DO NOT INCLUDE ANY EMAIL ADDRESSES IN YOUR MESSAGE. THE ENTIRE MESSAGE WILL BE BLOCKED AND YOU WILL WONDER WHY THE PERSON YOU MESSAGED DIDN'T RESPOND. I SENT OUT MESSAGES TO A FEW WOMEN AND GOT NO RESPONSE FROM THEM. IN THE MEANTIME THEY HAD RESPONDED AND WERE WAITING FOR A RETURN RESPONSE. I NEVER RECEIVED YOUR MESSAGE. NEITHER WILL ANYONE ELSE IF YOU ADDED YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS.

That's an important rule of using this system because certain people set up false profiles and wait for a new member to register, then they come on strong as if they're certain the member is very lonely and they say something like "let's exchange email addresses and pictures so we can get to know each other better." And that's all it takes for predatory people to begin their big lie that they hope will persuade a lonely person to send money to help them get through a fictitious problem somewhere. It's all about a ripoff. The forum posts a letter at the top that must first be read, and this rule can't be emphasized enough because the predatory types will continue. When I signed up yesterday, within 10 minutes I was contacted by two (the only two contacts!) who wanted my email address and were already calling me "dear" and telling me how important love is to them and they will protect me. Such malarkey manipulative attempts it's sad.

I don't like it when they call me pet names. I think it's rude.
