What is it with viewers who send an e mail or flower or messege with JUST: "hi"? That tells me NOTHING. AND it's pretty lame. I tend not to answer those. Does anyone else feel the same way? Why are men so lame---shouldn't they be more take charge?

I get those from the women as well. I disregard them usually. Maybe they want to draw your attention to their profile

well, in that case, then why don't they just come out and say what they want? whyare people so wishy-washy? they can't just be truthful and straight-forward and say what they feel and want---seems all people do is play games. come on...we ARE adults, afterall.
Maybe they're shy and don't really know what to say at first. Men aren't lame.

Not everyone will share the same attitude as you with regards to how you think people are so wishy washy. People use this site for many different reasons, genuine or not, some use it to wind others up in the forums, many are actively seeking a partner or just friends, or here for the forums. One cannot pass judgement on others when in real life we live in a world full of different characters, it is the same on here in terms of personality. You just have to bide your time, jump in the forums, many different folk there. If we were all the same it would be a very boring place to be. And this is a big adults playground.

Haven't you ever heard that you had me at "Hello"? Sometimes you just need to know the other person exist. We are all different and different approachs appeal to some and not all.
when someone sends a message thats just says hi - i send one back saying hi - it doesnt hurt to say hi back and it takes very little time - its usually just an ice breaker i think - so to me i dont really see a problem with it. just because we are online doesnt mean everyone loses their shyness. i think some are still not wanting to be rejected but still want to at least well say "hi" and see if they get a response
