This is a site for dating for me, maybe not all of you but it is for me. I dont think I am ugly. I am certain I have a lot to offer but for what ever reason not one and i mean no one seems to have to courtesy to even return my e-mails.
I am not lude nor a am I crass and yet courtesy seems to be lacking here among the many in my opinion.
I am here becauase i dont do bars, 1 minute dating and all the other fads.
I am in good shape and therfore should not die too soon.
I am not a looser doing drugs, commiting crimes or otherwise being a lamer.
I believe in caring for others and I am not a 'sickening sweet man".
If women would give me a chance they might find I could be a real catch.
OK. I have had my pitty party and now I feel better.

Hi Welcome to the forums
I'm sure there's many of us that have felt that way at one time or another. You may want to hang out a bit more in the forums, this way people can get to know you better.
I don't know why either. The only thing on your profile I see as a 'red flag' is your age for daing which is 18-45. Why don't you narrow it down to a viable number like 35-55. Women your age might not even like to give the time of day to someone who will date anyone including little 18 year olds. Ten years younger or older will give you a better range of women with whom you might have more in common. Writing in the Forums is another good way to get to know someone before writing them. Good luck!
This has happened to me also, at first I was annoyed and then had to just let it go and put it down to experience, after all would you want to be involved with someone who was rude enough to ignore an email?
Join in here and get to know people and let people get to know you.
I do not answer e-mailes from men in their 20 and 30 as I cannot see why they would even e-mail me and most of them are out of the country and are giving phone numbers or other ways of beening contacted. If you e-mail on here why then want me to reply on a different site.

Hello and Welcome to the forums
What a way to introduce yourself
There is no such rule as to returning a "courtesy" email to a stranger. I do not reply to junk mail. Do you?
It depends on what you are saying in your emails and how many times we have heard it before. I used to be sensitive and respond to each and every email, even if it was only to say, "not interested, hope you find what you are looking for". Some would get extremely ugly and tell me how horrid looking I was etc etc... It's funny, because why did they contact me in the first place? I've gotten through that hurdle, and with no explanation necessary, I either delete and forget, or I say "meet US in the forums" and that does it.
So, with all of that being said, why don't you stick around the forums, pick topics that interest you and join in on the conversations or silliness and allow people to get to know you. It makes it much easier to email someone and tell them that they had a great post, and start a conversation from a point, instead of from nowhere. There ARE a lot of terrific men and women on here, I'm certain you'll be fine...
or keep ranting, and we'll join your pity party, either way, doesn't matter whatever you decide...
I have no idea what the problem is. I have no advice. I just have to say something in every thread!!
I never initiate contacts...so I don't have to deal with rejection. If anyone is going to reject someone, it will be me. I have been on CS for two years, hence Shipoker55. I am now 57 and have never sent an e-mail of introduction. That is why god created profiles. If someone reads it and are interested, they will respond. The only time I read profiles is in deciding how to answer when someone contacts me. If a person under forty contacts me, automatically gets a block
SO! If rejection is your thing, keep contacting people.
highplains: and...well...I can't help but wonder if you ( guys and gals ) are only fishing for STUNNERS...????
Guys - maybe (they do learn the hard way though, I believe), girls - I doubt it... Some do of course, but most I'm sure are looking for someone who could really understand and love them in the first place.

Now that's a rather dreadful stance. And coming from a man, even more so.
prncss4someone: It depends on what you are saying in your emails and how many times we have heard it before.
Right on!!
To the original poster... May I suggest telling more about yourself on your profile (sort of like writing a motivation letter, LOL), and instead of describing the ideal woman you want, putting there what you are ready to give her.... Also, it's not absolutely necessary to give an evaluation of your looks - there are photos posted (thank goodness) so ladies can see for themselves!
shipoker55: ***Now that's a rather dreadful stance. And coming from a man, even more so. Why more so from a man than a woman???
Because men are supposed to show active interest, "court" a lady etc.... A man that says he'll just sit back and put his feet on the table and any ladies can approach him if they want..... Just seems a bit weird.

Keep your head up brother....don't give up, and tweak your approach a bit. Have some patience and don't expect too much from a free dating site.
