why don't women make first contacts
Posted: 10/14/2009 9:53:24 AM
am the only guy that don't get first contacts from the ladies ? well,,,i get one once in a blue moon but they seldom have a pic or written a essay so i'm leery of replying to them.
is it because they get soooo many e-mails from the guys that they don't feel the need to make first contact ? or is it because they think they are gods gift to men and think they are simply "too good" to do it?
either way,,,let me ask you a question,,, what if MR.RIGHT never mails you.
had you rather just sit and wait on him to mail you or swallow your pride and send him a note to let him know your interested ? a simple "" HI ,HOW ARE YA" would be sufficient.
i can't speak for all guys but its beginning to give me a complex. am i really that ugly,
or uninteresting ? the ladies i have met in person say i'm the most polite and well mannered guy they have ever went out with. and i don't think i'm "THAT" hard on the eyes to look at. ( no brad pitt, i'll admit) but i've never broken a mirror by looking in it..lol

any of you ladies care to commit on this ? i'd love to hear what you have to say.

How much you willing to lose? I contacted 2 guys, was not forward, just a friendly email hoping to start a conversation and both were read and deleted. Oops! I should have bet first before telling. Are there any serious men on here?

I have it posted on my profile that I want the man to make the first contact.I do that because just as men do,women get rejected.I myself do not like the feeling of rejection.Therefore I let the man make the first move.

I will come clean and admit that I have contacted a few(very few) men on POF to just say hey.I only do that very rarely though.I guess us southern gals may be more shy.I tend to shy away from rejection(as I stated before)

well Rita,, some men (including myself) don't like rejection either. but i have to take a chance every now and then if i want to find a nice lady to date.


i use to write a nice e-mail to the ladies i was interested in, a couple of paragraphs...
long enough to get their attention, hoping to get a response. i'll have to admit, it really bothered me to put a lot of thought into a e-mail only to see that they deleted it without reading it.
now i just say ""hi how ya" . i have wasted enough time writing things they never read or don't care about. and some women can be very rude if they answer it at all.
sometimes i want to write them back and cuss them out...but what good would that do?LOL
