Who says there\'s no quality women online?
About 2 months ago I made a profile on www.plentyoffish.com, a free dating site. Of course, I'm much too lazy to cold message people. My profile is basically a bunch of complete BS/dumb stuff I either made up or stole from this thing. I included some decent pictures. FWIW I'm 31, decent looking, in decent shape, no kids, have my own house.
To date I received 9 cold messages. The first, oddly, I almost went out with, but she flaked on my phone call and didn't get back to me til two weeks later saying she was "really busy" and I passed on that; since her profile has been deleted. Here's the rest, and their cold open message. I've responded to one of them. You might be able to guess which one. And no it never went anywhere [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] -----  Subject: hey I thought your profile was great, let me know if your interested.. xxx -----  Subject: Love... your About Me section!!!! And that pic of you sleeping with your kittie is adorable!

I love my dog and would really like to do more things that involve vacationing and getting a more relaxed piece of life. I am career oriented and work really hard, but I still know how to have a good time. I am looking for someone like that, who can make money but knows when it is time to have fun!!! Not only do I know how to have a good time, but I love to live in the moment, I am not a planner and do not want to watch time go by while everybody else is enjoying it. I prefer to communicate rather than fight, and I try really hard to do right be everybody that I know and am involved with from day to day. I am 26, and woke up one day and realized that life was not about the money that you have but by the people you surround yourself with, and with that comes opportunity. Subject: HMMM.....

Wouldn't it be funny if yours was a pink paperclip like mine? Friends call me the 'funniest female they know'. I'm working on the funniest person..females always get the bad 'rap. I'm a middle school guidance counselor...love my job...and get to be goofy like they are all day. How would your friends and coworkers describe you? Hope to hear from you, xxx

Re: Who says there\'s no quality women online?
Im guessing you picked one of the blonde girls.
1st one might be a crazy killer id go with the 2nd one. Actually, 2nd one might be equally as crazy but at least she is "stable" enough to hold a job.

Re: Who says there\'s no quality women online?
Vehn,
Thankyou for posting this. It has clarified my point of view regarding dating services in general. I read the first one and thought holy cripes, this is awful, it must get better. Nope, apart from the blonde of course. Can anybody explain to WTF it is with women choosing pictures of themselves with their children??
