Singme if you are to email someone for the first time what will you say .lesson time


I'd read their profile first. If something in their profile caught my interest, I'd comment on that. If there was nothing I was interested in, I wouldn't email them.

Or, if it were someone from the forums, I'd probably be emailing them about something they said in a post. So I'd be commenting on that.

Nobody really wants smart and creative -- they'll SAY they do, but it's a hoax.

When I get emails from new guys, the emails tend to be full of the same questions.

"Why are you single?"
"How long have you been here?"
"How long have you been single?"

Those are just a few of the questions that are asked by most. I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets them either.

Do you ask these types of questions when you email new people?

What other questions do you see over and over?


No, I avoid those questions specifically - becuase I think they are selfish to the person asking, and asking such questions communicates that the person asking those questions are not taking into account the feelings of the recipient of the questions. I mean, if someone whom I do not know asks me, "Why are you single"... I would be offended. I mean really? You might as well just ask "You look and seem normal and attractive at face value - what is it deeper within you that prevents you from having a successful relationship!... GRRR!

Me? I tend to be more pragmatic in my approach. I simply read the person's profile, form my opinions (like we all do - be them conscious or not) and ask questions based on that. If no questions come to mind, that means I am not interested and I don not try to e-mail "generics" if you will :).

but, eh? that's just me...

$.02
:thumbsup:

unfortunately I don't think the men asking those questions are smart wnough to realize how offensive they are////whoa

I get "What do you like to do for fun" and "What kind of music do you like" a lot.
