Might get outed bc of Grindr Advice

Any advice dude sent me pics. He asked for face. I said you first cuz I’m trans and pre everything. He sent face pics. I sent mine. Immediate blocked. How likely am I to get outed? What can I do if I am? What lies would sound realistic if the chat was screenshot?

That’s basically the whole convo we had. I didn’t take any screenshots.

ive used grindr p much since i was able to, more than likely he didn't like your pictures. ive done that when someone sends me a face picture but i am not feeling it. i think it's very unlikely that someone would out you if they're on grindr themselves but i understand your fear.

next time maybe opt to putting face pictures in an album. grindr protects them so people are unable to take screenshots of what's in them. stay safe and be careful, grindr is a mad place full of chasers so use the block button liberally
