Many people view an email as a form of interest, whether you mean it that way or not. Some people can exchange casual emails and it goes smoothly, no misunderstandings, no hurt feelings, just casual chit chat about nothing special, but some people can't. Some of them actually believe if you answer their emails, you WANT them, no matter what your profile says. For those of you who will say "it's common courtesy" to answer, that might be true, but I'd rather temporarily hurt someone's feelings (it's the internet, you'll get over it) than have to block someone because he became a stalker/got rude/or just made me freaking uncomfortable. It's a rare person who can send an email, get a polite response back and let it go. I don't find that often, unfortunately. Yep. 
 great minds....
Or cynical minds.
I'm gonna go with cynical for you 2....

It really is just realistic, realistically speaking...if I don't want someone to respond, I will not contact them. Whereas if I do want someone to respond, I will contact them. They don't respond, they're not interested. Simple really. The problem is that people get emotional...on the internet, which is like losing it when Megatron fails to be fully functional when all of the Transformers combine forces... |

That's what I said earlier; I'm sure internet feelings heal rather quickly, if not, they should. |

I have learned that finding a date when it comes to online dating is letting alot of people get to know you. Typing a lengthy profile can actually be positive and turn up great results, all depending on the honesty, maturity, purpose, and thought behind it. Also, putting yourself out there and talking in the forums and conversing with people does wonders, because it helps people get to know you. I hear everyone put down the Mutual Match system on here, but I actually found out that by going through it, it can turn positive results. After finding someone you like through searching, conversing in the forums, or through Mutual Match, it is always positive to send them a message and let them know they caught your interest and to tell them if your profile interests them, for them to feel free to message you. By having actually put something into your profile, it will help when it comes to finding someone online. However, there will still be more work on your part when it comes to the person being interested and that's communication. This same process works offline just as much as online. That's getting to know and flirting with the person you're interested in helps so much. And letting them get to know you after you catch their interest by asking them out for conversation or even a date so that you can get to know one another better.
If a person is unwilling to get to know you, would you really want to be with them? |

Eh, the opposite is true for mine. When I have my art photos up I get the mutual matching and repeated views (obviously they bookmarked it, ewww) and nudges (ewwwwwww), but when I have my real pics up I get nothing. So I'm posting my real pics to keep the pervs off my page.

Sooner or later the right person will view your profile. Then he's gonna nudge you, bookmark you, and mutual match you hoping you message him because he's shy and then you're gonna think he's a perv and not message him! |
