Those of you who have done the online dating thing…surely you have also experienced the regular "email marriage proposals", right? I would once in a while get long emails of a guy's desire to marry someone from America, or looking for the perfect mate and knowing immediately from your profile – that you are the one for them. They then ask if you are interested in marriage… uhmmm, yeah, before they even meet you or have a phone conversation!!
So these things shouldn't surprise me, since I have done online dating and have experience with this. In addition, I wasn't surprised to get an instant message the other day from someone who still had my Hotmail email address from a contact we had made many months ago. Now, I knew we must have spoken briefly many months ago on a dating site, but I didn't even remember him; till he sent me his photo…and we had never went out. But before thirty minutes were up, he was instant messaging me…. "Do you believe in online marriage?" Yeah, I immediately 'blocked' him from sending any further messages without reply.
Ok, let's get real here. Surely, he was kidding… but I don't waste my time to find out because seriously who has time and because of a few other pretty unrealistic 'expectations' of sort that have taken place in my recent dating experience. One such experience was just a few weeks ago and I emailed a friend of mine about it…. So I saved the email following that week and will share it here as part of my blog entry.
Dating... Wow, you guys never cease to amaze me. ;)
This guy I saw Saturday night got mad and wouldn't tell me why. We went out on one date that night (a first date, mind you) and he then called me Saturday night later after I got home (at which time we talked) and
again Sunday, etc. ... finally I started getting a little annoyed...
but called him back on Tuesday and it was during this conversation he
said, "So where is this going?" Read more of this blog.....
