Can anyone tell me why I don't get any messages.. I don't think I'm bad looking for my age. .. Or is it that people think its a fake profile?

Many times it is due to members e-mailing others that have not been on in over a month..

It is always wise to check profiles to see how long it has been on since they have been on prior to e-mailing..

Then at times it is due they are not interested for many reasons..and choose not to respond..

No response is as good as a response.. time to move on..

Your profile doesn't tell us a lot about the kind of person you are. Perhaps if you expanded your write up, it may help. Also there's a few pics which are too dark. I'd replace those or just delete them.

By and large, most of the ladies prefer to see a profile pic of men who are clothed.

don't worry about it - lots of fake profiles on here anyway - keep looking my friend

' to find a diamond you need to dig deep ' and remember there are others digging too.

Bit of a tip - in the future if messages leads to contact via email casually mention that when they get to know you - you could do a video call via WhatsApp or skype - if they refuse most likely a scam profile and the picture is not theirs anyway

Good luck

I can tell you.

Before I tell you, you should also know that it is not just you, and it is not just this site.
Here is a copy, word for word, of a recent similar complaint on the profile review forum of another dating site:


"Im just not getting any replies to my many msg i send out. i never bombard anyone, its one msg per person. so im just not sure what im doing wrong as i get no replies at all. So im starting to think its either my profile or im past my best before date"

It's the same all over online dating sites.
Women overall are just not participating as fully in the online dating process as they used to years ago. I should know. I was there when they did.
People go on about pictures.
I have never had a single picture on any dating site, and years ago, I got HUNDREDS of replies and messages and "icebreakers" on dating sites- from real women- and met dozens of women in person.
It's just not the same anymore.
Women are pickier, more jaded, more suspicious, more guarded, and less active than I have ever seen.
And that's the main reason that you, and most other men, are getting a poor response to your messages.

You can't blame the site.
My understanding is that the ratio of men to women is vastly different, as on all sites. This means that I think the ladies have so much more mail than guys hence there need to make the first move is negligible.
In other words, keep throwing messages out their, if they like you they'll reply. and don't forget, as others say, no reply is a reply. good luck :thumbsup:

Nail on the head with the seemingly 'fake' profile,
as the pics are gorgeous ;-)

I agree with soufie.. photos look like those of a model. If that is really you, you would think that women would be all over you, right? Instead, red flag like it's too good to be true. Ignore profile.

... and most women hate it when their date is prettier than them.

Good luck
happy

You can’t answer no to the smokes question and then have a pic
of you smoking, just sayin. Red flags abound.
