If you send someone an email and they respond, do you assume they're interested?

Or, if someone sends you an email (could be about anything) do you assume they're interested?

i don't ever send emails.
and no.

Always, but then desperation is how I roll

Not neccesarily... it could mean that they are receptive and socially accomodating atleast. If i had to draw conclusion i'd say that in general that responsiveness is a start. People who are too lazy or very selective to communicate casually are not worth your time anyway.

I have only ever originated one email.
He responded with overwhelming interest :-)

If I receive one, I know they are
interested because they say so.

I do get the odd one now and again,
just commenting, male and female.
Those are very nice :-)

YES and YES

What makes you know there is interest?

Um yes? I assuming that they at least want to get to know you better.

Getting to know someone better does not necessarily mean there's interest in being more than friends, though.

Insufficient data. I don't e-mail anybody first; and, back when I did, no one ever responded.



They're either interested in scamming or arguing or trying to change me.

No.

I have sent emails recently to two people that, due to location, I wasn’t interested in. Both viewed my profile and both had pictures that appealed to me visually. One had a great tattoo and that other had a picturesque backdrop. I emailed both to tell them what I liked about their profile pics. Only one assumed that I was interested – which told me that the other had actually read my profile.

I always email people if there is something I’ve liked about their pic and/or profile...funnily enough, I rarely email the people that I am interested in. I usually nudge them first in order to gauge their interest.

If someone emails me, I always wait for them to give me an indication of their interest. I’ve learned not to assume anything where online dating is concerned.

only if they contact me first, sends me pictures of his skinny *** self in boxers and keeps up writing all the time

I would think there's a chance he's a horny pony, yes

it's just because you resist

"Resistance is futile...." Oh look, it's the Borg. I don't need THAT particular outfit....!!

don't know what happened there...if at first you don't succeed...

As are attempts to draw you into the hive for assimilation

Just because the queen kissed you????

not sure ur following entirely. I mean tell her "please change me, and I want 6 babies before my 40 th birhday & if u wanna argue with me about it baby - that's great!"


you'l have her eating out of ur hand, lex

If I send an email, it is only in friendship and I let the person know that I am taken if they don't join in the forums.

If a guy sends me an email first asking for anything different, they haven't read my profile and I usually ignore them lately.

I never even try to assume they're interested if they mail me first, as i just see it as communication. Unless they make their feelings for me clear. I never send out mail. I just think if anyone's interested in getting to know me, they'll mail me. So i normally leave the ball in their court.
