I am sure many of you get a lot of clicks on your profile everyday I a get anywhere from 2 to 150 clicks a day from people that have vied my profile. yet get as little as 0 to as many as 15 emails a day here at Match Doctor. I send out emails as well. Most men don’t even give me the respect to say hey she took her time out of all the men here to write me, so let me at least reply back and let her know if I am or am not interested in further talk. I think t is confusion why people are here if the don’t want to make friends and or lover. some of us want long term relationships, some of us are set on short term. Others are willing to except and are comfortable with what ever works. Either way if someone clicks on my profile they must be interested in something the read or even have a comment as to the picture rather it is good or bad. Why not chat with people more and tell them what you think. Constructive criticism is as important as praise.

well when people find someone ugly they refuse to even think that maby this is a human and maby they are able to talk.well i'm am far from being good looking and i know it and these woman could care less about me as a person.woman today only have three thing they give a damn about 1.thinking they are better than every one. 2.having a very good looking man as a piece of arm candy. 3.if the man makes more than $50,000.00 a year.so when your able to look from the inside out instead of looking from the outside in then you willfind just how shallow and self centered most of these people really are.bottom line is the every day man or woman is left out of the shallow end,well they say it's lonley at the top,that's due to the fact 9 out of 10 on here are or beleave they better and how dare they even think about other's as a person. i bet the goody goody's will want to ban me for this.well there is the saying MAKE MY DAY..........

I have to say that I agree with both of you. It isn't just the women who look at someone and say nothing or they talk until they see the pic and then you hear "I'm sorry. You aren't my type.". I have heard that so many times and it getting to the point where you just want to give up.
Also I have noticed that some people are saying that they are looking for just friends..however, if you notice they still put a body type in. If in fact all they are looking for is friends. Then, don't friends come n all shapes, sizes, colors, and genders?

Yes friends do come in all shapes, styles, colors, etc..and a friend is not someone you pick based on those qualities. In all honest cupid doesnt shot his arrow by those things either. Thanks for the input..seems many of us feel the same..so lets make this a better world..smile at your neighbor..say hi and thanks or no thanks to an offer to chat or meet for coffee..After all freedom of speech is our right as humans.

Here's a thought: Instead of bitching about how unfriendly people are, let's all say hello to each other.
Hello everyone.

The facts are in the "real" world, we find friends, lovers, partners based on things that just plain don't come across in the internet world.
Look how easy it is to say the wrong thing in a text message. Imagine trying to find someone using the same method?
Men and women tend to put in their profiles things that are the "ideal" of what they're looking for and don't give much thought to other than this perfect vision they've created online.
In person, people tend to be much more open and able to let things go in a direction without it having a set outcome.
It's strange but I've met more people, who I can really relate to, on myspace than any other medium I've used to date. I think the reason is on myspace people are creating a small world that is REALLY them. Where it's not a dating site, you learn more about who the person really is rather than some specifics of what they're looking for which can be distorted through no fault of their own.
Example: Went on three dates via dating sites and they were not who they claimed to be in any way. Not actually lying but far from the truth if you know what I mean.
Two dates that came by way of myspace that were great. But I already felt like I knew them.
Just an opinion,
Bob

Most people here when they check on a profiles is to see more about the person and what type of pics, kids (if any), type of status the person is currently in (single, divorced, etc) and what they are looking for. Not everybody here is going to find that one person that makes their heart sing thats what your profile is there for, for people to check out what you say about your self and IF they like it then they might take it from there.
I agree that the person should say something IF they get a wink or e-mail from a person that is interested in starting something or a e-mail saying 'no thanks' but to send a e-mail critizing a profile after you 'click' on it is a little far fetched.
As for myspace, I might have to update my profile there but really, why bother?

See, here's the key difference between myspace and dating sites as I see it.
I meet someone on myspace and we talk about mutual interests that may have nothing to do with actually dating. In fact, I don't contact anyone who doesn't have something in common with me. The people that contact me also share my interests and become part of a community of like minded individuals. Because of this linking, you meet even more people and so on and so on etc etc
The way it happens in real life.
You actually get to know the person before taking it a step further.
Dating site profiles tell you almost nothing about the person. There's no way to express yourself other than blogs and I'll bet only a small fraction of users do anything more than post poems if they even do that.
For better or worse, myspace allows people to create something of themselves on the net that is really them. Yes there are fakes but there are on here as well.
A few people have contacted me about they think myspace is just for the young. Not at all although it is for the young at heart. LOL
If you go on with the intent of finding that forever person in your life you've missed the whole point. The idea is to make contacts, at this it is very good.

It's all in how you view myspace I guess. Three dates from like minded people and yes my own age..Had a great time and already had things in common before even meeting. Made things much more enjoyable.. Totally different from trying to find a life mate but then not many sites are good at that anyway. LOL
Another site that's turned out pretty good is meetup.com
Again, if all you're looking for is a match made in heaven, not the site for you but if you want to meet people, it's a good one..

heh, canceled myspace profile when I got some friend requests from 20 yr olds 'models'. Never found anything worthwhile about myspace, plus to busy to 'modify' my profile on there to add all the 'song and dance' and 'fireworks' like everybody else profiles had.
Plus not many choices for people in my area to talk with so, why bother with myspace?

I've only just found matchdoctor, but I've been on other sites, and usually, men are intimidated by me, or I don't get any hits because I don't want to post a pic online. I'm thinking of posting a picture looking away, just so they can see I'm not totally gross.
I think I'm too honest sometimes, and toned down my profile, but still, what I want is what I want. I'm not gonna do a "teaser" and then have to take several emails to find out that they aren't at all what I want.
I've been around the block a few times, even stopped at some of the houses, and I know which neighborhoods I don't want to be in.

OK...anyone who is on the dating scene...two words(and then some more)...
thick skinned
if you're going to be hurt or crushed that people view your profile and stay silent...i think it's therapy time...
it'd be like saying that when you are in public at a restaurant, or the bank, or anywhere else, a stranger makes eye contact from across the room and doesn't come running up to throw themselves at you - or at the very least, make and introduction...
HELLO!!!!(knock on somebody's forehead)
to me, someone who looks and doesn't say anything is just like the hundreds of people a day who see you on the street and never say a word...the only difference is, that here on this and like websites, you can track the "views"...think about it...how many people actually look at you in any given day in person that you never know about...???

Hmm... Bob... you must be seeing something I'm not...
The 'myspace' site features HUNDREDS of 15-year-old children pretending to be 45 ~ 50.
If that wasn't bad enough, the ENTIRE site seems to be aimed at presenting & promoting oneself in the grand plastic, glitter, pure SHAM manner made famous by Hollywood television producers.... ALL fake, ALL the time!
If you feel that the 'net... or 'dating sites' lack depth & reality, then 'myspace' is a giant step BACKWARDS!
