Response Rate
under RelationshipsDear Tamar,
Well, the main question is, how can I get a higher response rate to emails I send out? It seems that so many emails go unread and most of the ones that are read go unanswered.
I know it’s a numbers game, but really it would be nice to hear back. I think there is too much judging going on out there. Even after going out a few times, people run.
I really do try to give someone a chance. We all have issues. We all have quirky things we do. It would be nice to meet girls who are ready, ready to commit, ready to have a life together. I am 43, I know that I will have to make compromises and I will have to change a bit to fit in with someone new.
It would be great to hear your take on this. Thanks!
Dear Response Rate,
Remember that people without a paid 100hookup account cannot read their emails, so don’t take every “unread” message to heart. As for the ones that are read, now that’s another story. It’s easy to put the blame on the receiving end, and sometimes they are to blame, but all you can do is try and see how you can better your emails and profile and photos to elicit a higher response rate. Are your pictures showing you in the best light? Is your profile appealing? Are your emails too forward? Try to see how you can switch things up a bit to make sure you’re coming across the way you want to because a lot can be lost in translation online. Aside from that, you seem to have a great attitude, ready to meet someone and realistic about what that means in terms of compromising. Good Luck!
