Messaged 7 girls in 2 weeks, no response from any...
Posted : 29 Jan, 2010 08:59 PM

What's the deal with a girl not responding at all to messages I've sent them? Is this the way it is if they aren't interested in you? All of my messages sent have been confirmed read. No winks were sent, just messages. I would mention their faith, common interests, and that I would love to get to know them better. I also would ask for a response if they really weren't interested, but still no response.



So, what am I doing wrong, or did I run into a rough patch of luck? I've tried instant messaging a few of them on here, and they closed the window w/o a response as well. What am I supposed to say to a girl when I want to get to know her better? Suggestions please... thanks!

Hi BJ

Sorry to hear about your lack of response. I can assure you -- not all the ladies on this site are that way.



My suggestions are to be patient, keep on trying, and check out the Forum (which you've done, obviously) and also Live Chat.



When you contact a lady it is a good idea to be short and specific. Mention something you have in common. Ask a question that will get more than a "Yes" or "No" response.



I also looked at your profile, and I know if I was in your age range it would help to know a bit more about you and your interests and goals other than something like "if you want to know more talk to me". That doesn't give a girl very much to go on.

Hang in there - dont' give up! Good luck!

Just a suggestion...don't rely on IMs to contact girls. I get more "missed instant message" notifications than I get actual IMs.

Fill out your profile a little bit, to give girls more info on which to form an opinion. And keep in mind that this site doesn't have a "last login date" on it, so some of those girls may not have been on for weeks or months. You can check the "sent messages" tab to see if your message was ever read...that should help some.

Good luck!

Opps...just re-read your post, and saw that your messages were confirmed as read. Since that's the case, try a very different approach in your messages.

I 1st month was really bad here.A good guy waits for the right girl to come along.I have bugged a few ladies until they responded.

Most of the time I write for about a week or 2 then things break apart.The right lady will come along.Dennis

It probably is frustrating to you because your in a part of

your life where others are not. I would just keep the hope

and keep trying, Maybe you need to just say on asking for

a response to just state that you are searching for friends as well as a match you never know how it starts and ends up.

If you instant message I would recommend that you email them to see if they would like to chat. Just dont rush in the door when you need to knock first to see if anyone is going to be interested enough to answer the door. Just some small piece of advice... (email me if this helps anytime ok?) I dont mind being a friend but dont just start with me start working on other as to find friendships as well. You need to SHINE and keep it OPEN to everyone on here....GivenLife

2 weeks isn't a long time on here. Just guessing here, but doubt you are doing anything wrong(well except: don't ask for a response even if they aren't interested), its just how this online thing works.



Don't be discouraged by this, just shrug it off and keep writing whoever you want.

What you are discussing is basically the structure of the site. Just continue to come here. You will become less of a stranger. Keep looking for new users. Many times you will get favorable responses to women who have not yet posted their pictures. They are usually eager to respond because they are less likely contacted because they have not pic yet. You actually might aide in lifting their self-esteem :) Remember too, without pics you get to see more of the heart of the women. If she is gorgeous with a lot of flaws in her profile, you may be more willing to overlook them. If she has no pic, but her profile is gorgeous, you just may be in luck.



Praying for positive response.
