In [post 133877] this person wonders why none of the "beautiful" women he has written to have replied. Maybe you can share some insights as to why not?
Catholic and divorced is a big negative (but maybe is not his fault)
Has and no woman wants to be a step-mom
Picture of him in an orange T-shirt
No education (maybe explain he is successful without)
Most women do not know what IT is and I don't think it's IDIOT TRAINING
Feel offended being chased for having a "pretty face"
His AFF intro is too shallow so no one knows who and what he is
His lack of knowledge of an Asian language is a big handicap
All of the above
None of the above (would you please share why not)

That could be one of the reasons. She probably recevied so amny responses that she really doesn't need to answer his because maybe the other were more interesting to her, plus they could have been Chinese.

If you are good looking man then you will certainly receive more attention. I have two accounts on here. I put in my real pictures on the 1st account (already deleted) and put in the ugly pictures of someone who is not me in the other. Guess which one received more viewing... I have tons of e-mail and winks from my 1st account but none at all from my 2nd... Now I put in my real pictures in the 2nd account and girls start viewing my profile again... Another important things though is that you will certainly receive more attention if tick the "looking for serious relatioship" box.

as for degree's it also depends how much your degree cost, and what is the name of the School that gave it.. a MBA from Cal State, will not get you the same job as a MBA from Harvard.. because, some schools are more connected in the job market than others... and carry a different connotation all together..

this site and people in it can't afford to be discriminating as much about kids, if you note the profiles of women with kids.. there are many... so if it's to be supported or expected to be supported in one direction then the women have to be equally too willing to take men with kids..

and anyone that understands life, knows that now days people with kids is as common as people being single.. and divorce is a worldwide thing..

so it's the person that matters.. and it's as many situation of step parents having good relationships as there is kids..

as for education, we forget education is education.. we still have to have common sense, and the person with or without a degree is not the important thing, unless a person is pursuing a mate with a degree.. I personally don't care if a woman has a high school education if she is with common sense and willing to engage life with common sense realism..
I learned long time ago,in some cases if a person just show up at school long enough they will get a degree.. it does not mean they are the smartest.. and there are some who have gained extensive knowledge about things that never have gone to college, they have invested their efforts to be proficient and excelling in the things they do. there are more people with degree's that don't work in anything ever remotely close to their degree, as an employment rep. .. told me , it may be less about the degree, and more about the symbolism the degree represents ( in non medical and non technical fields), the degree conveys to the recruiter that a person chose a course of action and stuck with it.. as I've seen people with English degree's running departments, and they had to learn it just the same if a person who came off the streets without a degree...most companies already have their systems in place..of how the business operates.. so it really depends on lots of factors as to the success of people.

but as long as we carry around measuring sticks, we may find non one measures up.. and we may find less of what satisfies the whole self of our being.

I Think,

it's a lack of understanding in Anglo/Asian Culture. Where as you would get many Asian people who would like to learn about western culture the western view is very narrow for many guys and are only interested in themselves. eg, drinking until they get so drunk that the wife/gf is neglected.

too much worry about being pretty.. if a woman is pretty that just how it is, the fact is that something attracts people and it's always a mixture of much... that's just life.. but if a woman was not attractive they'd be pissed off wondering why women are with this or that man, or the men is with this or that woman.. but they want to take the only claim of being able to say someone looks good as part of why they are attracted.. by their " this guys is hot" commentary.... but this near obsessive worry about being pretty or tripping if someone like the fact they are pretty to look at , is a persons own demise of finding a relationship..
if one is pretty, like it and forget about rejecting people because they like it, it's just a part of what is a person in the image but if there's substance in the person then share that too... and be done with it.. instead of .. like me for this, like me for that, and don't like me for this or that.. it's ridiculous... and if a person is so worried about that aspect then dress down, don't wear make up, don't comb their hair, and don't wear clothes that accent it.. and then see how much you even like yourself.. my goodness.. women make things pathetic.. to the point they make it impractical for anyone to like them and relate with them.. with this craziness.

why women make relating such a crazy scenario is the wildest thing on this earth.. and the biggest cause of the lack of functional relating.. they got fifty criteria that change like the moving clouds.. that's why they are never content with choices they make in mates.. and relationship fall to the side like tossing off a pair of socks.. they always think they deserve someone better because of their looks.. rather than to simply see there is no perfect people and no perfect male out there that her looks can even make perfect and neither will her looks make her perfect.. maybe the bigger problem is that women simply can't choose because they are more concerned about the options than the matter of choosing a mate and putting in the effort to make it work..as two people , two individual, that happen to like various stuff about each other.

    Quoting npr168:
    Just to be fair...

    Nero was just asking for help, but got a smack down instead. I do agree he's on the shallow side. Inner beauty is what should count most, however we are all shallow to a certain degree.

    Vicky, take this as constructive critizism. You're a young, attractive and bright woman who is entitled to who you think your ideal guy should be. You've made some good points regarding Nero's short comings, however not everyone who is divorced and has a kid or children are bad people. Did you know that more than 50% of marriages in the US and more than 60% of marriages in the Bay Area end up in divorce? Unfortunately, I'm among that statistic. I do consider myself as a very decent person and deserve to be with someone special. I'm not the exception to the rule. A lot of divorced parents that I know of are in the same situtation, but haven't found the right person to be with. We all deserve a second chance... even Nero.

    Happy Chinese New Year.
I agree with you 1000 percent on that regarding the divorce. But he was asking why no reply and if a girl is looking at his profile and she is never married then she gonna asking what happened. But you know some girls are also the Catholic like me and you know our position regarding the marriage and divorce.

But is also the shame cause often times the kiddies are involved and is not really their fault. My goodness knows I have many of the girlfriends and aunties who working for us who are divorced with kiddies and they are often times wondering if they can be match with a man with children.

You remember a guy name SFB? He used to takeing out the Asia Friendfinder peoples who are divorce with the children and take them sailing or doing the family camping at the Angel Island with them. Or he take the single guys and matching them up with the womans has kids and does the camping thing too that way. Is a safe way for some people to meeting the total stranger and seeing how they acting with kids.

Anyways, I am sorry if you feel that I was saying is bad to be divorce but if he sending a letter to a total stranger and all she is seeing is the profile then that is why I saying is big negative.

Sorry for my misunderstanding.

    Honestly, he's wasting his time online. It's better for him to go out there and get a life, and allow chance to happen. For example, he can attend a dance class (very few guys, lots of ladies, little competition), learn yoga (lots of menopausal women with flexible bodies and hot flashes), teach computer lessons (lots of grannies wanting to pick up skills to chat online), attend real estate seminars (lots of bored but ambitious women), be a doctor (chicks dig men with stethoscopes, who spell horridly and write atrociously), work out in a gym (lots of chicks dig six-pack abs, hardbodies and tight rears). The last resort is go to a mature meat market like the Blue Pheasant in Cupertino or go online on AFF.

Quite simply, he needs to start again.

There is sooo much wrong with his profile (plus, possibly, his e-mails) that he really does not stand a chance. I mean... it would appear that his profile isn't even getting hit by those who just "go for anything", and even I've had more than enough of those!

I have a soft heart... I'll have a word in his ear...

Vicky... don't start !!!

I used to have a Chinese (Hong Kong) neighbour. Fortunately I understood his sense of humour. When my ex and I first got the mother of the pup in the picture (aged about 8 weeks) and took her round to his place to "introduce her" he said... "Oh wow, a puppy !..... We can have a barbecue !!!!!"

Needless to say he got an artificial "slap" for that... (we knew it was coming)

So that is the one thing I DID know about Chinese (Hong Kong) culture before I arrived on AFF.... and my answer to that is... no, never... That is where I draw the line !!

The two things I will never eat are dog and horse. Otherwise... just feed me !

May your God go with you.

    The reason's could be all of the things you mentioned or non of the them, it's impossible for people who have not been on the receiving end of one of his e-mails to know why they didn't generate a response.
    Maybe he writes to much,maybe he doesn't write enough,maybe his mails are going into the bulk folder and cant even be read,the list is endless.Without asking him what he wrote or what a recipient didn't like about it we have no way of knowing.

You know, I kinda feel sorry for him and I really wanting to helping him. I mean, in his blog he is asking why there the negative reponse and I trying to find the way to helping him

And is true not knowing what he is writing cannot really understanding the problem but you know I am getting lots of the emails everyday and I can see lots of reasons not wanting to answer any of them at all.

I choose none of above. Many woman have told me they get alot of mails, so it's more a questions of why they should respond instead of why they don't.

Any of the above could be good reasons except for: "Feel offended being chased for having a pretty face", because if they felt that they wouldn't put a picture up in the first place. (Actually women have also told me that they took their pictures down because they were getting too many mails.)
