IMHO. You are very attractive. That is not the problem. You are curvy woman's woman. A LOT of guys are attracted to that.

You could phrase things better. Like instead of saying you don't need someone to take care of you. AND DON'T GO INTO THE INDEPENDENT WOMAN WHO NEEDS NO ONE MODE EITHER because that's a turn off to my guy friends. State what you are proficient at. What your strong suits are, etc.

And don't say if they don't like children to move on but instead say something about how you are attracted to MEN WHO ARE GOOD WITH CHILDREN.

I don't really get into it so much but realize you are absolutely marketing yourself as a commodity on here. 100%. And you are your own best advocate and fan club.

In marketing, the best marketing, is positive. WHY YOU AS A COMMODITY ARE DESIRABLE. Not why others are not.

I mean if you were a box of Corn Chex and the whole box boded of the inferiority of Smackle Puffs and Lucky Charms but said nothing about how yummy and nutritious Corn Chex were, why would anybody pick you off the shelf??

Just a thought.

Thank you Terri, advice well given. I'll take a look at my profile again.

They just look at my profile and move on. I was wondering, should I send an email just to see what they didn't find interesting? What do you guys think?


Do you ever return the look? read their profile? Perhaps there may be answers there.


No, I don't return looks. I figure if they looked and didn't leave a message they weren't interest. After all, when I view a guys profile and I don't leave a message it's because something tell me in his profile I'm not what he's looking for.

I give the nudge if I come across someone that seems interesting. However I got talking to someone last night, long story short I gave my MSN (stupid I know) and well I'll tell you it didn't turn out so good. We didn't talk for 2 minutes on MSN and he was straight in there looking for me to '' send pictures''. I won't be jumping straight in there again in a hurry, lesson learned!!

Sounds like you've already made up your mind on how to deal with the situation. What was the reason for the thread if you already made up your mind?

I get tons of them wanting me to contact them on Yahoo. Red flag. They are ALWAYS scammers.

As for nudges, my policy is to ignore them unless they come from someone I know in the forums. The last 75,818 nudges from strangers that I answered, all turned out to be scammers.

I'm not saying there aren't nudgeworthy people on this site -- there most definitely are. I'm just saying my own selection skills are poor enough that I'm quite sure I would pick the wrong ones, were I ever to send a first nudge. Which I don't.

If I actually wanted to contact someone first (which I never do anymore), I would send them a legitimate message, with words and commas and stuff. Because I like the idea of offering some content, something to read, something to work with. Nudges just seem a little too impersonal and meaningless to me for a first contact. But I'm kind of stuck in the whole "writer says words is good" mentality.

Good to know its not just me. Sending a small message hopefully won't scare them away. Then again maybe it will. Then it gets in the way of the man chasing. Luck of the draw.

I find that a lot of people on dating sites (both men and women) don't always know what to say. So someone looking at your profile and not sending you a message immediately doesn't necessarily mean they aren't interested or wouldn't respond to you. They could either be trying to decide what to say, or hoping you'd see that they looked and will contact them.

So, take a look at their profiles and see if there's anything interesting about them. If so, contact away!

what if you are only basic4 or grape nuts?ohwell


LOL. Grapenuts HAS THE SUPERIOR MARKETING TEAM. They have THE BRAND NAME visibility. I would be willing to bet more people buy the Grapenuts.


If their marketing team was to superior I'd think they'd change the name. C'mon now.....grape nuts.... Just buying them gives me the same uneasy feeling as eating a banana in public......


hpw about a banana in your bowl of grapenuts???bigsmile

I do it all the time.

Of course, when I check out a female's profile and don't sayanything, it's usually solely because they stated something that forbid me from bothering.

i.e.: Only people under 21.

Non-smokers only.

Devil worshippers.

Those with small pen****.

After all, that is against the rules here at Mingle.
