A guy sends you a message who is not your type and instead of ignoring him and deleting the message, she sends that stupid response. ..."thanks" or "thank you"

 

So then it's cLear from her response she is not interested since she is not asking about him so why even respond?

 

If someone who is not my type sends me a message I delete and block them. Oh that's right because she wants to be polite

 

 

Well for now on any woman who sends me that message thanks will get a nasty message because I'm fed up

Posted

so... you're going to start being a jerk to people being polite? Interesting approach to life.

 

 

Not to mention you're mad they aren't ignoring you, but you can't ignore their message...

from my experience and questioning woman while I was doing OLD it is because the first handful of times women do what you are posting about but the replies they get back from those guys are usually "biotch" or the like and hateful replies and some bargaining as they can't take no for an answer.

 

So while it sounds good in theory, in practice it normally fails.

Had the same thing happen.

 

 

I would much rather be ignored that replied to with 2 words.

Women seem to be caught in a damned if you do or damned if you don't scenario with this..

 

Ignoring is met with why don't they just reply with something short.

 

Replying with something short is met with why don't they just ignore rather then send something short.

 

Sending something nice is met with anger and hateful replies...

 

Why would a woman reply if she knows all she is going to get back is anger and hate.. thank the guys before you for this not the women.

No, the woman should just ignore. Highly unlikely that will be met with a follow up message about why she didn't reply, unless the guy is a complete psycho.

I don't appreciate a woman wasting my eye sight with pointless messages

Oh no.... please don't become "that" guy who has allowed OLD to cause him to become so bitter and hateful that he feels compelled to start sending nasty grams... to make him feel better.

 

If it's that bad, get off the site...and take a break!!!!

Ignoring is what most do.. but LS is filled with posts about guys complaining about their choice.

 

I have also heard that many guys will also send another reply with anger when they get ignored.. so women are put in a lose-lose position in regards to how to handle the rejection.

Then there's all the fake profiles..... which can be wonderful trolling opportunities.

That's why I said they should delete the message and block the guy so she won't receive any more messages

 

What is she accomplishing by sending a message back saying thank you and giving mixed messages?

Ignoring is best because most of the time you won't remember anyway. It's not like I writ's down on a piece of paper every guy I sent a message too

She is supposed to ignore and block him

Do you not realize that women actually do get follow up messages when they ignore all of the time?

 

 

In fact it is almost more common to get follow up messages than for the guy to leave her alone.

 

 

I just went on a date where the woman showed me all of the guys who do just that, keep sending messages while being ignored.

Why should a woman have to do that ?

 

Why can't she do OLD like a normal well adjusted person does ? instead she has to block every person, that is messed up..

 

Maybe the men need to grow up and stop treating women who reject them in OLD like jerks... that would be a better option IMO...

Then they are sad pathetic men.

 

I figure if she didn't reply, she's not interested.

Try being a woman who ignores a man's message for just one day. I dare you!

 

I promise you will be bombarded with subsequent messages from the same guy(s)... all wanting to know WHY you aren't enthralled with them and their "clever" missive.

 

Annoying as hell to say the least.

 

So while YOU are annoyed when a woman rejects you politely... women are annoyed when you keep sending us messages when it's clear we are NOT interested!

She probably enjoys the attention because she can easily block him

She should do it because that same guy may send her another message because he may have forgotten he sent her one before. That's why I block unattractive girls to prevent them from sending me another message

Really, your response to politeness is going to be nastiness?

 

Guess what? If any of that bitterness is seeping through, it's presence -- not what you look like, not how much money you make, not what you said or didn't say in your massage -- the fact that you are so freaking angry & can't even appreciate a small kindness is why you are single.

 

Lighten up. When you let go of all your rage & anger, your search for somebody to date will become more fruitful.

Any responding to a polite No Thank you with a nasty gram is an indication that the particular responder is sane or anything other than psycho?

 

Civility is a good thing. If you want to get dates, be NICE. It's not that tough.

Dude, women get hundreds of messages when OLD. Out of those hundred, maybe five are appealing., and worth exploring further.

 

Are you really suggesting that she spend/waste the time blocking 95 (or more) messages from guys she's not interested in? All because they can't handle being ignored?

 

Come on now....

I only sent her a message because she viewed my profile twice. I took that as her indirectly showing interest in me

 

If not interested why view me twice?

You weren't wrong in your interpretation but she may have viewed you twice because she forgot she looked the 1st time.
