Yesterday I got an email from a male. I replied in what I thought was a nice email. I received a scalding email back in which he was upset with my "canned" reply, would these replies to his questions have been better?

1) You sent me an email...that's why I looked at your profile.

2) If YOU put something in YOUR profile that lets me know we'd have major issues, WHY would I want to take it any further?

3) My photo is not meant to entice anyone. Gawd, I'm in my 50's, the days of using a physical attribute to entice is pretty much over.

4) No, I am not desperate, therefore your awesome abilities to satisfy a woman is of no interest to me, anyway, I'm hard to satisfy!

Now there's the "UNCANNED" answer.

Yesterday I got an email from a male. I replied in what I thought was a nice email. I received a scalding email back, to which he will not read my reply so here sir is my "UNCANNED" reply.

1) You sent me an email...why wouldn't I look at your profile?

2) If YOU put something in YOUR profile that lets me know we'd have major issues, WHY would I want to take it any further?

3) My photo is not meant to entice anyone. Gawd, I'm in my 50's, the days of using a physical attribute to entice is pretty much over.

4) No, I am not desperate, therefore your awesome abilities to satisfy a woman is of no interest to me, anyway, I'm hard to satisfy!

Now numbnuts there's your "UNCANNED" answer.

Hard to really answer this one without the other questions added. And I know (think) that you are not allowed to be posting them, I think.

Sorry, I did not mean anything about the way your post was written. I just meant that it could be offensive to the other party. And I did notice that you were fair not to name the other person.

There are a bunch of those on every dating site I've ever been on -- and you can't let them get to you.

I always say that the world is full of idiots, and they're all either on dating sites or driving the car in front of me. Or both.

Just ignore the morons. There are a lot of great people on this site; you just have to get to know who's who -- and a few bad ones, inevitably and sadly, are going to slip through the cracks once in awhile.

Just block him -- and if there's any further harassment, report him.

sorry guys...I publicly vented! Normally I don't do that and usually I choose to ignore such stupidity. Yesterday was an emotional day with some other postings and I think I allowed that emotion to further this one. Next time I'll count to 20 before I hit "post". blushing

Don't apologize -- one of the best things about this site is that it gives you a venue to talk about this stuff. And lots of people who can totally identify with the experience. There's a reason the forums are called a "Community."
