Posted: 10/14/2004 10:08:11 PM | | I've only been getting alot because i've been sending out alot too. But i do have to admit that its free and i got more out of this site in a few months then i did in over a year at yahoo personals and they charge. Yahoo to plentyoffish is like 1/100 ratio. You just cant beat the price on plentyoffish. I guess if u really want messages, have a woman seeking woman profile as well. Do i have one? No way, um. Just give it a chance dude. | |

There have only been a few who havent emailed me back when I emailed them but its amusing . They usually are the ones in the forums snivelling that they just want freinds and that no one ever emails em | |

Sounds a lot like someone who isn't looking so why be on a site at all? Who ever said it was going to be easy or there was no work to it?
I know if I was with someone no site would be more important than focusing on the here and now. But that's me!
As for the e-mails I completely understand what your saying but it's really no different in the real world is it? Now I can't speak for you but I myself don't typically walk around being rude, nor would I fail to respond in kind to any e-mail I recieved no matter how many there was. It makes no differance if I'm interested in them or not it's only polite to respond back with something. Otherwise it would be the same as slamming the door in the face of someone walking out of a convience store. Plus by failing to respond it makes a person look contridictory to their profile. Unless they clear state that: "they are a rude person don't bother e-mailing me I won't answer."
One finial comment about the e-mails if a person doesn't like getting hundreds why not just drop off the site, that's what any decent thinking person would do?
As for your lack of a picture: You know one does not have to post a glamor shot? If you so concerned about someone just judging you by your looks one can always dress down (us unattractive people can't dress up but a pretty person can always dress down). Then you will know the guy who comes calling is looking at something other than your looks. You win and he wins because he's getting a pretty person than he realised and a person with a good heart. You win because you know he's attracted more to your personality. | |

So true your a wise lady! :)
I was just being honest with you so please don't think I was saying any of that on a personal level.
Nothing wrong with wanting to look your best I wasn't saying take a picture of yourself when you first wake up in the morning. Just an average picture taken on an average day with very casual attire.
As for my E-mails: I send one out only if I get no response I don't send another. If they should decide to send me one back several weeks later then I would politely say no thank you. Now if they do reply to my first e-mail and show some decency and straight forward with me that they are not interested in a date but don't mind talking then I'll corespond with them apporpiately but if should they ever change their mind about the dating thing they might as well seek someone else. I'll remain friendly with them but once your off my list your off for good. A mutually feeling felt right away has dramatic chanses of success than any game play afterwards could ever hope to match. | |

Posted: 10/17/2004 2:27:57 PM | | Well Im not taking it personally. I do not play games, I am strait forward. I recieved such a high volume of mail though, we r talking 6 pages of it a day, I had no time not patience to read any of it, so I was deleting without reading half the time | |

That's the easiest way to miss Mr. perfect. The delete button is a blessing as well as a curse... You might want to keep that in mind.
Glad to hear you were not offened it was not my intention to do so if it was taken that way. I have had much more success in understanding the problems here than on any other site. All those other sites did not have such a forum to discuss such things. So, with the other sites I like many other fella's who got nothing but deleted e-mails wasn't teaching us a thing. We were left to assume that we were either to ugly or we said something wrong... That's my issue with the delete thing.

Posted: 10/17/2004 6:54:04 PM | I've had mixed results. I have 'made contact' with 3 women. One mailed me back, gave me her IM then disappeared. Another gave me her IM, but I haven't gotten any response on her messanger yet (I have sent one or two), but then, it took her a while to write me back too. She might just be shy. The last I have sent a couple notes on here back and forth with. She wrote me first, but I had put her in my favorites. I had also gotten one message from someone who apparently deleted her profile right after sending me a note.
I haven't sent very many notes, so I think the results haven't been bad. I have been on various singles sites for several years now, so I think I have kind of developed a sense for what kind of people are more likely to respond. Some people sign up for sites like this for an ego boost, or just for fun. And those people generally won't respond. | |

Posted: 10/18/2004 12:55:34 PM | personally, I've gotten zero responses to the messages I've sent out - but at least I get "Read Deleted" rather than "Unread Deleted" more often than not so at least I know they're looking... but then one could also say that being deleted unread means it was nothing personal. Being deleted read means they didn't like what you had to say. Boo.
Anyway - I've also gotten a response, unsolicited, from someone very nice who seems like a hoot to be with. Now, if only she'd answer her mail more than once a week life would be good. 
Deleting stuff and responding to stuff is a double-edged sword. Sure, you may miss a decent guy in the purge - but personally I can't imagine sifting through six pages of "sup baby ur hawt" every night and responding to each and every one of them with a "there's not enough beer in the world"... erm, 'scuse me, "no, thank you." 
What does get me tho is the profiles that act like they don't care who you are, they'll be happy to hear from you 'cause all they want is someone to hang with. And you write, and they still don't write back. That's an ego-thwacker for sure; being shot down by the ones who aren't even very discriminating.
I find solace in jitterbugging fruit, on such occasions.  | |

Your correct from my point of view on most eveything you said, with the exception of the deletion thing. Yes, I can understand why a lady would chose not to respond to a guy's e-mail if he was thaking crap such as: "Nice profile your boobs look good you want go out, etc?"
However, when a guy is sincere in his appeal then common courtesy demands a respectful reply of some sort; I would think?
Hey, if I could jitterbug fruit then I would get noticed. LOL | |
