Rejection

So the HUGE thread got me thinking about rejection.

We do tend to see a lot of threads started by men who complain about women's high expectations/no replies/no meets.

I appreciate this is only a minority of men but men none the less.

I have had "no thanks" messages, I have also had messages read and deleted. Do I harass the person? Give them abuse or come here ranting? No!

I accept I'm not what they are looking for and move on, so on the whole it would that women just seem to handle the rejection better than 'some' of the men here.

Probably. I've never been one for the 'but why' or 'you're just a fat slag anyway' approach. See my 'getting meets' thread for a more positive spin on the single man experience. Like the Murphy's....I'm tasty!

I don't think its gender specific at all, I know some women refuse to take no for an answer I know some men who are the same....

Or the fact that we generally have another 3 messages asking for a meet and just don't have time to send snotty messages asking why someone should have the nerve to turn us down, even though we live 50 miles away and haven't read their profile

By far the worst reactions we've had to rejections have been from couples and women.

Most men are actually very polite, at least that we've experienced.

Exactly! I see profiles on here and it says the person is looking for slim, toned ladies, I'm far from it so I don't bother contacting them. Seems men in particular think preferences are irrelevant. If someone replied to me and said I wasn't what they were looking for I would delete the message and move on, not harrass the telling them how amazing I am, how no one can resist me....blah blah (THe tripe men reply with). Why can't others do the same, I seem to be getting more and more 'but why not?' messages sadly.

I can imagine there are and I realise I've been here a short time, I just meant I've not seen that in the forums.

No some wont be seen in the forums or some are posts disguised at something else....but in reality some take rejection better than others regardless of gender.

We had a guy spit his dummy out today after we told him know thanks for the second time, lol

Some guy just like to push it ha ha. But to be fair its not very often we get replys like that, most are OK thanks for replying.

I can't say that I am happy with rejections; I just won't harass the person asking for 'why'.

What does piss me off is men who write on their profile that they will reply to any message, and then delete my very 'personalised' message. And they tend to be men that are praised into high heaven by some forumites whose tastes and opinions I like, so an immediate delete feels like a personal rejection. But again - I won't pester them. Just move on.

I think that these may be the guys that send out 50+ messages and don't get a response to any of them, so come to the forums and have a little cry about it.

I can't imagine any woman sending out a volume of messages without a reply though (and certainly not you).

but that IS mainly just because there are more MEN than other users.

We've had many ignored messages and the occasion no thanks reply.

Yet we dont come ranting either - just accept it and move on.

Then we aren't that desperate - perhaps the single guys that do rant/be rude etc are just desperate and cant get any.

Someone messaged us the other night and i replied with i dont think you are what we are looking for. Then i got a message back saying he didnt want to meet us arrogant fools anyway! He said my arse was nicer than my face (which he hadnt even seen) Then called us time wasters and blocked us. This is the reason people dont reply with even a no thanks

I always reply to a rejection message with "thanks for taking the time to reply, it is appreciated, have fun". Once someone has made their mind up what is the point of trying to get a different response? We are all different and will be attractive or not to others, accept it and grow up.

I hope my post doesn't sound arrogant

What I was trying to say was that it's hard to find time to be that upset if someone does say no thanks when you aren't just relying on that one message for your chance of a meet.

Its the personality and character of the individual that generates a rant not the sex or sexuality. Some people struggle with frustration and have to vent others well they have better coping mechanisms.

I think you are right: desperation is what drives these messages, the insecurities and jealousies.

I have never asked why someone doesn't want to meet me, I really don't need to know, so I just accept it and move on. The way I see it there are plenty more out there who may want to, so why should I concern myself with the ones who clearly don't.

In real world I dont think women handle rejection any better then men. On fab they do but thats because if they are rejected, 2 mins later they could be chatting to another bloke and all is forgotten. Thats not same for guys. It is hard for guys but on plus side, we dont have to deal with any abuse whatsoever.

As a single guy I used to get plenty of action from fabs and away from fabs.

So if I wasn't someone's cup of tea it wouldn't be bothered so much as I knew there were always other people who were happy to meet me.

The male ego is a delicate thing sometimes and rejection brings out the worst in people.

Its not gender specific at all

Personally, I don't understand engaging in message ping pong with someone you're NOT interested in meeting. It sends mixed messages and insults when the penny finally drops it's a no!

In six years I've never had an abusive message as (a) I have in my profile text I will not respond to anyone outwith my meet criteria: and I don't! (b) anyone meeting my criteria but I don't fancy gets a thanks but no thanks message which wishes them well and effectively ends the conversation. If they write again I delete unopened.

No mixed messages, no abusive mail.

"Must admit we do get asked "why" and whats's wrong with me. This despite them not reading our profile at all.

But prefer these replies to, " I hope you get aids and die".

Which still ranks as our most vile reply."

Best reply to that hysterical person is a big lol. Rile them and say current treatment gives people a near normal life expectancy.

"I hope my post doesn't sound arrogant

What I was trying to say was that it's hard to find time to be that upset if someone does say no thanks when you aren't just relying on that one message for your chance of a meet. "

It did.

"I'm still debating whether or not I should reply to "Hello big boy"."

Since there's no picture of your penis on your profile and you state your height as 5'4", who sent this message, Jimmy Krankee?

I had a lovely rejection reply the other week, she said you sound lovely but not for me at this time. I replied thanks and happy fabb'ing. And we left it at that, no bitterness on my part.

I think it just comes down to respect, and it's probably a reflection, that in this day an age, it's easier to hide behind an email or text than to have to guts to berate someone face to face, because let's face it, if we received a rejection in a pub/club in normal everyday life, they wouldn't have the bottle to say those things

As had been said time and time again, it's the minority that ruin it for everyone

Some people do feel aggrieved when others dont respond to them in the way they expect.

This is across the board here, men, women, couples, TVs.

We have had rejection ( no reply ) and simply move on .

We have also not replied when we are not interested

It's the nature of the game .

Really can't see why anyone gets het up about it , and it isn't just guys who complain - it seems that couples looking for a single bi female are the worst of all !

No mixed messages, no abusive mail."

That's more or less how I operate. Only had one nasty message but that came totally our of the blue. Bit of an unhinged character

I should imagine there's bad on both sides. What gets my goat is someone sends a message. You read their profile your not what they are looking for. You say this and they say but I will make allowances for you. Like they are doing you a favour lol.

I think he makes some fair points .

It's not a complete generalisation as he says most , not all . And from his perspective they probably are .

And as for pulling better at a night club , that's true .

And if less of us worry about what people say about us it will be a result .

for meeting in a club i expect to pull would be easy as your meeting the other person face to face,chatting and having a drink befor you go further.as on here theres not a lot of romance when a guy say "wanna suck my dick".or "meet forra fuc".in a one line message.but so far i find guys are polite with a message,i do say so far....lol...

"So the HUGE thread got me thinking about rejection.

We do tend to see a lot of threads started by men who complain about women's high expectations/no replies/no meets.

I appreciate this is only a minority of men but men none the less.

I have had "no thanks" messages, I have also had messages read and deleted. Do I harass the person? Give them abuse or come here ranting? No!

I accept I'm not what they are looking for and move on, so on the whole it would that women just seem to handle the rejection better than 'some' of the men here."

What a load of old claptrap. Condesending and arrogant too .

It's probably much easier to handle the occasional no thanks if you have an inbox full of fuck me messages. I couldn't say for certain cos I've never been in that situation.

There are plenty of discussions on here that demonstrate how badly many women respond to the remotest suggestion of rejection.

Women are the very worst at accepting rejection,the majority of them are too scared to send an initial message incase they get ignored
