I'm on match now since Friday of last week. I've gotten a few photo "likes" (a total of 25) not counting the ones from suspicious profiles. But so far, a grand total of 0 women replied to any of my e-mails. I honestly don't know what I'm doing wrong. I need some advice. Nobody seems interested in e-mailing me back, not even the people who "liked" my photos or "winked" at me. I know they're reading my e-mails... it says they do. Here are a few:

 

1. I see we have some similar interests, math and Whole Foods to name just a few.

 

2. I'm new to this online dating thing. It seems a bit strange and even awkward despite the nature of online dating, I guess because I've never done it before. I decided the best way to act here is the same way as in real life, with strategic impulsiveness. So here I am messaging you :) I think we might have something in common, for example I too have an interest in music and have thought about making my own. I frequently think about how songs I hear could be made better for example. What kind of music do you work with?

3. There are things we have in common and there are things we don't. For example, when I see spiders, bees, wasps or dragon-flies, I usually run towards them. Darwin type stuff really excites me. Then on the other hand, I'm extremely patient (like you) and (possibly unlike you) overly nice and overly courteous (by today's society's standards anyway). Some would say I should have been born in an earlier age because of my tendency, to some people's annoyance, to hold doors and such. I like how you mentioned ducks in your profile, that's also in my profile. Well, as you can see, I'm just a below-average guy (looks-wise) trying his best.

 

4. I'm new to this online dating thing, I'm still learning the unwritten rules, so I apologize for any awkwardness, but I decided the best way to act here is the same as in real life, with strategic impulsiveness. So here I am messaging you :) Based on your description, I think you might know some cool hang out spots downtown. I'm there frequently this summer. Anyway, you probably won't reply so Viel Glück!

 

I assumed you are of German descent, forgive me if I'm wrong.

 

5. I noticed you mentioned movies in your profile. What kind of movies do you watch? My personal favorites are Jane Austen adaptations, or really anything dealing with Britain during that time period.

 

Hey, we share a birth month!

 

6. How's it going? I noticed you checked out my profile the other day. I'm glad you did, it's been sort of slow lately. I just read your profile and I think we might have a few things in common. I don't cook often either, but when I do I try to make it memorable. I enjoy cooking for my family and friends. Recently I decided to make a few Balkan dishes. They have some really good recipes over there, some of the food would be really popular in America if only more people knew about it.

 

What sort of food do you usually make?

 

I try to be kind, I try to mention stuff from their profile, I try to be modest/shy, I can't seem to get it.

 

Please help.
