What do I do about guys I'm not interested in that keep messaging me on Facebook

I keep getting guy after guy after guy that friends me on Facebook and starts sending me tons of messages and flirt with me. Some keep doing it after I tell them not to or I'm not interested in them. One message me everyday and hit on me and I told him not to the billion times. What are their problems? Why are they keep doing that? And some of them leave me alone after I tell them I'm not interested in them but get mad. Like one didn't say the thing to me after that. And I go on there to talk to the best friend that live a thousand miles away and I can't text her or anything because she don't have a phone and she never use her e-mail. And there a guy at my work I like and I been making progress with him.
How do I get these random guys on Facebook that kept messaging me and stuff to leave me alone? They are getting extremely irritating and stressing me out.

hi, why don't you just remove them from your friends list so they won't be able to message you anymore?

Yeah, that and, don't you have to AGREE to have them as friends before they can message you?

I don't even do FB anymore because when I did, my gf in Va. 'friended me' and then everyone from HS asked to be my friend, and I 'agreed' with a lot of them cause I didn't want to be rude............until I realized after awhile why I had nothing to do with them in the past....lol

Goodbye facebook

Look into the help section on how to fix your security settings- you can set it so people can only find you in certain ways. Or, as someone said, people have to friend you first [and you have to agree to the request] or only friends of friends can message you.

This is a llittle confusing though:

Do you want them to stop messaging you or not?

Well I go on Facebook because it's the only way I can keep in touch with my friend. I said that in the question. And you don't have to have people as friends to message them.

Then I defer to Josie...she knows more about it than I do.

Good luck!

yes I do want them to stop messaging me but they make me feel like I'm suppose to give them the time of day.

Do they? How? Time to stop allowing that. Why don't you just block them?

I used to have this problem a lot and I felt bad blocking people, like it was mean or something. But eventually, if you're really not interested, I would suggest just blocking them. Also, I wouldn't add guys unless you know them personally, because a lot of guys out there in cyberspace are just looking for girls to hit on, so adding guys you don't know will often result in this situation.

Change your privacy settings so that you can't get messages from people who aren't on your friend list - and then don't accept friend requests from people you don't actually know. Voila! Problem solved

delete them or block them...quick, clean, and easy.

From a Man's point of view here. Guys don't generally keep texting/messaging unless they believe there is hope. You must be keeping the door open for them if they keep messaging you. Generally if you tell someone to leave you alone they do unless you indicate otherwise.

Also its facebook not real life. Ignore the messages, delete them and they'll get the pint.

You can remove them from your friend list, set your privacy level to only when you allow or/and you can block them. If all of this does not help you then FB WILL remove them from having any available contact with you if you report them as abuse. It worked for me. It seems a lot of these guys are foreigners that want to lie and get with you because they want something anyway so don't be too concerned for their feelings.

REmove them from your friends list and block them.

I actually just deactivated min almost a week ago over the unwznted messages and somehpw guys were calling my cellphone through fb. To me it was creepy

That's an easy one: block them.

And be careful what information you put on there.

How? by getting mad when I tell them I'm not interested. And I actually have a boyfriend now. And I tell them that and they ignore it and continue to flirt. And when I told one of them I had a boyfriend and I ask him to stop and he asked why. Didn't I just tell him why? And yes I did block the ones that keep flirting after I told them to stop. And it's disrespectful to flirt with someone that's in a relationship.

OMG, I can see you got the same ones. Yes they are a bunch of guys from the middle east and India. Which I find funny because I never had any friends from the middle east, added anyone from those area or really had an interest in Arab and Indians guys. Maybe it have to do with my name IDK. And yes I blocked the ones that was the pain in the butt.

I know it's tempting to answer emails because it seems rude or too passive to just ignore them. The truth is that no matter what your response is, to many people ANY response as a sign of interest. So don't even open the messages and delete immediately. You're never obligated to respond to unwanted emails or messages.

Men (and now more women) know this, and while I don't think it's the best way to go about breaking up with someone, it one reason why people some people we've been dating suddenly "disappear" from contact. The truth is that any response, and actually even reading the message, gives the other person a sense of hope.

As females we're socialized to be polite and put other people's feelings before our own, so it's harder for us to just ignore messages and emails. But you have to. One response of "do not message me anymore" sometimes works, but in my experience that can even be taken as encouragement. So after that there should be nothing but radio silence on your part. It may take a while, but if you don't respond (even better to delete the message without reading) eventually they will stop.

I feel bad to say this but..maybe you also like the attention. so many people here suggesting that you remove or block the guy but you dint answer to that reply.
I have facebook, and facebook have this privacy setting and you can choose to remove them and block them and puff.. they will gone forever..just because you remove all those guy doesnt mean you cannot keep in contact with your friend that live thhousand miles away.
