Just razzin' ya but I bet it made you crack up for real
If it makes you feel any better, I have no idea how my career is gonna start either. All these minor setbacks add up and before you know it I'll be one of those 30-year-olds chipping away at a degree. lol.
Actually, that's the very unfortunate part because if you like him, you'll slip right into the drama and a unsatisfying relationship. Even if there is no drama per se, if you don't want something, you don't want it. People often makes such concessions for those they like other things about and initially you're blinded, but when you wake up, you'll be deep in the midst of what you never wanted in the first place.
Your original idea was just fine! Short of totally ignoring them that is... You can always say "thanks, but no thanks." You're only 28! You don't have to do that! Protecting yourself from such temptation was exactly the right thing to do. Mark my words! If you go down this path, one day you'll remember them.
I know what you mean, but I am not really looking for my next husband just yet. And I do not want kids in the next few years either so I'm trying to enjoy myself. By your post I'd assume that you had a similar experience?
so is it the norm for guys to initiate email conversation, you write them back and then you know they've logged in, most likely a few times since you've emailed them back, yet they don't write back again? 3 guys have done that, just in the last week...wtf? I'm just responding to the things they say and ask..nothing rude or weird.
this is getting more and more bizarre and its actually becoming odder than my very brief experience on POF.
It is entirely normal for people to do that, from what I hear. It's also possible that even though they've logged in, they haven't quite figured out a response yet or they're surprised as hell that someone wrote them back.
I know that the first message I got back, I was like "wtf" because it was that unexpected.

really??? that's so weird! I write back right away. I gotta say, this slacking on their part is making me lose interest as it just makes them seem uninterested so in my mind, I think, what's the point?

Quick question, do you only respond to the things they say and ask, or do you also inject your own questions into the email?
I'm asking based on what you wrote above, and my own experience with email responses that are just straight one sentence answers to my questions without any expressions of interest or questions from them.

Regardless, I wish you luck!
I'm very detailed in my responses and ask about themselves too. I am interested in finding someone..believe it or not. Tough concept, I know, lol.

They could also be playing the online version of "hard to get", even though that would be pretty stupid too.
IDK. I'm still not entirely sure how the online thing works, some of these sites just absolutely suck. lol.
