Taking profile off is the same as just not logging on?

I'm asking this question for a friend of mine because I didn't have the answer for her. She is dating a guy for a few months. They recently discussed that neither of them were dating other people and said since they are both not pursuing others, should take their profiles down. They are on 2 different types of sites. She is on chemistry so her profile isn't viewable by others but she receives matches. He is on match.

Since that conversation, he hasn't logged onto his profile however, it's still viewable on the site. He has been home and prior to this conversation used to log in all the time. So she thinks he is just not logging in and thinking it's the same as taking the profile down. Do you agree? She's afraid he might be deceiving her because on match you can still reply to winks and emails via your email address without having it show you as recently active. Is it possible this is just a contradiction of words and a visible, inactive profile is the same as taking it down or is there a chance the wool is being pulled over her eyes?
Hmm, on Chemistry you only see the matches that are sent to you and vice versa. So unless they were matched on Chemistry then she can't see his profile and he can't see her profile.

On Match you can reply to Winks and messages without logging on??? Not when I was on Match! On Match you can hide your profile if you no longer want to receive matches. As I recall you can hide your profile from particular people while still being available to others. So he could hide his profile from her while still leaving it up and receiving matches and communicating with others and she would think that it was gone.

But all that is not really what this thread is all about. In a successful relationship there is trust. It seem that the girl in question has a lack of trust in the guy. That lack of trust may be for a good reason or it may be because she is paranoid, I don't know which. But in any case this relationship is getting off to a very bad start.

From an accounting point of view with MAtch..him not logging on IS NOT the same as being inactive. He neds to be inactive. Actually with Match, the way the membership works is when you sign up for the 6 month paid and 6 month free you need to be active in those 6 months by replying to 5 people per month. He need to deactive his account or call customer service and have them deactive it and hold it for right now.

Match has it set up so you can easily think you've done everything to remove your profile when its really still visible. If I remember correctly you need to also "hide profile". Your friend needs to just plainly tell him its still visible. He probably doesn't even know that.

Also you can not hid your profile from particular people as one poster suggested. What you can do is "block:" a particular person. That simply means they won't be able to communicate with you - they can still see you.
