irc333 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Why on earth not? It doesn't hurt to at least chat with someone. Well, that's refreshing! Good for you! I'm getting sick of seeing, "If I don't respond, it means I am not interested" in their profile. Get over yourself (not you, Phoe, the one who wrote that in their profile, lol)
Emilia Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 You girls respond to every message? Even I don't do that . I doubt anyone does since so many are outright creepy. Why would anyone want to chat with a creep? Don't believe everything you read on an anonymous messaging board 1
Revolver Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 You can pretty much gauge your level of attractiveness (as a male) by how well you do with online dating, which is likely the truth since it's completely based on looks (whereas, offline, other things may play into attraction a bit such as personality, character, and intelligence).
insert_name Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 You can pretty much gauge your level of attractiveness (as a male) by how well you do with online dating, which is likely the truth since it's completely based on looks (whereas, offline, other things may play into attraction a bit such as personality, character, and intelligence). Not necessarily, OLD can provide 'false negatives' in that sense. Eg in the city i live in i very rarely get any tinder matches, OLD profile visits or OLD profile likes. Its been a suspicion of mine that girls round here have a stick up their ass and my looks arent that bad. Lo and behold recently i went back to my home city for the weekend and my phone was blowing up with tinder matches, my standards hadnt changed, there was just more interest. And yesterday i travelled to a nearby city, checked my OLD profile and totally missed that the GPS had recalibratsd on it. When i got home that evening, again the account was blowing up with profile views and profile likes from attractive girls. Now im back in the city where im currently living and i can hear the crickets chirping and see the tumbleweed rolling about on my OLD profile. So i wouldnt read too much into OLD being a marker for how hot you are, of course if you are a 10/10 you will most likely know it but for the rest of us there are external factors at work that mean that the women in your area either have ridiculous standards or you live in a city full of 10s.

Don't believe everything you read on an anonymous messaging board Ive stated that I didn't respond to the ones who were sexual (my version of creepy). If it's polite, there's no reason not to. Don't be such a frigid pessimist
Ready2DateAgain Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Phoe ,you're quite a lovely looking lady.
Phoe Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Phoe ,you're quite a lovely looking lady. Oh! That was unexpected thank you
Ready2DateAgain Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Oh! That was unexpected thank you straight out of left field,but anything to keep you smiling.
Ready2DateAgain Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Why on earth not? It doesn't hurt to at least chat with someone. you are one cool girl normally girls get bombarded by messages that it's way too much to respond to every single message. Is Match a better OLD site than POF?
Phoe Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Is Match a better OLD site than POF? No idea, I only ever used POF, but I know a lot of users have some negative views about POF overall.
Ready2DateAgain Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 No idea, I only ever used POF, but I know a lot of users have some negative views about POF overall. There's a lot of flakes on POF ,I'm at a point in which I can't take anyone serious on that site,it's very hard for nice guys like me to get a woman to go out on a date

Clear your head of the frustration! Being frustrated while trying to date, does no good for any person.

Well I'm currently not even logging in at the moment I have my file hidden ,I seem to have better luck meeting woman in person as oppose through online.

I am in fit shape and dress very well something some pics don't do me of any justice Same here, I experimented by emailing a couple of obese women on POF just to see if they would respond. Both viewed my profile, but didn't reply. That speaks volumes about their unrealistic standards.
