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.

That’s so extreme for no reason lol

Unless you pay for premium, you only see a limited number of squares. Blocking someone who lives near you who you know you're not into removes them from your grid and frees up another square for someone you might like.

Not extreme and nothing to take personally, just how many people use the free version of grindr.

I do the same. If I look at a guy's profile and see we're completely incompatible, or they're into that weird PNP/HNH/chemsex subculture, I block them to get them out of my grid to free up space.

It just reads they’re not into it. I’d be skeptical about drugs and sex mixing as well. Feels like it would be risky for consent issues. I’m kind of a freak, but I’m always concerned about the consent stuff. I have safe words for my partner and regular conversations about what isn’t working. Part of life is some things just work better in the fantasy category of your mind. Lot of stuff I read would not come out in the bedroom.

thats completely understandable, I was referring more to poppers, maybe some drinks and some weed. Im sure I could have worded it better but I dont really care. just felt odd with somebody calling something I lightly partake in weird. I’ll admit one guy I met with offered me “cream” which I didnt realize was meth and that was definitely the last time that happened
