Be cafeful what you message!

March 18 2019

So I've been on here about 12mths and the messages I sent when I was new were very lame and getting nowhere. Now over time you tweak things around profiles, messages that sort of thing. Now my question is that because of the lame messages has the opinion of whom you sent the message to already been set in stone meaning you've done your dash and dont bother messaging again. - Posted from rhpmobile

    I believe people can change and second chances. That’ll probably be the type of people that reply and you want to hang with

    If it was simply a case of "Hey what r u up to tonite" and you've improved, than by all means show me that you have. I certainly had no idea what I was doing when I started here. (If, however, I declined and you followed up with another message insulting or abusing me; don't bother. That ship has sailed.)

    Sometimes you only get one chance to make a first impression - this is dependent on the person you message or are communicating with. Other times people understand and are willing to give a second chance. I’ve evolved so much since joining rhp. I’m sure some have formed opinions of me which can’t be shaken and that’s fine because that’s who I was at that point in time of my journey - i can’t change that. Experiences have led to growth and change and I’m not the person I was then and if someone chooses to not give me a second chance then that’s their prerogative and I understand.

    I might say something along the lines like "Go back, re-read my profile and send another message, please". Most of the time they do. :) Yes, I have met several people from the 2nd message and a face to face apology from their 1st message. It does say a lot to me about who they are. I can't fault that.

    I think it’s entirely subjective... So pick a path and walk it.....

    If you do attempt a 2nd message after a certain period of time...make reference to the first one, or knowing that you tried once before. I really dont like when I get the same message over again, from the same person...because they forgot they'd already previously sent one. Not everyone is memorable..But reminding a woman of that fact isn't going to work in your favour! 🤣

    I just want to make note that even if you haven't sent a message for 4 mths and when you send a message it shows the past message which makes me cringe a bit... I get that its subjective..

    When I first joined a guy messaged me and I said no because he was a swinger and I wasnt really sure what it was all about. A few months later he messaged me again, we met, caught up a few times and are still friends. So if someone has really got your interest, give it another go and good luck.

    Just because they didn't respond on the first message don't assume it has anything to do with you or what you've done. People have all sorts of things going on it's actually highly unlikely that you had anything to do with it. Just be respectful about it, if they've said "thanks but no thanks" you would want to have a solid reason why things might be different now. But everyone has a block button most people know how to use it, if they really don't want to receive anymore messages from you there is an extremely simple way for them to achieve that. We are all the centre of our own universe and likewise we are not the centre of other people's.

    Dash not necessarily done. But it becomes a 'watch and see' situation. Case-by-case basis. Of course you should be careful with your message writing. But you should still try to have fun with it. And you should naturally improve if you keep at it.

    Depends on the person, I can be quite clear with my answer and I / we will always reply to a message if they took the time. However have had several messages from the same person being persistent and the messages got more enticing and interesting. The curiosity got me and surprisingly I was was very surprised, I'm always up for a fun conversation and if the shoe fits...... this has happened on two occasions. I've even sent messages saying I'm interested but your reply will be whether I answer back and continue to go further.

    I also think sometimes messages are open to interpretation depending on what’s going on in the receivers life. Sure some are black and white, straight down the line can’t read anything extra into but but then others words can be taken as they weren’t intended by the sender, that leads to potential confusion and misunderstanding and can throw things off track.

    Dash Done. I always reply to messagss, even the lame and rude ones that aren't deserved of a response. Im very adamant when I say no and it wouldn't 100 percent be based on the quality of the message.

    Messages and profiles offer an insight into a persons mindset and personality How someone chooses to portray their personal brand through their words gives insight into their attitudes and ego However, the other side of that sword is that the written word has the luxury of time behind it which can give rise to a facade, an unrealistic portrayal of a character that the author WANTS others to see and believe And that’s why I stopped giving people profile and message advice a long time ago All that said, most people do have a capacity to learn and improve, but when a sexual element is in the mix, guys in here in particular are hand an impatient, demanding, and self sabotaging attitude of “get sex” Can someone “take 2”? Of course But that’s more up to them, than anything that you do. Probably shoulda said that way up there ☝🏻 🤣

    I looked at this forum yesterday, came back today hoping to see that the bridge jumping comment was gone. How utterly disgusting that it was ever written, let alone published and allowed to stay there. Absolutely shameful behaviour!!

    Don't take it personally if you didn't get responses from women. They may not have been interested in meeting anyone at the point in time. I've noted ok my profile that I'm not after hook ups nor casual sex anymore and still get messages from men who are just after those very things. So my opinion will be based on the level of respect or disrespect they have shown me in the first time. That is difficult to shake. But if you're keen on a person, patience and perseverance is the key. Keep it honest and real. I hate messages that brag how they'll make me come multiple times. 😄. Good luck

    Your post was definitely uncalled for and very harsh. It was random in my opinion or did I miss something? Why so angry? Are you ok? I appreciated it that you have apologize.

    Gr8distraction I find it ironic that you put up a comment like that in this post. This forum is for fun and informative purposes to which you add nothing but to put someone down to boost your own ego. Mental health is a serious issue these days and to put up a comment like that says a lot about your character. Yes you have apoligized but was that because you've been called out or are you genuinely sincere? Sincerity is very hard to convey online, so I suggest a bit of self reflection and put a some thought into future messages. TDH
