Handling Messages

Post date: 2006-06-23

Dear Michelle Valentine,
I placed an ad about two weeks ago, and have recently come back from a two-week vacation. I was pretty shocked when I checked to see how many messages I got, and I had 46 messages! I had no idea so many men would call my ad! You said in your seminar how important it was to be more specific in what I wanted in a man, but I didn't follow your advice, and most of the men are not exactly what I'm looking for (some have children). What do I do now? I have all their names and numbers; should I call them to talk to them, meet them anyway, or just not call them back?

Dear Sue,
Well! Forty six responses is quite a bit - remember how I stressed quality over quantity? The quality comes from being more specific with what you are seeking (and what you're about, too). To be fair to all the men with children that called you, it would be kind of you to try to call them back and tell them that you appreciated their call, but you are not looking for someone with children. No need to go and meet them, unless of course, you find someone you find quite interesting. You didn't say how many of the 46 men did fit your criteria, so have fun calling them back and talking to them! Remember to follow my advice of talking with each man at least three times before you actually meet him in person. Good luck and have a lot of fun. Let me know the outcome from your ad!

Amore till next week
