"I don't spend a lot of time sitting on the couch watching tv"

5 lines later "I love to cuddle on the couch watching TV" :confused:

 

Also in my 3 months I only actually met 3 women but the one's I emailed or talked to on the phone winked or emailed me first & I swear they didn't even read my profile because they were asking me stuff the is clearly in my profile.

I mean it's like a paragraph long.

 

Oh that's another thing, women with a profile as long as War & Peace. Seriously?

I'm not reading all that.

Is there some hidden language here? What is this OLD reference being used over and over here on replies?

Prolly posted already, but I hate those self pictures of standing in front of the mirror holding their phone/camera. Is is that hard to setup a 30sec timer and get a decent self pic of yourself if need be? Also hate seeing 90% of someone's pics being of just their pet.

I hate detailed generic emails.

 

" Hey, my name is Tom. I am a mechanic. I like to build things. I like your profile and would love to get to know you. Tell me a little about yourself

. Are you currently working or go to school? Also, what do you like to do for fun?

 

Looking forward to hearing from you."

 

Times like this I really want to just copy and past my profile.

Off the top of my head:

 

  • Textspeak and poor grammar/spelling throughout first message (the odd typo is fine)
  • Not providing any evidence that they've read my profile
  • Talking about sex in the first conversation
  • Ignoring preferences stated in my profile
  • Asking for pictures straightaway
  • Sending numerous messages despite getting a "thanks, but no thanks"
  • Being a jerk after a "thanks, but no thanks"
  • Venting and complaining during the early conversations (especially about OLD and how they've had no luck)
  • Getting names wrong
  • Not being responsive enough or sending too many messages very early on
  • Naked pictures on profile or sending me naked pictures :eek:
  • Pushing for a meeting or to exchange contact details too early without getting to know me first > being too pushy in general
  • Stalking behaviour

 

 

Well some of the things you listed is your fault. Instead of sending a guy a THANKS you shouldn't reply at all. And don't give me that crap about a guy not making it obvious they read your profile because if there is no attraction it don't matter whether they read your profile or not

Reading your OLD message, without actually ever looking at your profile. It just goes to show they are completely shallow and are basing everything on looks.

 

UH, it's called Online Dating so everything will be based on LOOKS-lol
