I used to reply back to the ones I weren't interested in when I first joined the site saying thanks but no thanks and this seemed to give them false hope and I'd then end up having to block them completely further down the line, of course by this time I'd be accused of leading them on and they said if I weren't interested I shouldn't have replied at all in the first place even to say no thanks. So, yeah, we're damned if we do reply and damned if we don't
Virtual worlds or communities still differ too much from real life for most people to apply the usual social behaviour rules to. But I agree with you. Perhaps some people are not comfortable with saying no, or just saying thanks for the interest, because they may not want to encourage you to send another mail. I think its good to brace yourself for the possibility and realise it's not your bad.
I have some guys really freakin' me out sometimes, and I was called Icequeen for saying no once... that's the other side of the coin.
There's nothing but rude people on this world, these days. Some of the rudest, I've met, were on dating websites (and no, I won't be here anymore after this year is over). Some just flat out lied about everything about them. I know the last 3 dates I had did.
The only reason why I'm on a dating website because I tired of having to leave home, every damn weekend, to meet someone. Especially in this small town, where people talk about you and treat you like crap when they do see you. But I'm going to be moving in 6 months from now, so after December I'm through with dating sites.
yep to give a kind message or flower and ask for/expect a return response is
You where kind enough to send a message but to expect a return, thats like a salescall on your phone, how many times have listened to a complete phone pitch? Dude your selling and they ain't buying, thats the way it goes, move on.
Otherwise adopt this emoticon as your personal logo
I don't mind getting a flower from someone or a message, but some, after that, when they meet me, they aren't what they say they are. Too many people are deceiving, conniving, and lie all the time. That's just not my thing, you dig...I don't like that. I don't do that to them, so why do that to me.
maybe when they don't answer you back they are in a nice way trying to tell you no just because you e-mail or send someone a flowers does not mean they have to answer you back when they don't answer you back all it means is they are not the one for you.
what ever happen to doing something nice for someone without asking nor wanting anything in return.maybe you should try going to online today and start sending out flowers.that way they will see who you are,if they want to know you they will answer you back.if not you did something nice for someone,without asking nor getting anything back in return.
like the old saying goes you cannot make someone do something they do not want to do.maybe the was not being rude but telling you in a nice way no
