Rejection is always a bitter pill to swallow no matter how much it is sugar-coated. I think it is the responsibility of all the genuine members to make sure their profiles are as honest as possible about what they are looking for. This should avoid those difficult conversations and those that don't or can't be bothered are probably not worth pursuing anyway.

Ironic 😂

The majority I have said no to are guys way out of my age range (which I said upfront in my profile) it's easy just be straight up on the first post. If they keep messaging I don't see the problem with not messaging back?

@Delishass

Completely agree. Despite my profile being crystal clear on distance, 95% of the contact I get is from ladies hundreds of miles away. It shows they either have not read it and / or are adopting the scattergun approach, or, more likely are spammers.

Whilst " Ghosting" despicable though it is, does go on, I think there is a fundamental and more widespread reason why introductory messages get ignored. Its because the person posting the profile is doing it for fun and thrills. They have no intention of communicating with anyone never mind meeting them. This is why template profiles have little veracity.

On a more positive note, maybe the site could make available a standard polite " Thanks but no thanks" reply button for those who can't bring themselves to do it personally. On the other hand this might make it far too easy to reject people on a whim.

Attraction from a photo ... such a lack of depth. So much more to this than that if you're serious with what you're looking for.

I've had success on here ... long term affairs x 2 and some flings inbetween. It takes time and effort, commitment and being honest with yourself and potential partners in what you want. A considered approach. Attraction comes after all that, not a photo ...

A no is a no, i don’t really understand it, people need to accept it an d move on… it seems some can’t take rejection.

We aren’t single, this is a very much a pick and choose what you want site… second chances for what we(you) want ..

and yes, i’ve had my fair shares of “nos” and also the odd “yes” 😉

Have a good evening people, the weekend approaches x

I tend to avoid those also that say they are in town regular. Especially when they list other locations. Us Manc ladies are no pushover 👊

@Delishass

I agree with you there, girl.
Living in Manchester means a lot of guys travel here for work. They say they'll visit several times a month, but that means I'd have to coordinate my diary to accommodate them.

Also, I don't want to be their girl of this port. How many others do they have lined up for this city alone ... And other cities too!

@Rustiqe
I do say in profile that I'm busy and don't have time to be squeezed in plans. Working or visiting London means I have to fit in your plans, I don't have time to fit in. Living in London gives us 7 days to play with including meeting for drinks after work (without Covid restrictions)
