Is it just me or do other people notice that some messages they send are read but never replied too? If its me then fair enough, but when I receive a message I always reply out of politeness and the simple fact that this is a site for friends, not replying isn't very friendly is it? Or am I just being paranoid?
Nope DG99, it aint just you, it happens to me a lot. I also get weird ones who reply to my PM but obviously have no interest in starting a conversation
so why reply in the first place?? Personally I'd rather they didn't reply at all than mess me about.
From my personal experience I've found that male friends tend to drop me when they start dating, so maybe the people who don't reply to you are just saving themselves from that experience?
As for getting to events to make friends and maybe the other half will show up, well the hardest part for me is the getting there as I have great difficulty getting a lift.
