If you want a response

I don't respond to form letters. If you were to send me an email and it had forward at the top or if I had an indication that you had sent me something that was some generic message you send out to everyone, I simply don't respond. I just don't feel like I should have to put any effort into something after you already showed me you saw me as a dime a dozen kind of girl. Does that mean that I expect a 20 page email complete with flowery language? Nope. In fact, I actually prefer that you wouldn't do that, either; it still seems fake or like a form letter. It seems like you're trying to be slick. I don't want games. I'd rather you be you. If you're funny, tell me a joke. If you are more of the serious type, tell me about your day. Though, really, you can simply start with "Hi, how are you?" and hit send. I will be much more likely to reply to that than something I feel like you created to save you time and energy and thoughtfulness. It just seems disrespectful to me. Would you want a woman to talk to you with someone else in mind? Would you want a woman who really wasn't paying you any personal attention? No. You wouldn't. You wouldn't want to bother with someone who couldn't be bothered to talk to you.

 I have long ago accepted that women on this site especailly attractive ones get so much mail that odds are, they will not have the time to respond, even with a simple you seem like a nice guy but not for me. There is just too much of an imbalance between men who are looking and women who are interested in being found.

I individually write every message, I try to make it revelant and meaningful as possible as I can with the 25 or so words that are likely to get read, but truth is I get less than a 1% response rate.
Not the Whole Truth but the truth that I can see.

 I cannot offer you any explanation of what does and doesn't with with other women, but please, whatever you do, don't send a woman a message that says how unique you think she is with the words forwarded message left at the top.

 Well said, if you cannot take the time to be original, then you get what you deserve.
