irc333 Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Okay, with all this talk about online dating, I actually bumped into a woman on a dating site that's actually friends with a friend of mine on Facebook. I did contact her, however, she said "Thanks for the nice email , however, I don't think we'd make a good match" Now, there are times where I do read profiles carefully, and even at times, have seen almost all the qualifications of a good match, even to the most obscure interest in the eclectic, even make note upon them in an email. This was advice I had taken on this site, NOT to sound like a vanilla initial email. Don't say, "Hey, you like kayaking, I like kayaking, too!" But, expound on that, say, "Hey, I noticed you like kayaking, what kind of kayak do yo use, and do you have any favorite park venues in which you like to venture out?" I've done this, only to either not get a response or like I said, "Thanks, but we're not a good match" Typically, I would try to perhaps engage a woman in conversation in order to get her to talk about a particular aspect about a hobby both her and I share, only to not even have her answer my question(s), but only to answer with "Sorry, I don't think we're a match". "But I thought we were a match, that's why I contacted you?" See, it's much easier to blow a person like this off, than to say, hang out with a bunch of friends at a outdoors event, probably bump into the SAME woman...and she fall in love with ya. lol
Casablanca Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 She may not be attracted to you physically and/or if she's gotten a taste of your personality if you two have met she might base it on that. Did you respond to he message? If you did, I wouldnt expect any response as she clearly isnt interested
