I've sent out 10 messages to women I think I can connect with and none of them have written back. That was my experience, too. I started getting messages from all kinds of people after I had been posting in the forums for awhile. And all of it was them writing to me first. Do most women just assume that all guys on this site are sleazy and are very picky who they write back to, or do they just like recieving messages with no intention to write back. I don't know the answer to this one. It's clear that a lot of the women here are really down on men in general (and vice versa) but it's by no means a universal condition. I just want to know if I am wasting my time on this site. If you're OK with participating in the forums and letting people get to know you through your posts, you'll make friends here. Just seems to me that people who DON'T use the forums are basically going to remain forever anonymous -- no one even knows they are here, unless they happen to stumble over their profile in a search or something. And a lot of profiles are so poorly written that they offer no incentive for anyone to wantr to contact that person. To me, the forums are the key to getting noticed here. |

You can always improve your technique and what you write to them, but at the end of the day its a numbers game, just keep on trying and you will get there. 'blind emailing' like that is tough and i could never be bothered with it. But post in these threads and you will be seen by a whole load of women, and you will naturally get talking to them. The forums is the easy way. Dan's right. Just post in the forums and then you can even strike up conversations there. That way if you decide to private message them, they know who you are (from the forum) and it will be easier to strike up a conversation by private message. Also be aware that there are a LOT of males on this site. Men normally tend to be the sexual aggressors on the internet in the sense that they are the ones who primarily are making the first moves and sending the emails. If there is no spark or physical interest there based on your photos, then no real reason to respond. Post on the forums and that way someone will take notice of you. Worked out for me. Good luck. |

Do most women just assume that all guys on this site are sleazy and are very picky who they write back to, or do they just like recieving messages with no intention to write back. I just want to know if I am wasting my time on this site. YOU young man ... are adorable~ first off.

Make sure you have put enough information in your own profile. as well. Because we look before we reply. |
