Another Online Dating Message!!

The online dating saga continues…

This one at least had an interesting subject line: “Help get me off this site”. I almost didn’t read it; I almost just deleted my profile. Curiosity killed the cat but so far I’ve been ok, so I opened it…

The first line: “Great Pictures” Wow, gee, I wasn’t going to put up crappy pictures of myself was I?? Next line: “You are definitely a very attractive woman.” By now I’ve reached for my ceaser. The rest was a typical message about how I caught his eye, asking me for a drink or two, nothing thoughtful, nothing original.

I clicked on the view profile link to see how tall he is… 6”2, my minimum height. I scroll down to see his pictures stupidly, I use my black berry so the pictures are so tiny all I can tell is he has a crappy door as his background. Not too impressive considering one of his interests is photography. His other interests include cuddling, paintballing, fantasy and learning. What??

So after all this patheticness I still respond to the message with “Drinks sound delicious. I’m free Saturday” I know I’m going to meet up with him and not be attracted to him. He listed cuddling as an interest. Who does that?? No one I can’t live with out!

On the plus side I have plans on a Saturday night with someone who isn’t going to ditch me for their loser boyfriend.
