Op: do you see that key beside "A" that says "Caps Lock"? Click it again... to where the light above the little number keys on the right of your keyboard that also says "Caps Lock" is NOT on... LOL, that might help your case a little. In internet speak WRITING IN ALL CAPS IS THOUGHT TO BE YELLING.

this one is extremely simple to awnser....it is you women that have created the hostile environment in which guys will not say hi, its all about wasting time. if you get rejected lets say 100 times by women that you have said hi to, you tend to hesitate the next time around. blame your fellow females for the lack of motivation on the guys part to say hi. i personally must have typed hello, hi, what are you like, what seems like a million times, and when you get turned down too many times you get frustrated and are more selective with who you approach. so when a guy does say hi, why not buck the trend and respond back immediately, there are other people out there that are willing to talk to us, so why would we wait on you(speaking in general)
