Default I took the advice of putting-"NO KIDS" in my ad and guess what????

Two woman replied and the responses were

"Well I only have One Child"

"In this day and age you won't find too many women who is 29 without kids"


Of course my reply to both of those lades were disrespectful for IGNORING my request and responding anyway knowing they had kids

Why would you intentionally be disrespectful? There was no reason to be. In fact, there never is.

Your best course of action was to simply not respond.

I was wondering what the next thread was going to be about. Joy of joys, another scintillating and provocative exercise ...

No I had to be nasty because I clearly said-"NONE" nlot "ONE". Not sure if that meant if she was desperate or stupid

Either way, you wouldn't want to deal with her, so why waste your energy? Unless you get your jollies out of lashing out at people like that?

Because I don't like my request being IGNORED. That's like a woman stating she is looking for a THIN guy and I respond saying-"Even Though I'm not skinny I'm very handsome"

I don't think I could date a guy who was this self absorbed. :-(

Yes, but you're the one posting the ad - you have the powah to ignore. Don't you feel kind of grand? Women are responding even if they don't meet the requirements! You are driving the bus...they are trying to get on the bus...

Don't swing at every punch. Hey, you're the King in this situation. You're only going to respond to inquiries that fit your specifications. Don't waste your energy on women that don't fit.

I dunno, if I was trying to date and posting the ad, I would not respond. Heck, can you change the font in your ad of the important criteria? I'd do it for the ones who can't seem to read.
