Topic: Just say no.

I recently sent an e-mail
to someone indicating
my interest in them.

Instead of replying that
they weren't interested
in me, they couldn't just
leave it at that.

They accused me of thinking
I am God's gift to women
(I don't) and then went on
to insult me further.

If you can't say something
nice, then don't say
anything at all.

I never insult women and
always try to be polite to
them.

Perhaps I should have
put more thought into
the e-mail I sent, it
was probably too short,
but I certainly didn't
deserve the response
I got.

I wish that person
would have just said
'no' and left it
at that.

If they are that
bitter towards men,
then they will have
a hard time finding
a good one.

Thanks, everyone.

I don't ask for

respect.

Hi All
I think Women were God's gift to men actually, and I think I must have been stupid enough to have mis-placed my gift, I can't seem to find it...Maybe it's still ubder the Christmas Tree, Or if anyone out there has seen it...Please let me know OK?

I'm actually MORE surprised you got a response at all, than I am about the fact that the response was so rude and inappropriate.

I don't even bother e-mailing anybody first here anymore. I used to try contacting some of the locals, but they NEVER replied. So now I just wait for people to write to me -- and they do. They're all 897,000 miles away, but they do write!

Some people just don't know when to be polite here. As LEx said, at least you got a response. Most people that I would email in the beginning would read it and NOT respond. Just chalk it up as the person is an IDIOT and move on...
