I have recently resurrected my profile after a relationship. To be honest I am suprised at the amount of messages I get from guys that haven't read my profile. Is it just me?

How do you know they haven't read them?

Are they asking you questions that you've already answered on your profile?

I'd say if they can't be bothered to read what I've taken the time to write then I can't be bothered with them.

I dont think many do...unless they are genuine & are looking for a relationship....most of the guys just look at pics & dont read anything....I read everything...must be a woman thing??? Confused

I would read *everything* on a profile before I contacted someone, more than once. I'm sure you'll find that most of the blokes who use the forum (and will therefore see this post) would say the same thing.

Yep that's a good point. We are worthier. Smile

Back to the original point though, I suspect if you copied out some of the contents on here I suspect you'd find that you wouldn't be the only one who received it. The cut and paste approach is an odd one to me, on the other hand it seems to work for a mate on another site. Whether that says something about the women replying to him I'm not sure.

I'm not sure if I'm the only one but I have made certain things very clear. For instance, that I don't want to hear from chaps that only want a 'one night stands'.

At a guess I'd say those are the ones who are least likely to read your profile.

Agreed; they're probably not likely to get past a seductively posed photo before inanely dribbling and doing their apish copy and pasting

I didn't think my pic was that errrrrrrr drool over material! I thought it was okay. Thank you for pointing that out tho. Obviously I need to reconsider. As a photographer myself, maybe I see things differently. I am sorry if I have given any one the wrong impression.

Not at all, I was just pointing out that some people never get past a photo before they start typing their inane 'one night stand' drivel. I thought it was quite an artistic photo myself.

You seem to have a bit more understanding about using this site than I have. I could do with all the help I can get!

We have seen the complaints on the forums.

A good thread relevant to this is probably

Um ..... better not put that black and white one up then (from the 'other' site), cos you'll get one-night stand offers from every loose male with a pulse south of Kiruna (and maybe even some north of there)

Don't worry I've been trying to delete the 'black and white one' but only just got my computer back online lol. It's on my to do list! I am really flattered you think that its worth drooling over!
