If you have ever been on a dating app, then you have definitely fallen victim to the forbidden unsolicited photo. That’s right– I’m talking about when you click on text from a new guy and come face-to-face with a nasty pickle.
For some women, this results in an immediate “block.” And that is totally understandable. For others, it is just plain hilarious, and they share the cringy experience with all of their friends– which is also a completely relatable reaction.
Afterward, though, what are you supposed to do? Block yet another person? Tell a guy off again for wasting your time?
You can do either of those things. Or, you could respond with a hilarious comeback that sends them reeling. Doesn’t that sound like much more fun, anyway?
Recently, women online also shared their most savage clapbacks for unsolicited photos. So, if you are navigating the dating scene right now, you will definitely want to take notes.
Make Them Question Their Manhood
“Act really concerned by replying with a hyperlink to WebMD of an STI.” –Bohan-
“I used to ask if they were alright or why it looked like that. ‘Oh my gosh, are you okay?’ or ‘Why does it look like that?’ Stopped a lot of them real fast. And yes, it is mean, but they showed me their [pickle] without consent– so all politeness was gone at that point.” –Kelsogreg93

Get Creative With Photoshop

Hit Them With The Consequences Of Their Own Actions

“One of my best friends got an unsolicited pic from a guy on Bumble who she just started talking to. She found him on Facebook and found out that his dad was actually a preacher. She then took a screenshot of their conversations, sent it to his dad, and he took care of it.” –Melodic_road_22
“Turn it into an NFT and share the link with him. If he doesn’t want to get caught, he will need to buy it from you.” –According-bag2207
