Here is another one of my TMI files where I slag off at the female population for thinking me not good enough - or is it?
After registering on a dating site on the internet (yes, I had to have a go so that I could say that I did make an attempt to meet someone) and contacting somewhere around 50 individuals (kept records), I have finally found a single female on this site that is capable of telling the truth - or at least expressing an opinion.
I've met many before this day who are able to do this and if I say something dumb then they tell me - that is what I like: honesty. Unfortunately, most are seemingly incapable of doing this. They *say* they do, but we all know that actions speak louder than words.
Of course, said female still isn't interested in me but that doesn't matter because at least she had the intestinal fortitude to say so and to give a hint as to how I could make things better for myself. That, dear Ladies, is what you call a genuine person!
Dammit... I just remembered that there was another on this site that spoke the truth as well. OK - make that 2. Two out of fifty? Not great odds, is it? Does it mean anything when the blatantly obvious Russian Bride Scam artists don't even write back? :)
In any case, I have taken pause and are now considering my next move based on the information I have been given - which, surprisingly, is the same as that given me by the first one who gave me feedback: "You are too full on."
When I work out what this means, I'll try to do something with it.
I thought that a bloke being "full on" with a new bird is the one who is professing love and devotion and talking about the names of the kids and what colour the bathroom will be painted after you've been talking for maybe 5 minutes. I really fail to see how I could frighten someone when all I do is speak freely and don't bullshit - maybe it's the quantity that I write?
Oh well - who cares. I tell myself that a woman who is put off by a bloke who does more than sits around scratching his nuts and grunting probably won't hang around for long anyway. Just remember this the next time you're trying to impress your friends about what kind of bloke you think you deserve - if you mention "can string together a coherent sentence" - you're lying! (No? Prove me wrong! Win-Win for me, I say >:)
The upside of all of this is that I have gone back to dance classes (Salsa, Merengue, Cha Cha) and am enjoying it immensely. What's even better is that there are about 10 women there to maybe 3 blokes :) All different ages and sizes and such but I don't care as all are friendly and it's great to see a smile when I get something right.
Apparently, I've also been asked to bring along some "cute guys" so that there are more blokes there for the women to dance with. HELL, NO! If I knew where the cute guys hung out, I'd be selling their locations to the gay blokes so that I can make some cash on the side. Also, the standards of the women are lower when there isn't much choice there in partners - better for me :)
I think I just answered the "full on" question as well.... :/
