I have to be honest, i like when people reply even with no thank you, not interested.Reply is a dialog thats why we are here to chat, to have fun,not being rude and not reply at all.pls this is my opinion.It is like outside if someone says hello, manners you have to be polite and reply.

My profile is really clear about the fact I won't reply if I'm not interested. If people choose the message and then get upset if they don't get a reply then I'm afraid that's on them.

All these people have replied to your post, but you haven't thanked them for reading it and replied to anyone.

Does that mean that you are rude with no manners ?

I can exceed my message allowance so I'm not going to reply to all messages.. Many are beyond crude and completely beyond fabs level of acceptance. I try to reply but then you get the tennis effect.

Blar blar.... No thank you

But why no a I not your type.... No thank you

But I'm local.... No

I can come round when your free.... Its still no.

Then you end up blocking. Name changes on profile and starts again til you realise.

So a no reply is still a reply..

It's stops a tennis effect

This, sadly is why you seldom get a reply.

I fully understand why a lady wouldn't reply, too time consuming and risk of being abused. However the few who do reply with a no thank you, good luck, really do make an impression.

Ladies when you do say no thanks, there are many guys who really appreciate you taking the time to do it!

The trouble with replying a polite 'no thank you' is often replied back with abuse and also its impossible to reply back to everyone so just take a no reply as not interested.

If somebody sends us a polite message we always reply politely, but we can because we're not drowning in messages.

Genuinely don’t blame any couple or single fem if they don’t reply. For lots it would be a full tome job. Always assume that if you’re keen then at least 50 others are too. If they, read it and don’t reply, then it’s all good. You’re not for them. Life is too short to worry about it

I agree with you OP. In a perfect world someone will respond to your hello. But then, is it just hello you are expecting back or are you looking to have a conversation with them?

If you were outside and you said hello to someone they may reply with a hello back. If you were stopping them to have a conversation, how many would stop and have a conversation with you during their busy life?

I see these types of people as desperate for any sort of interaction. That in itself tells me that it's someone to be avoided. They just don't understand the differences between real life and online communication. The rules are different. The way we communicate is different.

Last night just for fun, I turned my search from just women to men and women. Well, the amount of messages I got was unbelievable.

I did reply to most with a short message “thanks but I’m not looking atm”.

I didn’t get any abuse, but I did get some very persistent message that didn’t want to take no for an answer.the only ones I didn’t reply to were rude or crude

otally agree and manners cost nothing.

However of course there is a Caveat to that.

Just wonder why so many expect a reply, when it is clear they haven't read a profile FULLY.

How many people fire off a one liner saying they believe they tick all our boxes.

Then we see they are either Bi, smoke, have no pictures, outside of our preferred age range, straight but looking for other men or TV's.

If people put the effort in, i am sure they will get effort back. (well sometimes anyway )

Or they'd argue that yeah they're over the age limit but everyone says they look young. Or they're not athletic, it's just an old pic and they broke their leg and can't gym. (seriously we've had over 10 broken legs/ankles now)

They argue and bicker and bitch and it ruined fab for us. If we get a really polite message we will still reply even if it's a no but most of the time we don't. It's not worth it.

I reply to all first messages.

Doesn't take long, and I usually get a thank you for replying message, before I block them.

If I find replying is giving me a headache, or becoming disheartening, I shut down my profile so I don't receive any more messages.

This allows me to clean my inbox and clear my head.

And seeing as the front of my house goes straight to pavement (I have to look left and right before stepping out my front door) then I can't help but think this company wasted a decent leaflet on me.

I don't really like takeaway food, but when I fancy a pizza, or Asian food, I'm grateful for the leaflets I have saved in my kitchen drawer.

But I need to eat. Also I like the taste of chicken. Therefore I'd better reply to every takeaway that sells chicken advertised in every leaflet that has been put through my door. I'll ring them up and say "Hi, I'm not hungry right now/Hi I get my chicken from a place round the corner usually, but thanks for your interest" etc?

Manners maketh the man!

What she said. I'm guessing that being a couple is why we very rarely get any abusive responses to our messages that a lot of single females get, but just simply reading a profile would solve the problems of most singles worrying why they don't get a reply.

This is definitely not an isolated incident either. No reply of a read message is a “no”. Simple to understand really

If I say "submissive men only" and I won't reply to anyone outwith my preference. Why is it rude to ignore a Dom who contacts me seeking a submissive slut?

My profile is really clear about the fact I won't reply if I'm not interested. If people choose the message and then get upset if they don't get a reply then I'm afraid that's on them. "

We try and respond to most messages but even when it is a polite no we have found that a lot of single guys will keep pushing or wait a few days and then send a copy and paste of their initial message!

Even resorted to blocking a couple of times, so it does tend to make me want to just delete without explaining why.

I know someone who just deletes messages without reading as she gets 20-30 on a good day but 80 or more on a bad day. I can only think that the ratio of guys has grown and because it’s free, there’s more spammers

It depends on the content of the message to be honest. If a bit of effort has been shown, I’m more likely to do similar and reply.

If it’s just a really poor effort or an obvious copy and paste job then will likely just delete.

It is the downside with an uneven balance on the site.

If I send a message and it gets deleted then I know not to message ever again.

The one that confuses me is when it is read and then not deleted...is that good bad or maybe lol

I'd class that as a maybe - but I don't send another message.

Unless I'm trying to be amusing or saying something platonic.

Maybe she does what I do and looks to see if the profile is of interest. If it isn't I don't read them.

I think it’s rude not to reply. Most guys send a message because the could/lady sounds like what they are looking for and the guys fit with what the couple/lady is looking for. If your not interested just say so I would be offended in fact I put a note on their profile to remind me not to contact them again
