margate sumwear by the sea

this is NOT a rant or a wine.

It's a serious quesjun.

But wot is rong with just (hi) in a message.

Ya ok its small talk and its not verry emagenartive but its a huge ice breaker.

But for sum its small talk or no talk. Cos of condishouns like Asperger's ect....

And i no im not the Onley one with that.

I my self have red profiles of others wear im a match to wot thay r looking for but cos its also saying stuff like if you send a message it must at lest hsve a cupall of sentences in it and anything less you get deleted and blocked ect......... Witch is just a put off strate away.

And im Shor im not the Onley one that has thort this.......

So serious quesjon

Wots rong with just a hi ?

And I wood appreciate Thos hoo don't want just a hi to Plees comment and say y you don't asept just a hi.

I agree hi is the first part of a conversation. You don't bump into someone on the street and just blurt out a chapter do you you lol

I agree to an extent Seeside - it's an icebreaker to flag interest (much like a wink would be) and for many that works perfectly.

But I can also see why many people would think that lacks effort - and it's a lot more easy to cluster bomb every lady you come across with a 'hi' than a personal message. People like to feel special and that you've taken time to read their profile and evidence that in a message.

Everyone is different. If someone says on their profile 'one liners will be deleted' then don't send them a one liner! It's setting yourself up for a fail!

I'm sure "hi" is fine, as long as you send a full photo of your self, one that really captures your personalty. Maybe a photo from having your aura read, or one of you jumping through hoops.

There is nothing wrong with saying Hi to anyone. The problem is this, the interweb has a different perspective than real life. Some people in the cyber world believe that the normal rules of engagement when meeting someone knew don't apply here and that you should make up some kind of all singing all dancing form of introduction. The truth is if doesn't matter a flying fuck. Its whether or not they like your picture thats the difference between a reply or the bin. And also bare in mind that peoples expectons in the cyber world are often somewhat higher than they are in the real world. We are very wary of people who have a lots of ideas about age, size, colour etc. Its very easy to hide behind a screen it's not always quite so easy to be in someone's face. So carry on saying Hi we certainly will always do that and if they recipient doesn't think that's a good way to introduce yourself then they aren't worth knowing anyway...

It's a filter for me.

I've found in my experience, those that send "hi" as an initial message lack the communication skills necessary to interest me. I like to be mentally stimulated.

When visible my profile is quite detailed. If after reading it the best you can come up with is "hi" then it would be a non starter.

Right let's imagine this is real life, when you meet someone for the first time you don't just say hi do you?

You would say something like hi I'm x and introduce yourself properly, you wouldn't just say hi and stand there waiting for a reply wondering why they aren't answering you back

We put effort in to any first message we send, and expect the same in any first message we receive,

Of course there is also the gender issue. Women are outnumbered by the men hugely on here. Therefore the ladies can afford to be very choosy and some are very very choosy indeed. That's just the way of the world on this and most "nilla" dating sites. It might not always be easy but get out from behind the screen and meet people, you'll find that real people are different than those who just hide behind a screen and bathe in there desired admiration.

Iceland, but Aldi is closer..

Seaside,

I appreciate that so far this sounds a bit doom and gloom for you..

But take heart..

On a very similar site to this, I made a number of friends and subsequently met two very wonderful ladies, not by contacting them but just by being my annoying self on the blogs..

I wasn't in any rush to meet and it just happened on its own and they made the first move by contacting me..

So maybe direct messaging isn't your strong point, but then it's not the only way to get to know someone..

We very rarely meet anyone from here because it's just to much hassle and people are very rarely who they claim to be. So if they can't take a basic "hi/hello nice to meet you" as an opener then it's not going anywhere for us. Honestly we find it far easier to get out and meet people in clubs or at parties. Its the way forward. Sires like this have a place but that place is quite small really.. The real world is far more fun and saying Hi is totally acceptable lol

"HI

That's a good start, and better than many we've received, although it is better if it's more personalised:

Say "what" was interesting in the profile and why.

Comment on "specific" photo's that take your interest.

It's also a bonus if you can encourage a response, a question is usually a good way of doing that.

AND... include a happy smiling face-pic

"Hi" is fine as an opener if they have pictures I find really attractive or a great profile. If they don't, it could be the greatest message in the world and I probably wouldn't open it.

That applies whether the person sending the message has aspergers or dyslexia or no conditions whatever. I'm not going to be giving special treatment to people I don't know and am not interested in.

As I said previously is mainly down to the picture and very little to do with the message. Humans are visual creatures.

Meaning that you come across as a bit uptight. Happy thoughts lead to happy things..

Don't get me wrong I do understand but that's just what happens. You are good looking and a lady, all that fancy a fuck bullshit is par for the course on here. We got it all the time until we blocked all the single guys. So we know what it's like. This isn't real life it's the internet, it doesn't matter.. so chill and be happy

Thank you for your unsolicited advise but I am well aware of what this lifestyle is about, having been swinging for 20 years on and off. Maybe, just maybe, I was answering the OP's question as to why Hi doesn't work. If that means I'm up tight then so be it.

If you struggle with writing more than "hi", and that's fair enough, then I'd argue you are not a match for those profiles in the first place because, rightly or wrongly, they want more than that.

I don't see it as a huge ice breaker personally. It's just two letters. I say hi to people in the street, it doesn't get us chatting over a coffee. It doesn't stand out at all. I wouldn't respond to that in a message, and would never write it as a first message to someone either.

You are competing against hundreds of men, a hi screams lazy, treat you first message almost as a cv, being polite, respectful and referencing their profile in the first message, along with things you enjoy.

The first message in my opinion should almost be like an advert of yourself, and always attach pictures.

I find this works very well for me!

I've replied to 'hello' before. If the person's profile is what I'm looking for and they are my view of attractive, it can be enough. Most of the time I do like a slightly longer introduction but I wouldn't turn my nose up if I think we'll be a good match.

There and to the left a bit

Whilst a simple "Hi" is a good opener, I really feel you do need a little more than that to expect a response. Whether that "little more" is a decent well thought out profile, or more to the message, or decent pictures is another thing.

Personally I think the message needs a little more than just "Hi" doesn't have to be your life story, but at least a couple of lines to say why you're writing that may see the sender at least looking at your profile (although a lot of people look at the profile before reading the message anyway) just sending "Hi" to me suggests laziness and leads me to wonder if someone can't be bothered with a little more than "Hi" what else won't they be bothered with?

Getting a good conversation started in here is very different to doing so out in the real world so "hi" really isn't enough to break the ice.

In the real world you have non-verbal communication too. By this I mean you you have body language and a smile which you can't convey easily online. Because of this you need to say a little bit more online to get the chat started.

Seeside please don't lose heart. You come across as a really lovely guy and there will be someone out there for you. Keep posting on the forums - your personality shines through.

Absolutely this. We very rarely meet these days through the site.

The constant messaging backwards and forwards, trying to filter out those that are just all talk and trying to match up times to meet is so much hassle. You then turn up to meet and see the photos were taken 20 years ago.

Clubs are so much easier. No jumping through hoops or worrying about messaging. You talk like adult humans. The way we have for thousands of years....

Out on a limb here, but were the people you sent your opus to looking for you?

I read the profile before the message. If they're not what I'm looking for, and when visible there's no ambiguity as to the type of men I'm hoping to meet, they could have written a sonnet to rival Shakespeare, I'd never know as I'd simply delete.

Get my name into the first line so it shows up without me opening it. I know that doesn't prove it's not the same message you've sent to everyone but at least I know you've begun to tailor it to me.

Yes this is the thing with us. A message saying just 'hi' in itself isn't a problem. But it usually means the people messaging us are going to be hard work.

"Also if they had a cock pic as an avatar then I wouldn't be interested in the profile anyway"

Just because someone says hi does not mean that person isn't worth a reply.

They may be shy and struggle with making first contact.

Yes I have filters because I am a straight guy.

What they say is not important to me, if I am attracted to the profile then I will reply.

Oh I didn't say they're not worth it, just that such a simple message gets lost amongst all the other simple messages.

As for 50 a day; that varies enormously. Sometimes it's just a few other days it goes into meltdown.

There is nothing wrong with Hi! The big problem with this site is people get away with putting fuck all on they're profiles which leaves people nothing to engage with when sending a message! Secondly some people here have a fucking high opinion of themselves I've seen some fucking honking bits of kit on here that think they are as fit as scarlett johannson they need to get a fucking grip! Last but not least women complaining about guys getting hacked off about bieng ignored and women getting hacked off about bieng abused! That's down to the thick fucks who run this site who allow women to receive 500 messages in 2 mins of logging on! I'd mass delete if I had that many its time they limited the amount of msgs people can receive! Rant over

Out on a limb here, but were the people you sent your opus to looking for you?

I suppose not, and if I received hundreds of messages a day, I'd probably do the same, just offering some perspective from us poor poor men

I don't get hundreds of messages a day, I never have. If people want to waste their time messaging people who are not looking for them, more fool them.

Limiting the messages women receive wouldn't work, why should admin decide which messages I receive and which aren't allowed? What if the one guy I would match with can't message me because I've already received a shit load of messages from people I'm not interested in?

As for the 'honking bits of kit' (charming, really) that works both ways. It's not just some women who have a sense of entitlement.

It up to people what they put on their profiles but if like me you do say what you're looking for as in locally based to me and I get 20+ messages from people who clearly don't meet that how can it be blamed as you so eloquently put 'the thick fucks' who run this site to me 'the thick fucks' are the ones who message me because they can't be bothered to read the first sentence on my profile and why should the admin restrict the amount of messages people get when all some people need to do is read? If I receive a hi message then I'm likely to delete as that equals laziness.

To be perfectly fair OP, while I completely understand and appreciate your own circumstances (re Aspergers and dyslexia), the person you are messaging isn't going to know that or get that from 'Hi'.

Something you should perhaps consider, is that when you look at your inbox, the beginning of the message is visible.

Now, while I appreciate that many will look at your profile before opening your message, many may not even go that far if they can see that all you have written is 'Hi'

Personally, I don't see the point in such messages. I'm also beginning to understand why a lot of people don't like winks - because it's difficult to understand. People wink for different reasons.

For many 'Hi' screams out lack of effort - both in composing a message and also hints that the profile hasn't been read.

What I think a lot of people have trouble getting their heads around is that, quite often, they treat sending a message as beginning a two-way conversation - compared with sending a letter. I've seen this over many years with e-mails etc. And this is largely because they believe that sending an electronic message is instant and make the assumption that it is received and read immediately - much like people make similar assumptions with text messages.

Now, if you were to approach a message in the same way as you would writing a letter....

Perhaps something to think about.

On a separate note OP, I have to say that I do rather admire how you are getting stuck into the forums. I don't mean to be at all patronising, but I know of a few who have similar conditions to you who wouldn't have anywhere near your confidence, so well done you!

Keep it up fella

hi is almost ok if there's an instant attraction. if you're profile is good then it's probably fine.

most people are looking for compatibility, and an escape from everything usual in their life so the usual might not work here.

if i have to make all the effort with someone i lose interest. if you only say hi then already there's some expectation that i'll make more effort than you by replying.

And I wood appreciate Thos hoo don't want just a hi to Plees comment and say y you don't asept just a hi."

We understand your question, but we think the best way to handle this is for you to say 'HI' then answer it from your own experiences.

If you get very little or no reply, then you will know what is wrong with it. IE. You don't get a reply.

That will be what is wrong with 'HI' to you.

As for what we think is wrong with it, well it doesn't really matter. We think it boils down to whether your actions get you a result, or not.

Hope that helps!

You've said on your OP that's it's small talk or no talk but whenever you post on the forums, they are usually long and detailed.

It may not be the 'hi' message, it's most likely that you are just not their type for any of thousands of reasons but sending more than a 'hi' message just may make you stand out from all the other 'hi' messages.

Never expect a reply Op. or if you do. Put every effort you have in getting that person who reads it to understand who you are.

' You talk others listen'

Isn't that what you are guilty of as well?

Everyone has their own opinion on what is reasonable both in an initial message and in a profile.

If someone is making first contact then it is normally because they want something.

The majority opinion on here is that a little more than 'HI' is needed, hence the usual lack of reply. It isn't about being a keyboard warrior or lack of manners, it is about the person making initial contact displaying a little bit of effort.

No-one has to say more than 'HI'. It is up to them.

The only thing is that they have to accept the results of their efforts.

As with everything, most things depend upon both context and your objectives.

I wouldn't be flirty in court with a judge, even if I would, if he was in a swingers club: context.

And if I wanted to secure a job that I really wanted, up against hundreds of other job seekers, I wouldn't try to find out the phone number of the HR Director and send a text message, saying 'Giz a job'.

It's better to craft your communication with someone based upon them first and foremost and latterly upon you. Find out, as much as you're able to, what sort of message they'd prefer.

Appropriately warm and friendly messages are almost certainly preferred over the opposite. If it's assumed that they'll get lots of messages, then aim to make sure that yours stands out as much as possible from the others. If they all say 'Hi', or 'Fancy a fuck', then it's not going to do this very well.

What's your aim? Ultimately trying to get a meet? Let that guide your mission.

I appreciate that so far this sounds a bit doom and gloom for you..

But take heart..

On a very similar site to this, I made a number of friends and subsequently met two very wonderful ladies, not by contacting them but just by being my annoying self on the blogs..

I wasn't in any rush to meet and it just happened on its own and they made the first move by contacting me..

So maybe direct messaging isn't your strong point, but then it's not the only way to get to know someone.."

might be different for couples, and maybe most other people as well, but people can (and sometimes do) chat differently in private to me than they do on the forums. like on the forum it's not awkward if you don't fancy someone and you chat, and even if you chat as friends in private i find most guys expect me to be interested in them eventually if they've PMed me.

i even avoid some topics on here because of this, as i don't want to get PMed by the OP.

"My ex gf that I was with for 10yrs came over to me in the naffi and said hello.We hit it off from that simple one word.That hello was the first step from a strainger becoming a friend and even though she now lives back home in Germany were still friends and those 10yrs of smiles wouldn't of happened without a simple hello.

But I see your point.What my reply to her hello should of been was-HOW DARE YOU JUST SAY HELLO TO ME.CANT YOU SEE IM ABOVE YOU.YOU SHOULD OF COME OVER WITH A 11 PAGE CV AND YOUR IMYENTIONS MADE CLEAR.BUT NOOOOOOOO YOU WAFT OVER HERE TRYING TO RIDE MY STUNNING BODY LIKE A HIRE BIKE.YOU WICKED WENCH.NOW GO AWAY AND DONT COME NEAR MY THROWN AGAIN WITH YOUR SIMPLE HELLO WORD.TUT TUT HOW DARE YOU ENTER MY SPACE WITHOUT GIVING ME YOUR LIFE STORY AND CALLING ME GOD."

Wow strong views there pal. I stoped reading when you hit the caps lock.

It's always makes me chuckle when something rhymes with cock.

Caps lock - Cock.

"It is boring and wouldn't grab my attention."

A sensible and sane answer.

However be careful ignoring it, just look at all the ranting it creates!!

Maybe it is a bit simple, but someone chooses to send a message that simply says 'HI', well then we simply choose to ignore it.

No drama, no fuss.

Just our choice.

A choice that is shared by many others it seems going by many of the replies on here.

Interesting thread though. All the ones ranting and raving, do they know this sticks around for quite a while?
