A few questions for you? Do you ever get junk mail in your household USPS deliveries? Do you respond personally to each and every one? Every time you send a message to someone who expresses what they are looking for and you are not that (whatever IT is), you are sending the equivalent of junk mail. Some people set their junk mail folder's parameters to being pretty specific about distance, age or weight... and so if you fall outside of their limits, they never see the messages. Next question: Are you sending out most of your messages to the new users? The reason I ask is that new users in particular often receive at least 100 cmails a day. Do you have any idea how long it would take to personally read and answer that many messages? Before I hid my profile, I stated clearly that I was owned. I still got at least 20 messages/day. So even discounting all of that, you need to know that the polite response along the lines of "Thanks, but no thanks." is often repaid by rude and nasty emails. Accusations of not being female, insults about appearance or weight and statements that we must be fakes abound. The smarter women here learn quickly that not giving a response sometimes prevents abusive replies. And finally, before you continue feeling like you are in the right, you should try to wrap your head around the notion that no answer is a response.
