thought you guys might appreciate this...
Posted: Wed Dec 08, 2010 12:00 amMy cousin was checking her pof account and had me come read this guys profile to see what I thought. I told her that dude fucking rocks!
Here's the profile, I'm sure we all can relate!
[I]It's funny that when a person is good looking. People seem to appreciate what they say, overlook their rudeness and try and even convince that person that they are not like every other girl he has met. If that person is not good looking, they don't amount to anything. Of course this isn't the "real me," or is it? Do you think someone this good looking would need a dating site? Anyway, you're here, so read on some Life Lessons I've collected.
Did I get your attention?
Well, with the couple of months that I've been internet dating, I've learned a few things. Women see the dating websites like a buffett, where they can look but not sample. It's a funny thing about the internet age, people can act as rude as they possibly can and hide behind their computer monitors. Not answer emails to even say Hello. Or they email and start conversations only to not respond and dissappear when they've received a return email. Basically they act like they are superior over all of the other Male species out there. There are many women that treat this like a game and they rack up as many points as possible from guys that show some interest, only to blow them off and somehow, these serpents get their kicks by doing this. Ladies, the guys won't always come around calling, so take advantage of the opportunities now.Women like that, remind me of the Junior Honor Society in High School. I want to snub all of these guys that are beneath me, because I am so special, I am so Hot, I am "Better." You ladies will be the ones that are holding out for Mr. Right while putting your make-up on with a puddy knife and wearing a mini skirt and cowboy boots at age 70. We've all seen her.
Now, speaking for all of the guys out there, the Hot ones and the normal everyday Joe's. Give us a break, you never know what perfect friend, what awesome lover, what wonderful husband is just beyond your computer screen. A book really can't be judged by its cover. Time to create a conversation, you know, the kind that's beyond one sentence. "OMG, is he really saying that?" So put down your Lean Cuisine ladies and go out, be nice, play nice, without the games and have fun.
Now, as I am often reminded (daily), I know its a two-way street and there are some shallow and rude guy's out there. Some that do the same thing that I've described,some even stand girls up on dates. I can't speak for those guys, but keep in mind 99% of the time, you ladies hold the cards and can give the thumbs up or down as to whether a first date will happen. And usually if a guy emails you, he's interested, so at least give him the courtesy of a no-thank-you.
As for me...I'm hoping to take it one step at a time and develop a relationship with someone special and hopefully it will lead to something long term. I've concentrated on work most of my life, now its time to slow down and travel and see the world. I'd love someone to share that with. By the way, I'm shy at first, so I don't always make the first move. Plus, I may take a break for a while...
Update, I have a good friend, an Average Joe. He's tried contacting many of the girls that have later contacted me. He receives no response. It's sad. Do you get so many emails that you can't say Hello, or Thanks, but no thanks. Would you expect to be ignored? How does that make you feel? Class means treating others as you would want to be treated. Think about it.
Finally I'll leave you with some online dating advice:
1) Never put a picture of yourself and your girlfriends on your profile, if any of your girlfriend's are prettier than you. Guy's will automatically zero in on the hottest and when we find out it's not you, its a bit of a let-down and we move on. Inside the working of a guy, if we see a row of 10 girls, we'll concentrate on the prettier one. sorry, looks matter even to you women, we get shot down enough, we'll then go to th hair color we prefer or whether she has one child or 10 and then we'll read your profile, lol. Sorry, guys are wired differently, if you don't care to look good in your pictures, then you'll probably look lousy on the date.
2) Never put a picture of you and your kids on your profile, here on a free dating site. There are some attractive pedifiles out there too. Don't risk you and your kids safety.
3) Don't get hacked off if you don't receive a reply, a guy should be polite, but remember you ladies do it daily. I still think the "Thanks but no thank you" button is needed.
4) Don't include shots of scenery or sunsets, put more pics of you. We've seen a sunset and we're not dating a mountain. Don't include shots of you and a guy, are we suppose to compare ourselves to someone else from the very start? Also, don't include pics of you from a mile away from the lens. What is that suppose to tell us, you have legs?
5) Give a little more description of yourself in your profile, but don't make it four volumes long. Remember, we're more visual. BTW, girls that make faces at the camera, don't, we understand you have a sense of humor, but an unflattering pic is still an unflattering pic and it makes us move on. A guy always appreciates a pretty smile. Think of the movie "Somewhere in Time" and what if Jane Seymour's portrait was cross-eyed with her tongue out or with an orange peel in her mouth?
6) If you put the down-the-blouse shot on your profile, then you'll gain attention, but is it the attention you really want. A guy will think, hey, she's willing to show them here, I'll see the rest on the first date. Forget that, I like those pics. If you got them, show them.
7) If you send out a list of all the things you don't want, then you'll guess what type of a girl us men think you'll be and most of the time, you will be and we'll move on.
8) 20-30 lbs overweight may be Average in the US, but not on a dating site.
9) You can include pics of dogs, but we'd prefer more of you, preferably recent ones of you..
10) Pics of just your face will tell us you're ashamed of your body.
11) Include current pics, don't date for money or a free dinner, be nice and if you're not interested, just say Thanks, but no thank you.
12) By the way, don't start a conversation saying you want to go out and then disappear. Don't tell a guy on a date that you'd like to go out again and then never reply again. This is not High School, treat other's like you would want to be treated.
If this offends you in any way, I apologize. All of us have been hurt out there in our marriages. Its time to not carry on the hurt and take it out on a potentially great person. By the way, read this sentence. I am the Average Joe and I might be an ex-print ad model from CA, relocated to TX or a faceless, nameless, invisible average-looking guy. Which attracted you to me, my looks or my words and wisdom? I wish you all the very best.[/I]
