If that's the case why did she add me in the first place. She didn't email me but showed interest by adding me?

Wired crossed on the emails mate. Her last email was about meeting up. I had replied to that saying I'd like to meet to, then left it a week before sending the polite email.

Ok sounds like a mix up.

Move on to the next one then, I guess some people are like that and like the attention.
 
I'd added one girl to my favorite, just because I ran out of time to email her before going out one night. She emailed me saying it was a little strange to be added to favorite without emailing....we have now been going out for 9 months :D

*This post is most likely of little help, but it shows how everyone takes situations differently, one girl may not reply to an email you send and another may love it...keep trying and be yourself*
 
Well to be honest, im not interested so I have replied saying so (kindly of course). To me it just seems like a lack of effort.

Maybe shes shy, and doesnt want to put a whole load of effort into a first bit of contact until she knows you might want to chat back.
 
Ooo eeerrr.

Just seen someone that I went on a couple of dates with, in real life, appear on one of those datingdirect.com daily 'is your match here' emails. Lack of / mis-communication is why it didn't go any further and I think there might be some bad feelings there somewhere (from her).

Anyway, to prevent any embarassment, I've deleted my dd.com account. I wasn't paying for a sub anyway and was only kept it going to see if anyone ever caught my eye. Certainly wasn't actively looking.

What's with women adding me as a favorite on PoF then not emailing?

I've emailed one after she added me because I thought she had potnetial. Two emails later and no more communication, even though the last one from here was long and detailed.

Women seem to get wound up when a man adds them without emailing them first (I've not done this) but women can get away with it? One of them even says "Please don't add me to you favorites or I'll block you" yet she's now added me!

By potential do you mean her personality and looks or just her looks?

Both looks and personality. Her emails were very well written, full of information and questions. If someone doesn't have a personality they could be a perfect 10 in the looks department and I wouldn't be interested.

That's a good way to be .. same as me, i like someone i can have a conversation with and who is interesting i thought me like that were few and far between till i met my bf.
 
I met one women the other week who was really pretty and who took good care of herself. Her emails were quite short and to the point but did ask questions and answer them.

When I did meet up with her it was the most difficult two hours I've had in a long time. She didn't talk unless I asked her something or give long responses. After 15 minutes I'd covered a range of things and was running out of things to talk about. I thought she may have been nervous so I asked her if everything was OK to which she responded "I'm not a people person"..

I can't be with someone who I can't have a good chat with about everything and anything. Since then she's emailed me every day saying that she wants to see me again as she's found someone she can actually talk too! I've explained how I feel but for the time being she's not giving up.

Should have told her to down her drink, get back to yours, then be animals together !!!!!

Sounds awkward though, and most girls I know love to chat, with it being especially easy to just chat to them about about themselves (seem very very interested in them) :D

Have a couple more dates if you like her, she might open up a bit more.

I thought about that but after the first time being so difficult I can't see it going anywhere. Looking at the bigger picture I can't see her socialising with my friends very well and although it's not the be all and end all of the situation I really need someone who can blend into the group, especially when we go on holidays etc.
 
Just been having a quick search and came across a delightful young lady. Very pleasing to the eye with a half decent profile right until the last line, which reads..

criminal convictions a turn on ha haaaaaa! Like tattoos, skin-heads and meaty frame, I don't ask for much ;)
