| Why?... Because it's easier to say nothing, than to respond kindly and respectfully say "Thanks for writing, but I'm not interested"....
That said, I do think there are times when not replying is the best course of action...

| If you were to walk up to someone and speak to them, wouldn't you expect a replye? How is this so different. You are trying to meet someone.

| It happens, and it bites. Just look at it as similar to approaching someone in real time and they give you the cold shoulder. Don't let it put blinders on ya for someone who will reciprocate your feelings.

| Reddried, i haven't replied but to one, and what a mistake that was, won't get into details, lol, goofy, goofy,goofy, but anywho, many times i see they live so far away not worth the time replying, or i hit the profile and they are a different denomination, or none ( i'm looking for a certain fit there) or they have kids ( i don't want anything to do with anyone's kids) maybe if they are grown and out of the house, MAYBE, lol,,, they don't smoke, or they are physical fitness buffs,, nope, nope, they don't have any description of themselves on their profile, nope, i wouldn't respond because of many little diddies, i'm sure that's all it is, it's not your pic you're a hottie sitting there at Sterling State, lol,,, i hit that beach all the time, too close and pretty not too. See ya this summer at the beach,,though you won't know it's me looking at ya through my shades, cause i can't put a picture up, lol

| For all the men and women who regularly reply to "All" emails, kudos to you for having the patience and/or "niceness" to do so. I personally do not do so and I don't feel bad for this. I am a nice person and I do care about people in general and I do answer some emails. The ones that are post related, clearly friendly only or are from someone I may find myself interested in from a dating perspective, I answer.
Why is it that so many get so upset when emails are not answered? Is it because they didn't get an answer to their email, or is it because someone they were interested in did not show that interest back? I think it's more likely the latter. In which case, the email saying I'm not interested doesn't really make them feel much better.
Also, with all the threads going around about "I've been played" "Why are there so many players on here" etc, etc., is it possible that all the obligatory responses, just because someone sent us an email may just be what is making some people feel played? I don't want to lead someone on or play them. Any response from me to someone who may be interested in me is likely to give that person some kind of hope/affirmation that I am interested in them, even if I'm not. Isn't this "playing" with someone, although unintentional? Just something to think about.
To the OP...you will not always get a response to your emails even if they are nice and not rude and to the appropriate age group, etc, etc. If someone is not responding, it's a safe assumption that they are not interested. Don't get upset by this, write another email to another lady that you find interesting and see what happens. Eventually, you will find the right one.

| MagTag,,,,, exactly, word for word, couldn't agree more, i wonder the same thing, where do these people get all the time to answer every wink, viewed your profile today, and e-mails and or msg's sent? I don't have that kind of time, and in the real world a stranger don't greet you with all this hoopla, all they expect is a hello, which takes alot less time than sending a msg back, then another one cause you're sure to get another reply, silly waste of time if one is not interested for whatever reasons they aren't? People are a bit too touchy on this weird world of internet social circles i do see? WOW, sorta scarry.

| I do respond to all emails.
And at times this has been 20 some pages of mail.
It isn't a lot of fun to do so, but it's fair.
I only delete without responding winks or comments from shadow people - if the comments are objectionable or crude.
