I had a girl do that with my profile too. I feel like some sort of common card in a baseball card collection!

well fo rme personally u have nothing on your profile about yourself or anything it's pretty blank and i'm not sure if u had a pic up when this happened but it culd mean she thought u were cute but no substance, if i were u and i'm no one so dont listne but i would deff add something and then write her again just saying u updated your profile

if she's popular, she's probably busy, but if she's added you that's a positive sign!!!. Message her again I dated this guy that would add people to his favs hoping the girls would notice and contact him. Sometimes it works. Give it a try.

good luck, OP! that's great news!

yes winebuddy, i have done the same thing myself! the only problem is, it's never worked!

and dreamboat, i wouldn't worry about it -- you should be flattered, what's wrong with being an admired baseball card anyway? ;-)

I would go ahead and email her again. If she has added you to her favorites list-- take it to mean that something about you has caught her attention.
She may indeed be shy and is waiting to see if she will hear from you again. Don't read too much into the no reply part-- not knowing what you wrote-- I assume it could not have been too horrible or she would not have added you to her fav's list. It could simply be that she is uncertain how to reply without sounding desperate/ needy/ or overly confident as the case may be. Give her a chance-- what have you got to lose by becoming a friend and contacting again??

You're a trophy dude. Like when a cat bites the head off a mouse but leaves the body for you to step on when you go out to get the morning paper.

Actually, no. She's probably looking through your profile right now and noticing this thread...OMG she says. I was going to email that guy but now I think he sucks!

It could be that she has added you to favorites but isn't chatting with you currently because she is to busy, moving or currently dating someone exclusively. I've been there so I know.

It wouldn't hurt to ask.

Maybe she was hoping that you would add her to your list to build her number higher. For some this is just an ego boost. I wouldn't worry about it.

Or she's answering the emails in turn and doesn't want to forget you.

My guess is msg #10 got it right: your in the maybe pile in case something else/better doen't happen upon her. Or she may be talking regularily to someone that she would like to persue. Its tough when there are a few potentials, but you only feel right meeting one at a time. Because if you meet them, and like them all, you will have to choose one, and we always choose wrong! I would say wait it out and watch for profile changes, or email and let her know that you are interested in getting to know her and are willing to wait for her to be free to do so.

I think some people just add anyone who emails them to their favorites list.

It means different things to different people. I'm just using it to retain the profiles of people I am exchanging messages with. If they aren't responding then they can come off the list.

Hi Hun,I do think that in most cases,it is a bookmark kind of thing.Just don't take it as some sort of authoritative measure of your worth as a person,you have to decide if she measures up to your ideals too.Its a 2 way street in life's games,and untill anything is for real,it's still a game,and dont take it more personally than you would a scrabble tournament.Its not about you,really,it's about her!.You have much more productive things to occupy your mind with,I am sure.

I have been on a number of men's favorites and never heard a word from them. Some, well most, I remove after a time as I figure if they wanted to talk to me they would have. The year 2007 be hanged, I still prefer a man to write and intiate the conversation.


Just because you show up on their favorites list does not mean they are interested in you, or getting to know you. Perhaps, you have made a comment in a forum that they like and are tracking what you say..For whatever reason..

If you have written and get no reply, it's safe to assume she is not interested.

Women put me on THEIR favorites list, but never write nor respond
Posted: 2/17/2007 9:11:45 PM
Stranger things are happening. Two women added me to their favorites list, whom I have never contacted. I sent email to them and received no reply. Closed my account for a while. When I returned to Plenty of Fish, I opened a new account. One of the same women has again put me on her favorites list. She still won’t answer any type of message. I’m not the least bit worried, but this is a little strange. It’s like some kind of cyber-stalking. On the other hand, it could be a weird quirk in the software that runs this site. The database might be telling me that I am on their favorites list, when I am actually not. If this is the case, they are probably not thrilled to get my email! LOL

charlesbabbage,
check the restrictions she has at the bottom of her profile page.
it could be that she has listed an age group and you are just outside it.
this is why i have very few e-mail restrictions, because, if you put in an age group like 40 55 then anyone who is not between 40 and 55 will be blocked from writing to you.
i'm just wondering if she's even getting the messages?

Maybe , she is interested in you, but has no time to write you! I am a graduate student who checks her POF E-mail and puts guys on her favorite list and I will write them when I have time!
I have many men who puts me on their favorite list and they never emailed me once! i figure they just like my pictures and that is ok with me because there are plenty of fish out there! Sounds like you need to go<

"I had the same thing dude. A girl had me on her favorites, so I emailed her, and no response. So I emailed her again and asked her why she wouldn't respond if I was in her favorites. At no time was I rude.

Next day, I'm no longer in her favorites. And no response to my second email either.

Welcome to POF - where logic and real-life experience is thrown out the window in favor of confusion and questions."

Haha, ok then its not just me than that this happens to!

WOW!!

Its not strange at all; you are way reading into things; some people go back to read their profiles or they like the photos. You are thinking too much.
