That noise you just heard? Yeah, that was my head exploding. I love being sick. It's my favourite thing to be besides, well...not sick. I've been a little pathetic the last few days. My nose is running, my eyes are watering, my ears are popping and my sinuses are building little concrete walls I think.
So, a few weeks ago, on a certain social networking site, I had a guy message me. People tend to use this site as more of a dating service than anything else it seems. He asked how I was and if I was single. I went and looked at his profile and was completely turned off my his lack of punctuation, spelling, sentence structure, etc. Is this wrong of me? I don't even want to message this guy back because of the way he types. But I also don't like ignoring people, so I message him back saying that I'm fine, yes, I'm single but that I'm not looking for a relationship from this website. Eventually he stops talking.
3 days ago he messages me again. It goes a little something like this:
Him: how are you doing today
Me: Not too bad, thanks.
Him: not to bad so are you single
Me: Um, yes...but I'm not looking for anything.
Him: that is gud (really??) so where do you live me i live in ____
Me: I'm in Canada...we talked before.
Him: yep so what type of guy are u looking for
Me: I'm not. I'm not looking for a relationship from here.
Him: i know that jest want to no
I haven't answered him back. If you can't, or won't listen to what I'm saying, there's no point.
A couple more that I've gotten:
'Hey, I like making new and sweet friends.' It's not a *bad* message, it just...it's weird.
This is a very first message sent by someone:
'Hi angel how wonderful your look You 'er very beautiful in your profile picture. I wonder how you look physically. Dear can we be soul mate I want to know everything about you and i think i can no longer do any other thing without thinking of you. Ever since i saw your profile you have remained in my thoughts my heart has found in you i look forward to getting a beautiful and lovely reply from u'
Woah. You wonder how I can look physically? Well my picture is just staring you right in the face. He has no idea who I am but he can no longer do any other thing without thinking of me!!! I feel so blessed. And creeped out. He wanted a beautiful and lovely reply from me. Instead he got silence. Guys, get a clue. Girls don't want to see this from a stranger. It doesn't flatter us. It makes us go 'what the hell is this guy on?' Also, I understand that people can't always be the worlds best typist. I know people who I can have perfectly good conversations with in person or on the phone, yet online it's like trying to decipher the damn Da Vinci Code. I can overlook some typo's and mistakes, but come on, it's not that hard to know where to put a period or question mark. Put some effort into it!!
Alright, my eyes feel like they're trying to fall out of my head, so I'm done for today. I have another one to show you guys, but it's kind of long, so he gets one all to himself tomorrow. Or whenever I get back on here.
