OP,

If you're like me they don't reply because I have saggy man breasts and no azz.

However I don't mind not having an azz because it makes my 'uvula' look bigger!

Dude......you could not have said it so well, thanks for reality check and making my coffee leak from my nose after reading your answer. Gotta go clean my monitor.
Good Luck and for everyone else.....stop looking and do what you want to do in life and the masses, unfortunatly you will come to see will flock.....then you can choose.
Life is to short to spend with someone who does not love you.

Speaking for myself, I respond if there is a photo, usually not if there is not.

As for the previous response, learn to spell.

I relpy to everyone. It doesn't matter if I'm interested or not. It takes five seconds to at least send back a "Hi! I'm busy at the moment, but I'll talk to you later." The only excuse I can think of is they're either stuck up and full of themselves, or they don't know how to tell you they're not interested. Hell, if you don't want to talk to someone at least have the balls to say so. This goes for men and women!

Very true, persistance does pay off Channien, except with the women that are on here for an ego boost or just to play games.

I have to say that I don't too often message ladies but the few times I have I always got a response. I am courteous and polite and always a Gentleman.

Maybe if you keep getting no reply after sending a message might mean there should be a red flag on the one sending the message. Also by making such a negative thread shows that one is a negative person and I am pretty sure that the negativity is showing through.

I have found the ladies here to be just that.....Ladies through and through and Ladies like to be treated as such.

hmmmmm Could it be that a lot of men on here start their subject lines with hey just curious,
do you wear panty hose? or do you do it on the first date? DUH Dudes.....maybe it's the way you come across. Us ladies are single that doesnt mean we are desperate. We like you are on here in the hopes of meeting that right someone and along the way meeting new friends.

If your on here just to get a quick lay then maybe you should rethink where you need to post. If the profile says long term then why propose a quickie???? Really, it goes both ways. You should try to at least respond to all who take the time to write. But, personally I delete those with subject line red flags...one nighters.

by the way ... dating sites do work. I have three friends that have met their spouses online dating sites and one from here. One particular couple has been married for three years and you couldnt find a happier couple. The others have been married from three months to a year and half. They as well are as happy as they have ever been.

So keep your heads up, there is someone special out there for all of us.

Lorac12, you should not rag on people for misspelled words. If you want to criticize, restructure your sentence "usually not if there is not". Only one person in this world is perfect. A small mistake here and there could be overlooked. Just my personal opinion. If it is really such a big deal....go to ieSpell.com and there you can download a web browser spell checker for free. Once you finish typing, simply hit the ieSpell check and it will spell check for you. Hope this helps those of you who are consistently being ridiculed.

Be creative, unique, give them a reason to want to message you back. Show them you actually read their profile (this is a big one). Don't just send a message that says 'hey whats up, you're hot', they get a billion of those, if they wanted sex they'd have it already.

Have respect for yourself, that's fine if they go for the 'better looking guy' wish them luck if they do. Remember you have a lot to offer too, it's their loss if they choose not to talk to you.

Remember not all women on here are always active or have time to message you or maybe they're already seeing someone. The ratio of men to women online is way out of whack. I'd say 70%men to 30% women. It can be frustrating to us guys when trying to find a lady to talk to. I think somtimes this is a bad thing for women. Not that it's bad they have variety and a wide selection, but this causes them to get *too* picky (and sometimes down right****) and never find what they want (and not give a guy their fair chance with them).

If after all this it didn't work, maybe it wasn't meant to be?

Hope this helps! :)

Just my two cents.

Mike

Mike hit it right on target. You have to be honest. Like, HELLO, why would you send a message to someone that said.."Hey, I just checked out your profile. Love the pic..get back to me"...Well dumbass, I dont have a picture posted. So did you just check out my profile?? uuhhh, not. We are going to tell if your lying. Ladies would much rather contact guys she thinks sound honest. Guess the same could be said in gals contacting guys.

Just a shot in the dark (or 2) here.

1.) No picture=few responses
2.) A short boring profile=no responses
3.) You're not rich enough to draw the response of a woman that wants to "trade up"
4.) You're reaching out of your depth with the women you're messaging
5.) Don't know the M/F ratio here, but if it's like most dating sites, you've got lots of competion (more male than female members)
6.) Lots of women really just don't care.
7.) You don't have a Harley (LOL I don't either, something about scraping cycle riders off the pavement into plastic bags too many times to consider being killed or horribly injured fun)
8.) How much money do you make again?
9.) You don't have 6 pack abs
10.) Maybe it's time to get that picture of that new Kia Sephia off your profile
11.) How much money do you make again?

I agree with you! It's their choice... they have to deal with the consequences of never having the pleasure to meet somebody who might actually want to get to know them.

It's all psychology... some women THINK that they are unapproachable and so damn hot that they are the only one for you, and that you'll go out of your way to shower them with attention -- knowing that you won't get a reply -- because that's all some women want... is attention. They know that there are gullible men who will sit by the phone, and wait for them to call. Well, men -- let me tell you this... hold your breath!

Whenever I send a woman an e-mail, she will only get that one, until I get a response from her. Either she replies or she doesn't -- her decision -- I don't you live by it... I have better things to do. I mean, why wait for somebody who has no intention of responding to you, when somewhere -- perhaps just around the corner, so to speak -- there is that special somebody who has been waiting for you all her life, and is dying to get to know you, and meet you some day. But if you waste your valuable time on those who play the "ignore" game, you'll never know, and end up missing out on something that could be the best thing in your life. Spend your time, talking with somebody else... instead of waiting for somebody to talk to you; and, if she turns out to be an "Attention Seeker" as well, go to somebody else who is worthy of your time, because you're definitely not worthy of the other persons... at least, that is what SHE thinks. Some women just wants to see how accommodating you are to her every whim. Perhaps, after a few loney weekends she spends listening to her messages (left by some of you) on her phone answering machine, she'll realize that there is a big world out there to explore... but she's not part of it, because she's too busy playing her little "games".

Yo' Dude,
you are on a site called, "Plenty of Fish" it is meant for a reason.

I am sure that the conversation has progressed beyond your original question, but try to think of it this way.

"Their Loss!"

hey i have to intervein on this. I can not speak for the other gals but I always give it a response whether it be **** off or hey... would love to get to know you.

I go through sometimes and email you guys and I never get a response and my theory has always been the hell with them then their loss. Now I can see where ya'll are coming from but this is a two way street. We are not the only ones guilty of thinking they are too good for someone and no responding.

I am not into men bashing at all but I also have got to say, women are NOT the only ones guilty of being shallow and not wanting to respond. Even a "no thanks' is better than nada ya'll.

Hey, that works both ways. Men will not write back if you are within their age range (they want younger women with pics on this site with their boobs hanging out. I don't have a pic up because I don't have one but I certainly have more respect for myself than to throw my boobs in front of the camera just to get a man. If a man is that shallow, then he deserved the slutty looking women. I am not that desperate. And to all of you women who will be insulted by this, well, take a look at what you are trying to sell in some of your pics. What do you think a man would think. He automatically thinks SEX because that is the way they are wired. At 55, independent, and self-confident, I don't need to expose myself to make friends.

Pharoahseye I agree with you on some of the pics that are out there.. But I do not feel that my pic is in any way Flaunting what GOD gave me.. and yes GOD Gave me these. It still does not stop the Idiots who message me with comments like "love the twins" "Great tits" "What size" and other remarks.. My pic I hope shows the person I am. I get tired of the idiots who think that all we women are here for is their pleasure. GET A GRIP..... You guys are just as bad about not responding. If the woman isnt pretty enough, or skinny enough, or Big enough.. short enough, tall enough.. what ever the issue is.. you just delete the email and go on complaining about how women do not respond to their emails.

I respond to each of my emails.. except the ones above... they were deleted and blocked. I will tell them that they are not my type.. and that I wish them luck in their search. NO big deal.. takes a whole 30 secs to write and send that email.

Hmmm....that's funny because I pretty much deleted my profile because...
you DO take the time to reply to a guy and he....doesn't even have the decency to reply BACK!
You know how many men have emailed me....and then just ignored my reply back???
After so much of that you figure...why even bother replying????
He's just going to read it...delete it....and not reply back and yet HE is the one who emailed me first!
It's like the guys on here are the ones looking for an ego boost....
They want to see how many women will reply!
So they can think they are a stud or something...
I have met TWO guys in person from here...TWO!!!!!
because MOST of them may send one or two emails then never bother to write back!
THEY are the ones jerking women around....
They don't want to actually MEET a woman in person.....
I guess they have to wait til they can sneak out of the house when the wife/girlfriend isnt around or they have social phobia issues...
who knows.....
I just know its a waste of time to reply back to guys because none of them are actually interested in talking to you.
And if I'm "too aggressive" or whatever....well who gives a sh$t then to meet him anyways....if he's THAT much of a pansyboy he only wants frail weak women who bow to his will then him and I wont get along!
