orangelady Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Seriously, each time I write to a guy on a dating site, he'd not reply. Is something wrong with the way my profile is? I wonder why? Only one guy responded out of 20-30 emails I wrote and that one guy says he is interested in another girl in real life and after a while, he stopped writing. I have made my profile quite funny, simple and I didn't gender bash. Hmm?
BeginAgain Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Did you include a photo? Where is your profile? Can I view it?
Author orangelady Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 Most of the guys on there are two timing sums of a bitches looking to rape their next hot piece of ass. They have no time for decent, nice woman like you. Sigh..................thanks BLT. Can I have a free BLT please? No mayo and ketchup.
BeginAgain Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Don't give it to them, Orangelady...This person is a bitch. There is no harm in giving it to me. I like orangelady, we don't even live close together, and I still bet her very negative assessment on her beauty is a crock of sht. But sorry you don't like me besides I'm male.

I like orangelady, we don't even live close together, and I still bet her very negative assessment on her beauty is a crock of sht. But sorry you don't like me besides I'm male. I just went to the mall today. At the mall, all women look so much more beautiful than yourself. I think I'm gonna cut down on my mall visits. BeginAgain, I don't think you're a bad person, but sometimes you do blurt out stuff that is beyond my comprehension and maybe you have a very strange sense of humor (e.g about the fresh meat joke) and maybe...maybe I don't get it, but I hope to. But MOST times, I do understand you. And take it as a compliment, I think you're pretty interesting and articulate but there's something there...I just can't put my finger to it.

Leeway Harris Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 orangelady, if you figure out how to get responses on the online dating sites, please let me know. I'll be your business manager, and we can make billions of dollars together. Your openness about this is really refreshing, by the way. Sometimes we men get the idea that we're the only ones who constantly get ignored in the dating world, especially the online one. One in twenty responses sounds about like my success rate when I had a profile up. And of those, very few led to actual meetings. It just made me feel bad about myself. So I stopped doing it.

I'd understand why. You feel like something's really wrong with you. But this other lady on this post http://www.loveshack.org/forums/showthread.php?p=3336637&posted=1#post3336637 said that we should be thicker skinned. It's the same as real life, we email, if they don't email back, too bad, move on. I think she has a point. I can't believe you're in New York and you can't find someone. *drops her jaws wide open*
Leeway Harris Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 I can't believe you're in New York and you can't find someone. *drops her jaws wide open* It's like I told you before, just because there are millions of people here doesn't mean it's any easier to make connections. People keep to themselves more, because the sheer volume of the place is so overwhelming. The effect of having so many people to choose from is canceled out by the effect of everyone building these protective walls around themselves. Didn't you say you're from a big city yourself?

The effect of having so many people to choose from is canceled out by the effect of everyone building these protective walls around themselves. Didn't you say you're from a big city yourself? Yeah, true that. But I think that's still better than a small town where you may not have many girls your age and options are limited. Yeah I do but my country is MUCH smaller than yours, so numbers are different and numbers ARE important. Aren't you on meetup.com? I saw many singles meetup groups in NY. So many!! And they are so active.
Leeway Harris Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Yeah, true that. But I think that's still better than a small town where you may not have many girls your age and options are limited. Not only that, but if you ask somebody out, you're the talk of the town for a week. In New York you have total anonymity. So, you take the good with the bad. Yeah I do but my country is MUCH smaller than yours, so numbers are different and numbers ARE important. You've been pretty cryptic about the country you're from, orangelady. Are you Dutch? You're Dutch, aren't you? Aren't you on meetup.com? I saw many singles meetup groups in NY. So many!! And they are so active. Yes, the next step is actually attending one. Still working on it.
BeginAgain Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Also nyc is a model mecca. orangelady is a Brit.

So, you take the good with the bad. I never thought of that. You've been pretty cryptic about the country you're from, orangelady. Are you Dutch? You're Dutch, aren't you? No, not Dutch. I've learned enough not to expose too much about yourself because there are lots of racists online. Yes, the next step is actually attending one. Still working on it. "working on it?" what's there to work? Just sign up, join and show up. lol the difficult part is the showing up part
Author orangelady Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 Also nyc is a model mecca. orangelady is a Brit. erm, nope, BA.
BeginAgain Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 erm, nope, BA. British American? So you are in America?
Leeway Harris Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 British American? So you are in America? I think "BA" is "BeginAgain", as in, she was talking to you.
Author orangelady Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 I think "BA" is "BeginAgain", as in, she was talking to you. YES! BA are your initials, BeginAgain. Thanks LH.
BeginAgain Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 YES! BA are your initials, BeginAgain. Thanks LH. I forgot you have done that in the past. Too much acronym usage here. Makes my head spin.
westernxer Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Online dating is all about the pics! At least when it comes to initial contact.
BeginAgain Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Online dating is all about the pics! At least when it comes to initial contact. So you are saying the donkey punch is the ticket to win it?
WTRanger Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 It also depends on what site you are on. If it's a free site, your response rate is zero to less than zero.
westernxer Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 So you are saying the donkey punch is the ticket to win it? Whatever it takes.
Author orangelady Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 I forgot you have done that in the past. Too much acronym usage here. Makes my head spin. I know. There's a link on the FAQ page which gives you all the acronyms. I didn't even know what "NC" or "MM" was. I don't remember all of them yet partly because I never got the chance to be in a relationship to use "NC" (No Contact) or "MM" (Married Man).

NC was obvious to me but I hadn't even come across MM yet.
