So stereotypical!! lol I've spoke to who may as well have been a kiwi. I think it's just selective people. I'm sure when you get my kiwi type girls with your gormless men they'd have such intelligent convocations and go on a date to their local boozer and get married after 3 week and devorced after 4. We need those people I'm society for the next Jeremy Kyle style programme. Life would be boring without.

i find it so strange too. and then sometimes a man will be active chatting on this site and when time comes to exchange for example watsapp number the conversation just dies:joy::joy::joy:

There's you're problem.
The moment a woman mentions Whatsapp, most men run.
That program is widely associatted with scamners and gold diggers.

Continuous short replies could mean they're just not interested, and you can move on.


Precise and accurate

I said the same thing to a lot of men who messaged me, and most of them don't even know there's a forum section, or tell me I'm in denial 🤣

Men are results oriented. They desire a solution whether there is one or not
vagueness and indeterminisy are uncomfortable.
Philosphical, Political and social conversations end when either an action or idea or agreement to disagree are fine but indeterminaite conversations wear upon the fragile membrane that is mens attention.

why cant people hold conversations here. you claim to be single and searching for your soulmate, but when someone messages you all you reply is Hi, good,thanks,ok.....and then go ahead to write things like Hru, k, gd etc:joy::joy::joy::joy:

you get a message someone asking " How are you " and all you reply is am ok. where does the conversation go from there?


anyone experiencing this kind or thing or its just me.


No, it ain't "just you".
In fact it happens with both males and females.
Short curt meaningless replies - often imply that they are not seriously serious, or they are communicating with several people at the same time like scammers tend to do.
It is quite common, that the legitimacy of Un-serious lurkers have little or no criteria in their user profile. Also if their statement claims they aren't a "full member" when this site is a FREE site, means their profile is bogus and likely a bot generated account.
Regrettably 94 percent of the user accounts are not legitimate people looking for a mate, rather horny people looking for casual meaningless fornication. Than a sustainable relationship.

Also 99.9 percent of users on this site - who casually use "lol" flagrantly, aren't seriously serious about seriously meeting and establishing a genuine relationship. They're lurking for personal entertainment.
They tip off this with their atrocious grammar and howibble spellings of words that should be basic common sense - if they hadn't failed rudimentary english in elementary school through high school.

The truth, in a nutshell. WhatsApp is another flag. It may be useful, but the unsavory types have abused it to flag status.

some people expect you to share your watsapp after just a few helloz. watsapp is personal, am not about to share it with someone i don't know yet :grinning:


I have to kind of agree with Lynn here, whatsapp is personal and I don't like to share it with people who I've just met... Heck I don't even whatsapp with half of work colleagues...

I think it's better not to ask for another persons whatsapp /email/Phone number until they feel comfortable with you... and maybe they offer their WhatsApp /email/number to you themselves...

I generally feel more concerned about sharing my contact details (whatsapp/email/mobile number) with another person when the age gap is large too...

My main source of mental stimulation comes from men.

A lot of men are seeking that authentic meaning conversation and rare connection. Ask and you will seek, even friendship.

It’s rare, but does happen. Tell them real stories about you, ask them questions, make them laugh it’s a ice breaker, take a genuine interest, compliment them, talk about issues they like, make them entertain you, banter, flirt. Tell them they got that some em something. Lol and stroke their ego. Make them remember you. :smirk:

Their out there… maybe in needle in a haystack here, but they are out there.

I went on another site and found it to be more welcoming. I still love Mingle and the people here, but go venture other sites.

Good luck everyone. :slight_smile:

I feel that "How are you", "How was your day" are open ended questions, that really require a complete answer, it's not like a closed question where you only expect one word responses...

I can understand that some people are shy or introverts and don't like to talk, but then everyone has to make sacrifices to find their mr/miss nearly right...

And if the other person is making an effort and writing to you in whole sentences then maybe they're interested in you enough in you, for you to make an effort...

If the shoe were on the other foot, I'd bet that we wouldn't be happy with the other person's responses either.. And when that happens we just have to realise the other person is not REALLY interested in us but just being polite by answering....

I have had a few odd replies to my messages.

However, I am not interested in a relationship with the Men anyway.
