I have never failed to answer an email... it only takes a second and even to say no thanks is the best way to go JMO...and if no email...dang...no relationships or friendships...you can meet people in the forums, but very hard to sustain a relationship that way I see your point, but the forums seem like a more relaxed atmosphere to start talking to someone. I just don't know how to respond and feel a bit in the corner when most email contact say things like... mail: just thought I'd say hi mail: check me out and let me know if you like me mail: your profile gives me a woody mail: do you wanna meet me? let me know. I do not know how to respond to these things. Simple....if it is offensive to you...do not respond...simply block the user and if it is graphic...report them...if they say hi...say hi back...if they ask if you like them...let them know you don't know them and use your own discretion as far as blocking AND THEN....you can always let them know that you are only looking for friends...those that are okay with that will stay...if they want more...they will move on...you will learn as you go and it does get easier

Answer: uuuhhmmmmmmmm.............no I do not know how to respond to these things. Short emails....Short answers......then block the rude ones.

mail: just thought I'd say hi Hi back. mail: check me out and let me know if you like me No thanks, I'm just here to post in the forums. mail: your profile gives me a woody Block user mail: do you wanna meet me? let me know. I don't know you. My mom told me not to talk to strangers. JMO I guess I need to cultivate a little more patience for this kind of thing. Email replies would not take so long if I didn't go back and forth so much as to what to say. Hopefully this will come with more experience as well. Thanks so much for the tips. I did not come here to be rude or offend anyone, so I do want to respond. I just don't know what I'm doing yet. This helps a lot. Thanks everyone!

You are welcome. Give what you get, but follow the Golden Rule. It really is just that simple.

I respond to all emails. I think it is rude if someone doesn't respond, especially if you sent something nice and not rude (which I don't send rude emails). Mine are mostly....goofy.
