Online Dating?

Actually dating in general. Why is it so hard in this town?

It's rather comical to read all the profiles on dating sites and believe me I've read a lot. I've been on and off of match.com for it seems like forever now, and every profile seems to be just about the same. They all seem to have that "dance like no one is looking" quote, I'm hot & sexy (look at me in my underwear pics), I'm not a club girl (Half their pics are from Spyonvegas) I promise I'm not crazy, or I'm looking for a nice / normal guy, and some have all of these. Every person wants someone who makes 100k+ a year is over 6' tall and athletic and toned. Really?

Don't get me wrong I'm not judging it's just comical to me.

I am in no way perfect I put the fun in dysfunctional, I'm 33 divorced been single since the divorce 8 years ago. I've dated plenty just haven't found anyone that clicks, my ex is one of my best friends, I'm a large animal as I like to describe myself but I'm not lazy or a slob I go to the gym 4-5 days a week, eat healthy, I'm just a big guy, and I'm emotionally constipated. I'm one the nicest guys you'll ever meet, A great Father to my son, fiercely loyal, protective of the people I let in my life (not jealous don't confuse the 2) and most importantly not a douche bag. I'm in no way saying I haven't done douchie things in my life, we all have I just try and learn from them and not do them again.

Maybe the problem is that their are so many douche bags in this town that are only looking for a notch in their headboard. You know these people claim to be something their not just to try and impress someone, because their so insecure with their actual life that they can't be honest about who and what they are.

There is a profile an attractive woman has up and the pic is of her and her dog it's a cute pic. Her headline reads "I'm not a fat girl hiding behind my dog". Douche bags in this town actually email this obviously attractive woman and ask if she is a fat girl hiding behind her dog!! WTF!!!

I'm an open book ask me a question and I will answer it openly and honestly. There are things that I might skirt around, but that is because some things are way too personal to be let out, call it a demon or whatever but I will tell you it is something I'm not comfortable talking about. I'm not going to lie or exaggerate the truth about who or what I am to make someone like me. I am who I am take it or leave it.

This is my view on the subject.

  1. I tried match.com a few years ago...I met a really nice guy off of it. But the rest in all honesty just wanted a booty call. I think most guys thoughts are "A website where I can meet lonely attractive women? excellent"
