Okay Chris I will watch out for your PM. Mousey, yes you did answer my PM's and I thank you! Was good chatting with you. I think I only PM'd you cos of something we were talking about here. Normally I would not have done, you are to far away so even if you was interested in me I don't think it would work.

What I was meaning was I don't do a search often and read profiles and when I find one close and interesting, send the person a message, cos when I do, no reply. However, I am learning that it is commonplace for that to happen to a guy.

Heck, on my AOL home page, it actually advises women not to reply to all their messages, only to the ones that may be of interest. They can't really advise men the same thing though, cos they don't get any messages!

I am not a negative person I promise you, just been feeling a tad down in the dumps this weekend and that is all and it will soon pass. Probably something to do with the phases of the moon or some other daft thing!

I know full well I have nothing to complain about and heck do I know it!

oh my... now you have made me laugh.

It wouldn't work mr data because I wasn't interested and told you so!

At first, I only responded out of politeness ...then I just ignored your last pm.

People have different responses when they aren't interested

These are mine

1. is to ignore a pm....pretty obvious what it means.
2. direct and to the point....not always popular.
3. being polite and not quite so direct.

Most of the time I choose option no.2 but some men seem to have a problem with that and I tend to get a brusque reply back.

I've tried option no.3, but sometimes I get dragged into conversations I don't want to when a reply comes back thinking I'm interested!

Ocassionally, I do option no.1 when I really can't be bothered, but I don't like being that rude!

Just as a side, if I pm someone I like the looks of I always get ignored...but hey, that's life, I move on to my next target..except my membership ran out.

Well, I'm sure everyone has their reasons to not put their photos up. Some probably don't feel confident and would rather people get to know their personality first, some probably don't want to be spotted by friends/family/colleagues, some probably just can't plain be bothered (or don't know how/dont have any photos).

But I think calling them all ugly is probably a bit much :)

Finally, I wouldn't go putting yourself down just because you've not had any dates from here, I'm fairly certain I'm quite easy on the eye, as well as having plenty else going for me personality and career wise, and I've not had one date since being on here! Doesn't bother me though, I'm happy to not beat myself up about it and let things happen as they do.

David's question has been answered by several posters and then
moved in a slightly different direction, but that's the nature of having conversations....people tend to disgress when the interest in the original question wains.

Thanks David500 - I did not think they had. Some people because of work etc. don't like to put pictures up in case they get spotted by people they know. I was not able to put a photo up for ages because I only use the computer at work and could not upload a photo.Then things changed and I managed to get some to put on, still using the computer at work though. Then as I have found out people make "remarks" about the photos so I decided not to show them for awhile and also ring the changes - it's all a matter of choice I guess - but most people will be happy to send a photo if you ask nicely enough ;)

All the best

David500, Plenty of people contributed to answered your question - you just chose not to read and pay any attention to those answers. Whether that was because you could only be bothered to read the last two posts in your thread, or so you could be purposefully argumentative, I'm personally not sure.

These are 'Conversations' - where people 'converse and discuss' (hence the title of the whole section). They aren't 'Frequently asked Questions'. It may have drifted ever so slightly off topic (although still related), but you wouldn't tell somebody in the pub to shut up if they tried to branch a conversation off from the original question that was asked...
