Ok, I need help in not sending off an angry message to this guy...I KNOW I should just blow it off, but I want to tell him how RUDE and condescending it is to say:

"Sorry, but we're definitely not a good fit...Good luck."

Yes, it's a canned Yahoo response but there ARE other choices...this one is just SOOOO rude!

And FWIW, there were no details in his "what he wants in a match" that I didn't fit...so why be so rude to me in return???

Not rude at all. First, at least he responded--so few do! And secondly, I just don't find that offensive. It's a way of saying "We have nothing in common." It's certainly nicer than the truth, which might be "Geez, lady, what makes you think I'd be interested in YOU?" LOL

Hi Y'all,

I believe that what we say in the South works well:

"If you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all".

I would much rather speculate on why they did not return my wink/email, than to have a reason for my 'reading pleasure'! I really don't think about it for more than about 3 seconds, if I hear nothing. Have not gotten an auto response from Match, as of yet, but I am sure right now that I would rather not get one!

I was raised by my Gramama; the most "you Better be a Lady" person on God's green earth, and I write thank you notes too...but THOSE are polite!

'nuff said

Truly,
Cupcake
