On line dating is a waste for the most part anyway. Have money and look hunky might get someplace, but with all the fake profile's out there probably not in reality.

ya ok lemme just put in my two cent's worth on this one

first of all

what kind of women you messaging?
someone that could be your daughter's age
if you had one?

well guess what..not every young woman wants to talk to a man that is your age and in fact, might find you kind of creepy

there are sites that do cater specifically to finding a young woman from a foreign country to bring to the states

you may have better luck on one of those

Most of the women have " no answer" to their questions. Not much to go on. I don't expect much from this site, so I am not disappointed.

This advice is apropos for women who offer the same lack of style, information and substance.....


you're exactly on point only women often are worse. when a man tells them how they carry it is not cool they don't like it thinking their immature ways are good to go. fyi they are not. so many women have a double standard to the point where they are acting like jack *** men and feel a good man should sweep them off their feet or kiss their ***** even though they are strangers.
to make it worse women over 40/50 are acting like this. no excuse for it and i have fired them frankly. somehow they never saw it coming even though i made an attempt to be open and honest about basic relationship snafus. ijs

aren't you a hoot you assumed quite alot even though you asked questions that he didn't answer. yes, negative assumptions rule women far too often these days. all that do it i hope stay lonely since you can't be more practical or realistic. ijs

its no biggy chris,, people can be easily offended and people in cyber worlds can get a bit defensive and judgmental

I think people just need to present themselves truthfully.


Maybe they are too 'shy' to know how to start the conversation so that a 'hi' is the safest intro for them.


There are women attracted to shy who will respond.


There are also those only looking for hook ups, who may start out asking sexual questions,, and there may be women into it that respond as well


I think the trick is that there are no shortcuts. There are many ways to get lots of responses,, but the best way to get truly compatible responses is by displaying whatever is natural to you.


nice reply that was practical and reasonable not to mention on point. you're in the minority though i wish we could clone women like you. ijs

That is something all men should read. One can not start any kind of real relationship being disrespectful.

am I missing something here? my love and sweetie are expressions of an older person speaking to a younger women or girl as is my lad to a boy or younger man to a women the same age or above its my dear.
if they use the word lovely bountiful etc they could be commenting on their impression of your picture

As for profile show what you want to say not what you think others want to hear

I would rather be hate for who I am than be love for who im not

Not that I'm an expert or anything, but I have some advice to all the men out there who might be wondering why they don't get a response for the women they message. 1. Give your marital status. If you don't the woman will probably assume that your either married or separated and believe it or not, most women to looking to meet someone online don't want to date men who are married or separated. 2. List your interests. Saying I'll tell you later says you either don't have any interests, you don't want to mention them or you can't take the time to list them. Listing your interests will give the woman something to talk about if she wants to have a conversation with you. 3 Don't just say Hi. I know it's hard to put your self out there, but look at the woman's interests and ask her a question. If she says she likes to travel in her profile, ask her if she's done any traveling lately etc. Just saying hi makes it very difficult for either of you to start any sort of conversation. And this is just my pet peeve - you've never met me so do not call me sweetie or honey I can't think of a bigger turn off - plus it sounds really condescending. Thanks for listening.


Not just a dating site . many are not seeking a relationship either.

It can work. Depends on the dating site that has serious people seeking lasting relationships.

I only get messages from married men and scammers, so it doesn't really matter what I have in my profile.

Chris I have to second that sweetie, honey, baby greeting. I find it really disrespectful to be addressed that way myself. They don't even know me so throwing out terms of endearment in my opinion is just a way of trying to create intimacy that can't possibly be present. And when I specify that I only date locally or not looking for a FWB situation - I think those things should be respected and trying to convince women that they're not worth getting to know if they're not willing to 'hook up' is just a bunch of bullying from the man's side. The positive to that is - they show their true colors and you're not wasting your time with those losers.


True dat....men who press for sex from the get go are just man whores. And to call a woman who respects herself enough to want to get to know the person before being intimate a prude, frigid, jaded, etc etc are just words men use to put a woman down kick them to the curb.....they aren't worth it

Women in the U.S. are colder and more jaded as a rule. It's just the material culture.
In the Philippines, they are warmer and have traditional values. Plus it's 10-1 women to men on islands. American women are great, but spoiled.
If you want responses, this is not the place. Go to any site in the Philippines and you will be hammered with responses, daily. It will become a fulltime job just keeping up.
Get a ticket for less than $600 rt right now. That is a honest and realistic answer. My sisters and women friends agree.

American sexual "hang ups" are another problem. No wonder the rest of the world is laughing at us. Well, that, along with our president and PETA.
For those "pushy" bullies who are not honest about what they want, a quick knee to the groin will cool them off. It should be the first thing taught in Phy Ed class.

Lucky you living in the Philippines - great ratio! I have a friend who spends a god part of the year in Europe & she's told me that Europeans are much more open about their sexuality. (must be our Puritan origins here in the States!)laugh
As for kneeing someone in the groin, I don't think I've been that angry at someone to want to do that.
(except for a certain someone in our executive branch - I'd like to do it as pay-back for all of the women
he's been nasty to. I know the secret service would be on me in a minute, but it's be worth it. & before anyone over reacts to this comment it's just a fantasy) laugh pitchfork

I think te advise should go to both, women an men alike

Reciving answers for women with two sentences it's boring, If I asked abour your dailylife and she answer: I work (and that is all), where can I go with that¡

Instead she could say: I wakr by six, take the bus, bla, bla, bla

Then I hace enough information to star sharing point of view
