Do you take the time to respond to Zoosk emails even if the person is not a good fit for you?

Would you prefer to have the person politely let you know they are looking for something else, or is no response at all an answer in itself?

personally i would rather sumone tell me that they are not interested cuz then i kno that the first messege went thru and u dont make the mistake of emailing them again

thanks for your truly inspired 'wink wink'. The time and energy put into that definately deserves to be ignored. Internet winking is more lame and cheesy than the real thing . . . .

Like your answer, I go with what he said. Just tell me and then I do not have to run into your profile again thinking OH he just didn't get to read or something....*sigh*.

Yes, common curtosy, or proving that you're acctually polite is what an answer back will prove.

If someone e-mailed me I would politely answer back. Who knows you may make a good friend even if their not what your looking for in a relationship. If I e-mailed someone I would hope they would at least answer back to let me know they got the e-mail and if their not interested thats o.k.

I tried to put in my profile WHY I don't respond, and again, some guys apparently don't think I am being serious. I also personally think the winks are kind of lame, it usually will have me look at the guy's profile, but not always.

If I get a nice email, yes, I always send one back, even if it is a simple thank you

I'm kind of unsure whether or not to answer back somtimes... I mean, it's like thanks for the effort of sending me a nice email saying you're interested and telling me what a nice guy you are and actually putting thought behind it instead of just saying "hey sexy" or "sup ma".

But I'm not the type of person that wants to hurt anyone's feelings, I'm too nice. So I have a few emails I haven't answered because they sound like nice guys, but I'm not entirely interested or even remotely attracted to them.

There's other emails where the guys just sound like pigs or they're way too old to even consider someone my age and I do not hesitate to let them know that I'm not interested.

I just feel bad sometimes about the whole saying no to the really nice guys thing. I just wouldn't feel right getting involved with someone like that. It'd be more like hanging out with an awkward friend.

Hmm, I think I'd be happy just to receive an e-mail. I'm not going to e-mail anyone myself....I'm shy that way....or cheap...or maybe slightly lazy, but how can that be since I am writing this?
