I received an email from the owners of a site on which I am no longer a member, in fact was member for shortest time. Only had been curious so of-course had to pay to enter. A weird site where all the men HAVE to specify their annual income PLUS their net worth, and they need to be 'a millionaire' or 'gazillionaire'. Turns out my profile is still there and I was notified that the person below has sent me an email.
Now it is quite obvious what this fellow is after. Probably married, too. What would you do? Would you be curious as to what he has written in the email he has sent?(it is there, flashing, but I can't open it). Or should I delete it.
Here is his profile:
"Describing Myself: I am seeking a friendly, fun and caring long term lover. Managing a large business is stressful and I want someone to relax with and spoil. I love travelling, dining out, golf, movies/theatre, good wine and theatre. I am a genuine nice guy who my friends and staff adore, VERY generous and not very demanding. My job has very flexible hours so I can play day or night. I live in Melbourne but prefer a regular long term lover in Adelaide as I am working there from Tuesday to Friday indefinitely. As my profile says I seek a fun and passionate lover and a great friend, hopefully on a long term basis. Because of my senior position I will not put up a photo for everyone to see but very happy to send one immediately to anyone interested Go on take a chance, dare you. "
Oh,the site tells me he has placed me on his 'Hot List'
What have you got to lose by replying to him? Nothing, apart from a bit of your time, as I'm sure you're wise enough to keep your eyes open and avoid getting hurt.
Depends on what you want. I think you know what he wants. Relationships should be all about honesty.Since the dawn of time there have been many different kinds of realtionships. If you want a long term realtionship of a permanent nature then just forget the email. However if you are curious to see where such a relationship will go, then go for it.
I can play day or night. I live in Melbourne but prefer a regular long term lover in Adelaide as I am working there from Tuesday to Friday indefinitely. excuse me whats happening with weekends or they r reserved for kids and wife doing family activities

OK. Your opinions please. A bit of fun.
I find it sooo disappointing coming from you...i mean you don't come across as the naive tipe... if you have to subscribe again in order to open the email...then it's definitely a "scam" so to speak, from the dating site's side to cash in some more golden nuggets. I was on this one "subscribed" site for like a couple months and till date has 89 messages unread. They have in fact appointed women who keep in contact with all the men on the site in order to retain their subsribtions....now how sick is that. People playing with others emotions...

Money, remember? Can't recall exact minimum, but...do I want to pay just so I can open up his email and read whatever gaff he has written? I wouldn't even have to reply though.

Some sites r making tricks like that just to pay...

I agree with you, X. Don't worry. I am aware that if they want to get people to re subscribe, these sites have to try and entice.
Having said this, I did catch up with 2 men from that site. One was local, and quite ok over a coffee, and we had real estate investment interest in common. It was good because straight after I went shopping at the seaside suburb!
The other one I caught up with in Melbourne when I went to visit my brother. again, I caught up for a coffee. He was the quantum physicist I have spoke about. Didn't want to have anything further with him, but I do miss the intellect chats we had online.
Anyway, fear not. I do find these things fascinating.

Hi potsy,
Thanks. No, I am not curious about where such a relationship would go. It is clear. Though I have a friend soon to return from Greece. She might be interested.
It is not the first such to come my way, or for most us women. I have already known a man that would have been very happy to have me as a long term lover, while his wife lived overseas, and he remained interstate. We had been friends. When he spoke in those terms, I was disgusted and ditched our long term friendship.

Thanks for filling us in on your "brief" dating history...i'm sure all appreciate it... I wonder if any women OR man for that matter can get along with a quantum physicist?...except another quantum physicist perhaps.... Good to know your still objective and open minded.

Actually, X, I had a local guy from this site offer me this discreet long term lover bit, with all the 'spoiling' that comes with it. I told him to take a hike. So you see, it's not just that 'other' site.

He was extremely arrogant. That's what put me off, and was very obvious from the coffee meet.
venere08: Yeppers. Pity I am not a different person.
I would ask for a bank account in my name with a large sum deposited before any 'transactions' took place. My name on the title of a brand new apartment overlooking some harbour...
