Really?

I need to further elaborate on my online dating blog post from before. Lately I have been creeping around on okcupid to much. I am having trouble figuring out why there is so little response from the women on okcupid. I may not have the most visual, financial, or novel appeal that could exist. The problem I am finding is that women sign up on the site, put themselves out there as looking or interested and don't respond at all. I have sent out several short messages and hardly ever get a response. I like to think the messages are clever and not to committing on their end. At this point, I don't think most of them even know how to respond to messages.

Sure, I did see a related report on the morning news once. This expert was on saying that women get overwhelmed with messages when they join such a site. I can see where that may give them a reason to not check messages. I just can't see the point of joining a dating site so you can ignore anything that come your way. What is the point of a novel approach to dating if you don't capitalize at all? I doubt sprucing up my profile would help at all. I don't want to exaggerate so much that I am lying. I think it is pretty straightforward. I rarely have anyone look at my profile from what I can gather on that website. Mabye most of the women join the site so they can take the quizzes and enjoy the personality questions available. I just don't know. It is more likely that if I did know, I wouldn't be creeping around online for dates.

Maybe I need to lower my standards and send everyone a message. I have been excluding women with children for the most part so far. I don't have my filters set very specific. I mainly look at the last time they were on so I know whether or not they are an active person.

For the record, I can't quite figure out women who list themselves as bisexual. That turns me off to them right away. Committ one way or the other ladies.
