To anyone that's heard the words "thanks but you're not what I'm looking for" , to anyone that's been shot down in flames, to anyone that's been passed over or just plain ignored. I salute you all. Your time will come. Never give up, never surrender. You are all part of the fabric of this site. As the great Richard Richard once said, "nil desperandum ".

Manchester (he/him)

I think that even those considered the most popular have been turned down and can’t be universally desired.

I do think that sometimes people focus on those that they don’t have, rather than what they do.

If no one has been receptive, always addendum that sentiment with *yet.

I've been rejected or ignored a fair amount. They don't know what they're missing (but if they did know, they'd probably be highly relieved to have missed it).

It's not a big deal; nobody is everyone's cup of tea.

I'm sure all of us who have messaged first have felt the sting or disappointment of rejection. No one is immune to it in the end. Best policy is to shrug it off and carry on

To anyone I always say you have to “shoot your shot!” … but I also say to people that you have to be pragmatic in swinging in that you are not going to fancy everyone, and everyone is not going to fancy you!!!

If a “no thank you” offends you, you are very much in the wrong pastime…..

As a female who only ever messages first it's always a gamble of rejection too ...but can say those guys who said no have always been polite...

Although I've never sent many messages (as I don't fancy that many people), I've never had a knock back from an initial message...quite a few we have decided we're not compatible after further messaging, but no outright knock back

Signing in!

It's shite but you have to take it on the chin and at least the ones who tell you have the courage to do so.

I dont fancy everyone I come across so I know everyone doesn't fancy me... ..even tho they definitely should all part of the game really isn't it!
