Stupid dating site.
Edited on Wed Apr-16-08 04:16 PM by billyskank
Hmph. I can't find a date in the offline world so maybe I should try a dating site, reasoned I. That will probably be filled with other people who also have trouble finding dates in the offline world, or people who are looking for something you don't find every day.

But nobody ever looks at me there either. Apparently I'm not good enough for people who use a dating site either.

It's enough to make me want to give the whole world the middle finger. And I would, if I had a middle finger that was sufficiently large to tell the whole world to swivel on it.

:rant:

3. I think it must be either
(1) Everyone in the world is nuts except me.

(2) Everyone in the world is sane except me.

:crazy:

Seriously, though, what about another online dating site?

7. Meh. I haven't got the heart any more.
I should look for a quiet life in a monastery or something.

14. Hmm...
Find a female friend who you trust the opinion of...have them critique the profile text. Sometimes we forget that some things which are true and funny may come across poorly to people who don't know us.

Or it could be the site...some of them really suck balls overall(eHarmony); some are only good for certain niches(OkCupid, the assorted Spring St. Networks sites on Nerve, the Village Voice, Salon.com, etc.), if you're outside the niche you're not going to have luck there.

16. What might work.....
Casual sex sites. Done that and ended up in long term relationships. Personal ads.

Also rather than what you want, say who you are.


And we kinda know each other..... you are good looking and a cool guy. Any girl who wouldn't agree to at least a first date is too dumb to bother with.



My 2 cents.

Khash.

22. Hey billyskank!
I haven't been around when you are because
1) finding the right job took time
2) now I've got to find the time to do everything that I always did plus work
3) my doctor has me on a new drug and I'm awfully tired. I'll adjust in time.
