I know i will probably upset some people with this post but i don't see why it can't be upheld.

It can't take more than 20 seconds to write to someone and say, "I'm sorry, you're not my type".

Just plain rude otherwise!

Depends what message you send, if it's polite we reply if it's rude it gets deleted.

It happens to everybody I wouldn't take it to heart.

20 seconds each no thank you reply, you're getting over 150 messages a day, those you respond to with a "no thanks" then ask you why? 20 seconds turn into hours!

I think it's a matter of respect just to say sorry not interested.

Anybody would be stupid if they thought that everyone wanted to sleep with them.

I have sent plenty of messages saying, you seem really nice, but you're not my type, I'm sorry.

They read the messages with no reply after no aggressive or disrespect on my part.

Exactly this! ^

If I only have a few messages I do reply if I have 100 I csn tell you only 4 or 5 at the most will be people I'm interested in why would I sit and waste my time replying to 95 messages saying no just to get another 75 back saying why?? Crazy!!

Maybe fab should add an auto reply feature where you can tick multiple messages to say your not interested! I've seen this on other sites! But honestly op if you don't get a reply take it as a not interested and move on to the next victim

I understand but its frustrating when you take time to read a profile and see if you could have something in common with someone.

Send a thought out message and start creating a connection with someone just for a full on blank out of nowhere.

I understand the women's point of view, but I'm talking about after 4 or 5 messages, then to say to someone sorry, not for me. I think that's just polite.

You'll need to get used it as it is very common on here. I have friends who don't reply to my messages. I just conclude they have better things to do or more important ways to spend their time. As for strangers your message is like unsolicited junk mail. I'm pretty sure you don't reply to junk mail either.

Delete your sent box and just enjoy it when you do get a reply

Is there something your saying at roughly the same point when the conversation dies?

Is it after sending your pics?

You don't have too much manners. But would it really, genuinely, honestly make you feel better to get a reply saying 'no thanks'? The outcome is exactly the same. In fact, surely it's better not to get a reply because then you can tell yourself that we were stuck up bitches with no manners who you wouldn't have wanted to meet anyway.

From my point of view there's no slight intended if I don't reply. When I'm looking to meet and sending the messages myself I delete my sent box and don't think any more of it: if the reply then they reply, if they're not interested then they don't. I'd like to think others would approach messaging me in the same way.

Right, here's a novel idea, send your message, delete the said message from your sent mail box so you can't see what the recipient has done to it. Get on with your day/shopping/work/knitting etc and accept the recipient is doing the same. At some point you might get a reply but then you might not. Breathe deeply then get on with your life. This is just a bit of fun, accept it for what it is and your experience on here will be a much better one.

Try writing that 50 times plus a day, and going to work, cleaning house, cooking, getting on with real life, messaging people actually want to meet.

I haven't told anyone to do anything. People live their lives how they want to and that's completely up to them.

I'm merely making a point that maybe they think i'm ugly or i don't have the personality they're looking for, i just think after a few back and forth messages a reply saying no is fine.

I think that the majority of men should be mature enough to take that message and see it for what it is and move on. I wouldn't ever feel the need to abuse someone or look at someone vengefully for that message.

I just think that after a few messages it would be polite just to send a quick message saying its over.

Please don't think i am reviewing that you should reply to every person, only people you have messaged back and forth a few times.

Sure after a few messages I agree it's polite to say something and would be very rude to purposefully ignore someone.

But for first messages we get less abuse/comeback if we simply delete, that's why we do it mostly, and I have to say if someone clearly does not fit the criteria I lay down I feel under no obligation whatsoever to reply.

I have no qualms and agree that the first messages sent if read and not replied or deleted that's fine and i understand the plight and frustration of going through so many messages per day.

My argument/opinion still stands on if there are a few messages sent back and forth already.

Unfortunately, there are a few on here that clearly aren't mature enough to take rejection and think its acceptable to hurl abuse so some think its easier just to ignore when not interested. Don't blame the recipient, blame the small minority who are immature and abusive. If someone's genuinely interested in a meet they'll contact you, if they don't, even after chatting, just forget about them and move on.

I talked a friend into joining a year ago, she is a good looking girl and just out of a shitty relationship with someone who was cheating on her.

She did her profile on a Thursday and went on a long weekend break, by Sunday night when she got back she had 500+ messages, how was she supposed to answer that many? And more arrived every day, by the time she answered 10 another 10 would arrive. It was when she started getting the insults for not replying that she decided to delete her profile and move on.

sometime it's not possible to answer all letters,so just move on.

I kind of get what He's saying, if we exchanged messages with someone, and I mean 4 5 messages each back and forth, then they just stop replying that is pretty rude, they have spent time replying to us mostly so a quick sorry not for us maybe after face pictures are exchanged isn't too much to expect after a message exchange which has lasted for10 or so messages

On a serious note this subject comes up an awful lot but nothing anyone says will stop it happening. It is annoying when people chat then either drop off the radar or become vague in their replies but I think it's an occupational hazard.

No one has any obligation to reply to anyone.

If you cannot attract someone enough to get a response, it is down to you and not them.

If you have not impressed them enough with your manners, do not expect manners in return.

Why do you consider it to be the fault of others? And if they do not meet your standards of behaviour, isn't it better that you do not continue communication?

not just single men, we've had many a message deleted the difference is, we don't worry about what happens to it after it's sent. We send them with no expectation of answers.

Some guys need to learn this too"

YEs they do. I gues the longer they are on fab, they would understand it more

That's very poetic for a 'why does no one reply' thread

"I know i will probably upset some people with this post but i don't see why it can't be upheld.

It can't take more than 20 seconds to write to someone and say, "I'm sorry, you're not my type".

Just plain rude otherwise!

seriously or you just bored and looking for a reaction??

Have you read the whole thread? Or are you jumping to conclusions?"

I'm just asking a question not jumping to anything hence the reason I asked

"You'll need to get used it as it is very common on here. I have friends who don't reply to my messages. I just conclude they have better things to do or more important ways to spend their time. As for strangers your message is like unsolicited junk mail. I'm pretty sure you don't reply to junk mail either.

Delete your sent box and just enjoy it when you do get a reply "

I've started doing this. Though I've also stopped sending messages lol

"I understand but its frustrating when you take time to read a profile and see if you could have something in common with someone.

Send a thought out message and start creating a connection with someone just for a full on blank out of nowhere.

I understand the women's point of view, but I'm talking about after 4 or 5 messages, then to say to someone sorry, not for me. I think that's just polite.

Maybe i have too much manners for this site

"

"I have too much manners for the site"!!

Oh come on!

Trying to make yourself holier-than-others is very petty.

In your OP you didn't mention that you were 4 or 5 messages in to the conversation which you could easily have done, so this thread is becoming slippery to put it mildly.

"I think it's a matter of respect just to say sorry not interested.

Anybody would be stupid if they thought that everyone wanted to sleep with them.

I have sent plenty of messages saying, you seem really nice, but you're not my type, I'm sorry.

"

Agree. I always reply. It takes seconds.

I'm sorry, you're not my type.

You're right. Much easier to do it this way than having to reply to every message from guys who couldn't be arsed to read my profile
