How NOT to date online, part 2

So, I was messaging this guy who, it turns out, works with a friend of mine. He described my friend as "the office Papa Bear and we all respect him as such."

I couldn't let that one go, so I messaged back: "Do you call him that because of his big, bushy beard, or because his bed is too hard? If it's the second one, I'd really like to hear how you know that."

He didn't ever write me back.

Come on, people. If you can't joke about incest or two straight guys fucking, what can you joke about?

I choose to believe that he just wasn't that into my looks or found someone else he liked better, because that quip was gold, baby. GOLD!

Sigh! You want a man who will appreciate you for who you are ... abandon hope all ye who enter that thought!

Amen, sister.

You're clearing a path through those who cannot meet the challenge. Continue double force!

Cec, I went on a date with a guy who actually gets my sense of humour and finds me charming. Seeing him again tonight. Never abandon hope.

a guy should totally get your sense of humour if he's worth anything... ;)

Chuffed I found your blog the other day (while researching Rock Chick reviews, incidentally. That's how one finds you. That - and German orthodontist fetishists, of course!).

Anyways, please do continue to spread the word of wisdom, as your readership in the Czech Republic, Europe are amused! :-) Zee

Thanks for dropping a line, Zee! It's a thrill to know I have readers in the Czech Republic. And good luck with the Rock Chick - you won't regret it!!

Zee said...

Hell yeah! I already know for sure I won't regret :-) And will defo come back to check this twee blog of yours for the latest on zombies etc.

Noticed you had taken a small break from blogosphere recently - it's good to have you back :-)

My kinda humour too, so would date you! Only... I am more into male geeks - with warped sense of humour, interest in zombies etc. What can you do :-)

Zee, you'll find this funny: You're the reason I ended up talking about the Rock Chick on a first date (with an amazing guy). I was talking about my blog and the fact that I had a reader in the Czech Republic. And it kind of went from there. I had to explain to him how the device worked, too. It was pretty hilarious, and not creepy at all. Too funny. So, thanks for the conversation topic ;)

And for the record, Cute Lawyer Dude was totally down with talking about incest in Canadian film.
