We all know you lovely ladies receive 1,239 messages an hour off us guys, and it's difficult to wade through them all..but if one is well mannered, well constructed and polite, surely its not too much to ask for a polite response? |

I don't get many messages so the assumption that all ladies are knee deep in them is a complete fallacy.
No response on here means not interested. It even says that in the FAQs. Accept that and your experience will be a happier one. |

Nothing to do with manners, just accept it as a straight 'no, I'm not interested' |

Then there's no problem then. Those that don't reply aren't ill- mannered they probably just can't be doing with the "but why?" responses. It's just easier all round to ignore. |

I've had more messages in the past 2 weeks than in the past year.....and my profile clearly states I'm not meeting at the moment.
Should I reply to all those people who quite clearly have not bothered to read or have ignored and just chanced there hand??
Is it not ok for me to consider them rude and bad mannered that they have completely ignored what my profile says?? |

I sometimes get polite, well mannered messages but they are missing a key element that I ask for in my profile. I say I will delete any messages without this key element yet I feel guilty deleting the message |

I have my own profile and the amount of messages is ridiculous. It clearly states in my profile to only message if you want to meet and that I haven't got time for endless messages. I've also put that I will delete messages if they clearly haven't read my profile and I have if that is the case. Xx |

Yes these women are terrible... I've been sending out multiple cock pics and fancy a fuck messages . I even put those dumb code words in. And do you think these women would have manners and send a polite no thank you?
No straight to the trash..... So classless |

I don't take it personally when I fail to receive a reply. I just assume that I am not their cup of tea.
Other than your profile saying that you aren't in at the mo', I can't think why you haven't got much mail! |

I used to try and reply to messages I received but gave up when it became like a full time job.
I'm here to have fun not to do admin, I also have it quite clearly spelt out on my profile that i'm not meeting anyone new.
I'll skim though my inbox & occasionally send back 'no thank you' messages which usually generates more mail.
Viscious circle really as & I can see it from a mans point of view too.

"Replying negatively opens up discussion for abuse. It's not worth the effort of risking it. "
Well said .
It's nearly always a why not , or an effort to continue the conversation .
One never wants to be rude , so not replying is the best way . |

I don't block anyone because I like chatting on here with people I've met via the forums. |

I don't find this. When I send a Sorry I'm not interested reply I get a thanks for replying message and that's it. Maybe they're relieved I said no |

"We all know you lovely ladies receive 1,239 messages an hour off us guys, and it's difficult to wade through them all..but if one is well mannered, well constructed and polite, surely its not too much to ask for a polite response? "
I consider myself exceptionally polite so regret not answering most of the messeges we get.
We travel a lot and attract messeges from areas we are passing through as well as local and just General messeges.
Usually we only meet in specific days when we are away so although messeges may be from people we would be very interested in at the right time and place, they may not be suitable right now.
So how do we reply?
A polite thanks but your not what we are looking for gets a "why not?" from 50% and outright abuse from maybe 10%.
An honest reply telling them they are what we are looking for but not right now or not in the area invites a whole series of messeges offering to travel anywhere, book hotels, arrange future dates, swap numbers, Skype, etc,etc.
This might seem OK from the occasional person but right now we have 162 unread messeges from people I glanced at who do fit our criteria. If I answers them all saying we are interested but not right now we would several hundreds replies from these people in the next day or two.
"We are interested but busy at the moment, we will be in touch" does not work. It invites a daily request to see if we are interested yet.
So in spite of all the comments about it being bad manners not to reply and it only takes a minute and so on, the reality is it is just not practical or possible to answer all replies. |

If you delete everything ('men') off your Looking For list it takes you off the searches and reduces mail. |
