Hi i'm Biggles5000 from Kilkenny any havin trouble in sending messages to ladys i sent a good few messages but not getting any replies to the message is not by any way rude but just doesn't seem to attract attention what would be the way to contact a lady by mail as anyone any ideas. i've also been let down with a few people cancelin at the last minute this as damage my confidence a bit.
Biggles.
Work on the basis that most cpls and single girls get loads of mail from Males so you really need to stand out probably to get a response. Secondly a lot of them just don't have the time or patience to respond to every e-mail.
My advice is to.
1. read their profile very carefully. If they don't say they into single guys they probably are not looking for one or they probably want to do the selecting themselves.
2. use the chat room and try and stay in main chat and avoid whispers and especially don't whisper without asking first.
3. Most women don't like men to see or treat them as a piece of Meat.
4. If your in the chat room you need to try and chat. i don't think i have seen the "D2 area now for a shag" approach actually ever work.
we have all been stood up canceled on messed around at one stage or another. Some couples are great but some are not. Some singles are great but some are not.
I have had some fab meetings and met some great friends, but have been stood up many times, beaten up and robbed in the past so you need to be careful out there.
It takes a while for people to get to know that you are not a messer or a time waster, and this can take weeks or months in some cases or even longer with some people. Its really hard to become established as a lot of people assume you are a messer until they see or are told otherwise
Time patience and personality will get you there in the end.

Biggles I can only answer on behalf of myself in saying that I get alot of emails I dont answer. It's not out of ignorance that I don't answer, it's because I took time to write a detailed, specific profile stating what I am looking for and the emails I don't reply to are those who are didn't bother their arse's reading it in the first place.
Sean makes alot of sense (never thought Id say that bout a man lol) in his comment....hang in there Rome wasn't built in a day lol
Sean covers many of the reasons why replies are low - and how to raise your profile around here.
I've bumped a post started by BullAndBoo on the 'Anything Goes' Forum too which deals with the low response issue with some great ideas from the members to help folks out.
Biggles,
Don't fret. having joined the site recently you need to establish yourself in the chat room, It will happen, trust me, just be yourself, you will gain respect. Others will see that too.
Just my thoughts.
