Rude not to reply to messages? (35)
i agree with ya.....as it cost nothing to be polite...and i am sure their mothers would be appalled to think they had no manners to reply....

How about you get a dozen messages. Cannot reply to them all....

americanindublin: Me, I think so, yes.
If someone takes the time to write you, the very least you can do is reply and tell them you're not interested.
It's just rude not to...

I don't know that it's rude to not respond - Some people here get literally hundreds of messages each week. Seems like responding to each and every one would take waaaay too much time.
Having said that, I will admit that I, personally, try to respond to each message I get - Even if it's only to tell a scammer that they've been reported to the moderators. Fortunately, even before I met my wife here, a loaded mailbox wasn't something I really had to worry about too much...

Last time I check a dozen was just 12...
Are you telling me that curiosity wouldn't get the better of you? You wouldn't go and check out the profile of the sender?
If somebody has enough time to check out the sender's profile they have enough time to say "thanks, not interested"
That's just my opinion...

Depends entirely on the message sent, but in general if someone has clearly taken the time to look at my profile and then write a note, I respond.
If they continue writing after I have said thank you but no thank you, I just delete the subsequent messages.

Should we also post a reply in every thread?
Its just rude not to acknowledge the poster that took so much thought and time to start it
Reply to the nice emails- the rude ones can vaporize!

I started out answering all messages and responding to flowers sent... but found that it actually causes more problems then ignoring them does. When I would send a polite reply explaining why I wasn't interested, or why I thought we were not a good match... I would often get an abusive or accusatory response, when I ignore them I never hear back.
If I see someone has really put some time into the message then I do respond, but if it's a single line... you're hot, lets hook up, I'm the guy for you, etc. I delete.

I personally don't think one needs to give a reason.
If a guy or girl can't take rejection then they shouldn't ask.

I don’t reply to every message. And I don’t consider it rude at all.
I also sometimes choose to not answer my phone and let the answering machine pick up. I sometimes choose to not answer my front door when people knock. I often choose not to answer postal mail that I receive in my mail box outside.
Just because someone chooses to solicit me for time, attention, dates, money, whatever… it does not obligate me to reply.
If I spent my life sitting down and replying to each and every piece of correspondence that ever came my way,
I would have no time to live my life.

I have become a pro at rejection!

I once told them to come on in..I worship satan and am ready for a human sacrafice..
You should have seen the look on his face!

Your just plain naughty!! ------ This thread is Archived ------
How the hell did they work out you were miserable without even replying????
Only joking, i wouldn't worry...there's more to life than CS and waiting for mail from people who would probably use your head as a table ornament on Halloween.
Personally, i would go out in Dublin while you are there, and make the most of it before you return to the states.
After all, the Irish are a friendly crowd, especially if your buying the next round.Next stop friday night and "Temple Bar" for you lad.
Oh, and cue up in the main street for a cab after, there friendly in the cues too.
Meantime, don't worry and relax....life's too short to be annoyed by these things.
