There have already been two disappearing acts on that site, and I'm really tired of jerks getting my hopes up like that.

I guess he's looking for a fan more than a girlfriend.<br /><br />How nice that boys leave naked pictures of themselves. <br /><br />I don't have high hopes for this site. But keep trying because it just takes one right person. And on your next date, you should laugh about these dating services.

But it's turned into a (mostly) good way for me to meet new people, partly because I'm shy; it's much easier to send an e-mail to a guy than to go up to him in person. And I try to get to know them before the first date; we usually exchange at least three or four e-mails and talk on the phone a couple times before meeting in person.

But I think it is important for people to say at least a little bit about themselves, because that way they'll stand out to potential matches. I read the guys' profiles; sometimes what the guys write in their profiles makes me want to e-mail them and meet them in person. Reading about what they're looking for also helps me figure out whether or not we would be a good match.

But I thought that maybe there were some nice guys too; I hope that I'll get to meet at least a couple of the nice guys.

In the end, I basically just wrote down what I did for a living, what my interests were, and what I was looking for in a guy. <br /> I think I will write a book about all of this; right now, writing sounds a lot more fun than dating.

If I asked my husband to describe himself he'd have no clue what to say. <br />I think a book based on your experiences would be great! What a cool idea. :) Rachel Schieffelbeinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01629400142880123520noreply@blogger.com
