Ladies, yes,Mag one and Shallow are my brothers but don't hold it against me, cuz they're both penniless most the time. Don't listen to either of them they will lead you in the path of wrongful living. I'm still paying my last credit care bill they run up on me. A guy just can't help his own brothers out less they take advantage of him.


And you wonder why the family never tells you the location of the reunions?

Mag one,throwing towels in just isn't the right thing to do. Little brother, stand up and tell them there women how smart ,good looking and cunning you are. Heck,I'm here to help you, give you support, so hang in there. I'll help little brother,anytime ya need support or a great recommendation I'll tell them there women how nice ya are and how ya work so hard to get out of working.

Mag one,

Passing on that 30.00 steak just won't work. I've made special provision to store the steak . Little brother I love you as my brother, but you know how it is when one brother owes the other. My help is offered only in the area to help you find a lady that can endure having to work ,have the children,raise the children ,cook our meal,clean house and run errands while you,me and that other scoundrel brother of ours is watching football,and basketball then spending time fishing.

Yeah,this should help you find a dang good woman so me and Shallow will have a dang great sister-in-law....

If I let one of my baby mama's cook and clean I'd have to replace her with two of our scoundrel brother's baby momma's ,cuz mine are worth twice what his are. Beside,Shallow has never been known to pick good baby mommas. The last one he had I let him borrow her.






I think my little brother Mag one is drunk.....Are you drunk baby brother?

I value the effort a person displays by showing a interest.
I thank that atleast warrants acknowledgment.
Besides that, if a person doesn't reply, got to wonder just how serious they are.

Of course there are exceptions. Myself I have missed replying to some emails because of extentuating circumstances. But thats life, not out right disregard.
But unless you already know that person, with their lack of replies, you'll never know.

So just let it go and move on about your business... dropping the person in file 13 as you pass.

I think the ones that dont respond are missing out on possible friendships. If you get sick of someone you can always block them. I have found that most people on here are nice. If you dont like them, why not just tell them thanks but Im not interested? Being nice is nice.

I'm OCCASSIONALY guilty of this one.
<div class='quote'> What I dont like is someone to add me to their favorites list and they havent even talked to me yet.
I have used this feature a couple of times in order to "bookmark" someone that has said something I found unique, thus, I wanted to read what they had to write in the future..
In terms of being "my favorite".. I doubt that would happen because I would have to know them real well on a personal level. And In that case, would be expressing them as my favorite in real life and wouldn't be on this site.

Now that I see that it may bother someone, I will cease doing this.

I try and reply but sometimes regret it..
Most men are players on here and playing several women
at the same time, which I guess is natural..
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to read between the lines
of some of the post on here..
I also think when playing games the guy will go for the younger
female who will probably spead their legs quicker than me..
I'm 52 years old why would a guy my age or older want me
when there are so many younger females on here that they can chase..
I am too tired to run

Isn't the chase the best part?

"Most men are players on here and playing several women

----------
It's not natural, but women invoke this because they aren't serious themselves... brush men off don't respond etc. Whatever the reason is. Men aren't built like a woman if you haven't noticed. While this should not give us the mentality to think like a dog, but for some of us it does.

I have thought about it myself. It's a numbers game... but I don't have the time or energy to pull it off so I take it one at a time. Which is a good barometer as to why I am still here and single. OR so I think, it may be another problem of mine I am blinded to.

I think it also redundant to say guys are all the game players. Where as women who don't respond, could be considered game players themselves. I think the biggest problem is the internet. If it didn't exist the ability to play games would be much less.

The second problem to the game playing scenario is you say you don't want games to be played and so we throw ourselves mercilessly to you and you run from it. [most of the time]. This is another form of game that women wouldn't call a game at all or at least that's the perception portrayed to me. It's called the dreaded "cat and mouse game". The mouse isn't fully dead yet so you play with it some more til you grow tired of it. [ Not saying all women do this, but it's better than 70% in my experience.]

No not always, when all you do is chase all the time it gets rather old. You want to be awarded a prize once in a while. While it's true there are alot of younger women on here 99% of them aren't looking for men much older than they are. Even if the men have never been married / have no kids. It can be fun at times to chase them, but only if they play along. Most of them never respond or block you after the first message.

My opinions are just that my opinions and what I see through my baby blues..
I don't think I said ALL men just most that I see online..
And your opinions are just that "your opinions" and how you believe things to be..
That's what makes us unique in this world!!
I am a true blue one man woman, and I want to remain that way..
through good times and bad times!!!

Ladies you are missing out on some good guys. How do you know if the person writing to isnt the one meant for you. Take some chances. If you dont you could be alone for along time. A friend could be right here. But you wont know because you wont try. Stop living in fear. Just go for it.

EN QARDE ... "players" are plentiful from both sides. Wrong as it sounds, foolish to take anyone at face value. FATE sometimes works on your behalf... but usually not.

Hey Tticker, remove head from sphincter before talking. Subsequently I think you should lay off the bouse.

I think the best thing a girl can tell us is no. Women tend to be more insiteful than we are. Men are likely to settle for anything that turns our heads...

Let me tell you some of the things that have turned my head.... Thank God they said NO!

Off-putting as it is when nice personal messages (that is, NOT generic cut-and-paste things or something like "hi wanna chat") that you've sent to profiles you were genuinely interested in always seem to be just read and ignored ... it's certainly nothing worth getting the slightest bit upset about. It's been happening to me a lot and I personally like to adopt the attitude that if someone thinks she's too good for me and that it's beneath her to even give me the time of day, then she obviously wasn't the sort of girl I'd like to get to know anyway. Move on and try your luck with some others.

Myself, I like to take the time to respond to anybody who was actually interested enough in what I had to say on my profile to write me a message, even if I don't happen to think they look like they'd be suitable for me as far as dating goes. After all, this site doesn't necessarily HAVE to be all about dating and relationships does it - it's always possible to at least gain a nice new friend from simply bothering to be sociable/friendly and responding to peoples' messages as a common courtesy.

Best of luck on the site everyone!! :-)

Wow, I guess I almost never respond just because I did in the beginning and have since decided might be better just threads and public parties...have a young son and don't want to lose any time I have with him playing on computer, though can't resist checking email and sending out a few quickies to these threads, don't want to introduce to him to any new potential dads every other week either...I don't think I am too good, I have baggage and maybe a lot of these people are too nice for me, point is, the reasons people might not respond most likely have nothing to do with you, everyone is living their own reality or they probably wouldn't be here anyway...unless they're some twentysomething hottie with a new computer...

I did complain about this from other dating sites, but I give up. If she actually does respond to me, I will pursue. I can tell you that so far, one within 100 miles of me has responded. All the others have been all over the country because they know I am not after them.

No response, no big. The one that did respond, I did send a second message to. She is the only one that I sent a second message to. I guess I just fancy her for some reason.

Same thing here. Out of the many numbers of women I've contacted, I've only gotten responses from a few. I don't complain about it often though, if there's one thing I've learned from the dating world, it's that nobody likes whiners. :P

Why is it that when a girl says I want to meet you and you say ok she keeps putting it off. I have had this happen a few times. They say they like me but that they have been stocked before. They are shy. Im shy too. But ladies if you wont meet us how will you know the real person? Now I know why so many woman are still single. They are to chicken to meet someone.
