POF : Why do guys do this? If I was interested after viewing your profile I’d write back!
Because many men are desperate. Most women get messages everyday but most men are lucky to get one a week. You might have been the only one to look at his profile in a while and he probably thought it wouldn’t hurt to send you a message. Honestly, I don’t think he did anything wrong as long as he takes the hint and moves on from here.
From what I’ve heard a lot, it sounds like a lot of the guys now are so insecure. I’ve had women not message back and would never hound them. If a girl doesn’t answer back, just consider it a no, pull your big boy pants up and move on.
I dunno. Maybe he thought you missed his message. At least he wasn’t being a complete asshat.
When I send a message, I usually don’t get a response. I tell people it’s about 10% of my output. When I get a view, but no response, I assume she’s not interested and move on. Sometimes, they get back to me days or even weeks later, so I would be stupid to leave an angry message.
That guy seemed fairly polite, like he probably talks that way to women in real life. He sees a woman he’s interested in and tries to strike up a conversation, but she walks away from him. « You won’t talk to me? » he calls after her.
In regards to responding, I’d prefer no response, over a negative response. It doesn’t bother me *that* much, but it hurts for like a second and maybe I think about it a bit longer than I should. It helps to talk about it with friends. Recently I had a woman respond with something like, « Thank you for your message, but you’re just not my type. I wish you the best. » I have to admit it stung a bit, but I moved on.
I had one send me this message almost immediately after I viewed his profile “what’s wrong? Not interested??”
I might have been but not after that
OLD is fucking garbage
POF is the equivalent of an online trash dump
I say it once and ill say it agian.. i wish guys will let me coach them on online dating.
Women do it too. I’ve had messages where they simply assume that any positive response from them would automatically lead to a guaranteed date. Then, when I don’t respond to their original messages, they send follow ups like this guy in OP’s post, expressing a feeling of bewilderment.
I do read their profile. I’m automatically interested in women, initially at least, when they decide to send me a message (except the obvious scammers). However, if something I read in their profile really turns me off, I don’t feel like spending time on them. Some women do the same thing to me, when I send a message. So, why bother?
A dating site I used at one time had a way to categorize those users who would always reply to every message. The system kept track of that and publicly noted that fact about them. I can’t remember whether an older version of POF did that or not. Anyway, I recall treating those particular women with more respect by always replying to their messages. I felt like treating them differently, because I knew those particular women always made an effort to reply to the messages they received.
I mean you could have messaged him to say sorry, not interested. But I’ve seen how some wankers respond to that. Just block people you arent interested in
Why do all the fat disgusting 45 year old trailer trash wildebeests on POF think they’re beauty queens?
Just a view lol that’s why women do anymore on pos or just block guys what. A horrible app. I just started talking to a woman that says she’s been single for over 5 years. I have to wonder how many women. Have been single for a decade,or two on plenty of fish because it seems to me a lot of women on there are single for numerous years because of some reason why would they be on there in the first place.
all these women are entitled thots just go mgtow
