I have the impression that for some people on dating sites, a very quick response to a message comes across as being a bit too eager?
But I would like to get another opinion.
In my opinion, I wouldn’t be bothered if someone responded quickly to my message. My ideal is to get a response within 24-36 hours. However, I wouldn’t mind it if the person responded quicker.
Hi John,
A quick response isn’t a turn off. If anything, for the most part, people on dating sites get frustrated that their messages aren’t responded to quick enough.
There is a lot of opportunity to get distracted on dating sites.
If a person isn’t responding in a quick or timely fashion, they can easily lose out on a great match. The key is not to come off as though you are trying too hard to please in your messages. That is where people get turned off.
It is also important that you don’t become impatient with a person who isn’t responding as quick as you would like.
If you are all about responding quickly, but the other person takes a little longer to do the same and goes beyond your 24-36 hour threshold, you shouldn’t suddenly start moaning about it. That would be a turn off. Take it in stride and roll with it.
Understand that you should be conducting a few other conversations with other people at the same time so that you aren’t putting all your romantic hopes in one match. Some matches will be quicker to respond to you and others not as quick.
As long as you maintain a positive attitude and avoid acting like you are entitled to a quick response, you will get better outcomes.
