repeat 1000 times
Done

I think men understands how this effects them so any woman who contact them will not get the same treatment. Ladys go for it!

you guys notice NO women are posting in here anymore? I had one email me and say " you guys are just whining and being negative" So I chalk it up to her having a bad attitude???

lol, love it when a woman contacts me first, means I do not have to worry about is she interested in talking, I already know she is unless of course she is saying something nasty, then it just gets deleted.

MrWrong, I'm really sorry for the responses you've had, but I get the same treatment. And I don't think I'm unattractive either, in fact I'm damn cute. I've been wanting to add to my profile, because it's a little sparse, but I wonder if it's really worth it. Can't a girl get some love?

I really Like it..!!
Especially if I've been leaving *Hints* that I'd like to talk with her, but can't .. because
of her 'Must-Not' list . . !
We all have our different Likes and Dislikes . .
I'd like to think that I appeal to someone that I haven't yet discovered . .

no not one thing wrong with that cause it shows your intrest in him...as for me i will write a short letter saying hi and leave it up to the woman to contact me back...if she don't well then you know she is not interested in you...or she wants to be chased...but i don't chase woman cause communication is like tennis...you have to hit the ball back in order to play.

I'd love to have a woman contact me first.

All I get are the read/deletes or unread on all my messages.

I think a lot of men here would be more happy here if more women made first contact with the men here since most of the time a man makes first contact with the women, its unsuccessful.

PoF is definitely a place where women can be terribly overwhelmed by creepers and guys messaging them for sexual encounters. Instead of complaining that this is all the attention they're getting, they should step up and fire off a few messages of their own. It might be encouraging to the many good, non-slimy men on here...

It's JUST talking, afterall. :)

Back in school, I was always at parties. I had my eye on a few women and out of left field came a pass from this chick I hadn't noticed. God damn we had fun.

We only have two eyes and can't see everyone. So hell ya.. contact me. lol

Just make sure not to crack some stupid joke, and scare them away....I tend to do that...


LOL at/with Red! No sh*t, eh? Mea culpa. (I even put it in my profile about "my wacky poet/horror writer sense of humour" to kind of warn them ... )

It's nice to see that you men recognize how difficult it is for some of us women to do the initial approach. I have been learning aaaaall about rejection.

( I have learned what rejection is all about)

Rejection is something that man has been living with for centuries.
Women rarely go through what we go through,and those hurt.
But over time we have learned to accept it,and go on.

Realy it is about time you ladies get a taste of what we have being through.

Hi kansasgirl07
I prefer a girl to make first contact
It might sound a bit narcissistic but it makes me feel that they are interested in me, also I have had little to no luck getting a reply from people I try to break the ice with.
Bah, but that is fishing for you

I have no problem with a woman being the first to make contact. Most that email me first comment about something in my profile info most of the time.

I think that a girl should feel that contacting a guy first is OK. Why would any one be freaked out?

I think its alright for a girl to contact a guy first, couldn't hurt right? After all it's usually the guy that does that stuff. If a girl really likes the guy and wants to get to know him, then by all means go ahead! But I dont think there are too many girls that are like that, mostly if not always they wait for a guy to contact them. I guess thats just how it is in society, kinda sucks really . . .

Not that I'm looking, but I would rarely contact a woman I liked.

I'd let them contact me, because women can't make up their minds.

In any event 95% of the women in here are not serious anyway.

A guy would have to be a fool to think he'd meet a woman in here.

It just isn't going to happen.

--You know what happens ...'...when you Snooze..'...Right??--
As long as the Lady doesn't just send a 'Hi there!' note . . it's fine!
If she's interested enough to write...she should make enough effort
to say what about me she likes .. or what caught her attention . . !!
I made enough effort in my profile to avoid the standard :
...' I live life to the Fullest'...'My cup is Half-full'...'I'm the Outdoorsy type'...
