melodymatters Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 Wow ! Backstory is I recently moved, and ended an on and off, LDR, better than nothing for now, R. I finally just cut the cord on that, was bored and figured I'd give the ol' dating sites a try. Picked one randomly, was honest about being 40 and a regular smoker ( my two " downsides" in modern america,lol) posted a candid shot from a chrsitmas party and went out to fish on my dock. An hour later my inbox is friggen full !!! I'm not sure if I should answer everybody, nobody, be picky or what !!! I'm not really asking for advice, as much as sharing the weirdness with my LS buddies. ...AND ladies...If you are lonely or need an ego boost...sheesh !!! I'll let you all know if any actual human dates happen because of this !
alphamale Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 thats funny MM cause about a month ago I posted a fake ad on a free site with initials of CL. I used a pic of a semi-attractive female and wrote a couple sentences (all made up). I made her 38 yrs old and said in the ad she was "desperate" to get married and have kids. hahaha....in just 2 hours there were like 25 responses from guys. hahaha I had to delete the ad cause I was afraid it would crash the server
Author melodymatters Posted May 5, 2007 Author Posted May 5, 2007 Actually alpha, thats funny because I remember you saying you had done that on another thread, and thats part of what made me say " Why not, hell, ALPHA got mail ?" LOL I guess this is one of the areas where the double x chromosone has it easier ! Now to weed through the miscreants, players, pains in the asses, and alpha's ! sigh

Lizzie60 Posted May 6, 2007 Posted May 6, 2007 An hour later my inbox is friggen full !!! This happens all the time... because most of them are just checking the 'new ads' and literally jump on them and that's why you get showered with messages...but after a few days, it slows down. This is typical. I was on some sites about 4 years ago... last week I went back on one of them just for fun... gosh ... I got a lot of messages and guess what? most were from the same freaken losers... LOL

I'll let you all know if any actual human dates happen because of this ! By no means am I taking anything away from how you look and/or your description of yourself that you put down, but do realize that some of those inbox responses are made-up profiles by the people who run the website. They tend to do that to all users of the site so that it keeps them interested in the site and thus continuing to pay the subscription fee. Good luck. I hope that it works out for you.
alphamale Posted May 6, 2007 Posted May 6, 2007 I got a lot of messages and guess what? most were from the same freaken losers... LOL was that really any surprise L60??
