Totally amused right now. Just got a miffed email via the dating web site from a guy whose initial email I had not responded to. I responded to this one and pointed out that I was well-acquainted with the writer he had alluded to in his personal description (co-opting a quote describing the man). Said writer was known for his philandering, emotional instability, addictions and general narcissism. Would-be suitor was unmollified by my explanation.
My advice is just to think about the image you are conveying in your profile. And don't take offense when people take you at your word (or someone else's co-opted words, LOL).
My one dating site's profile contains no information about myself, except some statistics and like 30 questions answered. lol.
I'm just there, seeing what's goin' on.
Did you actually get any messages or message anyone? I don't respond to guys with less than 30 questions answered - I don't think they're serious about it.

Do you get a lot of reponses? Are most of them rude, crude, or of quality? (I have no experience with any type of online dating, clueless...) I just noticed that you have no profile here.
Well a mini-profile when I actually clicked on it...

Obviously, I need to maintain the secrecy of my superhero identity.
A good 50 percent of my emails are from a 20-somethings who are looking for NSA with an older woman. About 25 percent are from guys who are respectful but utterly not compatible. About 25 percent are from pretty decent guys who I'd like to go on a date with.
I have a friend who would talk to women online but never ask them out.
I've run into a few of those. It mystifies me.
But then I also had some guy who sent me one email, and when I responded, asked me to set up a date with him rather than answering any of the friendly questions I had asked him, except to say he was bored and lonely. He said he didn't want to "exchange hundreds of emails" and wanted to meet to determine chemistry - yeah, dude, me too, but I at least rank a little back and forth, ya know?

I don't get messaged by anyone except for Arabs and Nigerians.
