Status: offline 		You know, over time I have met some INTERESTING people here. Some that are brilliant, some charming., some even commonplace........

Now once upon a time I wrote a stupid chicken dance. I understand that you get the shit beat out of you constantly. But your fucking profiles...........

However; to talk to someone who catches your eye....be it deep blue eyes, a turn of phrase, a kink in a ideal expressed or a reserved look, a certain indefinable something which you have labored to include in your resume...... frenchpet help me with the spelling as I can only say it phonetically....... a jenesaiquois....... you often sit there arms akimbo and lay a one liner in your profile and you expect us to be a Benjamin D'Isreali or a Foucault (couldn't help that (in my mind not a great speaker at all )) And I am supposed to say something other than you are pretty and expect to hear angel bells or some shit when we speak to you.....

Yet mostly, on this site, those who cry that they are oppressed with dick pictures and wannabees and players and so on will in a minute give a one-liner a pass (cause you are on a sex site) and will consider everybody trying to fuck you.......

You think too much of yourselves, I suppose.

Is that what you really think?

Curiously,
Ron

Status: offline 		now this is funny since I just posted the same thread from the opposite point of view in the ask a master section.

I think what it really all boils down to is a fear of rejection.

You see that persons name and you get that tingly feeling and you think they are so smart and so good looking and so far above you.

It is worth the risk of opening yourself up because mabye if they find out you are interested in them they will become interested in you.

oh btw, who is it that you like? enquiring minds want to know **grins**

Isnt it interesting kiss how the responses on that thread are just sarcastic and rather ...well.. not deeply thought through...

I guess it matters how one asks a question.
Ron does have a rather unique way of posing his questions.

Thot provoking.
No.
But i sure would like to be responded to as respectfully as i thought to write.
Do i then think too much of myself?
perhaps in the others mind...but i hope not in my mind.

No matter the email i receive, i always try to respond with politeness, respect and genuineness. Even tho i might want to say F*** Off or wtf. But i admit, today i responded rather sarcastically to one email. Master thought my response was done well.

Dont we all judge another more harshly then we do ourselves?

You know Ron, for all the times i have marveled at your use of the english language and read your posts and either shook my head or marveled... i never read your profile until tonight. May i ask seriously? What is the matter with a woman if they think so highly of themselves as to turn your profile into the trash heap of fools?

Status: offline 		When I say "Hi" I usually do it with one-liner - I dont write novels in my first message. But, my one-liner usually says that I read the profile and why I find it interesting, its never "Hi, how are you?". Ok, I write two-liners

Ron, i will admit that -- for the first time -- i have deleted email. i don't feel my best, and because i morphed my nick, i was recycled through "new members" and am bit overwhlemed by all the responses.

i will also admit i am more inclined to respond to a longer email, particularly if the Man indicates in some way that He has read my profile. By this, i do not mean He SAYS He has read my profile, and then invites me to join His poly family. (My profile states i am not interested in poly Men.)

Ideally, what i try to do is understand that every email is a compliment from the author, who found some reason to compose it and send it. Sometimes, i say "TY for writing"; other times, i say "If You are interested in me, please tell me about Your values and how they affect Your daily life." As You can imagine, not many Men grasp what i am asking and respond, but some do, and eventually i may speak to them in a Yahoo IM. Some will continue to be of interest; others will not.

i wouldn't say i think so highly of myself that only a Great Man will do...but i think highly enough that only a Man wih Great Character and Honor will do. Add to that the need for physical attraction; compatible kinks, etc., and You have some idea why i am still single.

i certainly do not feel that Men i choose not to pursue a relationship with are not good Men; they are just not right for me.

Status: offline 		I have received countless one liners and countless novels. Ironically the one that I did respond to was the simplest, purest one line. I knew immediately because it caused my heart to skip a beat. It has been the only message I've received to do that. Can't explain why. Also, ironically he is the only one that I had hotlisted. And Ron, he didn't even mention cheese either...go figure.

i agree; Ron's profile is well thought out, presents both himself and his situation well, and is a model profile for those out there (just why do you have to live in frozen tundraville--if you were closer, i'd be all over you like chocolate sauce on ice cream).

i wish you well.

Status: offline 		I'll agree there... a one-liner email may very well catch my attention. But when I click on the profile, darn it all, I want to see something there! grrrrrrrrr!

And yeah, I like to look down the list of interests!

So....YOU wrote that stupid chicken dance??? (The one they insist on doing at wedding receptions?) I want you dead.
