page it triggers a view whether I was cursor happy or not. I havent gotten messages from people who I know my cursor has not gone near saying I viewed them.

Like you said its a simple solution for her to block here, but obviously she likes to nag..lol.
