I Really Have to Reply to Every Message?

No.
No. No. No.
Being polite and friendly is all well and good but sometimes it's just too tiring. For sure, one of the draws of online dating is getting all that fan mail; talk about an ego boost! However, there may come a time when you wonder, do I have to reply to every single email, wink, chat request, and booty slap? Getting to know and turning down this many guys is actually really hard work. Surprise! You've discovered the first layer of stress in the world of online dating! I ended up taking a sledgehammer to some furniture, but you might be wishing you could punch mr. rockurbody's lights out (starting a conversation with "you're seeeexxxy" is actually really irritating).


You have no obligations.

Not responding is just as acceptable as saying "No, thanks! You're twice my age and I'm not big on dressing like an elf in public. Good luck out there!"  Don't feel guilty! Would you acknowledge every dude who cat-called on the street? No. No. No... No!
