A guy's story....
Wed, 08-03-2005 - 12:47am

So I was just talking to this guy on the phone that I met on match. We started talking about OLD. He had been in two serious relationships from Match. One for 3.5 and one for a year. He said that he liked OLD a lot but had one horror story.

This lady's picture was from years ago. She said she was 27 on her profile, but when they met up, she was more in her 40s. Said she had never been married and had no kids, but actually was divorced with 2 kids. When the date was over, she asked if he wanted to go back to her place. He declined, and she started crying.

Just thought it would shine some light on the guys perspective. He said he reviews a person's interests and looks for oddities that stand out. He liked my joke about oral hygiene and underwater basketweaving. After that he sends an email. In the email, he asks a couple of questions to get the ball rolling. With the responses he replies with something he thinks they may have in common. He said he really feels the person out. He then asks for a phone number. After a conversation, if it goes well, he will meet up with the girl. He said his biggest thing is if the girl gets his jokes. If she doesn't, then he says next.

This is lollybelle reporting from the unknown...the male mind and selction process!!!
