Little rant...

Why do single men say this when you turn them down? I'm pretty sure that it's not my loss that I don't want to meet someone that I'm not interested in...

Because they are sad individuals who've never touched a woman ever?

Bitterness and lack of self confidence to just accept polite rejection. It makes them feel better but makes no sense, if someone isn't interested then they've lost nothing !

well a guy who is confident may say this when you brush him to one side in favour of another but to be fair this is a common thing because as a woman you have a hundred guys waiting In the wings so one slip up and you're gone ,a horrible feeling one that I've had a few times myself not that I've ever said your loss hugs

After I sent a polite no, I had a response saying: " yeah you're not for me either" .... why message me then I didn't reply

Another was.. " you're right I'll make you feel fat"

Really going to get somewhere saying stuff like that!

Well, I have been on this site for months and only had one incredible encounter. Its how you deal with rejection. If there is no attraction, there really isnt much you can do. A lot of single men are arrogant and spoil it for the decent men on here.

Are you not maybe reading too much into it? Isn't really just one if those 'throw-away' sayings that people say when things don't work out quite the way they had hoped they might?

I often say to myself 'oh well, their loss' and then move on when something I thought or hoped would workout for me doesn't, and not just in the fab world but in the real and business world to. I know it may not be actually true but it makes me feel better so why not.

The usual selected adjective is "genuine" , the helpless victims of these awful bad guys who "ruin it for everybody else"...and who are by implication not at all decent or genuine.

If course he could have just been expressing his opinion, which would of course mean that he was actually be genuine, which I assume you are being to. I guess it's up to the ladies to decide which genuine guy they prefer based on what they actually say and do when they're being genuinely themselves.

I'm not sure what point you're making, but find the claims to be "genuine" quite meaningless, not to mention impossible to prove when describing oneself.

I think that's my point. Everyone is genuine if they say they are genuine. Problem is some people maybe genuinely nice people whilst others and genuinely not. It means nothing.

Claiming to be genuine, like claiming to be polite, gallant, decent, funny, or "nice" (Yucchhh!) is no proof that you are

That's when the messages take on a snooty/huffy vibe......I don't believe I asked you if I was your type!....What is your type anyway?????

Well it sure as shit ain't you sistah....now take your tinfoil tiara n fuck off!

I would never do that cause I'm not a know

That sort of message indicates social disfunction - he tries to make her feel as bad as he does cause he doesn't like being rejected. OR he does not give a monkeys left testicle for the feelings of a woman so he would probably be shit in the sack anyway.

Fer crying out loud this is a swingers site, people meet mainly for fun sex. If you get knocked back smile, wish them well and move on.

I still think you're all over thinking it. It means nothing. Replying to a rejection is never going to be easy for anyone. Even not replying to a rejection can be problematic, especially if you've been chatting and messaging for sometime before. I had a case were I had been chatting and messaging to a girl for a while, eventually I moved to the subject of a possible meet but she replied, although she liked me I was not her type. I wasn't sure how to respond to that so I didn't. Next day I got another message from her along the lines of 'Thanks, it seems you were only chatting and being nice to me when you thought you might be getting what you wanted. Now you know you're not you're ignoring me. Don't bother trying to contact me again I've blocked you'. The actual language used was a little man colourful than that. . WTF !

I think we should all just accept that any or no message back in reply to a message is fine, as long as it's not actually abusive, and just leave it at that.

I had something surprising and original to post to this discussion but, unfortunately, something else has claimed my attention.

It's your loss!

Best one i had:

A polite no thanks was sent, and with in seconds i had a message back saying

"Have You Seen Me"

Hence there was no reply back and a block

"I still think you're all over thinking it. It means nothing. Replying to a rejection is never going to be easy for anyone. Even not replying to a rejection can be problematic, especially if you've been chatting and messaging for sometime before. I had a case were I had been chatting and messaging to a girl for a while, eventually I moved to the subject of a possible meet but she replied, although she liked me I was not her type. I wasn't sure how to respond to that so I didn't. Next day I got another message from her along the lines of 'Thanks, it seems you were only chatting and being nice to me when you thought you might be getting what you wanted. Now you know you're not you're ignoring me. Don't bother trying to contact me again I've blocked you'. The actual language used was a little man colourful than that. . WTF !

I think we should all just accept that any or no message back in reply to a message is fine, as long as it's not actually abusive, and just leave it at that."

The little princess believed that you should be grateful to receive a few messages from her.

No, I don't think it was that. I think she just genuinely took my lack of response as meaning I was pissed of with her or something and over reacted. I wasn't and, if she hadn't blocked me I would have still chatted with her from time to time.

The point I was actually trying to make is that people sometimes read too much into replies (or in this case no reply) and really they shouldn't.

One thing I must say is ive never had a reply like that but then i do try to reply to as many messages as I can unless im not interested in the slightest or theres no pics but i do get people repeat messaging (couples as well as men) asking why I havent replied even though I say on my profile that means im not interested.. Now that is a pet hate of mine

"After I sent a polite no, I had a response saying: " yeah you're not for me either" .... why message me then I didn't reply

Another was.. " you're right I'll make you feel fat"

Really going to get somewhere saying stuff like that!"

.....And this is why I don't send 'no thankyou' messages!

Same here

I just got fed up with rude come backs to a simple no thanks

It gets very tedious after a while

I haven't had a single nasty message since I stopped sending out no thanks messages

"I actually got a nice response once after saying no, I nearly fell off my chair with shock "

I always do this - I don't presume that anyone I message is going to 'drool' over me (Ha! Chance would be a fine thing..), and I don't see any reason to be abusive if they turn me down..

My reply to any no thanks message is always a 'thanks for reply, best wishes', or similar...I can't imagine the point of saying anything else, but clearly this happens...

I've always said that sending 'Thanks but no thanks' messages is a bad idea. There can be exceptions if you've been generally chatting with someone but on the whole I think it's probably best to delete and ignore.

Those guys who are going to complain are going to complain anyhow. Currently they complain about getting no replies but I'm sure they would soon start complaining about there inboxes being filled with 'thanks but no thanks' messages. I certainly would not want my inbox filled with them.

If the message is deleted, there's your reply.

They aren't interested.

The "no thanks" reply is more of an insult.

"Bitterness and lack of self confidence to just accept polite rejection. It makes them feel better but makes no sense, if someone isn't interested then they've lost nothing !"

It's really simple.

If they're interested in you, they will reply.

If they're not, they won't.

If I get a sorry not thanks your not my type I simply say no problem but thank you anyway there no point in giving anyone abuse for rejecting you it's simple everyone knows what they are looking for and a simple thank you goes a long way

I just had this now, He was saying the site had gone to my head and I was ignorant after I told him I wasn't after phone sex (says this on my profile too).

He replied ok sorry and I left it, 5 mins later then I got another message saying I wasn't all that and up myself.

So you're basically damned if you do and damned if you don't!
