1. There has been a major slow down on my internet sites. Eharmony is now primarily matching me with people outside of Chicago (I chose about 4 states I would consider - PA being one of them. Who knows - maybe someone in Da Burgh will strike up a conversation and I will be drawn back home-ish). OkCupid - well I don't really check matches there. But my inbox has slowed down a TON! This could partially be caused by me allowing it to slow down. Not seeking out people to message, etc.
2. Gman sent me a lovely message telling me that he just didn't feel the "right connection". It was very sweet. I mean that. But now I am going to get snarky. IT"S INTERNET DATING! I do not expect a deep connection on the first date, but the only time I will not accept a second date is when I KNOW I am not attracted to them or they are too huge a dork. But it was sweet.
3. I received an e-mail on Ok Cupid saying "Nice profile. Interesting. Not to mention those curves. And by the way, I am serbian too". I look at his profile and there is a section that goes on a tirade about how stupid the women are on Ok Cupid. There are at least 7 distinct points that he makes. So I write back saying "I am not interested in a man who berates all other women on their profile, because I think I am better. You may want to rethink that depending on what women you intend to attract." Granted. I provoked him. I should have said nothing at all and moved on with my life. But some guys really are clueless and need a hint and women deserve to be defended in situations like those. This was his gracious response to me:
"do you honestly think any man is interested in your opinion or would bother to contact you were it not for your tits and vagina?
Honey, given your age and the fact your modest looks are rapidly approaching their expiration date you seem to be in need of a reality check."Really helps build that faith that good ones are still out there.
