I know this has topic has been discussed on here numerous times and I know that the majority of replies will tell me to "block and move on" BUT why do you guys (not all of you)not bother to read profiles properly?
or do you read them and just think "sod it, I'll message anyway". Do you think our preferences are there for no reason?
Getting really wound up about it, sorry. |

"I've been blocked by people local to me even before I've had a chance to read their profile or message them!"
I do that sometimes, saves time in the long-run |

I have found over the years that Do's and Don't on our profiles, just attracts idiots. ie, if you say you can't meet weekends, every man and his dog asks you to meet Saturday night! So I wouldn't say "block and move on" I would say maybe tweek your profile and don't give them anything to chew on  |

about 3 times a week I get couples giving instant friends invites..sometimes I've spoke with the couples(especially if they arent looking for single guys)that do they know I'm a single male?- sometimes its an apology or a blatant ignore.
many dont read, regardless of what sex/status they are
it just so happens , more men use the site , so more men wont read.maths. |

"block all guys and search for guys who you fancy...."
I dont think I need to block all guys, I think I have a pretty general preference of straight, white guys aged between 20 to 50. I do look too and approach men. Unfortunately, I am starting to think that the majority if single men on here are just not single at all! |

Because they want a shag, & believe the more they message, the more chance of a positive response. Reading profiles takes time. You could 'cut & paste' 10 messages by then. Pure mathematics!
I have messaged people, where I don't 'exactly' fit their 'wish list'. But only if very near to it (a year or so on age, 6 inches here-or-there on penis size), but wouldn't bother if someone is after something completely different, as its never going to happen. |

I didn't mean gone rude. Its just that if I look at a profile of a guy who I think is really hot but he is only interested in meeting a bi fem or a couple or an Asian girl, I wouldn't dream of wasting his time (or mine) in sending a message. So with that in mind, I dont see why I should block all men. Thanks for taking the time to post though x |

We all have our blonde moments, so its cool.

I've always thought I was from a young age, but people say I'm more 5'11", 6'0". I don't really care. Think only short people, or those going for the Guinness book of records try to add height |

You were 5' 10" from a young age? Your poor mother...
Here's a thought, try actually measuring your height with some kind of calibrated measuring device? |

But then surely if you like people say you are 5'11" then put that, like you say if someone is wanting 6' plus you might be in with a shout maybe but not like said above you are 5' 10"

On the quiet, I've tried (Oh God how I've tried!!!) to help a few single guys on here to 'smarten up' their act viz-a-viz how they go about sending messages to women.
It drives me to distraction having to explain WHY it makes a difference to actually read someones profile and at least mention - preferably talk about - at least ONE thing in the lady's profile.
The usual response is along the lines of 'That'll take too long and I want a shag!!' I usually follow that with... 'And how long have you been on here already not getting a shag then????' And then I wait for the penny to drop...
Haven't heard one reach the bottom, unprompted, yet....... 
 A despairing Pork..... |

Does it really matter ?
Is it really worth getting all het up about ?
For us the answer is 'NO'.
Quite frankly if we get a message from someone who appears not to have read our profile, it simply gets deleted without fuss or ceremony.
We've never understood why people get so wound up about it, it's not as though prospective meets are knocking on the front door of your house ... |

I do often wonder where us females on the site are going wrong!
They can train lab rats, mice, chimps, elephants, dolphins but somehow we have hit a brick wall with many Fab single males |

I like to make it into 'The Weakest Link Inbox game' as I go through the messages as each one hasn't read my preferences and fails to get a reply I tell the 'You are the Weakest link, Goodbye!' I even do the voice.
Thankfully there is an occasional winner! Hello!.... |
