"There could be many reasons. Maybe it is only one of them online and they want to read the message together? Maybe they have read it and aren't interested so they have marked it as unread. It's just how things work on here, it can be frustrating but not much you can do about it." I get that what you are saying but surely they can just read it and say thanks but no thanks. Seems to be a lot of game playing and childish behaviour on here, thought we were supposed to be adults. | |||

"Am I missing something here, advice please. I understand that ladies and couples get lots of messages from guys and it’s not possible to answer them all. However I have recently messaged a couple and sent the usual required pics, they responded and wanted to know more. Since I sent my update they have just ignored my message, been online regularly and not even read the message. I get it’s their prerogative to read messages but why ask if you don’t want to read the response. Has anyone had a similar experience?" They may have read it when you were offline and then marked it unread. I do that all the time when I don’t have time to respond at that time. | |||

Don’t take it too personally. Just move onto the next. | |||

I get it’s their prerogative to read messages but why ask if you don’t want to read the response. Has anyone had a similar experience?" We quite often leave mail unread. It's usually if we are interested in the message and don't want it lost in amongst others, until we've both read it and able to answer it together. Sometimes we just need time to think about messages, especially if we are seriously considering meeting with the person. So unread messages can mean different things to different people. | |||

" If it's a second message, they can read it from the their 'sent'coloum and it will still look unread in the inbox! Thereby giving the impression it's not been read. As someone said, couples like to respond together, so a response can be somewhat delayed. | |||

"Mate if you get ignored I may as well give up. Sending messages they usually don't answer or straight delete(not even viewing profile). Maybe I myself am not everyone's cup of tea but blimey are women so shallow they only go for bigcox muscles and 6 footers? There must be some guys (and indeed girls) a small percentage who are lapping it up! " No, we don’t all go for those kind of guys. | |||

"I've had this We were chatting really well they said about meeting it was all arranged I messaged them on the morning of the meet to check everything was ok still as they had asked me to do so but I have had no contact since They are regularly online and are still on my friend list but they have yet to read the messages Oh well easy come easy go " Sadly there are way too many time wasters. Block! Simple solution | |||

As a couple it sometimes takes a while for both to be available - if the message is there and not deleted I would think it's going to be read and hopefully responded to at some point. If you're of no further interest, I would think they would have deleted it. | |||

"Thanks for all your responses, I agree and accept with most of them. I suppose I just did not understand why they wanted a response and ignored it when I sent it. If they had read it and then marked it as unread, it seems a lot of hassle. Just read it and reply saying no thanks or delete it. Either way the messsge is clear, Not interested! I have put it down to experience and moved on, my opinion is probably time wasters. Oh well!" They may well be time wasters. Or they may have got another message off someone they are more interested, so have decided not to go ahead any further with you. Either way, they obviously aren’t responding to you, so it’s oretty pointless worrying about it or asking others why someone else isn’t talking to you. Just move on, and get chatting to others. | |||

"I often ignore mail It's not because I'm being rude. Maybe I miss some real belters but after you open some of the mail I receive it puts you off opening more " But you’re complaining in your status about people not reading your profile correctly What do expect when you go on a Forum and admit you don’t any of your messages ???? | |||

"I ignore 90% of messages sent to me. Simply because they haven’t read the profile, haven’t send a picture or have just said ; Nice tits Want to fuck Oi bbz cm ovr None of which will get any response, because if they can’t be bothered, neither can I. I don’t want to generalise, but this is 90% of men! And then they come on a forum saying no one will meet or talk to them.....doh" Agreed we just ruin it for everyone | |||

She said she often ignores mail. That doesn’t mean she ignores every single message. I’d guess the mail she ignores is similar to the mail I ignore, from men I’m not interested in, those who can’t string a sentence together and those who aren’t capable of saying “Hello, how are you” before “Fancy a fuck.” | |||

Maybe they waited till you were offline, read It, then unread It, as they weren't interested and they felt it would be less drama to just make it look like it had got lost. | |||

He has not just sent some one liner which has been deleted and now he is complaining about it. The couple replied to him and asked him for more info which he provided and he is asking why would they do that and then not even read the reply THEY ASKED FOR.... Your response is 100% irrelevant to the question....doh | |||

They’re still not interested. I put it on my profile, if I don’t reply I’m not interested. If guys don’t read my profile, it’s their problem. | |||

Since I sent my update they have just ignored my message, been online regularly and not even read the message. I get it’s their prerogative to read messages but why ask if you don’t want to read the response. Has anyone had a similar experience?" Three possibilities 1. they genuinely have not read it and that could be for a variety of reasons. 2. the have read it and then marked it unread again because they are now not interested for whatever reason and they have no intention of letting you know 3. the have read it and then marked it unread again because they do want to reply but together and by leaving it unread it will not get lost among other messages, assuming they keep a tidy inbox and delete anything that does not interest them. Its like being at work and marking emails unread because although you have read them you have not dealt with it yet and you do not want to forget that you haven't. Cannot think of any other reasons. Send a follow up message and if no joy just delete their messages and block....don't let them come back in weeks to come with excuses. It is not unreasonable when your in communication with someone that your message gets read when they are next logged in....some will say they have not looked at their inbox. I think it more likely they have just not been looking at your message because your further down the pecking order. They have better fish to fry. I have had it myself with I man I met/played with at a club, we started talking on here afterwards and he kept pushing for another meet and when I agreed to his date and time and gave him the options for where to meet my message was not read (I believe it was and then marked unread) despite him coming online 3 times to my knowledge after I sent the message. I was clearly just on standby in case someone else flaked out. So I blocked him. | |||

"I know exactly what you mean and I understand your frustration. I read profiles of the ones that stand out to me..then send a polite friendly message.most messages get deleted and others don't bother to reply. Its starting to make me think that this site is full of fakes " Discretion, you may want to edit, see I read your profile ?? . apologies I would write to you directly, but that may end up into a ping pong series of messages. | |||

After a period of time I just delete and block so I don’t bother again. We always respond. I find it worse when you’ve been chatting and they ask to meet and you say love to and ask for dates and then there is no response! Total waste of time. | |||

"We ignore or don't read loads for ages. The real problem seems to be that most men think this is a really important intense messaging session going on. We'll I'm afraid for most couples it isn't important, there's jobs, kids, parents, DIY, car breakdowns, business trips and so on to deal with. So the times we are in the mood to reply to messages we want to pursue are quite limited. The fact you are sitting there with your stuffy in hand wanting an instant response and shag is just tough luck I'm afraid Then quite often when you get round to it the other person has had a sulky strop and blocked you or the message has dropped off the inbox or you take another look and think, why was I interested, I'm not now. So you don't get a response or at least not in the timescale you feel entitled to. But I'm afraid that is how the site is supposed to work. I don't really understand how, when the faqs are so clear about non responses, people continually whine about it. If you don't like how the site is setup and run isnt the solution obvious? " You have totally missed my point. I am well aware of the rules and I do not think I am entitled to anything, including a response. I was merely querying why someone would ask me to reply and when I do they did not even read my reply. Just seems strange, hence my post! No more said on the subject, it’s done! Closed! | |||

"Hey guys does anyone have same problem as me and gets ignored a lot? I always use manners and polite and some people just delete the message any ideas why" Yes it's on the FAQ see below There are too many rude people on here who don't reply to my messages! It's not rude not to reply. Some ladies and couples get hundreds of messages a day so it simply isn't possible for them to reply to everyone. If you don't get a response, you should assume they aren't interested. If you're getting a lot of "no-replies" then you should consider your profile and the messages you send. Are they giving the right message? Are you standing out from the thousands of other guys on here? | |||
