I still receive unsolicited winks or messages from guys. Some weeks more so than others, but it's a fairly constant rate. I would say that of these guys, I only find 5% attractive and within my height/religion/other requirements.
Last night, I received an email from this guy in Ohio. Now, aside from the fact that he was unattractive, had children, was only separated and not divorced, lived in a trailer, and seemed to be a bit of a boozer, I politely responded to his message.
Wayne35luv (initial message):
"hi there"
My response:
"Hello
Thanks for writing me. Unfortunately, you live a bit out of my geographical range. Good luck in your search!"
His response received this morning, which is a standard "No Thanks" response Match provides:
"Thank you for writing me, but I have just met someone and want to see how it develops."
That threw me - he messaged me and I turned him down. From his profile, I assumed English was his first language. Apparently it's not. Because I don't know how he thought I was interested from my response.
Even online, some men still find the need to save face as a result of ANY sort of rejection, geographic or otherwise. Just don't respond - especially when I'm not interested!
