Author	Thread: "Online Now" Message Problems
Admin	"Online Now" Message Problems Posted : 9 Aug, 2014 08:18 AM This happens to me a lot, okay, 99.9% of the time. I see a profile of a woman who's online now and that I meet the requirements to message. I prefer them being online now to possibly guarantee that they see messages compared to the offline who might not see the message for years. Anyways, usually the profiles I see state that the woman will welcome messages and will message back. I would send a message telling them a few things about myself to give them an idea who I am positively and ask them a question based on their interests, to get to know that person a bit, attempting to strike a nice conversation. I would see later on that the message was read, but I would get no reply. :( Is there any positive reason that this happens to me? I have never dated, so I'm not experienced of course. Any positive comments will be appreciated. Thanks. Post Reply
View Profile History	"Online Now" Message Problems Posted : 9 Aug, 2014 08:45 AM It's women who treat men like commodities. You did not meet their arbitrary value of attractiveness. They don't feel the need to say a friendly hi or have the courtesy to press the button that says 'send a polite message saying we would not be a match'. This is what happens when women are told they are to be worshiped and deserve only the best 1% of men, and men have to compete for attention like animals. Don't take it personally. Maybe there are a few real Christians on here. Good luck. Post Reply

Just you mentioning that you haven't dated before, I will jump in here and assume that would also include the time you've spent on an online dating site. Brother what transpires here vs. what transpires in the "real world", are to totally different experiences(smile)! There's no such thing as "online etiquette" when interacting on online dating sites, much less Christian ones unfortunately! With that said, don't let non responses of emails deter you from continuing to send notes to profiles where you might see potential. It may just be that ONE profile you send a note to, that could ultimately be the ONE(smile)! Don't let discouragement win in this journey your on in seeking God's best! Stay encouraged expecting God's timing in your quest! Now to Kev2143, to defend and support the sisterhood here at CDFF and to sister's anywhere for that matter....I will say this over and over and over again until some brothers, again you see I said " some brothers" get it, please whatever you do be careful how you lump, clump and label women thru your own obvious and personal frustrations and experiences! I for one take this personally so I will speak out on it every time I see it happening(smile)! There are, including myself, fellow sisters in Christ who have high levels of integrity and respect for our brothers, despite our true differences! Lets' try something different for a change......like encouraging one other even when we don't want to(smile)lol!! Hey, you never know how that wild fire might spread! Be blessed. Post Reply
