Online Dating

 Online Dating

Well, it's been a month since I started online dating. Sooo, here are the results:

The Liars

The first woman I dated had good looking pictures on the website. We talked to each other a few times and everything was looking good. I asked her to lunch and she accepted. I got at the restaurant the same time as she. My first reaction was her hair. She had a strange color red on one side of her hair and purple on the other side with no hair in the back. When in the restaurant, she started to talk, and she had no teeth on the bottom half of her mouth - UGH.

Another woman said she was 67 years old. Again, her pictures were very good and the conversation by phone was great. I invited her out and she accepted. When she showed up, it was clear she wasn't 67 - she was a Bubby looking around 97. At her death at 90, my Bubby looked better. Another bait and switch.

A woman on the website texted me and we talked on the phone. After a few calls, we met, and she looked her age and just like her pictures. We got along great and she invited me for dinner. After dinner, I asked her about the four things I stated on the website; 1- interesting 2- loves to laugh 3- loves life 4- affectionate. The first three were on target, however hugging, kissing and ever letting me sleep with her was out of the question. Why would a woman go on a website looking for men and not ever expecting to at least hug and kiss?

The Crazies

I spoke to two women by phone. They both were crazy. I don't mean a little crazy - I mean Bat Shit Crazy.

The Almost

The last woman I was with, I really enjoyed everything about her. I didn't meet her online, I met her at a restaurant bar so I knew she was the real deal. We liked each other, but after a few dates, she seemed not too affectionate. I asked her about that and she said she was molested by her dad and raped by two guys when she was 16. Sooo, affectionate was not going to happen. We ended it as friends.

Even after all this, I'm still trying. I have a date tomorrow and another Monday. I almost gave up after the last one, but loving life so much, I want to find someone I can enjoy the rest of my life with - or at least a year or more. 

Sooo, if any of you are having trouble with your spouse, think twice about dumping him or her. Talk, Talk, Talk - go to couples counseling - look for what's good in the relationship not what's bad. 

Believe me it's a cold world out there on the web.
