Pic Traders or have they really forgotten that we've talked before?

[cj22s]

Three months ago I received a well thought out, detailed email from a couple with a very nice profile. We trained lots of pics, but the moment I asked about meeting they suddenly ended the conversation.
Well yesterday I received an email from them that was an exact duplicate of the first email.
They obviously do not remember having ever emailed us before, and if they do why would they send the same email as if we would not remember it?

Should I call them on it or just mark them as pic collectors and ignore them?

Ok If you are truely interested in call them on it I know that For us we get TONS AND TONS of mail and pics some of which we are interested in other we are not We sometimes forget who we have or havent contacted it could be an honest mistake, Some people are VERY active an have a generic letter to everyone that they later customize.... Ride it out let them know that you have been contacted by them before and want to know if it was an honest mistake or what

We would probably have a little fun with them before we tossed them in the trash bin. Not sexual fun, but tease them a little bit - pretend you don't remember the first encounter and play along for awhile...

Happened to us too. We just gave them a no thank you.

Funny you posted this. We have recently received emails from three single guys that we have correspondend with in the past and passed on. The emails read like they don't even remember. Makes us feel real special.

I'm guessing if you call them on it you will get no reply.

I would be more tempted to try the 2jersey approach if you feel up to it. Mostly, we don't want to waste the effort.

Oregon is being nice in taking into account that for many people this is NOT a full time job. There's the bills that need to be paid, the kids that need to get sent off to school, the (dare we say it for probably many here) ailing parents that need to be cared for, and the rest of things called Life. Put that into the context that while YOUR Life is spinning around YOU, THEIR Life is spinning around THEM. Your schedules don't match up right away. Time elapses and all of a sudden Swing Lifestyle deletes your old messages. Ooops!

There COULD be a reasonable excuse for them forgetting that they wrote to you before. And Oregon has is it correct that they might have a "form" message to send out initially. (Since this whole thing is nothing but a numbers game, we do too.)

2's approach borders on animal cruelty. lol (Call the ASPCA!)

NandTfromCA is more humane.

Why do people act they think they're "special" BEFORE they meet someone. (Don't forget, the Internet is ONLY anonymous.) If you get to the actual point of meeting them, then you're "normal". You become "special" when you all end up clicking.

Ohhh...how fun!!

I would email them back and mess with them a little. When it comes time to trade pics, send them the pics of them (if you still have them).

if you still have their original email and copy of your response I would be tempted to send that back to them with a comment about how your response hasn't changed!! Or chalk them up to mass emailers (those who send the exact same email to hundreds of people on line).

This happened to me and I actually called her on it. She emailed that she was interested in chatting and we did. Good conversation and we talked about getting together for coffee the next day since we were both busy that night. I called, she did not answer, so I left a message. After two more attempts, I stopped. A couple of months later, she emails me about wanting to chat and get together and I reminded that we had! For some people it's all a game.

This has happen to us at least a half dozen times now. With two couples it has happened three times. We assume it has to be a wide casting of the net by others and we just get caught in the net more than once.

I'm not sure what site you are on that you got contacted by this couple but Swing Lifestyle has a history button. Once you start corresponding with someone it saves all your emails to them and from them. We have had this same thing happen to us and we just send them an email back and tell them "no thanks...check your history"

This particular couple you are dealing with sounds like pic collectors for sure...do with them as you will. Although I kind of like sexyshelby's idea

We must live near each other cj... we have a couple that has sent us the same impressive email twice...

We passed...

[graygo98]

This same couple has sent us the same "we are interested" email three times over 18 months. We corresponded with them for a while the first time and then met with them....twice! But, no physical chemistry unfortunately so we moved on.

No, they are not pic collectors. And they are definitely not stupid. He is a very successful lawyer and she is a technology consultant. Nor do they think we are stupid. They are just very busy people that just like me sometimes don't remember if a profile is new or not. We don't provide face pics on our AFF profile, just body and semi nude stuff. They are going from the words.... which must match what they are interested in but I guess aren't quite as memorable as the Gettysburg address.

So as far as a person simply sending you the same email again I would say cut them some slack. I would be more concerned by them going silent as soon as you suggest a meet. A definite red flag.
