| | How do you show guys your not interested?Page 1 of 1 | When I send messages most girls just ignore me (and that's fine, it lets me know they're not interested), but some girls do reply to my messages and seem to have no interest whatsoever. I ask questions and they just give me answers, without really communicating back or asking any questions themselves. I usually ask a few questions afterword to make sure, but if they continue I just move on. So I guess I have two questions.
1) When a girl only responds to your questions but doesn't ever ask any questions herself, is that her way of saying "I'm not interested"?
2) What are some other ways girls try and let guys know they're not interested? | |

| How do you show guys your not interested? Posted: 6/12/2012 12:19:28 PM | | you answered your own question, when there is a one-worded responses or no response thats it.. other ways happen when you get a date and when you get past the date, when it goes well, you know she is interested by her actions that happen afterwards. However, if you do a search on this forum and look at the "she stopped responding" threads, meaning no returned phone calls, text messages, the debatable "im busy" response.. then you know she is no longer interested, search my "romantic spark" thread, it'll probably also help | |

| How do you show guys your not interested? Posted: 6/12/2012 12:35:13 PM | | Depending on my mood and if I'm feeling generous, I'll answer all my emails. I state in my profile I'm only looking for friends in the settings and in the body of the email. I'm not interested in meeting anyone but I will talk to guys. Then they try to send me their number and I have to tell them to look at my profile again. I don't have to weed people out, they pretty much do the weeding out themselves when they find out I won't meet them. If I really don't want to talk to someone from the get go, I reply with "the fvck do you want?" | |

Posted: 6/12/2012 12:49:43 PM | | If she answers your questions but doesn't ask any questions I would say she is mildly interested and giving you an opportunity to increase her interest. If they are not interested they will either not respond or reply with an email saying they are not interested. | |

| How do you show guys your not interested? Posted: 6/12/2012 6:51:33 PM | | Sometimes when someone asks me a question, I can't be entirely sure if he's expressing interest or just asking a question out of curiosity. I've come across profiles before where maybe I just wanted to ask a guy something but had no interest in actually dating him. So in some of those scenarios, I'd feel weird responding to a genuine question with a variation of "thanks but no thanks". It depends on the read I get from the guy. If I think he's interested in me and I'm not interested, I'll just say so without answering the question. If I think it's just a random question and he's not expressing interest, I'll answer and say nothing else. If I'm not entirely sure but am not interested, I'll answer the question and then let him know I'm not interested. If I actually am interested, he'll get a full reply with questions back at him. | |

What are some other ways girls try and let guys know they're not interested? Pie in the face. No, not muff pie. | |

| How do you show guys your not interested? Posted: 6/12/2012 8:01:04 PM | | It's hard to say. I've had some that were totally clueless when I asked them WTF they were doing on here. They said, "what do you mean?". I said, "I'm asking you questions and you are only giving one word answers". I think this one was just not a good communicator or thought that women didn't need to do much to attract a guy. The last one that was like that, I confronted her and in the morning I wake up to find a very long response saying that she didn't mean for it to sound like she wasn't interested. I've been out with her 3 or 4 times already and it's been great so I guess it really doesn't matter or is impossible to translate. Life is full of surprises. Enjoy it! | |

| How do you show guys your not interested? Posted: 6/12/2012 8:30:44 PM | I don't respond to messages that don't interest me, from dudes that don't interest me. It makes life simpler for everyone, I think. Fortunately I've not run into any of the ragers with the entitlement issues. Hurrah for me! :p
OP, I'd say just decide what you wanna put up with. If a girl's got other qualities that intrigue you, such that you don't make this face: >=( when they respond with one-word answers, by all means keep trying to get the conversation ball rolling. It's hard to assess whether somebody's not interested, or just a bad communicator online or otherwise. | |

| How do you show guys your not interested? Posted: 6/12/2012 8:51:24 PM | No reply seems to be the most common.
I have found when I email someone who is a veteran or was raised by a parent in the military even those who are not interested respond politely out of respect for a what I do in uniform and of a tastefully made attempt to contact someone.
It is what it is.. If you just have to get positive feedback from even those who are not interested and have some confidence and a bit of swagger.. Then step away from the keyboard and try to meet them the old fashioned way. Even in the most high brow places in OC I have never received the kind of curt brush offs that occur on this and other sites. | |

| How do you show guys your not interested? Posted: 6/12/2012 9:21:36 PM | | I never agreed with answering questions when you're not interested. You're giving the other person a sense of false hope. For the first contact, either don't respond or say "No thanks" when you're not interested. | |

Especially when we are young and inexperienced. When a woman is interested in you, you wont have to wonder. If you find yourself wondering....she most likely isnt. | |
