Fight, I have NEVER gotten a reply from anyone local. And I didn't do a whole lot of that; just enough to convince me it was a waste of time to write to them.

Once I was here for awhile and had established myself in the forums, people started writing to me. I get lots of e-mail here now. Works better this way, anyway, since I'm basically lazy and would like to save my energy for things other than writing to people who won't respond anyway!

Well it wouldnt have bothered me as much if I didn't take the time and write something heartfelt. She brought up some things that hit close to home with me . Stuff like weight problems and feeling like the 3rd wheel. I really sympathized with that and basically told her I know how she feels and if she wants to talk that I'm here to listen. But now that I think about it she is probably just saying that stuff for attention and that pisses me off.

Fight: Being a woman, I still get the same results from men...no response to my initial contact email..sometimes even with my "matches" who claim they want to meet me. I just keep plugging away. I get the idea about posting on the forums, but usually I dont have a lot of time to sit at the computer and post, and read, and wait for responses...it's not like real time conversations.

I can truthfully say that I ALWAYS send a reply...even if I'm not interested in continuing the conversation. Common courtesy is how I see it.

Plus, I might miss out on someone special... the Lord works in mysterious ways ya know!

how often do i not get a response back?

most of the time, thats why i stopped emailing first

now i only email second, so those who want to tak to me must start a conversation, then that way they feel obligted to finish it, unless their ass*oles
