Welcome to My Dating Life

I can already hear my dad saying, "I'm not going to read this!" and my mom considering the same. I promise, nothing terrible, dirty, or otherwise unreadable.

So I've been internet dating off and on for years - having also studied it. It should come as no surprise that I still do so. Internet dating has many pros and cons, as does meeting people in various other ways. So please, if you're considering it, do not let this story talk you out of it - this is one of those funny exceptions that you simply have to take as a grain of salt.

On this web site I have to email five people per month and so I find this one guy who seems nice enough whom I email. He hits me up while I'm on the site (they have a chatting service) and he gets a bit heavy on the compliments, "Oh you're so pretty, you have such a great smile, yak yak yak." Don't get me wrong, I love compliments as much as the next person, but if it's overboard in person, it's worse on the computer. (And no, this wasn't a plug to share how beautiful I am and how great my smile is)

So later on in the evening we're chatting and he says, "You're going to hate me." I respond, "What? Already? Why?!"

"You turn me on"

I'd like to note to all of you cynical and sarcastic people out there, there are no pictures that even remotely show "the girls" on this web site, so don't you go getting dirty on me and saying, "duh".

Which makes this almost even more hilarious because it's just my face... which means... well... I'll let you fill in the blanks!

Adding insult to injury, I then got contacted on the same site by what is possibly the hairiest man I have ever seen.

And people wonder why I don't get out much?!

I kid. Mostly.
