IM only actually works for me about half the time...the rest of the time, I get the "missed instant message" notice in my inbox. On the up-side, I will likely talk to most anyone who IM's me. That doesn't mean that I'm actually interested in him, but I'm not rude enough to ignore the IM.

If a guy sends me a message, I usually answer, but if I'm really truly not interested, it might just be the standard "I don't think we would make a good match" reply.

Now, having said all that... All the good connections I've made online have come from messages, not IMs.

Maybe it would be a good idea to send a girl a message, then IM her when she's online, and follow up with another message. Keep the messages short, though, until she shows interest in continuing the conversations.

I have had several men IM me here. I don't mind it, though the response time is a bit slow.

The only thing about this site....... it will sometimes list someone as being online, when they are actually not. So don't feel bad if you don't get a response. She may not actually be online.

I hate IMing! I'd rather get to know someone in the forums first and then work up to e-mail and go from there.
