Good Manners (53)
rohaan: No one is "obligated" to check out profiles, answer friendly notes, cards, flowers, whatever. That wasn't the question. The question was whether or not doing so was "polite". I am saying it is. As strongly as I feel about this situation, I, too, have opted to "not reply". I think the spirit of the question got misinterpreted or misunderstood somewhere. JMO
I copied and pasted HelloJoes question:Just wondering, is it Good Manners for people you send mail to, for them to at least look at your profile, even if they do not wish to have anything to do with you, i think it's polite just to look.
What he's asking is if someone sends others a mail would it be good manners for them to look at that particular profile.What would be good manners is to write them back and say no thank you.Doesn't mean that it would be bad manners not to view their profile.
I understood it very well.

Since he did not say "Doesn't that mean that it would be bad manners not to view their profile" I did not assume it. (I do not believe that choosing to not do something equals bad manners. i.e. if I choose to donate money to a homeless person, I am being polite. Not choosing to does not mean I have bad manners. One does not need to make the two go hand in hand).

You are asking if it is bad manners not to view someone's profile of someone who has viewed my profile? No, it is not bad manners.
I should leave my response right there, but I will explain:
1) I receive views from 19 year olds. I'm not interested in viewing their profile.
2) I receive views from men in countries that are so far away, that a LDR is not possible. Therefore, I am not interested in viewing their profile.
3) Many, many men who view my profile are scammers. I can tell this most of the time straight away from their photogragh. I will not view their profile.
Am I practicing bad manners? No.
Does it matter to me personally that the above-mentioned men who have viewed my profile might find it rude of me that I did not in turn view their profile? That would be an issue they would need to resolve within themselves...

May I add one last comment. How I choose to spend my free time on CS is my own personal choice. If anyone finds that rude, again, that is their own personal issue that they will need to resolve within themselves. It is not my place to run behind everyone trying to make sure they don't get their feelings hurt.

How do you know they haven't checked your profile?
They may have had a sneaky look...or is that bad manners too?

I got a message the other day from someone on this site and I replied back to them but I also didn't view their profile.I guess cause I didn't review their profile I wasn't using good manners.
