Let’s discuss how to give out an appropriate rejection after you receive the very first e-mail from someone that you have no interest in communicating with (while it’s true that with some people, we feel an instant connection, it is just as true that with some others, we instinctively know that you won’t jive with each other’s personalities):
What to do:
- Don’t reply at all. Just read then delete the message. In the language of the internet, this is understood as, “Not interested at all.” Or if this makes you feel guilty, then go to the other option, which is to;
- Send a short, grateful, yet firm message, saying, “Thanks for writing, but sorry, I’m not interested.“ It’s short, simple, abrupt, firm, and no-nonsense. No hidden messages, cards all laid down on the table. Then delete the e-mail. If the other person continues to e-mail you, ignore it and don’t reply. But if the person continues to send you more e-mails, then you can block that user using the feature in the dating service.
What not to do:
- Deleting the message without even reading it. It is rude and below the belt. I mean, how would you feel if that was done to you? Obviously, the other person took the time and effort to create a message and then a bit of courage to actually send it to you. So a little act of courtesy of spending a few seconds to actually reading the e-mail would be appreciated.
- Sending a short reply, saying, “Not on your life, loser!” Sorry, but if you do this, you end up being the rude and inconsiderate loser, and not the other person.
- Blocking the user without giving him/her the benefit of a doubt. Even if you don’t want other e-mails coming form that particular person, it is unnecessary to give him/her a proverbial slap in the face by blocking them after the first email.
Practice appropriate rejection etiquette and keep yourself and the other person from being unnecessarily frazzled and hurt.
