Some people are just freaks. This is something we must embrace and accept. However, we don't have to allow ourselves or our friends to date these people.
*above is a real picture- hope he isn't on match.com!
FREAKS...a definition...
Some are obvious (*see above), but others are sneakier more subtle freaks. See Exhibit A below. A friend of mine received this email from a guy on Match.com. His info is also below - Exhibit B
Exhibit A
It doesn't get much weirder for a first email than the one above.
Love? Wtf. The title of this email is not ok and might be the reason why you are still single...don't tell random girls you love them without meeting them. It is WEIRD and also not very funny.
"Old as Dirt"
How old is too old to date? When you are young, someone even a few years older seems ancient to you. At what point is it just all relative? Now I'm not saying I would date someone from Tales of the Crypt aka the 60 year old from my previous post, but hey this is nyc.
Guys here mature at a snails pace. 35 in NYC is basically like 25 for men in other suburban parts of the country. I don't want to date someone old as dirt, but age is nothing but a number right? That's at least what I keep telling myself when all these old guys ask me out!
I recently met a nice, "older guy" who seems like a gentleman (although he has had a few extra years of practice). He is 37, owns his apartment and seems like a catch...the only catch to guys this age is why aren't they already married? This may loop back to the fact that 35 in nyc is like 25 anywhere else...well time will tell I guess why this guy is single.
