if i get a reply i dont want...like couples/men...i just block, then delete.  no 2nd or 3rd emails ever occur unless they have multiple accounts or open a new one.  its not my fault they cant read the first line in my profile.

Men email me repeatedly even though my profile plainly says I am involved with someone else. The first time I do not respond. The second time I ask them politely to stop emailing me. The third time I delete unread.

greetings Op and Aall

like juliaoceania, my profile also states i'm with someone, not looking, yada yada.  i too receive emails (got one just today) from Men looking.

i always look at emails in case it's a question, or a discussion i would like to have, He's someone that knows someone i know, something.  and in that case i respond accordingly.  however, if it's a pick up email, i simply block and delete.  end of story.  there is no need to respond since my profile is explicitly clear i am not looking..

well wishes,
gemmie

I've never really felt that it was right to NOT reply to a first, decent email...in other words, I'm not speaking of the plainly obnoxious/disgusting/presumptious ones.  But once I have done that...and I get a few from people that must not have read my profile or my posts indicative of my thoughts and feelings on a wide variety of subject...then I owe them no more, especially when it begins to get pushy or any of the other adjectives I used above.  I must be lucky...I've had very few people contact me in a rude or obnoxious manner or who kept on when they were told that we didn't mesh.

Their strategy is that if they get you into ANY type conversation, that's half the battle. Tis best not to respond after things obviously turn against what you have told them.

Rely once to first message once with a "Thanks but no thanks" style responce and then ignor unless they bring other matgters to the table and you are happy to converse with them as long as they don't try to enveigle you into their family.

Not onlyu block them just delete the message unread.  They'll get a message that you have done so when they check their side to see if you have read their message.

I'd have said thanks but no.. following email from them would have been quite rude (what? are you fucking STOOPID??), then block.

I've never understood the folks that continue to email after the "no thanks" emails... what.,.are you seriously a maso?  SOD OFF!!

LOL



Thanks for the chuckle, GT...i haven't read or heard "sod off" in AGES.

I have recieved from a Poly couple more than a few mails, I have told them on more than one occasion I am just not interested.  This morning I got a very rude mail from them that went on and on and on and on.................................. ad nausem.  And at the end they STILL expressed they wanted to "get to know me and have me join their family"
 
Now I have nothing against Poly relationships but they are not for me and why in the world would these people keep pursuing me when I have made it more than clear in polite and respectful terms that I am JUST NOT INTERESTED.
 
What do I have to do to get through to them, I finally today sent them back a likeness in content mail (i.e, RUDE) and told them they were blocked and then did so but I am wondering, why would they continue on such a course with me and from the looks of it, others?
 
Sincerely,
 
Marsha


I've been getting massages for close to 25 years, so frankly...I don't understand the problem.

That sounds about right. Maybe some men (and possibly some women) think that women don't have adequate fortitude and resolve to back up their boundaries, so try to "baffle them with bullshit", lay guilt trips on them, etc.

For many (most?) men, meeting women is going to be a numbers game - maybe these guys succeed with their guilt trips (or whathaveyou) some acceptable percentage of the time.

Or, maybe the opposite is true in this case and they are just fixated on you!

Okay, Marsha. You and I have known each other for what? 12 years now?

Just give 'em the old SoCal treatment. Lay it out there and if it doesn't work, set them straight, and ignore.

I'd offer the use of his TallKewlness...but I know how no nonsense you can be and you don't need a backup!

It's great to see you here!
