I didn't answer your p.m. because.....

:D Yes , so you’ve decide to be a Lit-nudist. ( no avatar visual )

Bravo 👏 , :rose: it’s trending don’t you know.

I’ve had some stuff going on and not here much lately. I’ll give it some thought and pick something when things settle a bit.
 
Maybe you are ref. to things like etiquette? That is up to you as well.
If you don't want to or don't feel in the mood for it, just don't. If somebody thinks, or you give the impression, of you as being rude, you have to take that into account and be good with it. After all, you're not giving a damn about what they might think in first place.

Haha to funny , I carried that word over to the let’s hear your voice thread before I saw this post.

Social contract , I hadn’t actually given that train of though any energy until I started posting on forums. That’s where I have seen it used more then I’ve ever heard it said out loud.

Calling someone a Alt or troll as a example here out loud .The social contract we should have is to ignore what doesn’t interest us and move on. By posting something like that we are asking for support and a alliance with others that might not like this person. Founded or unfounded once it’s out there, it can’t be taken back.

That’s a failure of a social contract to be civil according to a standard terms of use actual enforceable contract.

To reply to every Pm regardless of who it’s from and the subject line or body of the message. That’s a suggestive social contract carried over from our in the real world etiquette and manners. That’s not a enforceable contract other then within our selfs.
 
I'm old enough to remember the day and age without social media. It never was a social contract. If anything, the reverse is true. But in both cases, whoever enters into your life, in any shape or form, it is you (not you personally) who let them in. They did not force or pry their way into your reality.
Exactly! It goes a little like this

IDNAYP because I chose not to.

Could be a multitude of reasons. I learned very early on here that answering every pm just to acknowledge the sender can generally be seen as an open invitation. Even if it’s a polite reply of no thank you.
 
I try to reply to all except a few that are not in line with my personality :)
 
Because Daisy_Love told me not to..... :)

I do actually answer almost all PMs that come my way, even if it is to just say, "Dude, I'm a guy." lol.

My favorite is when I take the time to reply and tell them that their approach isn’t one that women would generally find appealing and they tell me what women actually want. They’ve been responded to before, so they obviously know women better than I, a woman, ever could.

Even though there are hundreds of posts here from women that say they initially responded to PM’s out of an ingrained obligation to be polite. Then they got overwhelmed with entitled creepers until they finally just shut off their PM’s.

But go on, Randy. You surely know more about what women want than women do. That’s why you’re so incredibly successful here that you’re simply swimming in women. Swimming, I say.
 
IDNAYP because even though I try to be polite and answer everyone there are times where I just can’t bring myself to respond to the person with no post, no av, no bio and a pm that says “hi”....
 
PMs that just say "How are you doing?" from a women? who has no posts and doesn't know me from Adam can only mean one thing and I was eating my dinner at the time.
 
IDNAYP because I did my due diligence and post stalked you before responding and saw you’re clearly into someone else and if she’s the kinda girl you’re into, you wouldn’t be into me. I saved us both the hassle.

IDNAYP because kinda piggy backing off of Chilly where I really do try to be polite and answer everyone, if your PM only asks me if I live alone..thats a hard pass for me :rolleyes:..

..and the females that can be super passive aggressive...I just don’t have time for your shenanigans 😂

Do you live alone?:eek:
 
Because you ignored me before.. why should I reply now just because you are bored, and I'm guessing, struck out with other guys?:rolleyes:
 
I always reply, even if it’s just to say ‘thanks but no thanks’.

Mind you, I don’t get some of the mindless, Neanderthal messages that the women on here probably receive.
