I love reading profiles, probably because I like to observe...but then that's just me. I'm sure there're others who do too. Many prefer to simply get to know the person "from scratch" by talking to them. Others are just wankers..[8D]

Hello, I thought I'd answer your question. I personally read profiles. I'm looking for a certain type of person, and without reading their profile I would have no idea who they are. Though I do understand your frustration, because I too wonder if people read profiles. Most of the time I think they just send a 'hi' or 'wanna f*$&' kind of email. Some I guess don't care who they meet up with as long as they get to meet up with someone. That's the only reason I can figure they wouldn't read profiles. I don't know that there is any good advice, only just delete those who obviously haven't read what you're looking for. Don't waste your time responding. I always felt it was rude not to at least send a response, but if they're going to be rude enough to not read what you're looking for, then it can't be too rude to not reply to them. Right? Good luck to you.

Well, I personally read profiles. Because I don't want to look dumb if they're looking for something specific and I don't match up. Also because I like to see what they like and dislike to see if we might match up. Makes sense, really.

I read them. If I ever find one that both invites a message and seems right for me, I would send a message and it would be obvious that I had read the profile carefully. The problem I have with seeking for a dominant is that if their approach to this is passive, meaning they post an ad then sort through replies, then they are passive. I expect the relationship would be that way. I think that the kind of dominant I would respond to well would be more active, knowing what they want, going after it, and reading through ads instead of sitting on their butt waiting for emails, and then bitching about the chore of reading emails from people who made the effort to seek and write.

personaly if they dont invest the time to learn about you then they wont invest time in you.

You do have a point buuuut I don't think that'd necessarily be the case for everybody. Me, myself, am actively looking for a sub and actively messaging people. But not everybody writes out detailed profiles of what they want so it's tough to know. If one of these people saw my profile and messaged me then I'd at least talk to them to find out more about them. Looking for somebody is just an opening step. What happens after is what's really important, in my opinion.
