I guess it depends on the person. If they're getting tons of emails then they might not have time. Or maybe they're already talking to someone and aren't interested in talking to more ppl. Or maybe they're just plain not interested. Who knows? There's tons of reasons why.
But hey that's no reason to give up. You're a young good looking guy, don't give up!

Um sddude
The people who have me on their favourites list have never emailed me or sent an Im

How do you figure I have gotten more response? No man has ever replied to an email I sent.

because you are young , beautiful and unattainable , in my 40 plus years of experience thats a guy magnet
I'm not trying to be holier thatn thou or anything its just an observation and being ignored repeatedly is an ego buster (not what I really wanted)

I find the men that contact me very respectful,funny and just dang nice.I've no issues with any of them.Some i have emailed because i thought they would be nice to talk to,they r aware or made aware i am with someone but still they talk and we enjoy each others company.Yes,men can be fun and nice to hang with.Not all men are pervs as all women aren't either.

I guess it is bully for me.

Im very new to this personals site and havent gotten any replies yet. haha But,,,,have been to other ones and have responded back. If im not interested,,,,,,i find it hard to think of something to say cuz i dont want to hurt anyones feelings. I think for some women,,that may be why they dont respond..not knowing what to say.

Why would general conversation be hard.i think most women caterorize men as pervs or asses when in fact 99% of them are very cordial,funny and entertaining.Why is it people can only talk to people if there is a possible chance of a relationship.I clarify in my profile i am in a relationship so men wanting one usually won't contact me,those that do are interested in just getting to know are great men.Maybe it takes the pressure of knowing i'm not wanting to fal in love with them,i dunno.I've yet to meet anyone rude or disrespectful.

Well hun you can't really say you're in the same situation then, now can you? These are people who are looking for a relationship, so if guys see that you're already in one, most of the slimes will look elsewhere, for someone who isn't in one.

It's not really about how people can only talk to people if there's a possible chance of relationship, but I'm sorry, someone msgs another girl with "hey let's f_uck" and whatever then no, sorry... no conversation from me lmao!

And please, spare me the whole "but it's because of your pictures" because I know for a fact it happens to other women who don't have provacative pictures in there. There should be a thread for people to post all the weird/awful stuff that's msged to them. I'm pretty sure it'd blow your "99% of them are very cordial, funny and entertaining" theory out of the water.

lucci--

im not sure you can compare yourself with the rest of us who are looking...you state right up front that you are in a relationship and that probably helps to ward off the a$$es sending the raunchy messages to the rest of us.


And please, spare me the whole "but it's because of your pictures" because I know for a fact it happens to other women who don't have provacative pictures in there.


this is very very true...there is hardly anything provocative about my pictures....i understand i have a couple of..um...features...that arent easily hidden, but that is no excuse for the different emails i get from some guys. not all guys...and like i said before, if it is respectful, i will try to answer, unless im crazy busy or in one of my moods where im tired of dealing with the guys who cant handle the rejection.

I never judged your pictures,i never looked.Maybe you're all correct and the men that emssage me are of a higher calibre.but again i'm pretty sure those looking for a relationship aren't all pigs and pervs.some are just freakin nice lonely men.

Okay, I think this is because they are weighing the pros and cons of talking to you. Then consorting with the magic 8 ball, then a tarot reading, then a call to miss cleo, etc... oh sorry and a flower (he loves me, he loves me not, he......) . Either that or they are composing a rough draft with all of their friends on how to properly write to you about how they would so much enjoy your company, but since they have been damaged by a past love that they wouldn't be able to give you the kind of affection you desire and deserve. Which you think is a hock of bull, but its just how they feel.

@ Lucci: your profile distinctly says no dates. So why would anyone other than guys wanting to talk bother with you? I get those guys too. I get a lot of horn dogs. I get some nice gentlemen looking for dates, too (coincience? its why I am on this thing.)

And my picture is pretty plain jane. I have no make up on! I think the gist is, if you want to meet young women on the internet, show up with some game. Want an intelligent woman (I happen to be one) act like an intelligent man.

Ok fair enough but i still hold faith that if i were available most men would still be respectful .Call me naive but i beleive the majority of men on here are just normal guys looking for someone to love.Yes as in all aspects of life there are asses and i guess i've been lucky enough to be spared them.

I certainly don't mean to demean any of u and i surely do not suggest anyones profile calls for rude or lascivious behaviour.

Happy fishing

LOL Yeah suuuurrreeee, try the "no thanks, not interested" response and you get mobbed in the forums as someone who thinks "just a tad too highly of yourself"...

Screw that...I'm not replying if I'm not interested.

You may have tried to mail me, but my statement is still true. I have never been contacted by the people on my list.

Fox that is strange because when you had your pic and when you ad to the forum , you seem like a very interesting woman to get to know , maybe something is wrong with your profile or something is wrong , even women that are not particularly appealing to guys get e-mails , you may have a technical problem on the site.

HAHAHAHA

A technical problem with the site? No, I don't think so...maybe a technical problem with my AGE?

This is the old profile...


I am very easy going, high energy, enthusiastic and love to laugh. I spend a lot of time in the gym as I am getting serious about BODYBUILDING and I am planning on competing in November. Just to put your minds at ease, no I am NOT on steroids or other drugs and YES I still have soft curvy bits.

My 3 offspring are now adults and off living their own lives.

I would like to meet someone who is also fit or close to it (no need to be ripped), who can make me laugh and who would be interested in doing things like hiking, exploring, going to the beach or whatever! I am not looking for a workout partner, thanks.

Please note: I am looking for a man who is willing to spend time with me even if we are both clothed! No smokers and no drugs.
Might be this last bit that caused all the problems?

Nope...that profile ran for 4 months. I got one "real" local response and that was in the first week. I have since given up completely and posted something completely different.

@MrsLucci-Thank you so much for standing up for us guys. I personally write to most woman in here as friends. The fact is most live so far away that friends is all we'll ever be.
@whothefox-Your new pics are cute but I miss seeing your face in here. If you lived a little closer and I didn't smoke, I'd have written you
OP-I feel I write a proper message most times, yet I still don't get an answer. I think my picture might have a little something to do with it. Oh well!

It's not just the women who don't reply men do the same thing. But one thing I have noticed that if you don't have a picture you don't get many e-mails but thats cool because before I would want to get to know someone because of the way they look I would rather wait to see if they have a heart first and are who they say they really are........ Oh and for the women out there if Right1 contacts you unless you want to be on a list of friends with benefits he isn't who he says he really is after about 3 weeks then you find out the real person......
