Hello, My Name is Michael...

Thought I'd share my most recent message from my online dating pool. I think I only keep the thing going for the occasional giggle. Please note, this guy messaged me a few days ago, and I blatantly ignored his message. Of course, he took that to mean that he had simply not tried hard enough, and he put in a little extra effort. Enjoy.

"Hi, I'm Michael, and I would really like to
see if you might be interested in what I
have to offer as a man, friend, compaion
for life's journey. I'm a mature man who
doesn't drink, well maybe a drink or two on
New years, lol. Work six days a week, and
love my job. I'm a loving father who knows
family is really all that matters when it's all
said and done. I've gotten to the point
where I don't owe for anything, great credit,
and have goals that I'm still acheving. I
love restoring and painting old cars, mostly
muscle cars, which are my favorite. I love
the country way of life, but live in the city. I
have property where there's only green
fields of soybean or rows of corn growing
all around, that I hope to build my dream
home one day. I always try to keep
everyone laughing, and enjoy laughing till
I'm crying, lol. Would like to causally date,
no pressure and see if we can be great
friends first and then go from there. I've
tried it my way before in the past, with
rushing and bringing love making in too
soon, but this time would like to try it Gods
way. What have we all got to loose, right?
So if I interest you, I would love to hear
from you sometime soon. Untill then..." 

I am such a lucky girl.

Wow, God has a very specific way, apparently.

Right?! He was very Uncle Creepy-ish. Is it mean to say that? I don't even think God Himself could get this boy laid.

My sisters in law were just saying the other day how it was kind of sad when I got married because it brought an end to the entertainment of online dating. I met some great guys along the way, even married one, but we would spend hours laughing at the not so eligible bachelors.
I would probably pass on this one, unless of course, you are into God's way.

Ha! Thank you for reminding me why I haven't logged into my POF account in nearly a year! Try it god's way???

Holy fuck this is the funniest thing ever. What kind of response did he think he was going to get? Probably some kind of crazy stream-of-consciousness rambling back. Nice moves, though, bro. He has great credit, rows of corn and he's cool with not rushing into love making...which from this email, I'm pretty sure he sucks at.

But think about it - at least his crazy is all out there for anyone to see and not hidden from you, no sneaking up on you on the 3rd date with a story about painting old cars in the nude. Bullet dodged, girlfriend.

Oh gosh...that comment was funnier than the email from Michael!

I also really love that right after he talks about love making, he says - "what have we got to loose" instead of "lose." I think that's a classic Freudian slip. What he's saying is, "Hey, I'm a nice guy, we can take it slow...but I hope you're loose."
