you might be, god knows i am. i still try to be polite.
as ive matured, ive come to understand how lonely it must be for some people, and how- we reach out to others with hope and longing- only to be ignored-
it can hurt. if taking 1 minute to say " sorry i am not interested, but good luck" is too much for you...
well thats on you.

I'm sure it sucks just as bad for somebody to get, "sorry i am not interested, but good luck" than it does to get no reply at all.

Yeah, at least by not replying they think, "Maybe there's a chance they didn't get it, or just got too busy to reply."

Will do. It feels so weird not to be drinking on a weekend. My body's so damn conditioned to it that right now it's all like, "WTF?"

yes,it is rude not to reply to the people, just think if you were out in a public place and they came up to you to talk, would they ignore you , yes, they would, if they are rude online they just are not worth gettrring to know. but i get that all the time from people they dont respond, but i see they have terrible personalities this way and they be a waste of time, that is my opinion, this is a very unfriendly site so far.

You can't compare the internet to the real world. It's apples and oranges, for the most part. You're not obligated to reply to anybody online, nor should you feel rude for not replying.
Besides, as I said before, no reply is a reply. It serves the same purpose as replying, "Sorry, not interested."

sure you can, its only because the net has allowed people to express their inner douchebag that the net seems differently. only teenage girls and trolls say "its only the internet"
and saying it serves the same purpose is like saying shooting someone serves the same purpose as breaking up with them.

Logic fail.
In real life when somebody walks up to me and says hello I can gauge them and immediately decide if they're a nutjob or not. From there, I can decide whether or not to engage in a conversation with them. Online, you have no idea who the f**k you're really talking to. The person on the other end of the computer could be smearing themselves in peanut butter while wearing their grandmother's underwear for all I know. Besides, my profile's fairly specific so if somebody doesn't take the time to read it why should I bother sending them a reply? It'd be like if I had a big, glowing neon sign above my head in real life that read, "DON'T TALK TO ME IF YOU'RE 300 POUNDS" and then having a 300-pound chick walk up to me and attempt to strike up a conversation. It'd be her fault if I ignored her, not mine.

Thats still rude. I mean I know from your past comments on here you are a d*ck, but at some basic level you need to understand what rudeness and courtesy are right?

I actually get quite a few messages here and I'm not about to waste my time replying to every single one. Especially, as I stated earlier and you conveniently glossed over, if the message is from somebody who obviously didn't bother reading my profile. Don't you think it's a tad rude to write somebody without even reading anything about them first? If a person writes me based on photos alone and doesn't read one single word of my profile they don't deserve a reply. It's that simple. Nobody here "deserves" anything. If somebody wants a reply they need to not be a simpleton and actually put some thought into what they're writing.
If you think every single person who writes me deserves a reply you're obviously from another planet. Why the f**k would I waste my time replying to messages like, "hay u r kewl hitt me upp!1!!!"? Maybe you'd reply to something like that but I sure as hell wouldn't. One of the problems with the world today is everyone feels they deserve something without having to work for it or put in any effort whatsoever. If you want a reply from somebody then it's your duty to actually write a nice, coherent, well thought-out message and not some half-assed sentence that doesn't even make sense.

Hey maybe I am from another planet, because a lot of people on THIS planet are also rude douchebags.
But the part you HOPE i will gloss over is the fact that you claim that you receive a vast majority of emails from people that dont qualify according to your guidelines.
The fact that you think that a person is unworthy of a response shows what a c*nt you are
not to mention people nay just not hve a good idea of what they are to begin with.
I have received emails from some HORRENDOUS looking women, I mean just so bad, it makes you want to prove god exists so you can walk up to him and slap him for making such a miserable creature.
And sure i was a little annoyed by all the chunky chicks that ignored the part where i say I prefer slender to thin women. But you know what? even with the most egregious ones I cant help but feel the tiniest bit of sympathy for them for being lonely and for reaching out to men.
But i get it! I can admit that you are good looking in that fred durst-weak chinned-won't ever look like an adult way, so you probably don't know what it's like to be rejected time after, and feeling hopeless on a Friday night. As far as I am concerned you might as well have said "food stamps? let them eat cake instead."
At the end of the day, you are a d*ck, who for some reason needs to spew his bravado on a website and flirt with Bvet. Frankly I am glad that other mouthy trashy b*tch you used to chat with is gone, she was fuel for your retarded bonfires.
As i said many times so far- do what you want, but don;t try to excuse it. Man up.

I love when people run out of valid arguments so they resort to bashing on someone's looks. You're such a little pansy you had to set your profile to private. Bash on me all you want, but it won't change the fact that:
1.) I'm smarter than you.
2.) I'm more attractive than you.
3.) I'm a winner and you fail at life.
And, guy, I'd pit my vocabulary against yours any day of the week. You think dropping words like "egregious" in your posts makes you seem smart? News flash: It doesn't. I used to have a job as a writer so, yeah, trying to plop words like that into your poorly-written sentences won't trick me into thinking you're actually intelligent.
I'm not a desperate douche so I don't waste my time replying to people who obviously aren't my type and/or can't even write a proper sentence. I'm sure you reply to everything you get considering that you probably can't get your d*ck wet in a two-dollar wh*re house on half-off night but, unlike you, I'm not lonely or sex-starved so I don't go out of my way to reply to a person unless I feel they actually deserve a piece of my time.
Just because you get rejected on a regular basis doesn't mean you have to take it out on everyone else. I never write anybody here first but if I did, and they didn't reply, I wouldn't cry like a little b*tch about it and call the chick rude. I'm man enough to say to myself, "Well, guess I'm not her type. Next!"

I never said your vocabulary was "threatening" because, believe me, it's not. You're one of those f**knuts who thinks they're way more witty and far more intelligent than they really are.
I do just fine for myself in the real world because I'm funny as shit and have a decent personality, whereas you troll the internet looking for chicks who'll potentially sleep with you because you're lonely, desperate, and pathetic. You probably whack-off to pictures of women I sleep with, buddy.
I'm pretty sure nobody here even likes you. Good luck not getting laid through this site. Then again, I'm sure you're used to being rejected by this point in your life.

And, seriously, I have a hard time believing anyone here would reply to a message as asinine as, "hay hitt me up." If you say otherwise you're just a desperate f**kbag who should be euthanized.

oh my god....
I just received a message from someone, in response from my thread. Her message was god awful. It was so bad, i wanted to check her profile and see what unfolds. This is what i came across.
"to those hu dont know me...well,,i\'m just a simple gurl,,wid a simple happiness in lyf..i love people hu understand and accept me for what i am,,my imperfection and my mood swings...i appreciate those hu loves me despite of my being immature and while im waiting for my maturity,,im friendly,,approachable,,\"kalog\",, i can ride to ol the corniest jokes ever,,im easy to fall inlove,but my love can last forever,,when i say i love you..i mean it coz im a true lover,,i hate cheater!!i can be a doctor love when you hav a hart problem,,i can make people smile..i\'m thoughtful,,sweet,,easy to forgive but not to forget,,,honestly im a jealous person,,but im happy to be with,,,well...if you want to know me more you have to make frend wid me..coz i can assure u dat i will make u feel important^_^...ciao!!"
Lastly, she was decent looking too. I never bothered responding. yes call me rude and an a**hole.
Usually i do not agree with much of what you have to say, but I have to admit, I was laughing my a** off when I was "attempting" to read this. Anyways, good luck, you have proven your point here.

Look. All I know is that this same shit happens on all websites. I would like to think that I'm a decent looking guy. I'm not an idiot. I'm a lot of fun to be around. I have a good personality. But even with all of that I'm lucky to get any responses. And when I send a message it is a thought out message and could easily be the start of a conversation. But I still get nothing back. Now I have the majority of any messages I do get are from women I'm not quite attracted to. But I still at least send them a response. Now if they take the time to send a thought out one to me I'll send out a thought out one back even if I'm not interested. The only ones that'll get a "sorry,not interested" are if they just say what's up...
So in my opinion, yes a response of some sort should be given... Interested or not...

If a person can't say anything more than just a 'hi', then why do they deserve anything back? Maybe a 'hi' back is about all they would get if I did send one. Or alot of times I write back saying is that all I get is a "hi".....
One of the reasons my wink is off, is because my mailbbox gets filled with them. I feel if someone is genuinly interested, they'll say something more than hi, or more than just a wink....
Just my opinion.....
