I am quite unattractive (possibly hideous) and still get quite a few girls replying and sending me mail. when you go out im sure you are not attracted to every girl you see theres always that one or two exceptional ones that sparkle whether it be for the big bright eyes or extra cute smile or dangerous dimples or perhaps that they r just so sweet that the sound of her voice is like angels singing. Its also kind of hard to get to reely know someone by typeing back n forth on the computer and some people need more time b4 they r comfortable meeting you. maybe try not bein in such a hurry and maybe not refering to women as chicks might help a lil too but just my thoughts so have fun.

Interesting the amount of people that go on the war path here to rebuke the claim opposed to just ignoring it if they think its rubbish.

I don't know who I am more disgusted by, The OP or MoonFish.

That's why I've come up with a highly scientific formula to find out how many responses to expect back. You take the number of girls you've messaged (Let's say 20) then you divide it by 4. So 20/4=5. You should get 5 responses (On the high end) if you msg 20 chicks.


I used to get a better response rate than that when I used to send out messages, I must have been doing it wrong....

what a disgusting display of piggishness! i find it interesting that the most piggish of comments come from a couple of people who frequent these forums and generally have rude crude things to say. an opinion is one thing but to bash women and talk about 200 lb bears and such..... go home and play with your little marbles little boys and leave the big games to the big boys......

Have you ever heard of common courtesy?


It's been my observation that anything with "common" in the name, isn't.

MACNEWS,

You couldn't have said it better. That's what I've heard before. The women here are picky and never get anything. They are the one getting messages easily. They get to choose between an assortment of men. They get picky. They never work to get any person. They worry about it tomorrow. That's why they're always here and their status is always "single".

Hey, I think that's how evolution works too, so men need to suck it up and face REALITY. You're either something or nothing. And women decide this!

Wow...there are some really wise, some really inane, and some really sad responses in this thread.
Thing to remember is that what you put out there is exactly what you'll get back. Now saying that I dont mean "hey baby wanna get it on" will get you "hey baby gimme your hot meat"... (well maybe in rare circumstances, but what self respecting guy wants a woman he cant respect in return?)

Women are wonderful. That is a basic, undeniable fact. And you know what? So are we men. Its what we have CHOSEN to do with the things that have transpired in our lives that shape the people we are today.

Ive been a pig. Ive been an ***hole. Ive been a chauvanistic **stard. Whats it got me? Well, a history of bitterness which I have since laid down and walked away from. I got tired of packing it around. One tends to wear that shit like a sign around ones neck.

This is going to sound smarmy and some of you more testosterone enriched dudes may scorn me for saying it, but really...

All you gotta do is look at who you are, the whole of you. Accept and love that person. Treat that person with kindness and respect. Once you do, you will automatically start treating others, regardless of gender, with the same attitude.

Guess what happens next?

You attract the exact same types of people into your life. You find yourself surrounded by echoes of your own heart. Scoff if you like, I know this to be true simply through my own experience.

I came on here hoping to send a message of encouragement to someone I hold highly in my esteem, but the email isnt working. But I did find this thread in my attempts to send my message...which was basically just a hug and a wish for an excellent weekend.

You know who you are.

Mostly you get overweight, bitter, mentally ill, too much baggage gals online .... on the dating sites. The rejects from pay sites.. NOT ALL... but mostly thats what you get... tread lightly and be ready for anything... fugly, frumpy, fat, fifty, crazy and/ or even some women who look like men and outweight them.
If your ok with those issues, you should have no problems doing online dating...
blind dates. UGh.... no more of that for me.. not since the frosting incident.

Not to mention, whiny p u s s i e s who blame everyone but themselves for their datelessness (gee, could you be single because you're just a shithead?) I've seen you write some real bull, Moon Fish, but this is one of the more ridiculous (I know, you'll just say it's because I'm fat and personally offended, keep laying the blame...well, you've managed to offend ALL the women on this site with your stupidity). You're a real catch, I can't believe you're still here and you haven't been snapped up by some lucky gal.

This is really depressing stuff:
To those who don't reply ( and have read your message) I'd say they have no manners. It's not like cold calling telephone sales is it?
But that's the wold today F**king rude,
They put their profiles up so, the least they could say is "thanks but no thanks"... that would be a start.
Or they could be realy bold and say, "you are an old boring fart " ( or similar). At least it's a response!

No, despite all the success stories and I haven't calculated the percentages, I don't think POF is going to do anything for me. Or a lot of blokes like me. Not that ugly but once you're fifty plus, it's the knackers yard. You begin to understand why the oldest profession is taking off big time.

Congratulations. You have done what all men have been trying to do since the start of mankind, and that is figure out the female population. You were too quick in giving out your scientific formula, it could have made you a multi-millionaire if you had put it in book form.

If you want all the women you email to reply then all you have to do is....we interupt this post to bring you a new scientific formula.... and the women will be lining up to read your responses.

Perhaps if you learned to talk to women you would get more replies.

bertiedog, I am gonna have to defend my position on returning emails.... If I get an email from someone that I am not interested in then I don't send him an email telling him that. My reasoning is that I personally find it much softer of a blow to not hear back from someone that I have sent an email to (initial email that is) than to get one back letting me know they are not intersted. At least with no response there could be a a variety of reasons, such as they are seeing someone else and want to see how it goes.... I have gotten an email back before saying they were not interested and I would have rather just not had a reply. I mean I usually just forget about that email I sent if I don't hear back anyhow. That's much better than being told they're not interested, at least for me. I am not a rude person. I just think it's easier on the ego is all.... (now after talking awhile or meeting it is completely rude to just leave someone hanging without letting them know)

Well, after posting on and observing the forums over the last few weeks, I am amazed at the amount of whining, finger-pointing, name-calling, stereotyping and generalizations that get flung around. It would make perfect sense to me that those people who are posting in that fashion and saying the rude and piggish things have pretty much answered their own question as to why they don't have any luck on POF. All the women have to do is read your posts and you have already sunk your ship by showing your true colors...and then you complain more and blame the women (or men if is a woman posting in this fashion) and you just dig yourself in deeper. It's not rocket science folks!

Sadly, its true. If a woman replies with a 'sorry not interested' type of response, she will usually get one of the following:

"fine, you stuck up ****!"
(proving she was correct in her decision)

"please please please oh youre so beautiful Ive fallen in love with your picture"
(stalker words)

"why?" followed by more and more demands for explanation.

There are few guys who will just accept a polite "no" and just say "next!".. If you have to push yourself on someone, then it's not meant to be. If you're open and honest and respectful, everyone, not just women, will see that in you. The result is that more people will be open to you. Like attracts like.

Every person, every event, every situation, absolutely everything in your life, you have attracted to yourself by virtue of how you present yourself to the world.

If youre unhappy with the way things are going for you, change something you have control over.

Your attitude.
