So, I’ve been busy.
Maybe too busy to keep the online thing going on, but I hate to drop
it. I rather like the diversion, and
after a couple of weeks of crickets, I received three messages in the past 24
hours. Okay, two don’t have pictures
posted (drrr), but the other is one I’ve been communicating with on a limited
basis. I’m sad to realize that one guy
(who I’d called my Sherpa) has removed his listing from OKCupid. I don’t think we’d have ever met for real (he
was the one who recognized me when I was out and about), but I can’t help
feeling rejected in a small way. He at
least could write beyond an 8th grade level and had a sense of humor. Which brings me to things that annoy me:
One question/one word posts.
“Hi.” “You’re sexy,
do you like slow kisses?”
Okay, I get it; you don’t have any recent pictures of
yourself. Maybe you might consider at
least holding the camera up toward your face vs. up shooting so we can see your
nostrils or better, taken in the bathroom mirror. Creepy.
No
photo (thank you Melani!).
Really? Dumbass, who
wants to talk to someone who isn’t willing to share a pic?
Posts that are just
this side of being violated.
One guy was all about performing oral sex on women. I guess,
based on his message, he’s Mister Control at work (managing and bossing around
“100s of people”), but in his personal life he just wants to be Mister
ICanPleaseU. Shades of Penthouse Forum. Slurp.
I’m so, so glad I have not signed up for a pay-service (yet). Learning on a free scale gives me a clearer
view of what to expect at Match or eHarmony. I take it all with a grain of salt, wonder if
anything of substance will ever happen with these so-called connections and,
well, am enjoying the ride.
