sarcastic and caustic look at online dating and the life of single-doom.

well at least he’s creative….

Interesting Opener….

Smaller Bowls of Cereal

I just happen to be eating a smaller bowl of cereal this morning. It was either that, “Secret Asian Man”, “Look no further for I am here,” or Caligula.

I’m still a little jetlagged from my latest trip, so I decided to give online dating another try since I’m up and listening to the Spring Awakening soundtrack.

no calvinists allowed

Headliner: Looking for that special person who is honest, caring, and has free will.

Lonely guy looking for a friend to spend some time with.

I am an average guy. I am humble and honest. Stubborn at times. Have not had many relationships.
I keep to myself mostly in crowds but can be very talkative with the right person. I think of myself as pretty simple easy come easy go. I like kids, well so far kids that are not my own. I like to run and walk. Just starting to hunt this year.(should be interesting.)
I really don’t know who I am looking for. Someone smart sexy or just average and nice. I do not have a preference just looking to meet someone new.
Would like to have kids one day but you never know

Most boring, noncommittal profile ever. And apparently it’s okay if his match is average and boring as well.

too many romantic comedies

Incredible sense of humor and I don’t smell. Also, creditable in bed.

I don’t know what I’m looking for. Exactly, anyway. I suppose there’s some slim chance that we’ll meet in the bar at the Algonquin and have a martini and we’ll order Martinis and talk about how much we like “The Alchemist” and Francois Truffaut and you’ll request “Moonlight Serenade” from the piano player and we’ll dance a waltz in the lobby until I knock over a coffee table and the manager tells us we have to leave so we head out into a sultry August night and stroll effortlessly to the dive bar around the corner where we could split a pitcher of light beer and a basket of fries and pass the night regaling each other with tales of our high school sexual escapades.

But then the second date would probably be an enormous let down.

So maybe we could just take a walk and get a cup of coffee and try not to bore each other.

And longest run-sentence ever. I’m sure I could say something about how he claims to be a master of the bedroom for I’ll leave that alone.

P.M.P Rule #47

NO SPEEDOS!

well thank you for your permission

I believe women should be feminine. You do not have to like sports, drink Guinness or bait your own hook. You can go shoe shopping, hit the nail salon and watch “Desperate Housewives” all you want. Just leave me out of it. When you get home, you will be kissed correctly and kissed often. If you smell great and got your nails done, that’s even better. Animal lovers welcome, smelling like an animal non-welcome.

cheeseburger, hold the pickles

I want to meet new people and have a great time doing it.
I would love to meet someone who is free-spirited, adventurous, and intelligent. She has to have a great sense of humor, loves life, and would love to travel the world…no past addictions please.

Okay. I’m going to judgmental for a moment. I don’t know why this bothers me. I feel like some of these P.M.P’s are just putting in an order for the girl they want, as if we were custom made to order at Walmart, just to meet their needs. Maybe because it’s all about them, or maybe because they seem clueless to me about what makes a real relationship, clueless about what women want or need.

The first P.M.P I was like that. When I was talking, he wasn’t hearing what I said, he was wondering if I would fit into his little world and how I would look in the niche he had created for the girl of his dreams. He was seeing me the way he wanted to and was upset when I wasn’t interested in being arm candy. (Upset enough to resort to namecalling, which is another post altogether, and really who can blame him when you’re this hot?)

I try not to ask this question often because, well I don’t like the answer. But seriously, this blog is thriving off the foolishness of “what’s left” out there. Scraping the bottom of the barrel! But really, is this all that is left?

I knew he was lying

Update on the Good Doctor, excerpt from an email….

Hey Queen, yes I still plan to move to the deep jungle if things don’t work out with us. No pressure. I must confess I’m not really a pilot though- I just said that to sound like a bigshot.

and also referenced here…

most generic profile ever.

Hello

Its been a long road, and I ‘m looking for the right women to make me happy. I am a laid back, and easy going person who just simply enjoys living life. I’ll try anything once, and love a good adventure, but at the same time enjoy staying at home..

Borrrring…..why are these guys so BORING! Seriously, I read two to three profiles just like this every day.

Speaking of ridiculously dull, got a date with the science geek next week. I figured I should give him a second chance and see if he might come out of his shell some. I must say I’m doubtful but I am going to try and go into it with an open mind. We’re going out for seafood so I’m excited about going to a nice seafood restaurant.
