lot of you pof members male & female tend to be desperate people and think who ever replies wants to date you or get into your pants!
Well I have never been desperate let alone dateless!
But then that whats seperates me from the rest of you !
I just had to quote this and repost it .... just so the rest of the masses can have a chuckle the second time around, or should I say the 20th???
In one word to that comment above.....bullocks!
90% of this pofers posts SCREAMS desperation!
And wait for it....he will come back with some kind of snide remark about me, cuz that is what richards do!
On topic, I reply to all emails, even to say thanks for saying hi, and I hope you have much success in your search. That reply is generally appreciated! It is nice to be acknowledged, even if there is no interest! | |

Posted: 8/20/2009 7:26:32 PM | "Most women are just on here because their bored"
"and we're desperate people for being in here?"
Gee, what does that make you?
I like being in here for the forums and making new friends. I still get out with the friends I have and I have no problems getting dates, this avenue is just another doorway to making friends. I do reply to ALL messages I receive, even the dirty nasty ones and Im not rude or crude about it either, there is no need for it. But I guess according to your description of the women in here Im not the norm, maybe just freaky for being courteous.
If you generalize about women stating that "most" fit your description of what we are then its not wonder you seem so bitter and hateful towards woman. This is what I read in the replies you've posted.
Whatever YOUR looking for in here, good luck with that, looks like you'll need it. | |

Pity? Really? As has been shown in this thread there are plenty of reasons some will justifiably not respond.
How do you figure it's worth wasting your time to a message like "nice tits. you interested in a **** ?"
Obviously I was referring to the decent guys who aren't stuck up horny pricks on here just to get laid, those people don't deserve a response, nor do women deserve to be treated in that manner either. Guys can be douchebags if they want, they are just proving to women that the general population of men think with the head in their pants instead of the one on their shoulders which in turn ruins it for the decent guys. | |

Posted: 8/21/2009 1:34:26 PM | There are a few reasons why some women don't reply, the main one is "not interested" due to looks, it also depends on what the content of the holds email.
If your intro is "nice set of hooters" or "wanna f@ck," do you honestly think you'll get a reply?????For the jerk offs that do send intros as mentioned above you guys deserve to be ignored,
it is however unfortunate for the guys who are gentlemen,
that we automatically fall victim due to others actions.

Posted: 8/23/2009 5:20:35 AM | If a woman has taken the time to write me and I don't think we are a match, I would respond so...that, I think is polite...I don't bother to respond to the "would you tell me why" question that often follows...in the past when I did it lead to an univited arguement.
No is no for a man too. | |

Posted: 8/23/2009 9:22:22 AM | The very first time I sent a 'Thanks, but no thanks' message on this site, the very first day I joined, I got a reply back from the a$$ so hateful, so full of curses and mysoginistic slurs that I learned my lesson quickly.
No one, guy or girl, is obligated to respond. Only respond to those you're considering meeting. | |

Posted: 8/23/2009 11:04:05 AM | There a a couple ways to look at this. Personally, just my opinion of course, it is rude not to answer at all. One could at least have the decency to say no thank you, nice to meet you but I am not interested, we are supposed to be all grown ups here and if you can't take constructive critisism, then you have the problem. The old saying goes is "its not what you say its how you say it" and unfortunately that applys to verbal conversations, so on here we have to expect that not everyone is going to like us or we are not thier type and so on, but if you are going to email someone whom you think you could be a match with, common courtious emails are a must if you expect to have any responses. Hope that helps Blades1590. Good Luck!! | |

Posted: 8/27/2009 8:14:29 PM | Unless the person was a total piglet, I've always responded to anyone who took the time to write..even if it's just a "Thanks for your email, best of luck in your search". It's just a common courtesy thing for me.
What used to slay me were the guys that said they "respond to every email" in their profile..and they didn't.  | |

Posted: 8/29/2009 6:14:10 PM | | Until last night I used to get a little annoyed when seeing my email was deleted without a reply. I might be guilty of that on occasion too. Now last night I went to a local hangout and I swear half the women that were there have profiles here on POF, some being women from which I have fallen prey to the read/delete. Hindsight being 20/20 I am glad those emails were not replied too!!! From now on if I come across a read delete I will just see it as them doing me a huge favor ! | |

Posted: 9/19/2009 5:59:22 AM | I agree with Devine. I get emails that require a yes or no answer, so I answer accordingly.
If someone takes the time to write me, I say thanks for taking the time to write me, then they think they're in and I get 20 emails from some guy that I know isn't a fit. For example, last night a very nice gentleman emailed me. It was obvious that he wasn't my type, but I didn't want to be rude so I made small talk with him awhile then went to bed. This morning there was a long email about how he really enjoyed our conversation and was online awaiting a response. I replied that he was very nice, but I didn't feel we were a match, thanked him for his time and wished him luck.
He got mad at me and said, I don't "BOTHER" you anymore. Well.. it wasn't like that, I don't have to fall in love with someone because they say hello.
When you know from the beginning there is no match, why lead the other on? Why waste the time if there is something in their pic or profile that isn't what you're looking for? It seems easier to not respond, because when I do, I have to deal with more drama.
BTW, men do that too.

Posted: 9/20/2009 10:42:10 AM | | If someone does respond but with a very short answer to a question I may have asked in my introductory message and doesn't have a question for me as well, I will take that as a 'thanks but no thanks'. Does everyone think that's pretty accurate? | |

Posted: 9/20/2009 6:36:57 PM | | today i received my first "thanks but no thanks" kind of message. i was stunned that i got one and was glad i did. it is much nicer getting one of those than just reading read/deleted in the outbox. i haven't had to send one yet as i haven't gotten a message from anyone who i have not messaged first. | |

actually i would agree with that. If i type a email after looking at a profile and spend the time to actually make it interesting i would expect that the person would write back with something more then just "pic?"
lol i really do consider one word or two word emails back as a 'thanks but no thanks'. It's like when people answer a question just for the sake of answering a question rather then initiation a conversation.
lol been tempted to answer back with "ok" before but have so far been successful in stopping myself | |

Posted: 9/22/2009 6:00:46 PM | Of course it's rude not to respond to an email that is sent to you and I have read some of your responses to this question, I see that some of you lay the blame for not responding to an email on women only but guys are just as guilty for doing this as well. I have sent emails to different guys on this website in particular and they very seldom, if ever get answered. The guy either, reads it and deletes it or reads it and ignores it or he doesn't read it at all and deletes it. I have often wondered, why I even bother sending these emails to different guys on this website in particular because of the way they react to them by not responding to them at all? If they would send an email in response saying they are not interested would be better then not responding at all but I guess it just takes too much effort to do even that!
No such thing as good manners these days, I guess, right? I wonder where they went, don't you? | |
