I agree that it's rude not to respond to a polite message. Actually, I would tend to respond, anyway, but that's me. Interesting that 3 times as many men expect a response. I wouldv'e thought it would be the other way around.

iamamm:

I think people need to wake up and get some bloody manners !!


I lost my "manners" after being here for a while...

Unless the person has made an effort to write an interesting message, I rarely reply unless their profile content is interesting. I rarely reply to "Hello how are you" or such ... why the heck would I be telling a complete stranger how I am? Also, very often, so as not to be rude, it used to take me a bout 5 messages to repeat, thank you blah blah blah but I'm not interested. A lot of guys take a reply as an interest EVEN when the contents of the message say thanks but no.

After reading a few threads from people complaining about not getting replies to their messages, I had another go at replying to all messages. Same thing again!! Many just do not take no for an answer!! It's like being in a bar and someone offering to buy you a drink and you saying no thanks but they insist and insist till you have to tell them to eff off!! It is tiresome!! So I've now gone back to not replying to everyone...

I know ... some people spoil it for the others!! mumbling

ninamil: The replies that I send always disappear with the profile of the senders
I am not the kind of person who becomes cynical and/or jaded easily--I really do try to see and absorb only the very top of everything. However, I totally understand what everyone is saying. Recently I have sent a few nice cards/flowers, etc... and it is difficult to know how and in what spirit they are received because the other person seems to disappear or just not write back. While it is certainly prudent to be a good steward of one's own integrity, by the same token it is equally important to not be so judgmental--(it seems like there are at least some members who take every attempt to reach out in friendship as a negative. Now, has anybody really ever gotten very far with that outlook?) (Incidentally, not to rattle my own cage or sound egotistical, I'm one heck of a nice guy and I always mean well, so if someone gets their back up because I'm trying to be a friend, that is THEIR problem, not mine.)

Can I ask why? To me if a person looks at my profile and decides not to contact me then they are not interested, therefore it doesnt make sense to contact them.


I reply to all messages other than those from obvious scammers, I receive very few anyway.

Hi Hugger
interesting indeed.....and it's getting worse !
most women are indifferent / think the males are rubbish
whilst most men are still positive and wanting replies ?
At this rate....might as well shut the site down ? rolling on the floor laughing

They might be shy dunno

Sometimes, if someone looks at my profile and I like the energy they carry, I have a look at theirs. And if I like what I read, I tell them!! Just because ... and why not??!!

Hello Eagle...
Agree with the anaolgy of bar-jerks
but is this diatribe your apology for not writing back to me 24 hours ago...or an explanation of how you ( and many other women ) see the site now ?
So what does someone have to do to interest you ?
Write you a Pullitzer prize piece of prose ?
There is only so much a normal guy is reasonably going to ask / write in a first message ....
and does your last line mean 'everyone' ( bar a remarkable exception ) or 'anyone' ( regardless )
- and yes to the lost manners and spoiling things for others...
because contrary to widely held belief..some men are different.....
and find it equally tiresome to be ignored....as the poll shows.
Time for women to make a decision maybe ?
Only forums
or stay online and return to talking ...
otherwise what is the point of being here ?
( General observations , of course )

Hi Chris
Not on this quote...but replied to anyway....
NO !....everyone exercises their own choices, obviously
I don't pass judgement ..only on the fact that females tend not to reply..and men tend to expect one.
It's purely my choice to chat to everyone
Sometimes it's just out of mischief
Scammers can be so much fun !!

Contrary to what some people think about my opinion in this forum..the fact that I send a thank you anyways is it is common courtesy...they took the time to view who you are...its the way I was brought up.

I thought yor profile looked familiar ... and I can't remember the content of your message which I didn't reply to because I erased it when I didn't reply to it!

The content of your post to me and the arrogant way in which you have worded it shows I'm an excellent judge of character "at first glance" when I chose not to reply to it.

And yes Andy!! Unless the huy is able to write me a pullitzer prize piece of prose, I'm not interested because we won't be on the same wavelength!! laugh

May I suggest you walk your talk!!!
