Although I’m no longer technically “active” on the on-line dating website, the messages continue to pour in. They’re amusing, if nothing else. Every so often, some random man who’s upset by my profile will send an incredibly angry message. A man in his early 60’s sent me one the other day, but (unfortunately) I deleted it. From this point on, I’ve decided to keep them and share them here on my blog, to give you a glimpse as to what type of men are out there in the “dating” world.
The following message is not a rant, but once in awhile, these type of messages come through as well. Nicely written, I suppose, but it makes me wonder how many women actually take him up on his offer!
Hi There!
I’m ****. I’m originally from Europe. I live in San Francisco and work in the East Bay.
I’m smart, intelligent, very well-educated, very well-traveled, successful, etc., etc., etc.
I’ll be very honest in what I’m looking for. I’m looking for a woman, who’s older than me, to be my friend and lover.
I really liked your profile, and you look great.
Is this something that would be enjoyable for you and that you would consider?
Thank you.
****
P.S. I’m not comfortable posting pictures on this site, but you can see them here:
