Do you respond to messages from guys you are not interested in, or do you ignore?
Got a decent message from a guy on OKC for the first time in a long time. However, I checked out his profile and he is unattractive to me and 15 years older, so I don't think I will answer. But a part of me wants to respond just to encourage people who send real messages
I do not have anymore active profiles, but I guess it depended on my mood. If I was in a good mood I would reply and basically say I wasn't interested. The majority of the time, however, yes, I would ignore and delete.
But I mostly only have eharmony going atm and I don't think you can just reply with a "thanks, no thanks" when people have sent you 5 questions..
Do you just block the people to close out the questions? I never figured out how to stop that process when I realized I wasn't interested in them if only to block them.
I mostly respond because I am frustrated when I send out messages and men ignore and delete them. If they are a lot older or say something disgusting or inappropriate than I will delete without a response.
I tend to just ignore and delete but they're typically just short generic messages so I don't feel like they're anxiously awaiting my reply or anything. haha

I don't do anything with them.. I just have 45 odd people in my inbox.. Some of them are greyed out so I assume they changed their mind or decided that I'm a heinous bitch lol
My bff got eharmony after I did and she has a LOT of the same people in her inbox, I think they're mostly the ones who just message every new person that pops up. So I don't feel bad really.

Ladies this is why I like Tinder and Bumble, only matches can contact you. On Bumble YOU have 24hrs to make the 1st move and then HE has 24hrs to respond or else fade off into oblivion ...
I have an OKC profile I rarely visit other than to see who stopped by and who sent me a message that will likely be deleted ...

Almost all of the dudes I've really hit it off with have been from Bumble. It's also given me a new appreciation for how difficult it is to message first lol.
If they were short, cut and dry messages like "Sup" or some other drivel, then I ignore. If they put some effort into it, I respond with a 'thanks but no thanks' message. If they keep pushing, they get blocked.
