In this small amount of time i have noticed something, now may i ask..

if i'm writing someone a private message simply because i like the look of them or there profile, or even just things they say on forum topics. Is it bad? i mean a private message is only to the sense of wirting them a simple 'hello'

(of course to get here anttention)

but you see they either dont write back or i get the idea they think i'm coming onto them or being pervy.. isn't the point of this place to get to know ppl?

answers on a postcard..

There could be a number of reasons they do not reply.
For one example, not necessarily true.

They may not like what they see in your appearance or through your profile.

It's not wrong to private message someone but the world of flirtbox is such that most people don't reply. Forum regulars are a general exception to this. Writing very short private messages as first contact for some one you like will most likely get you no where so I would say try to make it thoughtful and interesting as you can.

If you spend time here on the forums and be yourself then you will easily get to know lots of people. Hope this helps...

ah thanks guys,

Snaithman i see the point there,
i suppose its fair enough..

maybe i'll hang around much more and see what happens.
thanx again for the reply x

I replied to you, but you didn't reply back (I think)

I tend to write strange things, but don't be offended.

I'll answer you too oh, and hello!

Don't worry about not getting a personal reply mate.

I think there's a significant amount of fake profiles on here anyway.

And at the end of the day, if they can't be arsed to reply, it's their loss.

Im very new and really only here cos Im so bloody lonely - could not handle any kind of proper relationship yet!


So all i really want is a little conversation and someone to chat to

Should I expect that from private messages - or I am better sticking to forums etc

Any advice

Roy

one of the reasons i don't really reply to messages any more is that im already talking to a few people regularly and adding to the amount of conversations i have to keep straight in my head would make my brain hurt

in essence some times it not being rude if people dont reply and its not that you profile is bad its just the wrong time to be trying to talk to them

oh guys i'm feeling the love.. i have spotted the usual forums chatters, am very pleased with the little circle you guys have


choochi0 i did answers you.. you wrote 'full of snot' and i wrote you back about having the sniffles,

If the private message reads "Hi, you up for some fun" I'll ignore the message. "Fun" appears to mean filthy chat, webcam action, phone sex or some other such nonsense. Too much dignity for rubbish like that with someone I don't know.

Fun is great for some people on here, some want relationships, others just a bit of something to do to pass the time of day.

I think people will reply if your message and profile matches their current needs/wants.
