I read someone's recent post saying that men need to step it up and start pursuing the women on here. I guess some women like that. Cool! I get it.
What I don't understand is how someone on here can send YOU a msg, you respond respectfully and appropriately (being yourself) and they don't even get back to you. Are people here just to play games?!? Is anyone actually trying to get to know someone or just pass the time????

clear36: Huh!! Well I guess my bad luck is continuing........
Sometimes a person will come on line, read your e-mail but not have a lot of time to reply so they will make a few posts and get off. They will save your e-mail for later when they have more time to reply Give it time.
I'm sorry but I think it's a numbers game, that's all. You have to say hi to loads of people at a party before you bump into someone who is going to turn into a real friend... and often you go to a party and you don't meet anyone.
It's the same here. You have loads of conversations that go nowhere... loads of people just disappear in the middle of what you thought was a conversation...
You just have to shrug and move on. The more people you chat to, the more chance you have of meeting a keeper!

If you get a msg address, or yahoo address in your first mail, that is a blatant sign of a scammer.

Just answer the mails! Only takes a couple of minutes
I'm so bad at replying to mails. I get them once in a while and have an exchange, then I get another mail and usually forget to reply. I even do that with my pen pals---I should get back to them.
Sorry to those of you btw I'll get back to some of your mails, but you did say when I have time
