Online Dating Rant

Mission –
1 Average looking, smarter than average, bigger than average girl looking for 1 man – doesn’t matter what he looks like as long as he’s attractive (to me), has good hygiene, is smart and very funny.

What does Average Girl do? This average girl signed up for 2 dating websites and has found that the men who say they want “someone to talk to, a nice girl, not full of herself” are looking for Mother Teresa’s spirit in the body of Pamela Anderson. Here’s the problem: Mother Teresa is dead (God rest her soul) and Pamela Anderson might as well be. Harsh, I know. But that woman is a ball of drama, including several failed marriages, an STD and a floundering body as well as career. I’m not here to hate on Pamela Anderson though, because as hard as she has it, the fact that she can still go out there and try – well she deserves some credit.

I know I’m generalizing when I say this (as my friend Steve would be so happy to point out – but then again he’s not this guy I’m talking about) and it’s not like I’m searching for Brad Pitt sans the tribe. I’m looking for a good Christian man, with good character, a good sense of humor and good hygiene. I’ve gone to churches and met guys. Honestly, it’s almost a negative thing to be a Christian man to me now, because I’ve been burned by so many so-called Christian men. But I digress.

Here’s my rant. Why don’t guys respond to me when I try to contact them? What about me is so unattractive that not only will you(to guys) not reply; You don’t even show me the courtesy or respect to reply and tell me you’re uninterested?

Ok, major burn here guys – you’re not that amazing that I’m sitting and waiting for you.

But a true test of character is how you carry yourselves away from prying eyes, even on the Internet. And most of you guys are failing. I’ve had 2 guys out of the 15 that I’ve winked at tell me they’re not interested. I’m glad. Because I know! What about the others? Nothing.

What does all of this tell me? That some guys lie on their profiles (yeah big news development right?) and that not only do they lie, but their so-called pursuit for a meaningful relationship is complete bullshit. And I’m calling you on it.

To all you guys out there who do reply even to say they’re not interested, who truly seek a good, meaningful woman and relationship, believe me, there are girls out there just like the guys above. Keep searching, I have amazing friends who are amazing Women looking for a Man. You’re our hope. Let us be yours.

Peace!
