Yeah Raj, I dunno the reason. I’m not the type to over-analyze what I say, but often it happened before almost anyone could have screwed something up
Some would message some version of hi and then ignore my response, which was usually just like a hi back, maybe asking how their week was. I only ever give one response to anyone. I’m never going to say “are you there?” or something desperate like that if they choose to ignore it
Other times the conversation would get a bit deeper but still pretty shallow like “what kind of work do you do? Or what do you like to do for fun?” either asked by myself or them. And then no answer after that. Now one could think maybe they didn’t like the job (I’m generally vague about my job to strangers anyway), but your job is also right on your profile, so it’s not like that should be a deal breaking surprise. Maybe they don’t like a hobby of mine being running, or kayaking…?
No, what I imagine it is is that they are also communicating with like 4-5 other guys, with more messaging them every day. And with thousands of un-seen profiles in front of them. So they are feeling that if the conversation isn’t absolute magic the entire way through, then bail and try with someone else. Recognizing this trend in others, I try to avoid being too judgemental myself so as to not further it
But again, there might be a money or scam angle too, who knows. My bot-sense wasn’t tingling too much though
