Have some dignity

If you meet someone online and communicate with them for a week, a month, or however long, an emotional investment has been made, at least on one party's part. It's only natural that expectations will follow. If subsequently you lose interest or decide there's no basis for a lasting relationship, have the kahunas to say so. Don't just slink away without so much as a fare-the-well. There's nothing quite so cowardly. Is that how you want to be remembered?

It happens to everyone.


I'd guess ghosting is more common than saying good bye online.

NatureGal. Welcome, ~I havenot seen you before. I concur with the other bloggers on this one.. That's the way it goes.

It's rude, it is abit heartless, it is gutless... but that's online dating. hug It has happened to most of us.

Hmmm, have you ever replied with a polite: "No, thanks, not interested" and got abusive mails? Think that is a reason why a lot of people try to avoid confrontations.

I simply would think someone has found another member they are more interested in. I wouldn't find it great if it was someone I had met several times in person, but it wouldn't bother me much if it was only mails.

I found it more annoying if it didn't work out for them & they are trying their luck again months later.

Actually, I have given several polite "no thank you's" and only gotten one angry reply. I think the guy was drunk. Anyway, I guess I just needed to vent. I know it happens all the time. I suppose I'm old-fashioned but the lack of honor in how people treat one another these days bothers me.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

I find it very disrespectful I have been there more time than I hoped for even tmhavevthem wanting to come back too this nerve.

But what I do isignored I don't bother wasting my time to block it feels good to let them know that am ignoring them.

I think you need a thick skin for internet dating.

I didn't have it at the start, but it helps if you get one. Sad but true. wave
