I need help on my feeding messages; people think I'm too salesy, even though the text is about connection

Hey @everyone, all of the ppl I'm connecting to....so many think I'm trying to sell them something....But look at my feeding messages:

Message 1: Hey Wendy, Thanks for connecting with me here on LinkedIn.
Message 2 (6 days later):Hey Wendy, Did you get a chance to read the about section on my LinkedIn profile? I recently updated it.
Message 3 (6 days after that):Not sure if you got my last message. The reason why I reached out to you is because I love getting to know my connections on LinkedIn and learning more about them. I read your profile and I'm interested in learning more.

What am I doing wrong? I thought I was feeding to get a response but literally so many respond to that message with "I'm not interested" or "please stop."

I feel embarrassed and I fear this is the exact rejection that prevented me from even wanting to start in the first place.
