I've asked many men on this sight to questions about their interests; jobs; etc (non-intimate questions) to get to know them better, but they seldom answer them. They write back & talk about the weather or some other mundane subject. This makes me think they are NOT 'intimately' oriented & would not be a good partner, as relationships are based on good communication & sharing aspects of ones' inner thoughts & feelings -- or even what the latest footie scores are!

Just read your profile Kibaluv and my GUESS is that you probably made yourself sound so weird that many / most guys simply don't want to engage... you've heard of The Too Hard Basket ?

Or perhaps there are specialist niche geek, nerdy scifi dating sites

For myself personally, if I see a woman looking for a guy 30 years her junior I just ROTF and LMSO

But hey, best of luck in your search and if YOU are happy with yourself don't ever change that!

A good majority of them cannot even answer simple questions about the towns they live in. I have traveled all over the United States and have a fairly good memory. So I will ask questions about things they should know about. My favorite is the common store chain in the area they live in. The least you can do is google something like that for the answer if you do not know. But most people that live in a certain area know these places as well as they know the color of a stop sign.

Well, if they are not interested in me, then why do they bother to contact me to begin with? I NEVER contact men on here!
BTW, I'm NOT 'weird.' I'm a creative artist, which I guess YOU wouldn't know the first thing about.

Yes I have found that most of the men who have contacted me once you try to get to know them seem to ignore any questions not sure if it is a bloke thing or they just do not really wish to be open and get to know you.

True dat. One of the hallmarks of the scammer who suddenly emails you is a total ignoring of most questions you ask. Sometimes this is because they simply can't read or write a reply in English and are merely sending you letter #2, letter #3, letter#4, etc. from a script and hope you don't notice it (or google key sentences in their letter to see if it has been sent to other victims before). Of course sometimes it is just because the other person is a jerk.

Actually, when I first started here, I didn't ask questions of those I have communicated with. We engaged in conversations instead.

I think that's better. Less like an interview and more like a friendship.

thumbs up A lot of us seem to be "on autopilot". For instance, when I lived in the city, I could navigate anywhere, no problem. Anywhere. And quickly, too. I knew all the side routes, which would be busiest when, etc...what areas to avoid, where the prime parking was downtown and in the surrounding metro area. Boogered if I could tell anyone else how to do it....

Yeah, but I bet you remember the name of your town's high school, and if someone tells you they lived there you would expect them to know the name wouldn't you? Or perhaps remember the big fire that destroyed a big part of the town, or the day the plane crashed or 100 other things the scammers will pretend they didn't see you write about.
