It sounds odd that you get absolutely no replies. Some folks have mentioned problems with the system where they never get mail they know was sent. So maybe you've had technical difficulties all along and assumed it was lack of interest.
Perhaps I should clarify this a bit. I do get emails back, but 99% of the time its from people who already know me in the local area. Plus, I would routinely check my sent email to see if it had been looked at or not. The vast majority of the time when I send out emails, think 9 out of 10, they simply get read and discarded. So its definately not a technical issue, just a moral one.

I see a profile as a snapshot of the person, someone who changes names a lot shows they are still actively searching for a true expression of who they are and probably new and over-excited. Someone who changes their profile a lot shows they are unsure of how to portray themselves and working things out.
Well said, EmeraldSlave2. I would update my journal or occasionally add something more to my main profile as my experience grew, but in the main, the majority of it was the same as the day I created it.

I've made mine inactive several times... Just long enough to regain my sense of humor and ability to be civil to responders or long enough to determine if the new potential has real potential with me.
I'm sorry you're down about it, and hope you will feel better, M
I will keep your example in mind, BlkTallFullfig. Perhaps sometime I will find my sense of humour about it and post it again. *Shrugs* Thank you though.
To everyone else, thank you kindly for your replies. For now though, I will be content to keep the profile deleted and simply watch and occasionally post in the forums when something catches my eye.
