Topic: They keep coming back..

So, there are a few guys who I have told that I'm not interested in dating or meeting who keep coming back. They feel the need to email every once in a while to see if I've somehow changed my mind. I'm not really sure what they're thinking or why they think I'd change my mind. I guess these are guys who can't take no or not interested as actually meaning not interested.

frustrated personally I like the ones that can't read a damn profile ... when you say not over 150 lbs and yet she weighs in around 225 looking to "match" or the age? ( shhhh I am guilty of that one ) I must be a hyprocrite then?

You never know.

You COULD possibly end up married to one of them someday.


It could happen.....

That happens to me too. The one I just got I thanked for at least not cutting and pasting his profile entirely.... this time he did that but then personalized parts for me.

You are not alone...

Are they writing you with friendship in mind or?

Nope. Not friendship. They want to know if I've changed my mind about going on a date.

Lilith, I was pretty sure I wasn't alone in this. I just think it's funny that some keep trying.

Yep was waiting on someone to tell me to block them. I rarely block anyone.

This one older guy, I keep reminding him he is way too old for me. I guess if I didm't enjoy it I would block him....

People do change their minds sometimes. Emails are so harmless I don't think I would personally get upset if a man failed and then tried again after some length of time as long as he didn't flood my inbox.
I've dated men that I didn't have an interest in the first time I met time. It does help if the man has somehow changed or if he has shown me a side of him I had not previously seen.

I do think a man who emails should at least read the profile. I find it odd when a man asks questions which I've answered in my profile. Men who don't have time to read short blurbs are too impatient for me and they make me think they only care about looks. Caring about looks is fine but only about looks makes me feel like meat on a slab.

They're not being rude to me. They usually stop again after a couple emails.. and I don't hear from them for another month or so. So, I really see no reason to block.

sometimes i notice... that u have to be a bit rude to ones like that, its a shame you cant just say no... try no never? then . no never and dont ask again! bad enough if u like them for a friend and have to tell them no once.. but again and again? it gets embarrasing...

I've been very clear. They just seem to not take no as meaning no.
