Damsel In Distress? July 18, 2011

I swear, some of the messages I get on these sites are just asinine!  The idiots guys must think that all women (or maybe just me) are really stupid and more than willing to believe anything that is written.  I can’t tell you how many messages I’ve gotten that resemble this one:

I enjoyed reading your profile. We have a lot of things in common that each of us would find desirable in someone we are seeing. Though when I wrote out my profile, I didn’t list all those characteristics, I focused on the a few non-traditional aspects, slaying dragons. I am sending you a note inviting you to read my profile. When I get a message from you, I guarantee you will have given me a reason to smile.

Really?  You’re telling me what I would find desirable in someone who I’m seeing?  Even though you didn’t bother to list all these ever elusive, yet apparently highly compatible qualities?  Yeah, I highly doubt it you big dipshit being as you’re 54 and apparently didn’t bother to see that I currently have my cutoff at 49.  I’m certain he didn’t send this exact same message to 50 other women today either.  Although the dragon slaying is beyond retarded (I have visions of him playing Dungeons & Dragons in his dimly lit basement), I’m going to have to take a pass.  Thanks for playing though…….

Damn I’m in a bad mood today ……..

    Sometimes I think babbling to myself in a corner would be more gratifying than reading some of the messages I’ve gotten in the past. I’ve deleted-deleted my profiles now. No more disable them “just in case” Tells you about my experiences right there. One of us needs to be successful here. I’m counting on you! Dragon-slayers… not ok.

    • Haha, you’re funny Victoria. Babbling in a corner… good for you for taking your profiles down. I am doing my best to make you proud, however I think you may have bet on the wrong horse in this race 😦

    The only thing I liked about his message was the dragon slaying comment.

    Though, I did play Magic as a kid. 😉

    49??? That’s way too old for you? What has happened?
    His message is one of those that are in the lowest ranks. Of course.
