why do women on dating sites never respond.?

I suspect that one person actually has the answer. Fake profiles! The women that I actually contacted are waiting for a handsome young man with around a million dollars a year of disposable income. They insist he enjoy shopping and travel to all he worlds tourist traps. If you have a wart, or actually have to work 5 days a week, they aren't interested. When you meet them they are often frightening. Curvy means morbidly obese. Well educated means they don't move their lips when they read. Financially secure means they passed probation at WalMart. They usually aren't what they advertised. They might be doing us a favor by not responding.

I've heard that the women that you talk about get hundreds of messages from guys every day (even the lesser attractive ones). As a result, they automatically delete a lot of them without even reading them because they don't have the time. You have to remember that guys outnumber women on those sites 100 to 1, so try not take it personally.

99 out of 100 girls find your profile uninteresting. Obviously they are interested in dating, just not in dating you.

Match.com posts fake profiles to draw you in

they also send out those *winks* that are supposed to suggest a member likes you and is interested - many of those are false too
