i hate mails that just say "hi".. nothing else..

or mails that say love the profile but they havent actually looked at the profile.. laugh

or mails that have there email address attached..


Things to say..

Something along the lines of hey hows things.. seen your profile. had a look.. would love to know more. (then say a few things about yourself) at least then its a bit interesting and youve gone to the bother of actually writing a mail.. means there interested in getting to know you..

I would say something like ' you look nice, fancy a chat sometime'.

I would not say 'you look just like my ex wife, fancy a date'
