bayouboi Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I sent an email to a girl I found attractive on a dating site and she read it and looked at my profile, but didn't respond. So I sent a follow-up acknowledging that she looked at my profile, asked her if she liked what she saw, then made a little more small talk about her profile and things we had in common. Still no response. Here's why I have a question. Usually the no-responders just Read-Delete my e-mails. No big deal. But why would someone read the e-mail, but not delete it if they aren't interested? ;o
Bejita463 Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 If they are interested, they will reply. Whatever they choose to do with the email you sent is irrelevant.
sagetalk Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 You could message 100 women and only 5 might reply. It just depends on what you look like and what your profile says, and the quality of your photos. Don't even think about her in any serious manner until you are talking on the phone and setting up a time to meet. You'll keep your sanity this way believe me.
meerkat stew Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 A majority of people on dating sites aren't truly available for dating or a relationship, very recent divorcees, recent breakups, looking for greener grass, married and being naughty, etc. Get used to this type of behavior in online dating from women. Take the average privileged attitude you would get from beautiful young women out in a club and multiply it by 3 (due to anonymity, 10 x men as women, etc.) to get the attitude of the -average- woman on a dating site, let alone the top profiles. If you can just accept this as a given reality, you will do much better online.
adamt Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 i've been on a couple of internet dates recently. sometimes we talk about the dating website. The general concensus from the women i've met is that they get loads of emails everyday(a lot more than the men do) one girl i met got about 30 a day. they cant respond to them all and some of the emails will freak them out. take a no response as a polite "no thank you". my method is to add them as a favourite and if they add me back then send them a hello email and take an interest in their profile write up. I feel that is the best way not to invade their privacy/space. sometimes we add each other and for some reason they dont reply. another girl i met we got on well, were going to meet up again but onpurposely hasnt read my email since. just take things with a pinch of salt until you reach a 3rd date with the same person. try not to come across to stalkerish and dont take it too serious or personal. just be easy going and be honest.
