Hi all, just want to understand why a woman will engage in convo then just ignore you. Not desperate at all but a lot people with no manners. Just politely say no thanks. And couples the same, send pic and like it then nothing. Help please |

Sometimes I change my mind about wanting to meet someone.
They might say something that suddenly makes them sound like a twat, or an arrogant arse, or a psycho.
Obviously this renders arranging a meet unwise or unsafe.
People are entitled to a change of heart without being branded 'timewasters'. |

"But saying thanks but no thanks is so difficult ? "
I'm always polite, but sometimes, yes.
Men often simply will not accept it and start arguing or being abusive. |

"Really frustrating, I explain to couples I am straight and they seen ok then nothing. "
Are you straight though? The reason I ask is that people on here sometimes find that no guys put straight on their profile so maybe they were really looking for a bi guy and then when they realised you weren't, decided not to meet. |

Ignoring people is often the simplest way to end the conversation, esp for those like us who find that saying thanks but no longer interested leads to abuse. |

One can but why wait to be abused. We get abuse when single men who clearly haven't read our profile, as they address me - stevie get asked to read it and come back if still interested. |

I read this tiresome argument so many times on here that "the bad guys ruin it for good guys like me"
It's utter hogwash.
You make your own way here. Nobody else is to blame for your failure.
Couples and women don't reply for good reason, and if that happens you move on...after all they were only going to say no, so you'd have been no better off... |

I'd like to think I am not an idiot either.
But how does a single female or a couple know that you or I aren't? Just because you say you aren't? Don't you think the 'idiots' say exactly the same thing? |

Good point!
Those that think others ruin it for them imagine the couples and women who don't reply are missing out on so much...
It smacks of arrogance |

Imagine if you got to meet them, played and THEN they ignored you! If you feel that THEY were being rude (maybe because they are) then count it as a near miss for YOU!
Hope that helps... |

It's not arrogance it's just people engage in convo then all of a sudden nothing. If u get a positive reply and exchange multiple messages then nothing how can one work that out. Just say that u are no longer interested that's all. It won't kill me |

Well, as someone pointed out earlier, maybe you said something that changed their mind, without you being aware of what it was.
Or it could have been someone leading you on for their own amusement, ...a man pretending to be a woman. That happens a LOT on here. They suddenly get bored of it and stop... |

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum |
Not just women, all members on here do it. I've had chats tail off, I've had men tell me they want to see me regularly yet I never hear from them after the meet, I've had men message me for a meet then ignore/delete the message I send back with dates and times I'm free.
Just get used to the fact there are a lot of bullshitters on here and you'll be a lot happier. |

OP, I don't think it is women or men, you do have I believe lot of married men that are not available to meet (because their wife doesn't know) and some that are fantaisists.
I believe it is the same for women.
Then you do have couples that want people to look at them but will not go the next step although they state otherwise. Not mentioning the fake profiles.
So overall like in life, lots of people not being honest with others and themselves, but they are a lot of genuine people too.
Now this is my experience/my understanding of it.
I am not saying this is it but my perception of it.
I would say move on and don't let this affect you... |

Going back to your original question, the short and unhelpful but true answer is none of us know the reason and nor do you. It is not considered 'time wasting', generally speaking, if someone talks to you for a while then goes quiet. Not all fab messages between people lead to sex. She was trying to find out more about you as a person - get some idea of your personality and character, that she couldn't get from your profile. As someone above mentioned, something along the way caused her to think you're not for her. That's not time wasting. It's not impolite to ignore on fab. The FAQ says so. Some ladies on here get, say, 100 messages a day. It's both unreasonable and and unrealistic expectation to think she will answer every single one. There is nothing you can do except improve your chances of the lady wanting to keep chatting to you and that, my young Jedi, is something no one but yourself can help you with. |

But by no longer sending you messeges they are showing you that they arn't interested in you anymore.
Maybe your last messege to them made them realise that they simply don't want to meet you. Often the easiest way to deal with that is to simply stop messeging you.

Maybe you're just not doing enough to hold their interest...people are often talking to several people at once and just drift away from conversation never to return... |

They are just on here passing time its more interesting than dating site, if someone has been on here over 3 months without a meet its highly unlikely that they will start now just move on nothing you can do about it |

Hmm I have no verifications but have met people, maybe on some circumstances its called discretion, especially near where I live!!!! And I'm definitely not a fake |

OP I do this all the time, several times a day. I am NOT a time waster and I do so very much want to meet someone for no strings. I give guys the benefit of the doubt and on the rare occasion I spend some time chatting to someone I might like the look of, more often than not the conversation will either turn to dirty chat too soon (for my liking) or I detect something in the guy that sets off alarm bells. You might not like this but you've potentially put these women off by something YOU have said or done.
Don't question, analyse or blame the woman...move on and change your approach. |

People change their mind. Which IMO is fair enough
I (Mrs) have chatted with many men and after a while it can become tiresome...especially if we can never find a time to meet... (It is strange how so many single men cannot meet at the weekend!).
Anyway, when I get bored with someone I have never met it is sometimes easier to stop replying to their messages (saves time and hassle).
My advice is, if they are up for a meet do not hang about...also learn to read the signs and move on.

"Most just wanna chat and after a while they get cold feet lol."
I've had this too, it's annoying but I just accept it will probably happen again.... Everybody's different, some just simply don't want to progress ... For whatever reason. |

I have found that being polite and replying to any message makes some men think you are interested in meeting them. They can become rude if you,during the conversation you state that you were just conversing and not interested in meeting. |

I agree there but you could still say "sorry but you have just made me realise you are a fucking twat.... good bye" then block them x |

Spot on, most guys want a shag today or tomorrow the impatient ones are binned. If they get abusive they make a rod for their own back and are blocked  |

Believe me that approach doesn't always work...currently telling a young chap in no uncertain terms that I'm not interested and gave my reasons why yet he continues to push....now I'm getting ready to block him as he wont take no for an answer  |

But its easy to blame someone else for their failings than actually sit down and think about how to improve their chances or what they could be doing wrong because of course, its never their fault  |
