andrea, what game do most have? like they pretend they are someone that they are not or play with her emotions?
Well yes but that wasn't really the direction I was going when making that statement. I think that men (and some women I've known) just have this game of sorts that they play when doing their online dating. Maybe my wording wasn't as accurate as I was thinking.. I can't think of the better word right now but for example, there were guys I would end up talking to online and then find out that they had the same talk, the same walk, the same everything when talking to a single girlfriend of mine. It's like they are rehearsed and say and do the same thing - the game. Does this make more sense??
But yes, to answer your question - sure, men and women both do that mental / emotional game playing. I personally detest it and have no tolerance for it but I know people that live their lives that way.
I blocked someone on both match and Yahoo just the other day. He wrote to me on match and I responded with the canned "I'm not interested" response. He then wrote to chide me on using the standard response so then I responded personally and spelled out in detail why we were not compatible (religion). Then he wrote back twice - I deleted these messages and blocked him. The next day he sent me a somewhat creepy e-mail on Yahoo so I also blocked him there and reported him to the site for harrassment.
Why anyone would continue to pursue someone when they've already been told NO, is beyond me. I guess the guy was desperate, or just plain creepy. Either way he doesn't have my phone number, e-mail, or last name so I'll be just fine.

I guess don't response might be the best advice.
They won't write/call you forever.
I dated a guy once and he text me one night saying he wanted to come to my place and kiss me. He was like, Oh, I won't go into your house...you just need to come out and give me a kiss. This really freak me out. After several weeks of text/emails he finally stop because i either say no or don't response at all.
Because the one link to block someone also happens to be the same link to report someone. That's why. Plus, he's not my type and there will never be a right time for him.
YOUR email. Block his email from reaching YOUR email. Who cares about the site's email.
I agree. I am sure he will just move on, I hope, but he creeps me out.
