| When sent an email, why can't the person respond? Isn't there a code of courtesy here?
Posted: 7/9/2006 10:32:44 AM | Just wondering if you politely answer every piece of junkmail you get by snailmail or in your email box? Some of those probably have offers that would be good for you, maybe even change your life, but if you're NOT INTERESTED you just drop them in the recycle bin, right? Do you say hello to everyone you meet on the street (or since we're in FL here, at the mall)? Do they respond?
If you wrote Brad Pitt or Lou Dobbs or Prince Albert, would you expect a polite decline? most of the people on here are about as interested in you as they are.
Use a little common sense with your common courtesy. | |

Now thats funny singin
Cause if prince albert ever wrote me back I would truly fall out of my chair/.....
and btw junk mail is just that junkmail thats why we call it " junk "
and as to everyone on the street if they make eye contact with me yes maam
I will say hello
but you are trying to be smart so let me leave you be
I am not as smart as others I guess I am too old fashioned to be smart... | |

Posted: 7/9/2006 6:41:30 PM | | Well, I would not put junk mail in the same category as mail sent personally by someone that is interested in me. I take the time to go through the junk mail and if something strikes me I open it but then again -- if I get a personal letter from a stranger or a friend, I will take the time to read it and respond. Junk mail and personal mail (email) are two completely different things. I do use common sense and common courtesy is common respect. Thank you! | |

Posted: 7/9/2006 6:44:33 PM | | Oh, no, Creamykisses, I think you are very smart -- he was just trying to prove a point taht was not even close to what the question is. Disrespect, no courtesy is not common sense. When you meet someone on the street -- you should always smile -- and say hi. A smile puts a smile in someone's heart and makes their whole day. So you have a very nice happy smiling day! | |

Posted: 7/10/2006 12:51:01 PM | | Hi Rulookin4luv this is my first try have not been on even a week. I try to answer all and I appreciate the time these men have taken to write to me even if I am not interested. It is sort of like walking all the way acrost a dance floor in front of the world to ask someone to dance and they turn you down. You just know everyone is looking at you with pity. I looked at your profile but did not notice your age. I am not saying this to be mean my intentions are good. You may want to take a long look at first pictures of your profile and reword a few things. You look young and you are cute but little one first impressions are the lasting impressions and to be frank I wouldn't answer your email either if I were a man. Those slut trampie shots say one thing the profile says another. I don't want to hurt your feelings I am just honest with you. You will meet all kinds of people here and in the world who have different ways of responding or not to everything. Do not judge harshley or think they are cruel or feel rejected. It is life. You are an attractive young woman who appears to actually be a nice person but those pictures can be show stoppers. If I were a man corresponding to you I would ask if you would send a few more revealing pic to me, however if that first picture shows too much or looks slutty and I don't want a slut then I probably would not even read the email or the profile. I do not like rude people either however they do exist. I can say the replies I have had have for the most part been absolutely wonderful and the few contacts that are not I just let them know I am not interested. I made a bad assumption today that a man was just looking for sex and upset him not meaning to be cruel or rude I screwed up like everyone else does. Now my face is red and I have to apologize. Good hunting as I always say if you go fishing you gotta use the right bait. | |

Posted: 7/10/2006 7:08:15 PM | No problem lifesgood -- when I posted this question -- I was in the red and did not have the 'slutty' picture up at all. I am getting more emails and responses with this picture than I ever got with just the others. Thaks for you opinion though. I thought I wouldn't put up that pic in the beginning and I didn't until just about two days ago! LOL -- goes to show what men are looking for! Such a shame they only see the outside instead of the inside. But you have to put up what is going to catch the glance and then hope they are going to look futher than what is in front of them and I believe most men are very intelligent and will do just that! Thank you again for your input and I, too, wish you luck in your search!
Take care,

Posted: 7/10/2006 7:13:24 PM | Amen, Creamy, tell him! -- he is one good looking man, isn't he? And I am sorry if I sounded like I was slapping you in the face -- I did not mean that. I like your responxes and I hope you continue making your thoughts heard -- nothing wrong with a little 'discussion' now and then. Oh, and I tried emailing ironhorserider, too, but he also has lots of restrictions and I couldn't email him!! Fiddlesticks!!! LOL
Have a great evening!

Posted: 7/10/2006 7:44:55 PM | HeLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO
not all men just like not alllllllllllllll women thank you very much!!!
it is sad you feel you no longer need to send out email but ... for ever 10 you send out you might get 1 reply that could be the favorable one , also look at your mail preferences some people are adamant about age ,location, marriage and all kinds of things
the more preferences one has the less amt of people can contact you
so thats something you might want to think about also
just another 2 cents I had lying(sp) around | |

Posted: 7/10/2006 10:01:30 PM | Common courtesy is a misconception held onto by our ancestors. This act simply does not exist in our current modern age of so called enlightlenment. If you are a nice and decent person with manners and act as a gentleman, you are ignored and replaced by someone who is an arrogant ass that mistreats people and is less than intelligent.
I have formally given up on my quest to find someone of value as I believe she no longer exists, or at long least is not interested in me.......

Posted: 7/11/2006 1:38:59 AM | This is a common problem on all dating sites. On here I have set a handful of emails out...and most just say "Read" (in the sent message thingy) and I never get anything back from the person. I have even been surprised by some when it said "Read Deleted" and then they IM on yahoo or AIM later. I guess some are just not into emailing. This has shown me though that "Read Deleted" isnt always a deffinite NO (though I do include my IM screen names in messages). Though it would be nice for the ones who are not interested to say "Sorry, I'm not interested". Though I know that most won't take the time to do that. On this site I seem to get more IMs then emails anyways. lol  | |

Posted: 7/11/2006 5:16:05 AM | sorry, knochturnal1, yes, I have heard some of the women are just as bad as the men. That both genders need some manner courses. Sorry, you quit writing -- keep emailing just don't worry about those gals -- they were probably not worth it anyway. That is what everyone tells me about the guys -- so if they don't respond then they weren't worth it anyway!
Take care,

Posted: 7/11/2006 5:20:22 AM | Thanks, Creamy, for those two cents they were very well spent. Did I say 'all' oops I am sorry I meant a majority of the men are like that. Sorry. I haven't given up on emailing just take my time on who I send it to now -- I read over everything carefully and consider what their preferences are and then I send out the email and...i have taken the attitude if they don't respond -- oh, well, that is their loss. No problem.
Take care and a have great day!

Posted: 7/11/2006 5:24:51 AM | I am sorry, cruisinkurt, please don't give up there are many women who are interested in a gentleman. I don't want to believe that respect, courtesy, manners have gone out of this society -- I want to believe that there are some who are sincere in their gestures. Anyway, I thought the enlightenment age was the 1800s -- when so many things had changed our world to what it is today. Anyway, thank you for writing and I hope you decide to go back and look some more and just write -- who knows maybe this forum is changing people's minds.
I hope so -- have a great day and take care,

But serious, out of courtesy, people really should respond, someone took the time to write so why not just say thanks.
