I think it's the standard 'I'm not interested but don't want to say no thanks so I'll be quick and hope they go away' response x |

"If we get a "Howz u?" message we always try to reply with a shorter message in the same spirit as the original. It is only polite.  "
Sometimes I read a message, even one that's a few sentences, and the only way to respond is with a very brief answer.
Guys on here often make statements telling me a lot but they have jumped the conversation ahead of where I want it to be. I want to begin by establishing if we're both interested in meeting, I don't want to enter into flirty or filthy chat with someone who I may turn down. So if I send a brief or even one word message I am replying and keeping communication open but refusing to be drawn into chat that isn't pertinent to me.
If you get a reply and it isn't "I love your profile meet me immediately" or "no thanks" then see it as a positive.
But... Word your follow up message carefully. If the second message is full of sexual demands or if it's arsey then I will back off completely. |

I dunno what the problem is here .
We get messages with a pic attached asking if we want to meet , and either answer yes or no .
A one word answer which is often taken very well .

"Where's the petsonalities .that's what I want to see .that doesn't come across with one word .I need my mind stimulated to :0) "
Then ask questions and word your message in such a way that it warrants more than a one word answer. |
