Same here Nicky :thumbup:
I don't think you can be TOO polite unless it stops hinders your progress with someone. You have to find the balance between building a rapport with someone and actually making your move. Somewhere in all that, you should get a response either way from the other person.
Not sure that made sense when reading it back but it sounded good in my head :giggle:
I personally think that being too polite/civil should not be confused with somebody who doesn't have a strong criteria about who they would like to play with. (Which of course is their right!).
Goose I many be wrong here and I apologise if I am overstepping the mark, but are you concerned that because you are such a nice and polite chap, we may be thinking that you want to get in our knickers? (I only include myself because I'm female!).
I really don't know how to pin-point it exactly but I find it very easy to tell the difference between somebody who is creeping and somebody who is just a nice person. The person who is only polite because they are after something usually lets their mask slip sooner or later.
If what somebody says is genuine then it can never be too nice IMHO. Manners cost nothing but they can tell you a lot.
