Missy55 View Profile History	A NOTE TO YOU GUYS Posted : 14 May, 2010 01:04 PM When I see a guy that I like the look of, I drop him a quick line saying hello.. but then nothing.. It would be nice if you guys would reply and say thank you but no thanks... It isn't easy to try and find the one for you and when there isn't any feedback then over time its a bit difficult on the old ego.. lol.. I know it can be the other way round, but if everyone sent a quick reply of some sort, that would be great... Think of it as what would Jesus do... God bless you all.. xx Post Reply

View Profile History	A NOTE TO YOU GUYS Posted : 15 May, 2010 10:00 AM why does there have to be an 'and then what?' eventually everything comes to an end. talking and getting to know people really doesn't have to be so down right serious. I wonder how much time people have saved themselves from wasting by not talking to people they didn't think where worth it. Post Reply
Tulip89 View Profile History	A NOTE TO YOU GUYS Posted : 15 May, 2010 10:16 AM I try to respond to messages, but I have on my profile that I don't want to relocate and that since I'm moving out of state at the end of the month, I'm only here for the forums. It's frustrating when a girl with a line and a half long profile from Delaware sends me a message that says, "Hey I like your profile." All the stuff that girls don't like getting in messages, they send to guys, and then get mad when we either don't respond, or only respond with, "Thanks." Post Reply
DontHitThatMark View Profile History	A NOTE TO YOU GUYS Posted : 15 May, 2010 11:59 AM Aaaand it all goes both ways. I think there's are just a lot of "busy" people on here or something. I tried real hard to always at least reply if not have a small conversation with people. You wouldn't ignore them in real life...it's only polite. But yeah, I gave up sending people messages, that's how rare it was to get a reply. I'm not single anymore thanks to this site though...so...don't give up. :peace::peace: Disclaimer: I am also not a female...and I do realize it's a lot harder for the girls. I've never gotten a email from a creepy girl, but I've had a lot of "creepy guy" emails read to me by women on this site...so...I know it's harder...there's some freaky guys on here:ribbit::boxing:.

nepb47 View Profile History	A NOTE TO YOU GUYS Posted : 18 May, 2010 07:40 PM So if you don't send messages what do you think is the most effective way to introduce yourself? NEPB Post Reply
View Profile History	A NOTE TO YOU GUYS Posted : 18 May, 2010 09:19 PM Loony has his point. If the conversation doesn't stimulate more conversation there isn't much to talk about. It gets boring, stale, and nonproductive. It also says to some, "Hey, I just looked at your profile picture and your age, hi." On the other hand though, you could say hello back and that gives the other person the green light to say, "Hey, I'm cool with chatting, tell me about you." It doesn't work as often as people think though, which is why so many people run into blanks on online dating websites like this one. They immediately assume creeper half the time, and miss out on possibly meeting and talking to a genuinely nice person. Some good advice Missy 55? Pick out a few things you and the other person have in common on the profile, and throw them into the first message to try and break the ice. It lets them know that you took out the time to read their profile, that you genuinely do care about trying to get to know that person, and it gives you two something to connect on right off the bat, and that create a stimulating conversation that keeps going and going and going. :) Post Reply
