Getting your Facebook friends to respond to your messages?

Question

Im sure some of you have the same problem. You add a friend from work that you have talked to a few times, she likes you, and she adds you as a friend when you request it. You message her to see how she is, and try start a nice friendship, but she responds once to your message, even asks an open ended question, like (how are you then) you messger her back, and you never get a responce back from her, even though it says shes online. Soo typical. Why is this, are they Retarded? B/c I always respond to anyone that ever asks me something, its rude not to. So whats wrong with these certain class of people, you know who you are. Im really good looking too, im not some old hairy creep trying to contact them. And im polite, sooo, I dont know. Please advise, thanks. By the way, Im in the UK...

Answer 1

You are not the only one.Happens to me too. It is even more annoying when they request to be added on to your page as a friend and then never write to you at all. Some people just like to make themselves look popular by having a large number of "friends" who they probably never even talk again to 99% of the time.  

Answer 2

She probably gets alot of messages.. especially if you are a facebook friend... she probably already has many of her current friends that messages her all the time....

Answer 3

could she be trying to tell you something?

i dont know maybes she just gets alot of messages or something
