Getting to know someone...

Getting to know someone...


Like so many others on here, I keep wondering why its so hard to get together with others. Now granted, yes, I'm a lone guy and there are countless others on here. Yet, I'm not looking to go straight into someone's bed. I like meeting people and learning about them. Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for anything serious, I'd love some adult fun; but I won't just grab anyone in sight and begin plugging away.

It's just so crazy that so many people tell you that they would like to get to know you. Then just vanish. Well, not even totally that, just never respond past that first or second message/email. While still posting to their blogs and everything.

If you aren't interested, don't tell someone you are. And if you do, at least have the courtesy and manners to tell them you decided you didn't. The world is filled with enough BS, why add to it.

Those same people often go on and on about how they can't find someone to even be friends with and how no one wants to seem to get to know them and how honest they are, while so many others aren't. PEOPLE its not that difficult, but you have to remember, to make friends you have to be a friend.

Friendships, like any other kind of relationship, takes time. If you don't want to or simply put in the time, don't expect anyone else to. It has to come from both parties.

Basically, if you want to get to know me. Talk to me, put in the time. Life is too short, to be the only one willing to make the effort.

Now, I wonder how many will read this and say, "well, he's not talking about me."

musealchemy, I'm a standard member too amd standard male members don't even get the 10 a day. I only receive but maybe 3 emails a month. And I'm not expecting an explanation and don't believe I'm owed anything, just would like to see some simple courtesy. And I'm not looking for happily ever after. But even with NSA, most women would prefer to actually get to know someone at least a little before opening their legs. Amd I'm hoping you are included in that group.

I just mean, do what you say you're going to. If you do want to get to know someone great, just don't tell them you do then never respond again. Better to just not tell them that at all if you aren't going to follow through or aren't sure you can. That's all I'm saying. And yes, I do understand that they will disappear sometimes. Its when they keep saying they can't find anyone after telling you that they want get to know you.

Either way, I didn't mean for it to seem like I was being hateful. I was just a bit irritated.

Can I just point out that most women are standard members and you have a 10 email a day allowance. This means if you get 100 emails, 90 of them are going to go unanswered unless you use the autoreponse feature.

As for people disappearing on you well this is supposed to be NSA not "happy ever after" which means people will disappear without a word sometimes. That's life. It may also mean that they've hooked up with someone or got chatting to quite a few and don't have the time/energy to deal with any more people. They don't owe you or anyone else an explanation as to why because there is no obligation on here as most people see it.

Yes in an ideal world people would do what you suggest but this isn't. Unfortunately.
