I've got what???

I reposted my profile last week and decided that it is definitely time to move on. I've gotten several winks and a few nice emails, but nothing that really rings my bell yet. I did have 2 dates date over the weekend with a guy that I went out with a few times in the Spring. We had a great time and have a date set again for the 6th. Plus, he's starting to look for a new Harley and asked me if I'd like to have some input on it (how comfortable the passenger seat is), because he hoped I'd ride with him some. HECK YEAH!!!

Anyhooo... I emailed a guy who had sent me his number a few weeks ago because I noticed that he had been browsing me recently. I told him that I had just gotten back online and wondered if he was still interested in communicating and sent him my number. He called the same night and the conversation was very strained and very strange. I felt no connection with him at all and really felt that because he'd been divorced for 20 years and he was 43 that that was not a good sign for me. I'm 7 years older than him, but I was willing to bend a little. After thinking about it and just not wanting to take it any further (he asked if he could call the next night) I emailed him the next morning and I told him that I didn't think we would be a match and thanked him for calling..etc.

That evening I received this response.. "after thinking about what you said, you're right, we probably aren't a match...You seem to have an inbred aura about you, so F- you"

WTF??? I've got what?? You try to be nice to people and they retaliate like that. I didn't want to be rude and just not take his call. But, I guess next time that's what I'll do. But in the meantime, where do I go to get rid of the "inbred aura"? I hope it's not something terminal.

Libra, you might need an exorcism for this affliction....oh wait, you got rid of the guy--I take it back, affliction gone!

Could you e-mail him and ask him to define 'inbred aura'? I'm a little confused as to what it really entails!

You've got that right, I got rid of that affliction....I kicked that 'boy' right to the curb!!!

I don't deal with 43 year olds who have temper tantrums, hence the term 'boy'. Which might just be the reason he's been single for 20 years.

LOL I've heard some stupid insults, but telling you that you have an "inbred arua" is a new one on me.

Look at it this way- all it did was confirm that your radar is up and running quite nicely! You caught this one very early and you can take comfort knowing that YOU have class and grace. Now if you could just shake that aura... :)

Oh you are so right, my radar was in perfect working order that time.

Actually, I think my class and grace are what he deemed my aura. He knew he was out of my league and tried to turn it back on me. He lost.

Libra,

Gee that sounds nasty.....do you think some antibiotics would do the trick? LOL! Better yet, take two aspirin and call me in the morning. WTF???? What rock do these people crawl out from under? I sure wish they would crawl back.

That one crawled out from under a rock in Georgia (he's new to this area) and personally I think he needs to go back. He was cuuuuuntry as they come. Thinking about it, I was kind of reminded of Cousin Eddie in Christmas vacation. LOL!!

Ohfortheloveofpete!!!!!!

An Inbred Aura? I hope it isn't contaigeous. Are there open sores involved with this affliction?

PUH-LEEEEEEEEEZE!!!! You know, I have sent one kind of mean/hurt email ONCE when I got a "I'm persuing another relationship" email, but only because the guy really mislead me and lied about many things. Even then, I did not swear or name call. Just told him he had been very unfair and I was better off without him.

This guy, you are right, is a little boy. Think of how much better you would have felt about him, even maybe to consider a get together in the future, if he had responded in kind with graciousness and a thank you for the nice phone conversation.

Dumba$$. :)

Good grief. That is just an awful thing to say someone. I bet someone said that to him - that's where he got it. I'm sorry and glad at the same time. True colors came out early in this case.

You are so much better than that and you know it. Onward and upward!

Look, he's just a creep. We can't take words more seriously just because they are written.
