Guest Z_sam13 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 So I’ve been hearing a lot of my pals on grindr talking about the whole “no reply is a reply” but I wanna hear y’all’s perspectives on this. So is no reply a reply or could it mean something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magicerife Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 It can speak volume about the etiquette and social literacy of the person receiving the message. likewise it can be a measurement of how petty / self centered / self opinionated the person sending the message is if he thinks his message should be attended / replied to. manehiso 1 Quote ---Dignity is a facade we wear to hide our ignorance.

Guest Guest Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 I had a FB friend (S'porean Chinese) last time . . . I noticed that she normally will reply very sweetly if her ang moh friends write something on her FB, esp if it's a guy. But when I write on her FB, she will either ignore, reply bluntly, or scold me for disturbing her. Later on, she married an ang moh guy (not surprising). And of course, she wasted no time in changing her FB profile name to display her new English-sounding, multisyllabic surname. I just cut her off from my life, like tossing out a piece of dead weight on a boat. No point keeping such a friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Wholey Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 To be frank , I don't like to reply people on mobile. I rather chat face to face. Somemore there is so much clutter on dating apps and so many things to do on mobile... sometimes you just don't want to give someone that insincere response so just don't.

Startup Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 There is this thing called character profiling. You can tell what a person’s character is based on his words, actions and thoughts. Of cos we know it’s common for us not to reply in any situation and the reasons for doing so varies. Say, in BW sometimes you receive PMs or DMs and you choose not to reply cos the other person is someone you have not chatted with before. It could be he is totally not your type or you were busy at the moment and then you forgot to reply. But let’s talk about after having some chats and then you decide not to reply anymore and even block the other person completely. Many people do that and they like to rationalize it as normal behaviour. But for those who think it’s alright to not reply after having chatted for a while, it speaks volume about your character. Not trying to paint the bis with a broad brush but many of them tend to behave in a very similar manner. I received a DM from a bi last night. We proceeded to chat on telegram. We talked about our preferences. That’s when he proceeded to stop replying and then block me. Well after having chatted with some bis, I found such behaviour very common among this group. Of cos we can go on and on about how some people behave but this is not about bashing or judging any group. You may think that to expect a reply from anyone is self-entitled. Let’s flip the coin around. If you interact with people and are used to not getting any reply or you think that it’s ok not to reply to anyone when you don’t feel like it, then you may wish to relook what you think it means to be a human.

mith Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 not replying is a silent way of saying the loudest and clearest NO to whatever u are asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunchun Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 It's a slow reply for sure. Sometimes the one who chats keeps waiting for an answer only to find out it's a no reply. I prefer to reply though it might be a polite no, clearer for both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gstringuy26 Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 No reply means not interested as far as this social platform is concerned, because some people cannot take no for an answer, he will pester you till U reply him. But hey....we all strangers to each other? haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dart Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Depending on the situation. In job application with large establishment, the management normally will reply (in the case of unsuccessful application) out of courtesy to the applicant. In gay application, no reply means not interested. For those who are well endowed who insist on a reply, attaching a picture of your cock will suddenly get a reply 😄 fab 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, no reply can mean ambiguous ...like maybe his house suddenly collapse and can't reply U? or his parent just batsh into his room, so on that moment he just slam shut his laptop?

MasterFitMalaySG4U Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Best is your intiate 2 times. If he says hi...just be direct to him what you seek etc...Share your face but not your cock....if wanna see more meet up. That way is fairness even get rejected, at least both meet up. If he don't reply for 3 days, just delete the convo. Lost chats is really excuses. Of course if you have multiple phones or change obviously chat is lost unless you back up or favorite it. Sometime they used lost chat as an excuse even though I understand it is true but you can't simply use that much..if you keen or into fav it...and don't expect someone to keep intiating...unless you are damn hot....2 way street.
