hi t. i do have adorable eyes, don't i? thank you for noticing.
re traveling, i'm not quite sure that's something special that we have in common or can bond over as i think about 99.9% of the people on this site enjoy traveling. it's one of those cliches like "i love walking on the beach" or "i want a partner in crime." purely a conversation starter and a pathetic one at that.
you, "where do you want to go next?"
me, oh, "i want to go to hoi-an."
you, "that's funny, me too. we should go together."
couldn't you ask if i like slugs? or if i know how to make a citizen's arrest? or what the mechanism is that makes febreze work so well? anything clever that would grab my attention... but instead i get "i see that you like traveling." well duh.
now i'm really impressed that you're willing to drive 120 miles for a date which i deduced from your profile as it says that you're looking for someone within 120 miles of monarch beach, california. well you may be willing, but i'm not willing to reciprocate, and sharing is the key to a successful relationship. ours would be doomed from the start.
this is especially true since your favorite "hot spot" is "south orange county." well i'm just not a fan of irvine (where the "chapter historian" - a governmental post - shall keep a running history of current fads and funny stories), mission viejo (where the chamber of commerce meetings are held at a mexican restaurant called tortilla flats), or san clemente (not only home of the san clemente sea monster but california's capital of ghost sightings).
oh, and for fun "anything active" as well as "fitness as a lifestyle is a plus" just doesn't fit with my "never exercise" and "nap as often as possible" way of life.
you're also 41 (too old), divorced (too many issues), looking for a girl who's at least 5'2" (i'm 5'1"), and want a non-smoker (i smoke). how did you miss all of these things in my profile? it states very clearly: i'm looking for a guy who's 34 - 39, never married, and that i'm a 5'1" smoker.
finally, i'm not going to speak for every woman, but you said "i want MY WOMAN to be genuine etc etc." who are you to lay claim to a woman? what woman is going to be YOUR WOMAN? are you seriously saying you will possess YOUR WOMAN? t., that is very offensive.
so here's what i suggest: find a passive, co-dependent woman who believes in ghosts, sea-monsters, and exercises to the point of insanity. that's where true love lies. you can thank me later for my advice.

It's not very often that one runs into a pretty girl who invariably snarks herself into celibacy and spinsterhood. Kudos. Well done and keep that bar sky high.
Hey. I came across your blog on blogsurfer.us and just spent 30 minutes reading your December posts. Have to say that I found myself laughing out loud more than once. I've never been on an online dating site, but I'm fairly certain that if I had been, my responses would be of the same ilk as yours, i.e., grammatical corrections, referrals to thapists, and a basic intolerance for the stupid, inane, and uninformed. A year to read a book? Please. Who are these men, and why can they not read a profile more closely before responsding? Do they believe that you will be swept away with their references to your smile and ignore the fact that they have three children living at home?
From one curmudgeon to another, thanks for an hilarious evening diversion. And by the way, jurassicpork belies his misogynistic tendencies in using the word spinsterhood. Please.
thank you so much poietes... your comment made my day!
