Okay so I am a little concerned about scammers, creeps, etc.. so I messgaed a guy whos profile I thought was really nice, loving. He messaged me back a really sweet note(almost overkill) but he explained that he never gets on here and gave me his personal email and hoped that I messaged him. Then I went to view his profile once more and it was deactivated...
I have to tell you that many people say I am very naive.. what do you guys think??

lose it (the email address) and find someone real.

most of the time when anyone tries to get you off of the site, there is a reason. don't wait to find out what that reason is. move on.

If he comes back to email you again on here, tell him this is where you are willing to get to know him. The emails on here work just fine until you are more aquainted with him and more comfortable, willing to share personal information. flowerforyou

This is just too crazy.. so another guy just messaged me and I told him not interested and then and it was deactivated too... WTH.. kinda freaky.

No, not freaky, just scammers and maybe they were just looking for a "hook-up" but when you said 'no' they didn't want to get reported.

I think I am going to deactivate my account and then resign with a different screen name becasue it does have my first name in it.

If his profile was deactivated, the chances are high, that we've banned the account. Never give out your email addy, and never mail anyone, until you have exchanged a few emails here. If you'll be so kind as to mail me the user name, (please don't post it here) I'll look into it.

Thanks,
Mark
