Tree matches: Why do other members not reply?

Hi - the question's in the title really. I'm a little bemused as to why people are reluctant to respond to messages. Another GR member has at least eight of my relatives in his tree, and although I can see he's read my message, he's just ignored it and I honestly can't think why. What am I missing? Help!

Excellent question, the answer to which I know not :-)

I have mostly given up asking Hot match owners for info,
I am now of the opinion that THEY must have the same match opportunities as I, so now I let THEM make the first call......I then delete the obvious mismatches, and abide my time..
