I usually bring it up, tell them that this conversation seems to be pretty one sided, are you interested in getting to know anything about me? It will either be a wakeup call for them and they will realize it or they get butthurt and don't message you back. The women who are interested will start asking you questions, if they weren't that interested in the first place they will get butt hurt and not reply back. | |

Posted: 5/30/2012 9:17:11 PM | | Lol I feel your pain man. I've even had a woman message me first with the classic one or 2 word message yet I saw in her profile that she likes a guy to send her a good message. That's just how it works man. These women have about 20 guys they're talkin to all at the same time and they can't keep up with it all. If I start getting those messages from a woman I start sending similar messages back to her. | |

Posted: 5/30/2012 9:31:47 PM | | If youre interested in a conversation, generally you would participate with more than one word answers. Some people send one word answers hoping the other person gets the hint that they are not interested or trying to give the other party a chance to make it interesting if they have not succeeded in doing that yet. | |

We are usually waiting for you to start talking about sex or in some way acting rude and inappropriate. 99% of "nice" messages end up that way. So, give her some time to respond. Show her you are a decent guy. She might warm up to you. But please remember we get mostly obnoxious messages and have become very cautious about who we talk to. | |

Posted: 5/30/2012 10:56:32 PM | Agree with justajack, ask open ended questions.
Also, I've noticed that I sometimes do that. I actually stopped in the middle of a conversation and said "I'm sorry, I feel like we're only talking about me! Let's switch this around for a while." and bombarded him with questions.
If she likes you enough, she'll put in the effort. | |

Posted: 5/31/2012 5:33:17 AM | | Ask a one word question - get a one word answer. I always respond in kind. Ask or say something interesting and worth responding to - I will respond accordingly. Send me a "hi how are you" and I will respond with "fine and yourself?"; send me a sexual suggestion/reference/whatever - I might respond this time but the conversation is essentially over (if you tell me you are 7" or 8" or something - I will respond by asking how do you reach to the keyboard, being so short) | |

Posted: 5/31/2012 11:00:34 AM | So when you women do actually respond to a message,is it so hard to try and put some effort into the conversation? They do when they are interested. Thats your clue. I swear most the guys whine because they get no replies. You get brief ones that go nowhere as they are not interested and you STILL complain.
Why respond to someone with a one word answer? To shutup all the whiners complaining they dont reply.
Seems like it happens more often than not on here. Then perhaps it is your messaging. I very VERY rarely have this happen. If they are putting no effort into it then assume they really have no interest.
You cant MAKE women that are not interested write long replies. But YOU on the other hand can hopefully grasp they obviously have no real interest.

Posted: 5/31/2012 11:08:32 AM | It's because they have no more interest than to give you a one word answer. This is getting nuts, why do so many people want to control how others answer (or don't answer) a contact? When people act in a way you don't like, move on, leave them alone, stop trying to control the universe....they aren't interested and more importantly, you aren't interested in them since all you have is complaints about them. Geeze!
When you don't like someone's behavior, it means you won't like them. At what point do you come up with the crazy idea that instead of just weeding them out and moving you, you instead think you need to complain about them and make them change their ways???? | |

Posted: 5/31/2012 11:08:49 AM | Women like to think you have actually looked at their profile and not just their pics! Ask them something about what they have written about themselves, you may find you get better replies.
However there are quite a few rude people on here who do not reply, not even with a 'thanks but I don't think we are a match' type thing. It's put me off messaging that's for sure.
Oh and also the 'Hi babe how r u' type of messages aren't usually appreciated ;) | |

An interested woman doesn't risk losing a good opportunity by being obtuse.
Women love to yap endlessly so I find one word answers hard to believe. Who knew they had the self control. I'm sure in person it's another story.
I read your history and it's essentially the same women-bashing post over and over. Or more concisely: zzzzzzz. | |

Posted: 5/31/2012 11:58:18 AM | Technically, it's called a monologue, conversations involve two people...but I digress.
Some are better at conversation, but if you want to have success at dating, improving on your conversational skills would be a big boost. I've had lots of time where his side is a few grunts, and then I find myself basically...talking to myself. That's always epic fail.
I think your conversational compatability is a decent indication on how well you'll get along. If talking with someone doesn't flow rather naturally and easily it's not likely to evolve into any type of serious relationship. | |
