Him: “how about i bring a dozen rose showing up at you door and if you think i m ugly then you can keep the rose and tell me to go home ”

[Little does he realize that I hate flowers. In my opinion, flowers serve as death warrants and are only acceptable during break ups and funerals].

Her: “Thanks for writing me, but I have just met someone and want to see how it develops.” (Click response).

[So not true].

Moral of the story
Ladies and gents, don’t ever appear so desperate that you have to beg someone to go on a date with you. It’s just sad and, quite frankly, it just doesn’t work. Sorry ’bout it. Oh! And don’t end every email with a smiley face. It doesn’t support your case one bit.

If someone’s not interested, they’re not interested. It’s one thing to have someone lead you on, but if someone flat out tells you they aren’t interested, you might want to save yourself the trouble and just take a hint the first time around.

So… if you send out an email, and you get an auto response expressing disinterest, the only email you should be sending is a thank you email for the courtesy response, as impersonal as it was, because most people won’t even do that; they just ignore you… which you should also take as a sign of disinterest.

Happy online dating!
