When it's happened to me they are usually people who have tried to convince me to do things I'm not interested in. When they finally realise it's not going to work they delete my reply Unread as if it's a way of them coming out on top.

Were I in your shoes, my opinion would be, "Their loss."
Personally I'd rather find out right off the bat than waste time and effort on something that cannot and will never be.
They failed the litmus test right outta the gate. Terrific.

If you think it's their way of 'coming out on top', then that would be your personal interpretation of it.
Also, they may have hovered and read your response - you won't have a clue if they did that or not.

When I get those unwanted replies and delete, I'm thinking "they aren't worth my time and effort", not 'getting one over' the sender.
Most of us just shrug it off and ignore it.
If you are going to get your panties in a knot over it, that's your problem, nobody elses.
I think you need to grow a thicker skin.

Then why pose the question??

You obviously think they have 'one up on you' otherwise you wouldn't have posted such an asinine OP.
And you also stated in that OP "...even when they have obviously read the preview" of which you have no way of knowing whether they did or didn't.

I have to admit, I just can't get your POV on this. If I delete unread it has nothing to do with getting the last word, that strikes me as really weird. I delete unread because I've less than zero interest. There is no one- upmanship, it is not a type of retort. It is simply a deletion.

You have NO WAY of knowing if they read the preview or not.
You are just making stupid assumptions.
They could have deleted it without looking - you just don't know that.

As Camille said, there is no one-upmanship whatsoever.
I also don't get your PoV either.
And no, I don't find it amusing or even interesting.

Just how is it that you know complete strangers are using the delete button in the manner you say they are? IMO you are projecting.

Actually you are guessing. Assuming.

True, but unless you are the reincarnation of the Amazing Kreskin, I think what FD is saying is that your presumption in this matter says nothing at all about the deleter but is highly informative re you.

I caught this too, but was gonna let it pass. since it's been called out, I'll second his knee jerk reaction

As one poster said a deleted message just means no more of your time is being wasted take it as a lesson learned so you know how to weed out the fakes from the ones that are truly seeking. You really are getting great advice maybe you see it as hostile but consider what's being said.

I was curious if anyone else had noticed this, but it seems it's only me. Maybe I'm the only one who looks in the sent message section

We all look at the Sent Message section.
But, unlike you, we don't think the sender thinks it bothers us like you do.
You are making senseless guesses and projections that apparently nobody else does.
Why would that be??
Because most of us aren't sooo far up our own asses that we need to think that way.

Grow the fuck up!!

Status: offline 		You are not the only one but the point myself and others are trying to make is shit happens. You are not the first person this has happen to, I have had it happen and so have others. You can either put your BIG GURL panties on and look at it as a missed opportunity for that person or you can throw a tantrum for a deleted message. So what cha gonna do, shit or get off the pot?

If they disappear and don't write back, excellent. No more time wasted.

It boggles the mind why anyone would want to make up stories about that for themselves.
