MEN:Would you rather I ignore your email after I realize there is a deal breaker? or would you rather I tell you the truth as soon as I see the deal breaker?so you can move on to the next potential 'miss forever'?
WOMEN: When you talk to someone and they seem like a nice person do you tell them as soon as you are aware of the deal breaker or do you ignore their email?
I tell them the truth. I would much rather someone tell me the truth. The truth may hurt, but it's easier to get over than the not knowing!~!!

I prefer to know up front. It really stinks to realize after you have left 3 messages on the answering machine and send an email that it is not that she busy, just not interested. Ok I am a little slow, but that is the testosterone

I like to know.
If I don't get a response from an email, after a series, I presume she's (a) found something that's a deal-breaker, or (b) found someone "better".
I don't place the "chase" game, but I would like to know what the deal is.

Myself; I'd rather be told. That way,at least I know she got the message. I'm extremly Honest, and it always gets me in trouble. About the 2nd. Email, I tell them what I'd like to do to a woman's body. Holding Hands, all the time; Kissing her Hand, Arm, Neck. Sucking on her Ear Lobs. Licking down there Cheek bone to there chin and biting it a little; before moving up to there Soft, Delicate, Smooth, Lips. I'm very Attentive to a woman's needs and I wont to Satisfy them for hours on end. You can tell; I'm a Touchy, Feely person and I wont them to know that. Only one woman has ever wrote back and said that: "Those thoughts should be kept in my head and NOT told to any body else; sorry".I like her for being Honest. The other times; NEVER heard a word from them. I LOVE being Honest; so, if a woman asks what I wont out of them, WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO DO LIE ?? Just me being me; because I can't be anyone else.

Tell the truth, but don't be mean. Come on... 90% of the profiles I have read have included honesty as a quality that they were looking for. So be honest and set the good example.

ummm, to me its kind of two-fold. i mean of course truth always outweighs all the other answers and even the truth might hurt sometimes. but the two-fold part is if it's just one email i dont always respond cuz maybe i dont want the truth to hurt their feelings if its something like im not attracted to u or these r X things i dont like about u. if i leave it unsaid, then its easier to assume that maybe im just not that in to u or im w/somebody else and having time w/them. but if i am getting persistent emails which has happened, then yes, i will definitely let u know what is up that im not responding to your emails or why im not. that way u get the picture and we can all move along our merry way.
i mean if a man hasn't responded to my email and doesn't plan to, then i get the picture really quickly. now on the other hand if a man is interested in me and sends an email and i do respond positively and then i don't get a response, im like , u were the one who initiated this and then u just drop off the face of the earth w/no explanation?
so u can't pursue s/o and then not respond to their emails at all w/no ending to it. just kinda messed up, u know

As soon as I see the red flag(s)..it may go well for awhile but if a red flag comes out then I back off no matter how much time I invested..I trust my judgment and so far have been right on que..I tell him after I have thought out the deal breaker situation...I dont like to be too hasty, I want to be sure...

Yes please do tell me, I may be disappointed but I can handle rejection better than simply being ignored.

You have to be honest. But, you don't have to be judgemental about it, something may be a deal breaker for you, but we all have our picadillos. None of us are perfect. Try to couch it terms of what your gag levels are and are not and that you just don't see it working out. (I think we can tolerate some less than perfect behavior sometimes if it is isolated and not part of a pattern associated with someone with issues.)
I know there are things about me that will be dealbreakers for some men. But there are things about some men that are dealbreakers for me. That is life. It is just a matter of severing ties sooner than later.

Well honestly most "deal breakers" happen in the very first email I receive. Things such as an email that says nothing but: "hey" or an entire paragraph that I can not even read because I really think that the guy put their chihuahua on the keyboard and let them walk around for a bit before hitting send. 
Call me a prude, rude or the amazing B word, but come on guys, if you want a response give a girl something to actually reply to.
