While I have an small idea based on the OP's attitude here that perhaps she was not as polite as she might have been, I would like to add something to this line of thought. I had a first chat with someone this week. I sent the person an email greeting here and they responded asking if we might chat via yahoo and I agreed. When we both got each other added and were on line I sent them a greeting and followed with the statement that if they were busy or already chatting we could chat later (when I chat I give the other person 100% of my attention and I want the same). They assured me that trey were avainalble to chat with me at that time, so we began with a few basic questions. Turns out that person was not living where their profile indicated and they had some major life situations not even hinted at in their profile. As i attempted to carry on some sort of chat conversation, they responded to me in single words, or sometimes short non-sentences. There were long gaps between my comments or questions and their responses. They asked me where I lived 3 times in a short chat and when I aksed a question about their intent to return to their stated home (from profile) or go someplace else when they moved from their current location (as they said they wanted to do) they were offended that I asked the question. I was trying to think of things to talk about, as they clearly were not holding up their end of the chat, not even trying to carry on any kind of a chat conversation. And remember it was they who asked to go right to a chat and not email a few times. So, I am sure they think I was rude and nosey and I think they were less then truthful in their bio (brand new, not simply old and out of date) and were rude in the chat by obviously not paying attention to the chat when I asked if they had time. So, 2 sides of a story, both the truth as we each see it (probably). Both most likely think the other was rude and I doubt we will chat again. But that doesn't mean we either one might be wonderful for someone else to chat with.
