I think you have to realize she is probably communicating with a bunch of other dudes and she might actually have a life. You are in open communication so either ask her for a date or close the match.

I counted the other day and I have answered the first set of questions over 50 times. It gets old quick. As attractive women, I believe, get a ton of communication she probably doesn't want to waste her time answering a ton of questions once she gets to OC.
Well, I hope she finds someone more compatible to her. I have to move on.

LOL - I have 61 matches in various stages of communication right now, you are absolutely right about this.

I appreciate your perspective, but let me share something that you conveniently ignored. First, my first three emails were succinct. So, that disproves your point in keeping things short. Next, the reason why she sent a ice breaker andd the reason why women respond to my profile because it is one of substance. I know from past testimony. Lastly, the last email was written so she can close me out, not to attract her. Lol

Remember that some people are not meant to grasp abstruse argot. Lol but expound is hardly a word the average person can't understand nor am I looking for someone who isn't educated/cognitavely astute.

So, if she closes me out, which I hope happens, then my long email served its purpose.

Thanks again for the feedback, just read the whole exchange next time. Lol

I did read the whole exchange and didn't "convenient ignore" anything but I wrote enough to provide enough advice to help you.

"the last email was written so she can close me out"

You spent all that time to get someone to close you out! If that was the intention why didn't you just type 1 line telling her "please click on close".


"remember that some people are not meant to grasp abstruse argot. Lol but expound is hardly a word the average person can't understand nor am I looking for someone who isn't educated/cognitavely astute."
- Most people will grasp all your words but then realise they'd prefer not to date someone who writes like the architect from the matrix reloaded.

Also worth pointing out that some girls don't like "lol" and it irritates them because it's like text talk.
