When you're not interested ...

I'm sorry, call me crazy but am I weird or something?

First of all, what does "In the process of ending a 7 year relationship" mean? Either you've ended the relationship or you haven't. If you haven't ended the relationship, what are you doing on an online dating site?

It's a long, complicated story that I don't wish to get into on a message board. Unless you're a potential date, I don't really owe it to you, either.

I don't respond if I'm not interested. And no one has ever written a "sorry but I'm not interested" message back to me, either. I just figured that was the etiquette.

This is my reasoning as well. I personally don't need an email saying "thanks but no thanks," I can take the hint. I assume other people can too. And maybe it's better for some people to assume that not everybody is a paying member so they can't respond to emails, or some other reason rather than getting rejected by everybody they send an email out to.

Well, the guy who sent a photo and "hey" who said he's 36 and looks like he's 60 sent another message. This time no photo and just "hey."

Oy.

There's a reason I hate doing this.
