Despite the fact that the very first words on my profile read "Just friends, please," I just got an email from some silly Welsh woman (supposedly; "she" could just as easily be a catfish, for all I know!) who was spewing some complete rubbish about how she was "seeking the deepest commitment with a man."

(Is that what "Just friends, please" means to some people these days?) ??

If you can't be bothered reading someone's profile, why bother emailing them? You're just wasting your time and, worse, probably annoying the Hell out of them! ??

I haven't the faintest clue who Jac is. Their handle is "sweetnlonelygur," and they're from Swansee Wales...or at least that's what they said on their profile, anyway.??

(For all I know, this "sweetnlonelygur" could be a catfish for a morbidly obese, middle-aged, crossdressing shoe salesman from Canberra, Australia!)??

I just don't get why someone would send me an email full of romantic claptrap (how they're "looking for the deepest commitment with a man," etc) when the first three words on my profile are literally, "Just friends, please!"

This why I stopped hanging around MatchDoctor!

No people don't read profiles.

Sounds like you had a '"form letter" from a "Romance Scammer", we all have had them. Scammers are on every site. And every time a site closes down, we get an influx here.
The longer you are here, the easier they are to spot.

Block, and report and good luck to you

Info in your profile has been thought of BUT most women don't read. "Tell me something about yourself...." is the trite response (if you can call it that)

Most don't.

Some men just send message to many women hoping one will answer.

Well, here I am again, having not logged in for a couple of years, and very amused to find so many interesting comments on this thread.

So people don't read, they just look at the pictures, huh? Typical "meat market" mentality, which was exactly why I effectively dropped out of MatchDoctor several years before it went belly up.??

Well, that and my psycho stalker, of course!??
