no Op you do get a lot of scammers and trolls and catfish on these sites an that is all they are looking for ... but do not take a fence if you have your real picture up and a honest profile ... some maybe are not that into you ... anyone can do as you did but sooner or later the truth will come out with the red flags ... I understand you are looking for the right person for you ...just as some of the rest of us ... and I have mailed plenty to meet... got no response ...so I figured I was not what they are looking for ... move on... don't get to upset over it ... Good luck ...

Hi ChooChoo,

The basic rule of online dating (for BOTH genders) is that appearance catches the eye & then the profile gets read. In real life (IRL)someone meets you & gets to know you based on your personality & you can become attractive based on that but in OLD (online dating) it doesn't happen that way.

OLD short circuits the appeal that someone might have beyond their physical appearance. Lots of couples will say that they were not interested in each other but they "became attracted" to each other once they got to know each other. This means that looks wise one or both didn't like what they saw but by talking & spending time w/each other there was a gradual psychological change in how physically attractive the person started to seem to them (like going from a 4 to an 8 on the attractiveness scale). This can't happen w/o long term in person interaction: OLD does not allow for that.

On the other hand...you are getting an actual & basic honest reaction from women who don't respond to your messages...they are honestly saying they don't find you attractive physically & they don't want to bother getting to know you based solely on that criteria. If you are honest w/yourself you will admit that you would do the same if you're contacted by a female that you found unattractive for whatever reason. It happens to everyone in OLD. Keep trying (btw there are SO MANY scammers on this site). Good luck
