Silly, silly me. After getting home late last night, I logged in to the dating site to reply to a message (read more about that below). As I was doing so, I received IMs from a variety of guys. Surprise, surprise, none were worth responding to. Here are some of the choice messages I received:
Guy (whose profile picture is just of his abs):
-
Hello
-
How are you ding?
-
*doing?
Me: closed the chat window
Guy #2 (whose username is a very non-sexy Disney Movie title):
-
Sadly you're not looking for casual sex. :(
Me: closed the chat window
Guy #3 (whose profile pic is him with a half naked male doll (or maybe it's an avatar?) posing next to him):
-
hi whats up, hows your night goin
Me: waited a moment to see if he'd correct the spelling of "going" but the realized he wouldn't (given he'd also forgotten an apostrophe and a question mark). Closed the chat window.
I sincerely doubt I would have responded to any of these anyway, but I was more interested in writing a message to Björn. Yes, Björn, not Bill, Bob, or Buster. You see, this gent is Icelandic, so I figured I should give him a genuine Icelandic name as his alias. Anyways, he messaged me over the weekend, right after I'd reactivated my account and I decided to write back. Now, seven or eight messages later, we're gearing up for a date tomorrow. I don't know that anything will come of it, but who knows?
