b_red Onalaska, WA age: 33	It's like were all single on this sight, or were suppose to be, but still why is it so hard to meet other singles? Maybe we should all let our guards down, and just go for it. Even with the messaging. it's like everyone says the same thing. how r u. and that's it.Honestly when I get those kind of messages, I overlook em. Let's all try something new. like ask questions. off the wall questions. Or write a quote. something that will draw attention to yourself. I love to write, but i'm getting simple questions, so I write a simple reply back...than the messaging stops. If we all just put a piece of our personality in our lil notes...you'll get more responses.

theviking497 Tacoma, WA age: 22	This is true, but you also gotta remember, maybe alot of people on here are nervous. And I know that alot of people (myself included) tend to get very simple when they are nervous. especially if they see someone they really like.

leoknight28 Puyallup, WA age: 28	God knows, I've e-mailed several ladies on here and not gotten a single response. I've not been rude, not been sexual in the least, thought out my e-mail very thoroughly and written them in plain English- never in internet shorthand. I've always commented on something in their profile, been cordial and introduced myself and just been generally friendly. I'm not quite sure if I'm doing something wrong. It'd be really nice to get a response back.

wish2bagain Olympia, WA age: 58	Why do some not put pics on their profiles? Why do some not allow winks? Why do some hide the ability to chat with them? Why do some not bother to fill anything out in their profile? And yes, why do some not bother to respond to an email? Why, because they can. In the cyber world, you are not dealing with that face to face personal contact. You sometimes wonder if the person in the pic, is even the person with the profile. Cell phones, email, voice mail and texting has created to some degree a very rude society. How easy is it to say, oh sorry, wow, I never got your email or your voice mail. Oh sorry, my computer has been down, yet you see them online, go figure. There are many on DH, whom right up front, say they are not looking to date or find a relationship, simple looking for friends, hey that's great, at least right up front they are telling. I find it interesting when someone will place a profile, saying they are not looking, yet they have an age group or gender they are looking for. Why bother to put an age group in at all, simple 18-99 works. It is interesting to watch how the different age groups, post to the forums or fill out their profiles. I get a real kick out of reading the age groups 18-30. They do seem to have a writing style all their own, but them I am sure they look at us old foggies and say the samething. There are no rules or regs, that says, your profile can not have mispeled wrds, horriable grammer or gross puncuation. I think for many us, we have learned to read "CYBER"...and to me its all good. Unless an email is overly suggestive, or rude, I will always reply, PERIOD. Even if it is to simple says thanks but no thanks. If I recieve a wink, the same thing. If someone has taken a bit of thier time to write or wink, they certainly deserve my time to respond in some fashion. Ignoring an email or a wink, is nothing more than RUDE. One thing I often find interesting is when sending an email that has some content to it, not just hi how ru, nice weather, they respond, yet it is almost like they didn't bother to read the email, because your questions go unanswered, makes no sense to me. There is no rules, that says, married, in an LTR or whatever can not be on this site or any other dating/friends site. So all one can do, is hope that the people you find interesting are indeed who they say they are. I know I am. I don't play games, I enjoy chatting, I enjoy emails back and forth, even if there isn't a spark, is it wrong to just be friends.....I think not. Do many of us, take it personal that someone does not respond, probaly. But sometimes that is just the other persons way of saying "no thanks", it's the "cyber" version of being rude.

b_red Onalaska, WA age: 33	I think that no thanks, is alot better than no response...then you don't have to wonder, did they even get my email? I know letting one's guard down is hard to do, but in the end I think you'll be alot happier that u did. I'm looking for that certin someone that's gets me, and my point of views. even, my strange sense of humor. Looks are great, but is everyone really that boring? I'd rather answer the question...how would I go out in a blaze of glory, than...how's the weather. Just something to think about...

electronpusher Olympia, WA age: 56	What WishtoBagin says is a lot of my sentiments. I do look at the spelling and sentence structure. I think I can at least judge someones education and upbringing by their grammer. 'Ey kin spul gud". There is Spell Check, you know. I dont mind the occassional mistake, but one email I got from a member, I had to read several times just to make sense out of it. It was like they were raised in a foreign country;(They weren't as it turned out), and barely knew English. What many people do not realize is that you can be judged by your vocabulary and in the real business world, failure to properly communicate can have disasterous financial consequences. (Trivia Note: In history, there is an actual event recorded where a misplaced comma cost one country a major battle. A Ripley's Believe It or Not entry.)

lifetimeskier Olympia, WA age: 47	I myself met a wonderful man here in April here... He sent me an email...We began emailing daily...We learned that we had alot in common...I found him witty and very personable and funny...We fianlly decided to meet in person in late May...We really hit it off...That first meeting we chatted for 2 1/2 hrs...Truly a wonderful man...We began dating in June and have been together since...We are enjoying the momment and still taking it slow... Now if I would have ignored his original email I would have never met him... I have been here since Nov.07 and during that time I set my profile to invisible for the month of Sept. due to some drama with an out of state woman...What I found during that time was I missed the random emails and winks from people...I love people...I have friends I have met here from all over the states plus some in other countries...This is very fun here on DH... I normally respond to all emails and winks...But over time I also learned how to spot the scammers...And beleive me there are scammers both men and women...The first thing they want is to give you their phone # and yahoo address...They want to pull you away from DH to chat...DONT DO IT...Just email here till you gain some trust and see if there is some spark going...One thing about the scammers they go away once they learn you will only email here...The vanish quickly... I say email with folks, even as friends...I have like 80 people on my friends list...They are all real special to me...I have my profile listed as being in a relationship...I also have my age group 18 to 90...I have young friends as well as old friends...We all need friends...I LOVE MY FRIENDS...

chianne1951 Mead, WA age: 57	Cliff, when I met you, I was honestly thinking, you had alot of wisdom for your age. You are a little younger than my son, but you get yourself out there and you have a good time. I can tell you girls, he's a great catch, I saw that first hand at the take down party, he's cute, polite, positive etc, make the list longer girls. There's your plug Cliff.Chi
