Whats the deal with this one....if you're taking a break from dating why would you leave matching on? Besides thatif you are taking a break why close a match for this reason, you could leave the match open until a later datewhen you're ready to start dating again.

I think the main thing to realize is that the reason for the close really doesn't matter. They close because they aren't interested or don't think it would work.


Some people choose real reasons and others probably choose what they think "sounds" better. Maybe they think this takes the "personal" nature out of the rejection.I highly doubt someone that chooses this reason really is "taking a break" from dating unless something happened that day before they shut off their matches. It just probably is the way they close their matches.


Just focus on the matches that want to talk with you...they are the ones that have the potential for success.
