Why do people get so worked up about the matches that are no longer matches? They've closed you, end of story, move on.

If you met in a bar, and you asked her "May I buy you a drink?" and she said "I don't think so" and walked away, what would you do? (Besides uttering a choice expletive or two) you would walk away and find a (better) match to get to know.

Mitchell, I don't think it is so much that she closed, it is that she responded to his questions then closed immediately after. It's strange.

I had sent first questions to a guy during the recent FCW. I had stated clearly on my profile that I was not currently a paying member, but would be active for the FCW. He responded to my questions, and sent me his, but when I went to respond I found that I couldn't because he had closed me after sending me his first questions. I figured he had some reason for doing that right after sending his questions, but I didn't spend any time wondering about why that was.
