Why are ppl so rude when turned down

December 31 2020

I received a message today, several in fact, the opening line was how sexy I looked as well as how my photos hinted at a naughty side.. He proceeded to give me his phone number, told me he lived alone in Docklands. I looked at his profile, he described himself as attractive, he had face pics up. He was not someone I was interested in, nor was attracted to.. He sent a couple of more messages. I decided to reply and thanked him for his interest but that interest was not returned.. I wished him well in his search. His reply was, what do you mean.. followed by another face pic. He told me it was the ultimate put down and wow your loss lady. As I was replying he followed up with your ugliness is matched by your rotundness. He then obviously removed and probably blocked me preventing my reply to be sent. I don't believe it to be "my loss" at all either. This was a guy in his 50's. I received another message from a guy who's reaction was totally different from the previous guy's when I sent the same polite message expressing my thanks for his interest however the interest wasn't returned etc etc.. He politely replied no worries and also wished me well in my search. I have been on this site a long time. I've never initiated a message to anyone but try to reply with politeness to those I feel deserve a reply. The obvious ones who do not get a reply are the blunt crass messages that I'm sure many get. I have met some great guys too btw. I don't profess to be anyone extraordinary but I do know what I like and the type of person I am interested and attracted to. . and that can vary, it's not all about looks. I am one of those ppl who actually reads a persons profile! The message can say so much about the person who sends it, what is said or not said can speak volumes. I must add that the rude replies to being turned down aren't as many as the ones who appreciate getting a reply. Anyway, first time I've ever started a post.. I read the forum posts and have occasionally added my two cents worth.. not for awhile though. I wish you all a Happy New Year.. Let's hope 2021 is better than 2020!

    90% of the men on here try to convince you that they are what you are looking for.even though you are looking for something completely different. Is easier to block than put up with their tantrums.

    Sounds like his loss to me. Don't change anything for idiots like that and don't let them get under your skin. You seem like a very sensible woman, enjoy the guys that respect women and ignore the others. Happy New Year, I hope it's a good one.

    Remember YOU choose them, not the other way around. They have to earn the privilege of the pussie. The ones who sent distasteful rmessages have actually done the screening for you. IMO it is best not to be emotionally attached during email conversations as you haven't met them. Invest in only the positive emails and who are a fit for you. Happynew year. Ms Foxy

    True colours shown by him and very early. Better than a couple of months into a friendship.

    I’m sorry this has happened to you. Good to see though that it’s not all men and that most are happy to accept a no. Someone who reacts upset must be very frustrated already, has a sense of entitlement about what they expect from this site and has fallen to the common issue we all are subject to that they don’t see there’s a person on the other side of the keyboard

    Sorry for your bad experience love. There are good and bad everywhere. Don't let one experience ruin your upcoming good ones. Glad it happened earlier. Learn from your mistakes and just hope for the best. Happy new year

    Yes the abuse you cop not just here but other dating apps is a bloody aussie disgrace. But hey its them behaving badly not you. So I think there must be a very big batch of karma getting around. 😆

    I've been called every name under the sun. Now l just use them for sport. If I'm not getting blocked at least twice a day by 9am I'm losing my touch 🤷‍♀️

    Because people let their ego's control their emotions. It's sad but seems to be getting worse as people in the world become more entitled.

    Sad, but the reality if the brittle ego If they carry on after hearing no, you dodged a bullet with your initial decision - theyre just nailing their coffin shut

    Are they? I don't know OP. I usually thank you them for having the dignity of coming back and respond to my message. I find strange is when you say " I just want to.pay you a complement, you are beautiful " and they say, " thank you you are not what I'm looking for " Paying a complement now is making a move in someone?

    It’s not only just single men (but likely still men) but we got an unsolicited new message the other day from a couple telling us how much they dislike our profile. We hadn’t had any previous contact but received a rather lengthy message telling us how crap our profile was. I thought I must have had a particularly bad time with spell check so went back to see if I couldn’t improve it to please these very important people. I was at a loss as our profile says what we want it to say so will just have to let these people dislike us from afar! 😂

    Those who reply like that are those who believe that either they are the bees knees or that if you are on here you just want to root anything. There are many like that they dont understand that most of us actually require a connection of some description & we dont just root anything with a pulse. We have been ripped by couples before our rules included other men calling me (Mrs) oppressed etc even though at that time I was the one with no interest in other men. Their loss Block & laugh at them.

    Unfortunately, people like to act out their alter-ego because they can hide behind the keyboards and phones. Never take it personally, rather it speaks volumes about the person themselves (regardless of their gender/ orientation and age). My communication with others is on the basis as if it is in person. Some people are great to converge with online and no sparks in person. Others, there is nothing at all. Some, its both ways. I'd say it is a combination of cognitive maturity and ability to self reflect - Just because we get older each year, does mean "actual" (mental) growth.

    Ms ppiffle, your photos are fab and you articulate what you’re after rather succinctly. We can’t control the behaviour of others, only our reactions. You’re obviously a lady of quality. That other person is not. I think you’re off to a cracking start!

    Short answer to your answer: lack of self-confidence and desperate need of love actually.

    I have been abused so many times I started blocking any guys I wasn’t interested in without even replying, I was so scared if their reactions. This year, I am replying. The kind ones deserve it and the assholes need it. It’s hilarious how they go from begging and changing their preferences to suit yours to all of a sudden you are the fattest ugliest pig around who they wouldn’t fuck even even with their friends cock. I would be lucky if they let me watch because that’s the closest I would ever get to sex again 🙄 Mate, your words mean nothing to me. You weren’t my type, now you definately aren’t. I don’t like people who can’t make up their minds, it was only 1 minute ago I was the most beautiful lady on RHP 😂 I think 🤔 you may have a bit of a split personality problem going on

    I don't know, we could write a book about interactions based on rejection style and responses to that. I think it's a good thing to respond when we feel it's appropriate, I had a template that worked a charm in the past but don't get into a back and forth. It's not my thing but some block afterwards to stop any chance of negative reactions. And why? Because people are human and rejection is difficult to cope with. It's curious women tend to start these topics and men, the 'why don't they reply' topics. Happy days 😊 xo

    I suppose its hard when you pay alot of money fir something and get your hopes up. It is a bit childish to get upset though. Its hard for most men to find someone! I apologise on there behalf

    Deep insecurities and a terrible case of oneitis. You can throw in a scarcity mindset too.

    I’m guessing that by the time that they have constructed a contact message to you, they’ve already emotionally invested in you so by the time that your reply finds them, they have already created expectations. The world is full of two types of people - value adders & value takers. Choose one and always leave the other.

    Absolutely agree! Well written 👏 And it’s these men that make women not want to reply If the interest is not returned. The drama just isn’t worth it sometimes! It’s polite to send a reply. But if you don’t get one well that is a response really isn’t it! No need to chase people down lol. I’ve gotten pretty quick on the block Button these days.

    But the real question is Why even bother giving this idiot the mind space to write about them. Seriously move in ignore the liars

    Yes some people are just plain rude! I agree if you cop that type of thing just block them. I feel that same about no answer when I message someone as it is not an answer it’s actually rude. I know that all the women must receive many messages, and when a guy is being a dick it splashes back on all guys! Some of us respect your choice snd can just move on. For me it’s hard enough being an introvert to even send a message to someone. The constant rejection without a response (yes I know I’m not going to be everyone’s cup of tea) and lack of communication is difficult to understand at times.

    At least you got a reply, albeit a rude one. I have messaged numerous ladies only one had the courtesy to reply the rest.....silence, which to me is just rude.

    Real men wouldn't behave that way at all, unfortunately there is a misconception by a fair few that any woman here will just go with whatever. Obviously has not been trained in the art being respectful to women. you be you, and don't let them upset your day :)

    Hi beautiful lady , it’s sad to see reactions like the ones you’ve experienced! Some guys live in Layla land and only think about their dicks and think every woman would want to fuck his brains out . Hahaha yeah don’t worry about the cockheads , as you said you’ve met plenty of nice guys here so don’t let a few cockheads bring you down . Keep enjoying what your doing and enjoy life , 🌷
