Hi Andre ,

Well I said that I partly agree with you.And I have never blocked any woman also.
And personally , I don't send just a smiley , as a first post.

Some dating sites , will give that as a method , to start an initial contact.
To break the ice so to speak.

But I don't believe that , sending an emoticon is a proper way to start a correspondence with a Slavic woman.

It may work for some women , but it would not hurt , for the men , to put some more energy and work , when initiating a first contact with a complete strange woman.

My comments were just in a general way , so to speak.And not specifically aimed at your post and at what you said.

So , I feel that we have the same vieuw on this matter.
