Did I miss something ? Posted: 1/5/2007 7:20:50 AM
If you want more than friendship, looks do matter - sad as it is to say . . . especially online. I would have posted this sooner, but I couldn't bring myself to type the following line; I had to ask a female friend to do it for me. (By the way, if "he" happens to read this - she said to mention that she "absolutely didn't mind a bit". ) (Friend's typing) "Dark-n-Romantic" isn't receiving emails because the women he messages want someone better looking that him ? Are you serious ? (The confirmed homophobe, a/k/a: me, is now back in charge of the keyboard ). I assume what you meant was that the very nature of online dating sites allows those who seek to do so the opportunity to choose someone whose appearance is exactly (or at least extremely close to) what they're looking for - and that's fine - but you're overlooking one small detail; opting not to reply to a "genuine" overture of interest (allow me to clarify; "yo baby - you lookin' fine - wanna hook up ?" would be a good example of a non-genuine one ) is just plain rude. How long does it take to dash off a short acknowledgement ? I'm certain I get far fewer emails that you, Alicia (if you look hard enough you'll find a compliment in there ) but unless your inbox is bursting at the seams I can't imagine how taking less the 30-45 seconds it takes to offer even a perfunctory response could take up that much of your time. Then again, maybe I'm just out of touch; most people seem OK with the idea that the birth of the internet and the death of common courtesy seem to have occurred almost simultaneously. Or maybe tthings were always this way and I just never noticed. By the way, this was NOT about you; I've been meaning to write this for some time- all you did was motivate me to actually do so. If you'll all excuse me, it's been a pleasure but I have to get back to my cave now. Happy hunting (er, fishing) everyone - Sincerely, Chris

Excellent idea - something like this, for example ? * For a woman her age with two kids she's holding up well; though like all of'em she can be a bit frightening before that first cup of coffee. She gets pissed when you leave the lid up but she's usually a sport about it - unless it's that time o' the month, in which case things alot less significant than this could easily get a guy killed. She takes forever to get ready to go anywhere, but when she finally finishes whatever the hell it is she's doing in there, the results are impressive; no doubt about it, if we didn't work together I'd hit. Holds her liquor well - so if you're hopin' for a little action simply gettin' her bombed ain't gonna be enough. I hear flowers with a note sayin' something like "I really think you're special" usually do the trick, and everyone I've spoken to who'd know firsthand say droppin' a few bucks at the florist on this one is money well spent. - Speaking of which, for those of ya' on a budget, I hear one fella got all the way to "the holy city" with just the note; he's now sort of an idol among the rest of us. For those interested, if ya' email me I can send ya' a pretty thorough list of her "specialties"; they say she's as good as they get at "escaped convict and the warden's wife". Oh, yeah - almost forgot to mention - if ya' find yourself involved with her, be sure to work it into the conversation on your first date that yer birthday is due in just over a month; she's known to do damned near anything for ya on yer birthday (hehe). If you're wonderin' what to do if your b-day ain't due in a few weeks - WHAT ARE YA' DAFT MAN ? LIE ! If she finds out, so what ? After all - There's PLENTY OF FISH out there. * * * Is that what you had in mind ? It would take alot of the guesswork out of itl, but it would probably take most of the fun out of well; nah, I think I'd rather it stay the way it is now. They misrepresent, we embellish, they nag, we ignore and eventually we all settle for far less than we want, and everyone lives happily ever after. Now if you'll excuse me I have to get to church. I need to pray that the female members here are able to see all that in the humorous manner in which it was intended. - And to check with the Father on that opening at the monastery in case they don't. Happy fishing everyone. Sincerely, Your newest member
