Help me understand the reasoning for joining a site like this, if you
are not going to respond to emails?

I decided to send an email just a basic hello email to every female
within my area.

NO ONE ANSWERED . . . . NOT ONE.

Now I can understand if your looking for some hawt dood, and the guy
with no picture sends an email you might hesitate to care. But could it
be that everyone is really only interested in looks. Now to be honest im
a dam good looking dood.

But I dont want superficial poeple looking at my pic, and desiring to
interact based on that alone, so I have NOT uploaded it. I want someone
to be intriged by my mind first, its kinda like the rich guy pretending
to be poor so that he feels secure that women intersted in him are so
intersted based on something other then the money.

No different. So really I started thinking perhaps the real motivation
for 99% of people to create these accounts is to have a place that can
gaze at the meat market to pick out the best cuts . . . .

I know I probably sound a bit jaded already but please if you feel this
observation is invalid try to help me understand. Im really looking for
some perspective as to weather I should continue to spend time here or
if others have found this same observation to be true.

Thanks

well i never got one!!!

Me either, Stacey. Must be the monkey scared him off...

sassystacey69xx if only you where in my area : (

no email here either

uuummm this guy is busy emailin

I literally cannot count the number of e-mails I have sent guys on this
site and NUMEROUS others that got NO response. Not even a thanks but no
thanks. Dozens and dozens and dozens. This is the nature of internet
dating. It comes with the territory. Grow a thick skin and enjoy making
friends and having fun, because 99.9% of the time, that is what you will
get--fun and friends, but no dating connections. Sorry!

I never got one either guess he didn't like my package either. Yes I
do feel it is like a meat market and my package has been looked over and
passed over as well.

Well why is it so important that it be in your area?

I have found my other half on this sight

I live in New York he lives in Florida

I wasn't looking when I found him but I know we will be togther for a
longtime to come.

Sometimes I think distance does alot to bring us closer
together.

"I decided to send an email just a basic hello email to every female

50 miles within Jacksonville Florida, I sent about 20 emails, half where
read.

I guess really that is a small sample, but I think it still anwers my
question.

I think I am wasting my time.

Thanks for the replies tho ; (

I may be past my sell-by date, but my monkey still has a lot of bananas
left in him.

You are not wasting your time. Maybe the girl you are looking for will
sign up tomorrow or next week.

My problem is actually getting something to respond TO!..lol..Nobody
notices me here..and if they do its just guys that wanna hang out with
me til they find someone better

donot think you will find what you are looking for on any dating site if
you are that impatient.

once you been around for a little while you see why.
the many desirable ladies here get swamped with, well,
swamp bilge. so they may be a little h- esitant to strike up a
conversation with the "random pictureless emailer".

however, if you give it some time, interact in the forum threads a
little, post to the welcome thread. you'll definitely find some who will
correspond.

also, some like me, don't email a lot or just login to check once in a
while...so, you either have enough patience or not...

uuummm dude maybe put a pic of u up,that generally helps...thank you for
usin agony aunt!!!

listen this is the deal. u r new. so go to the community box in upper
right hand corner of your account....then click, then go to a subject
you like and start commenting.

let people get to know you. then, make sure you ask for opinions, and u
will get them. take it slowly mad scientist, and start over......

it takes a while for people to reply, they are shy......well some of
them.

hey bush i'm from jax. can i least be your friend if it makes u feel
better?

I always reply to ANY emails I get. Hint Hint

Hi!

A couple of hints:

1. Post a real picture.

2. Give people a sense of who you are in the forums. This is really
where friends are first made and curiosity sparked. Generally, email
follows....

3. Just because people are on dating sites does not mean they want to
get hit cold.

4. And, yup, patience. Being patient is a sign that you are serious, and
that you want to do it right.

Hope this helps...
