Author ZA Dater Posted April 21, 2015 Author Posted April 21, 2015 If you want to send a message to someone that has dropped communication why don't you try humor instead of bad taste sarcasm? I get a lot of messages and sometimes it takes me a while to get back to a guy, not that I am not interested but because I got a life outside of POF. Sometimes I go in, read my messages, and reply later at night. It might give the impression I am not interested, it's not the case. If these men sent me a message like yours they would be discarded instantly, if they chose to send me funny reminder I would get back to them. As I say OLD has I think passed its stage of being anything but an epic disappointment, full of people I have no interest in.
Author ZA Dater Posted May 17, 2015 Author Posted May 17, 2015 Can't stand online dating I did eventually receive a reply from her, hundreds of reasons why she didn't respond and I should be patient...that was 3 weeks ago. I cant be bothered to be honest, for me guys simply stand in an imaginary line and hope they get chosen by someone.

Well the fact she replied to your whiny rant, I guess means she is a decent person, maybe if you had been patient, she may have indeed got back to you. Your loss.

Ya and I hate it when people argue that real Men, Alpha males do the choosing, not women, and that men are in charge, in control, because more often than not, the woman has the final say, don't get me wrong, she deserves and has that right, because if it was vice-versa, being a guy you would love to have the final say if an obese woman was hitting on you

Your loss. At 34 she was too old anyway and the fact she couldn't bother to reply tells me she wasn't interested anyway.

I cant be bothered to be honest, for me guys simply stand in an imaginary line and hope they get chosen by someone. Here is a quote I got from a woman, she says that women, not men, are truly the ones in charge, in control, even though people stubbornly argue that the man is the one in charge, in control because he is doing the leading, taking the lead, makes the first move and does the approaching, asking out, initiating things, I got this quote from a female matchmaker, this is what she said: "All the decisions and power lies where the woman sets the boundaries by saying “yes” or “no” to things. It’s the woman that sets the pace, sets the parameters, and dictates how she will be treated and looked at by the man (for instance, are you a casual play-thing or relationship/girlfriend material?) This is all up to the woman, and the woman has the most control via means of her “influence.” A misconception is to view it the other way. The core of power does not come from the one who is initiating (the man)."

Qboro90 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 One of the things, (there are many) that I find frustrating about online dating is the fact people msg you and then never reply again. Hence I decided to do this, yes its wrong, yes it wont win me a date but sometimes you just feel compelled to. Laugh at your own leisure. Hello Miss ABC. Hope you had a great weekend, mine was partially spent indulging in supercars, freezing half to death in cold sea water and having breakfast admiring some of the picturesque mountain range oh and I cycled around 45 km's. Around about this time I am assuming (we know all about assumptions) you aren't too inclined to continue communicating with me. No offense taken at all, I realised a long time ago these sites are like shops, you browse, perhaps pick up an item, decide its not as nice as you thought and then return it to the shelf. I don't conform to what the supposed "dating" norm is, perhaps that is why at 30 I haven't dated and why any date is rare commodity. In short I am candid and forthright/thoughtful. This monologue us unlikely to impress so and its not supposed to, just thought I would send it because...well I can. Very Best wishes You are being way to negative and assuming things that you think she'll think as already true when in fact you have no idea what her thoughts/opinions are. Pointing out the oddities/perceptions/taboo of OLD is just projecting your own insecurities with it onto them. Saying "I don't conform to ____" is such a high and mighty thing to say. Makes you sound pretentious and cynical. You went way too deep and indirectly negative for a early on message. Keep it short and sweet. "Hey how's it going, do anything interesting this weekend? Then you can tell her what you did. Followed by a "would like to try and get to know you a bit more, let me know if you'd like to exchange numbers and we can go from there, talk soon I hope!
