How do you feel about receiving unsolicited messages, and what do you do about them?

I'm really intrigued by how people feel about this matter. I hope for lots of dialogue on it. Admittedly, I'm sure I'm not the first to ask, but I think it's still a relevant question. What do you think?

I tell them I'm not in to small talk and to please not message me again. Some I just delete and some I respond. It depends on what is being said.

@Peaches That's okay, but maybe you're missing out on some lively and interesting interactions??!?

Peaches · F

@splendid I doubt it. What's your idea of "lively and interesting?"

splendid · 41-45, M

@Peaches That's all in the eye of the beholder! 🙂

Peaches · F

@splendid So what's in your eye?!👁️

@Peaches Nothing, really, but I do enjoy being playful sometimes. When I interact with just the right person, I like to be playful. In a good way. So, hopefully, you won't block me...

@splendid I'm very playful too and have been judged harshly here for that. I don't do sexual fantasies, role play or any kinky sexual conversations with people here.

@Peaches Different kinds of playfulness exist, for sure. You are I are taking about innocent playfulness, not sleazy kinds.

Peaches · F

@splendid Exactly, but there are lots of mean jealous people here that are in "clicks."

@Peaches Yes, you are right. Well, let's do our best to make sure they don't dominate our good experiences. Can be difficult to sort them out at first, but after I catch on, I like to move beyond and not look back. I sense you feel the same way.
