An Introduction

I have been a single fish in the big blue sea for just over five years now. I’ve tried meeting men in bars, at singles mingles, dance classes, and have even created online dating profiles with two different sites. Through all of these endeavors I have acquired several interactions with men who, unfortunately, fell short of what I am looking for. These stories can not be kept to oneself and thus have been told and retold to all of my friends and every new friend that joins our circle. My friends have been telling me for awhile now that I need to write a book or document these stories in some way so that they can be shared with others and so that we can all return to them whenever we are in need of a good laugh.

Some of these tales are old, some are from yesterday, some are long, some are short, and some aren’t about men in particular but are conversations between the ladies! I’ll write them all as they come to me…

Hi

So today I got two new emails to my PoF account. I was kind of excited and went to check them. But I have to admit these were the most disappointing emails ever.

The subject line for both of them were Hi. Not a bad start, I usually go with Hello so I can't really disagree with Hi for a starter. Then I opened the messages and both of them were simple and sweet and said "Hi."

Seriously, you finally get the courage to message me and the only thing you say is hi... twice?! No: how is your day going, your profile says you like the outdoors what's your favorite outdoor activity, you have a nice smile, I am super cool and you should message me because I am super cool.

The crappy part is I get at least one of these a week, and I delete them all. I don't even look at their profile. Such a let down!

    Maybe they watched the latest episode of Grey's Anatomy! Karev reminded his patient who had a crush on a gal that all he had to do at first was simply say hi. So maybe these guys are sweet and sentimental! :)
