Am I missing something or are my settings wrong or what? Why don't men post any thoughts in the forums that have emailed me from here on POF???? It just really occured to me not one has ever put anything in the forums. Are men just by nature that way? Why don't guys check out the forums?

Give it time.
Some guys read my last 5 posts on my page and comment to me about them and never post in the threads.

lol, I love the forums. They give me something to laugh about

Maybe they have busy lives, or just don't feel like sharing their 2 cents?

3) They've given up and want to make sure others are unsuccessful by giving them bad advice.



I see that all over on here. Like this one girl was with a guy while he was unemployed, he got a job and left her, lost his job, and is trying to get her back.. Now she's "confused" (lol) and one guy tells her "hey, he obviously loves you, I would take him back in a heartbeat!"

Okay, just came back to check the thread and under my post it has a box where you can check a reason for having my thread deleted. I hope I didn't disobey the rules, I just wanted to know why guys don't. It is a way of getting to know him. It shows who the guys are that aren't scared to take a chance by showing their true colors. Is it all just about seeing what girls will respond without really trying?

They say only 1% of the users here on POF actually use the forums.
Some people just aren't curious I guess.

Heh, I'm here more for the forums than for dating. Besides, I don't seem to find any of the women that have anything interesting in their posts are closer than 800 miles from me

I will just keep quiet and go about my business of getting layed.
Words only complicate the task.
Amazing how talkative a man will get once he gets a bite...

Surfgyrl I see you haven't posted in a year. You must be taking care of business like your last post suggests. Getting back to the original posting I thought the same thing about many of the women checking out my profile. They don't have any posts as well. I wondered if they were hiding or if they are just too busy with replies to take the time to post in the forums.

I look at the forums much, much more than I look at profiles.
1) I am probably much more likely to email someone who posts I read and liked, than someone whose profile I read and liked.
2) You list sex as an interest. So a LOT of men who are interested in that will email you, and they are interested in sex, not discussions, and hence not the forums.
3) You have a lot of interests that are active and action-oriented. So you will more likely attract action men, not talkers.

If you want someone with a mind, add that to your profile, and post some more.

Some people who post in the forums have legitimate questions. The rest are just attention seekers.

Not all people are into the forums or are aware of them. Actually it took me a while to participate.

From what I have seen on TV.. people in prison can post a profile on a dating site but they cannot particiapte in forum activity. maybe thats your answer?

Some people don't use the forums, or any forums, for that matter.

you could always invite them to the forums? tell them you want to get to know them and what better way than to see them answer and participate in adult chat.

Once they get disgruntled, disappointed or simply are dying of boredom, they'll end up here with the rest of us.

Feel good about that OP, if I get mail from anyone not associated with forums, I sit and stare at it, like when Charlie got the golden ticket in the Wonkabar. It does seem that once you become a routine poster ~ not many others email. I don't know why that is ~ and it could be just in my case, nevertheless that is my perception.

What do you mean?.......I see many guys in the forums.

My theory is that good guys soon learn that the dating aspect of this site is mostly games...not worth much effort .
The good guys mostly do forums.

I'm totally guessing, but I wouldn't be surprised if only 2% of the people with profiles use the forums.

So SingleGuy... since that^^^^ is not a question, I assume you are one of the attention seekers.

Count me among that rapidly growing 2%. Besides my profile, I know men and women read my posts. I get a lot of email regarding something I have written. Some good, some bad, but hey....any publicity is good publicity if that is what you're after.
Personally I always find the Forums in general a great source of amusement.
Any man I contact, I always read his posts to get an idea of where his common sense (or insanity) lies.
