So, I know most of you like to read about my social life and the dating situations I seem to find myself in. Last week I decided that my life wasn't nearly as fulfilled as I would like it to be and that I needed to create an online dating profile. I have no clue how many of you have done this before, but it was my first time venturing into this arena figuring what's the worst that could happen? Good lord, what a freak show. While I'm there chasing around pieces of ass that are out of my league and look like this:
I'm getting responses to my profile by guys like this:
I know, I know, I know, you can't judge a book by its cover, blah, blah, blah, but if I'm not physically attracted to someone right off the bat, at least a little bit, I'm not interested. I can't help it, I'm a little shallow like that.
I've gotten over 200 messages and requests to meet in a week. Most of them propositions for sex. Nice. If I wanted a casual encounter I would have posted on Craigslist thank you very much. Out of the 200 or so messages I've gotten, I've responded to 10. Those 10 have been reduced even further to 3 that I might actually go on a date with. Seeing as I'm not driving right now, I'm not sure how I'll actually meet any of the three. I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens, lol. In the meantime, thank you Plenty of Fish for entertaining the crap out of me this week.
On the people I actually interact with on a daily basis front, Josh is definitely out after his St. Patty's Day stunt. Asshole. Sean, the Stage 5 Clinger, is officially out because he pissed me off pushing at me to be exclusive with him and also by acting like a douche at my work.
I've been hanging out with Brandon for a couple of weeks now, off and on, but he's just going to further complicate my life. He's in the middle of a huge divorce battle and quite honestly, the only reason I think we hang out is because neither of us wants to be alone. He serves a purpose, but I doubt it would ever go much further than it is right now. See though? We're cute, even if I do look a little drunk.....
The two other ones aren't really worth talking about right at this point other than to say, I just want to touch this when I go out with it later tonight. Yummy and out of my league, but he's convinced he wants to hang out with me since I knew him back in the day....... We'll see what happens.....
Hey, It's Okay

lol loved the title of your post.
Good luck with your dates
Good luck with the online dating thing.
That shifty eyed guy under the hat looks weird.
Before everything went OnLine dating services would use ringbinders. The binders filled with profiles of women had photos with textual information on the reverse side of the page. The binders that women looked at all had the textual profile as the first item they encountered and the photo was on the reverse side.
lol just remember all that steriods leaves them with a small package..and no matter how much they try to tell you. Size matters. Not saying go out with the ones that you feel are really unattractive. Just that too sexy just leads to..who else wants him too. well thats my 2 cents
One thing about going online that I found is you end up doing what I call "serial dating". You will meet many different people which can be good but it then becomes very easy to become dismissive and overly critical. When you have in in box so full of inquiries it becomes very easy to focus on any flaw a person might have and start looking for the next one rather than finding someone who you may be able to connect with. And trust me on this ... most online daters have their baggage. And this goes both ways ... you could find yourself rejected with little or no explanation. Before you know it you've been out with so many people you start expecting things to not work. At least that's how it went for me.
LMAO love it!
I tried POF, highly entertaining!
have fun =P
Flea- That would be an interesting way to go about dating, old days style, lol.
LivingDeadNurse-I was supposed to find out about all that last weekend. Unfortunately we didn't get to go out, so I'm still waiting to see what the steroids have done, lol!
Mike-I can totally see what you're talking about. Right now I have so many choices, but have yet to go out with any of them. The one that I want to go out with has a schedule much like mine, so it's probably not going to work that we get to hang out anytime soon and the other ones... well.... Ugh... Is all I'm saying about all that...
