Addicting

Ok, I am back in the online dating game. It’s so addictive! I’m trying out yet another site, which is free (hooray!) because the couple of guys I’ve emailed on the other site have not emailed me back. I actually got an auto-reply from one of them that said he doesn’t check the account that often. Well fair enough, but I don’t feel any better for knowing that, and now I don’t know when I’m actually being rejected. Who thought that was a good idea?

And some five minutes after signing up on the new site, I got this message:

“I don't know if we could date. I'm pretty sure you'd end up hurting me in the end; you look like a hitter :)”

What was that thought process like? “Hmm, she seems cute. But kind of intense (violent, serious, intimidating?). I’ll email and tell her she looks like an abuser and see if she thinks that’s funny.”

Yeah, I don’t think that’s funny or attractive. I think you need to go back to the drawing board and think about what it means to make a pass at someone.

I should not be glorying in my return to popularity, but it’s so hard not to. Also, this blog gets boring when weirdos aren’t messaging me. It’s pretty much a win/win. Either he’s actually cute or interesting or he’s someone I can make fun of here. Hey, don't think too little of me. Clearly karma is a bitch because I'm still single.
