Why Women Don't Reply!
Sadly many women like myself have learnt not to reply if we do not want to take it any further on any level. I think that should be a person's prerogative to choose. However, sadly, by not replying, I then receive a second angry email stating how rude I am, so from my own perspective, I thought I would set the record straight.I receive many emails but many of them are outside my remit i.e. especially from younger men or separated guys or chaps who have children living at home etc. Now if I write politely saying I am not interested it seems to have the reverse effect of closing the door. Instead I am often bombarded with arguments why I should consider younger men, many of a suggestive nature, and I ask myself why did I bother to reply in the first place. Many men take it personally and then I have to block them!
So, as polite as I am by nature, I have chosen to exercise my right not to reply and I feel sure I am not alone in choosing this way...

Welcome to the blogs
Yup, I think you need not reply to them emails if you don’t feel like it
I do answer most and wish them luck in their search, just in case one is genuine ha ha
It’s like a sales person expecting a call back when you are not interested in the product. If I haven’t interacted with a person here on the blogs, I equate those emails to “cold calls”.
So so cold
Then it dawned on me that this place really is treated like a picture book, so I put some text on my main picture. Guess what, it has cut way down on the unwanted emails.
My picture says:
Denver Colorado only
This isn't a picture book
READ PROFILES!!
You might want to put your key qualifiers right on your picture.
Many make their choices based upon past experiences
I think this topic went over like a lead balloon.
People discuss the pros and cons of building a wall to keep people out. I believe the wall has already been in place for the past 20 years or more. A wall that is not so easily seen that rests between male and female relationships. Along with cultural misunderstandings. The right of choice is with us for a time but, one day by sitting on the fence of life and the desires of the heart the choices will be made for us. We may not like what we get stuck with.
When they then try to respond they can't.
I do tend to reply and have also found it opens the way for more contact, not sure how to resolve it other than to state why you’re not interested, and, having satisfied the bounds of courtesy, ignore the rest that follow.
I just take it the way it comes...
If it comes in the wrong way...
Well escape plan always ready...
