does the whole world hate me
Yeap.
Any questions.
Realize that the world actually does not give a s hit about you, me, or anyone. You have to just get over yourself and keep trying and keep connecting until people that dig you come along. Then if they hate you, that's a whole different issue. | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 6/29/2012 10:33:34 AM | | Well what pisses me off the most is that sometimes when I send a message and the message doesn't even get sent out no matter what I put in the message, its like pof only wants me to send messages to certain people and not people I want to talk to, pof only lets me send messages to very few people. Oh and I think its retarded when a girl tells me to text her but doesn't even give me her number wtf and its stupid when they ask if I want to exchange numbers and I give them my number but but they don't give me their number WTF I guess some girls on here are dumb as hell or something | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 6/29/2012 10:37:58 AM | | that fact the pof doesn't send my messages most of the time is bullshit and whats the point of "contact us" in help if there's no way at all to contact pof WTF | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/2/2012 12:36:11 AM | | Just hang in there and be respectful to girls online as you would IRL. When composing a first email to a young lady always find something specific and complimentary to say about her profile, not just her photos. You might get a better response rate. Many women have disabled their chat feature for various reasons (scammers, pressure, etc.). Also, no reply is the standard "no thanks" on dating sites. In any case, it is never all about you so 1) show some empathy, and 2) don't take rejection personally. | |

I was beginning to wonder if any of my messages were being sent, let alone read. I know there is a way to upgrade and see if your messages were being read and what time the user was last on specifically. There is a Sent Msg feature that allows you to check on the messages you've sent as well as their compisition, that way you can look at what you've written in the past, not that anything has really worked for me. I'm sure most of guys are wondering why we don't get replies and that's something that's hard to grasp because the truth is women get tons of messages, they can afford to be selective and might not even read or open all of their messages. This is all in theory though, I also don't wanna be mass sending messages like some people do. | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/3/2012 8:26:26 PM | | You are completely missing the point, "pof WON'T SEND most of my messages" its not about them not replying anymore its that pof WON'T SEND most of my messages so they can't reply to a message that they never received. | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/4/2012 12:47:22 AM | | did you not read my other post "POF HAS NO PHONE NUMBER" AND "NO EMAIL ADDRESS" IF ANYONE EVER NEEDED TO CONTACT THEM SO IT DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF "CONTACT US" | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/4/2012 4:57:28 AM | anyway mate, what u have here among perhaps some helpful people, is alot of blaming nonsense i wouldnt get worked up about. maybe youve responded poorly too, i dont know and im not gonna waste my time reading evrything.
i just looked at your profile, here's some tips
tips:
get some smiling pictures get a few, get some of u and other girls get some of you and some friends - get a whole body shot too if poss.
make ur tagline POSITIVE
Get RID of 'Christian Other' just put 'Other' it sounds too fundamentalist and crazy
Talk up lonewood star - is it a college? tel a story about it, a mistake , a redemption, funny ANYTHING, what elese u like about being there, cool teachers/students, making frineds etc..
message girls with something about what thye've written in their profile. | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/4/2012 8:14:59 AM | | I don't think that people on here really care about reading profiles very much anyway. The first thing they do is look at your pics and if they don't like them, they don't respond. I've used POF on and off for a few years and I've written lengthy, heartfelt profiles. Sometimes I wrote very brief and uninteresting profiles just to see if there was much of a difference. There wasn't. Don't dwell on the unresponsiveness too much, and don't take the forum criticism too harshly. Live life. That's what I do. | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/4/2012 11:12:30 AM | | well I bet nobody here can even contact the pof staff if you don't believe me go ahead and try to contact them, try to prove me wrong because i know its impossible to contact the pof staff. go to "HELP" and click "contact us" and then you'll know what I mean. | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/4/2012 11:45:24 PM | | I'm so confused Kid! So you had a girlfriend but you don't know her phone number? You don't know where she lives or where to find her? no email? How long did you have this girlfried for? Even my ex boyfriend from 10 years ago knows how to get a hold of me! Just sayin'! | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/5/2012 11:18:36 AM | | I don't know her phone number because my phone bricked and the only way to fix it was to factory reset it but I'm going to get her number back. I filled out a call record request form and sent it a week ago, now I just have to wait about a month to get my call records and then i'll have her number | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/5/2012 1:59:46 PM | | Maybe its just a shortage of positive people ( smile bro) . To be honest if you had a flood of messages you probably would become a online player also do you really want to spend time talking with someone who will waist time and money? We all have times where we don't receive messages and most of the time it depends on if your a paying member or your profile is simply an eye catcher. | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/5/2012 6:04:51 PM | | Well I really don't care about sending messages or getting replies anymore, all I care about now is getting my call records so can get my girlfriend's number back so I can finally feel happy to think about her :) | |

| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/7/2012 12:01:53 AM | some women get like 3o or 40 messages a day. also, i am sure there are some women like me that don't like to chat. i hate it. i usually come on here really quick for like 10 min to answer an email or something. i don't have time to sit and just chat with someone for a half hour. i hate it! when people IM me, i just ignore it unless i know them. i do have some friends on here, and those are the people i might chat with.
you shouldnb't take it personally. just be persistent! | |
|
| why does nobody ever reply or want to chat? Posted: 7/7/2012 7:33:20 PM | or they could be lazy?
like me, I have 50 unreplied messages.
and I only been on this site for 3 weeks.
I bet you, most are probably like "wanna see my****" or some along the lines.
Which doesn't really make me feel bad for not reading and replying =P | |
